It was a long night.
3:28
Harry had only just managed to get himself to sleep just half an hour ago, but his recurring nightmare had rattled him awake from his -not so peaceful- slumber.
He sighed, getting up and walking out from his room and onto the landing, stepping slowly to the bathroom as to not wake Simon. They shared the top floor to the sidemen house.
Little to Harry's dismay, Simon was already awake and had been for the past ten minutes. The walls in the sidemen house were relatively thin, so when Harry started to talk or rather cry  and almost scream in his sleep it pulled Simon from his peaceful sleep, for the past ten minutes Simon had been sat in his bed contemplating what to do, that was until the crying and shouting stopped and he heard the slight shuffling patter of small feet scuffling along the landing carpet caused Simon to get up and head towards the bathroom,
3:34
Harry searched through the small cabinet above the sink to see if there was any medicine or tablet he could take that would help him sleep, dissatisfied he found mouth wash, Simon's hair products and a few empty packets of paracetamol- which were only empty due to Harry's misuse of the standard pain relief pill.
3:33
Simon knocked quietly on the wooden door, startling the younger of the two.
"Harry? Bro, you alright?" Simon's voice rung through the cold air,
"Y-yeah just a sec" Harry stammered quickly picking up the knocked over mouthwash that he'd dropped when Simon had knocked.
3:34
Harry opened the door slowly to reveal Simon's worried face. Harry frowned.
"Are you okay?" He asked,
"I should be the one asking you that" Simon stated, monotone, feeling bad almost instantly as Harry looked towards the ground.
Simon took a few seconds to evaluate Harry's pyjamas, in the sidemen house it wasn't a secret that off camera Harry would wear more feminine clothes and was a lot more fragile and childlike. Simon thought it was cute though it wasn't a secret that Harry was gay -to his close friends at least- but it was a secret, to everyone, that Simon was.
Harry was wearing a pale pink matching pyjama set, a slightly cropped jumper and small shorts paired with a pair of pink socks covered with white hearts.
"Did I wake you up again?" Harry asked sheepishly, there had been dozens of times were Simon had texted Harry asking if he was okay and why he was awake at such a late hour.
Simon didn't respond, he knew the truth would make Harry feel worse, so instead he just wrapped the smaller boy in his slender arms. Harry quickly becoming engulfed by Simon's tall stature.
3:36
Simon by now had took Harry by his hand and lead him back to his own room,
"Do you want to sleep with me tonight?" Simon inquired.
"So you're not alone, I mean" Simon quickly added, he didn't want Harry to get the wrong idea and feel uncomfortable.
"Please" Harry smiled thankfully his eyes suddenly widening,
"Let me go get Coco first.." Simon shook his head,
"I'll go get her, you lie down." He pointed at his bed, Harry nodded.
When the taller of the two had left the room Harry snuggled up into the duvet of Simon's bed, to say he was scared would be an understatement, he didn't want to to wake up kicking and screaming in front of Simon but he didn't want to pass up on the opportunity to sleep with -non sexually- with crush.
3:40
Simon had returned with the stuffed koala in hand,
He smiled at the sight in front of him, discarding the bear to fall with a small thud to the floor Simon crawled into his bed and gently wrapped his arms around the sleeping boy and pulled him right against his body.
