Still made from this fic generator: http://dreamsaboutbts.tumblr.com/post/143808518458/drabble-game
I got these:
A) "Then why are you scared?"
B) On the subway
C) talking
D) Build-a-bear
I had a difficult time thinking of a plot that'd include these 4 things, so sorry if it's bad.

"Hey, lads." Alph sat down on the hotel bed the two six year olds were sharing. "You two excited to go to the zoo tomorrow?"
Ant and Dec enthusiastically nodded their heads.
"Me, too." Alph smiled at the two who were both snuggled in bed, ready to get some rest for their big day at the zoo.
He and Anne had taken Ant and Dec to London for a little holiday. Christine couldn't make it since she couldn't get out of her work, but she had allowed Ant to join the Donnellys. Alph and Anne didn't mind bringing Ant since their son was very fond of him; the two are inseparable.
"Anyway, I came in to tell you what we're gonna do tomorrow, so you two have to listen carefully, okay?"
"Okay, Daddy!"
"Got it, Mr. D."
The boys answer at the same time.
Alph chuckled. "Good. So tomorrow we're gonna wake up early to get some breakfast, then after that we're gonna on the Underground and take the subway."
Alph paused when Dec let out a big yawn.
"You sleepy, bud?"
"Sorta, Daddy?" Dec sleepily rubbed his eyes.
"Okay, I'll make this quick then. Like I said, we're gonna go on the subway tomorrow. It can get a bit busy there. There's gonna be lots and lots of people trying to get on and off the train; it'll be difficult to find you two small boys in a sea of big people if you get separated from us. So to avoid losing one of you, you two have to hold either on my hand or Mam's hand. Do you understand, lads?"
"Yeah, Mr. D," Ant replied. Dec just nodded.
Alph attributed Dec's sudden quietness to being tired. "Okay, well, I'll let you two sleep now." He kissed both boys on the head. "Decky, me and Mam will be sleeping in the next room if you need anything. Same goes to you, Ant."
Alph switched off the bedside lamp and retreated out of the room, closing the door behind him.
Ant shifted on his side of the bed as he tried to get comfortable. He stopped fidgeting around when he felt Dec grab his arm.
"Ant?"
"Yeah, Decky?"
"I don't want to go to the zoo anymore," the little boy says meekly.
Ant reached over to the bedside table and turned on the lamp again. "Why?"
"I just don't wanna." Dec threw the duvet over him.
"Oh, there's gotta be something that made you not wanna go anymore." Ant tried to pull the duvet off Dec, but the smaller lad was determined to stay underneath it. Ant gave up and joined Dec under the covers instead. "Decky, please tell me what's wrong? Are you scared of something?"
"Yeah..."
"Of the animals at the zoo?"
Dec shakes his head. Scared like this, Dec looks much smaller than he is.
"Then why are you scared?"
"I'm scared of getting lost and I know I'm gonna get lost because I'm a lot smaller than you, Ant."
"You won't, Decky. Your Mam and Dad are gonna look after us." Ant momentarily got out of bed to grab the new Build-a-bear Dec's parents gave him. He jumped back under the covers and handed his bear to Dec, which he hugged tightly.
"Me and Bear will look after you tomorrow." Ant then took his pal's hand. "You can even hold my hand when we're at the subway; I'll make sure not to lose you."
"Okay, Ant," Dec slowly smiled, snuggling up to his friend.
"You not scared anymore?"
"No, cos of you." Dec plants an innocent kiss on Ant's cheek, much like the kind of kisses his Dad gives his Mam when he says, "thank you."
Ant doesn't say anything else. He just puts a protective arm over Dec, giving him all the security he can give even as they sleep.
