16; Midnight Dreams

I tossed and turned in my sleep, messing up the silky smooth blankets that covered my bed.

Snoring softly into the pillow I moan a couple times each time I have something bad happen in my dream.

Being in that whiteness for so long with that shadow thing really made me so exhausted that, when I came back it felt as if I hadn't slept in weeks.

But here I was, knocked out like a light sprawled out on my comfortable bed.

"He's been in here, sleeping a pretty long time." Princey said with worry, leaning on the doorframe. "Should we be worried Logan?"

"No." Logan sighed out, reassuring him with a small smile, "He needs the sleep."

Princey sighed and nodded at the intelligent boy in front of him. He gave a last look at me before he gave the gesture for Logic to leave with him. So, he left carelessly out of the doorframe and went down the hall.

After hours of sleeping I slowly opened my eyes letting them adjust to the brightness of the light coming through the room just right.

Not bothering to change out of my clothes or do anything really so I slithered my way out of bed.

I gradually inched my way down that hall and into the kitchen to grab something to drink. For some reason I had felt incredibly thirsty, like I was extremely dehydrated.

I groggily opened the fridge door and grabbed a milk jug I hadn't noticed before and gulped down a few sips.

I out the jug back with ease, feeling refreshed. As I went over to the cupboard to get the cereal. As I grabbed the knob, a glass breaks behind me.

I turn around at the sudden noise and she Princey looking at me like he had seen a ghost or something.

"A-Anxiety?" Princey barely said above a whisper. He sounded so broken.

I looked at him for a moment, scanning his body carefully. His hair was damp, flat and unstyled with a few hair sticking out here and there.

His bed head was pretty hot, if I do sat so myself. His pajamas were wrinkled at every edge and corner. The edges of his eyes were puffy and a tint of red, like he had been crying.

I smiled and titled head at the boy's very different and sudden appearance, "Yeah?"

"Yo-You're awake." He said in a sob. Princey jerked his body at me and embraced me in a tight hug.

"Yeah, I am Princey." I chuckled out, hugging him back with confusion written on my face. Princey squeezed harder earning a moan from me. "Why wouldn't I?"

"You have been asleep almost three days, Anxiety."
