Insomniac

Summary: Fan is up all night using his phone.

~ Fan's PoV ~

My phone rang at 3 in the morning, I check the notification center and wow, that's a lot of comments... I fell in love with the attention I got from these people, so I respond from their comments.

It was really addicting to see the notifs I got. I got 40 subscribers in one day! I'm so happy!!! I check my DMs and my friends online were asking when's my next FFF episode.

I got done from checking my DMs and notifs, so I decide to watch YouTube for a little.

I was bored and I couldn't even sleep. Now that is a reasonable excuse to use your phone at midnight.

I decided to post on Twitter, about my insomnia and how I'm happy for not being able to sleep because I get to respond to my fans in time.

After posting that, I went back to doing some thing like playing Honkai: Star Rail so I can finally speedrun it and finish the whole game.

I just had a very relaxing sleep... Until my idiotic husband disturbed me which made me wake up. I turned around to tell him to stop pissing me off, but as soon as I saw him, he was using his phone. At 3 AM.

"What are you doing up?" I ask him. He froze in shock, looking at me in surprise that I was awoken.

"Uh... I was uh... Looking at the time..." He lied.

"Well, I heard sounds... So you're lying." I then confiscate his phone, making him try and reach it.

"Hey! That's mine!" He starts whining like a toddler having his candy taken away.

"Oh, shut up you big baby!" I reply as I hold the phone out of his reach and then I began to scroll through his tabs list of apps.

"Hey, that's private! Give it back!" The flustered fan shouted in frustration.

While I scroll through his phone and see exactly what he's been up to, my interest piqued.

"So, what were you doing instead of sleeping, darling?" I ask with a hint of suspicion in my face.

Fan's face reddens as if he's been caught in the act, while he stammers out, "I- I was just..."

He seems to be at a loss for words, trying to come up with a believable excuse.

I rose an eyebrow at him and reply, "Just what? Watching cat videos at 3:00 AM? Don't lie to me."

He sighs, knowing that he's been caught in his lie."

"Fine, I was... Replying to my fans' comments and I was... Playing a game." He reluctantly admits.

I shook my head in disappointment and firmly reply, "Seriously? You were playing a game at 3 AM? You know that we've talked about this before. You need to stop spending so much time on your phone, especially at an absurd hour!"

"But I was having insomnia this late at night..." He claims, feeling distressed after being caught using his phone.

I let out a sigh, feeling a little bit if sympathy and concern for him. "Insomnia, huh? Why didn't you wake me up? You know I should've stayed up and comfort you if you said so instead of using the phone..." I ask, as I still hold on to his phone.

He looked down, ashamed and guilty. "I didn't want to disturb you..." He answered. "You always complain when I try to wake you up..." He quietly adds.

My expression softens and I reply to him, "True, but that doesn't mean you should resort to using your phone, playing games and talking to your fans in the middle of the night."

I sighed. But I still tried to make him listen to my advice. "You know very well that that is not very healthy if you to do. You should've just told me that. I'd rather lose some sleep than to let you become sick from insomnia and abusing your screen time." I try my best to sound understanding towards him.

"I know... I'm sorry..." He said with puppy eyes.

I roll my eyes at this and then I decided to let him have his phone back. "It's alright... Next time, just wake me up so I can make you fall asleep or find different methods to have some sleep for once."

The now sleepy fan nodded apologetically, taking back his phone. "I promise I won't do it again. I'll wake you up next time or I'll find different ways to get some rest..." He promised with a solemn nod.

"Good." I smiled. "Now, get some rest now, honey. I don't want you to get sleep deprivation."

"Good night, Test Tube..."

"Alright... Good night, Fan..."

I put my sleeping mask back on as we went back from our slumber. Luckily, Fan finally got to sleep peacefully. I'm so proud of him!!!
