The mansion was quiet, with only the soft hum of the night settling over it. But in Macau’s room, the silence was broken by the sound of restless shuffling and muffled whimpers. Macau tossed and turned in his bed, his brow furrowed in distress as his nightmare pulled him deeper. The memories of his trauma were hard to escape, even in sleep.

From the other side of the hallway, Pete and Vegas were just settling in for the night when they heard the faint sounds. Vegas was the first to sit up, his ears sharp to any sign of discomfort from Macau.

“Did you hear that?” he whispered, his voice tense with worry.

Pete nodded immediately, already out of bed. Without a second thought, they both made their way to Macau’s room, opening the door quietly. There he was, curled up under his blankets, his face twisted in fear as he mumbled incoherently in his sleep.

“Macau,” Pete whispered, kneeling beside the bed and gently shaking his shoulder. “Hey, it’s just a dream.”

Macau’s eyes flew open, wide with panic. For a moment, he looked disoriented, but then his gaze focused on Pete and Vegas, standing protectively by his bed. Tears welled up in his eyes, and he reached out for them without saying a word.

Vegas didn’t hesitate. He scooped Macau up in his arms, holding him close as if he were a fragile child. “It’s okay, it’s okay, we’re here,” he murmured, rubbing circles on Macau’s back to soothe him.

Pete stroked Macau’s hair softly, exchanging a look with Vegas. “Why don’t you sleep in our room tonight?” Pete suggested, his voice gentle but firm.

Macau hesitated for a moment, biting his lip as if unsure. “Can I?” he asked in a small voice, his eyes glistening with unshed tears.

“Of course,” Vegas replied immediately, tightening his hold on Macau. “You can stay with us as long as you need.”

From that night on, it became a routine. Every time Macau had a nightmare, he would find his way to Vegas and Pete’s room—or more often, they would come to him before he even asked. Soon, they just started having him sleep in their bed every night

It was early morning, and Macau lay sprawled across the bed, his head resting on Pete’s arm while Vegas sat on the edge, gently pulling a blanket over him. The bed had become a comforting place where Macau felt safe, shielded from the fears that haunted him.

“Still sleeping,” Pete whispered with a small smile, watching Macau’s chest rise and fall peacefully.

“Let him sleep as long as he needs,” Vegas murmured, brushing a strand of hair out of Macau’s face. His eyes softened every time he looked at him, and his protective instincts flared every time Macau showed even the slightest sign of distress.

Throughout the day, Vegas and Pete’s attentiveness became even more obvious. Pete would carefully prepare Macau’s favorite meals, cutting everything into bite-sized pieces before handing them to him. Vegas wouldn’t let Macau out of his sight for too long, always keeping a close eye on him, whether they were in the living room or out in the garden.

“Are you okay?” Vegas would ask, even when Macau was just sitting quietly. He’d hover nearby, always ready to step in and comfort him.

At first, Macau resisted the extra attention. “I’m not a kid,” he’d say with a cute pout, crossing his arms. But deep down, he enjoyed how much they cared. The way Pete would drape a blanket over his shoulders when he sat on the couch, or how Vegas would constantly check if he was comfortable, made him feel cherished.

One night, Macau woke up again from a bad dream, breathing heavily and staring into the darkness. But before he could even call out, Vegas rolled over, gently pulling Macau close. “Shh, you’re safe,” he whispered without even opening his eyes, as if he already knew. Pete, on the other side, wrapped an arm around both of them, cocooning Macau in warmth and security.

And with that, Macau sighed softly and fell back to sleep, cradled between the two people who had become his fiercest protectors.
