Y/N's POV

During the film, Patton was nuzzling my shoulder and must have been tired as he fell asleep with his head on my shoulder. Looking at his adorable, sleeping face, I decided to just let him sleep in my bed with me for the night. Carefully and cautiously, I lifted him off of my shoulder and lay him on the bed next to me. Lying down, I closed my eyes as I drifted off into a deep sleep.

My eyes slowly opened as I stretched my arms and yawned. It was still pitch black outside so it must have been fairly early in the morning. I rolled over to go back to sleep when all of I sudden, the door creaked open and a streak of bright yellow light from the hallway entered the room. I immediately sat up and looked towards the door to see a tall figure enter, carrying something in his hand, although I couldn't quite work out what.

As the figure began to approach the bed, I burried half of my face under the covers out of fear but my eyes were still showing so I could see what was happening. The figure walked past the bed towards the light switch and when it flicked the switch on, I saw the figure's acid yellow eye and wide smirk. It was the man who had kept me captive not so long ago: Deceit. Even the sight of him sent shivers down my spine. In his hand, he held a sharp, silver knife. Before I could say anything, he flicked his wrist and my hand was slapped over my mouth. I tried to remove it but his powers were just too strong.

"Now now no need for that. No matter how hard you try, that hand's not coming off. Besides, we wouldn't want you making too much noise that he wakes up would we?" He asked in a menacing whisper as he approached Patton's sleeping body, holding the knife above his head.

"With Mr perfect here gone, you'll finally be mine. He can't protect you forever, especially if he can't protect himself" He chuckled darkly. As he plunged the knife towards Patton's chest, I was some how able to rip my hand off of my mouth and scream.

"Nooooooo"

My eyes jolted open before the knife hit Patton's chest and I began to heavily breath. I immediately looked next to me to see Patton safe, his eyes begginning to open. Morning had begun to arrive and there were a few days of sunshine lighting up the room but it was still fairly early in the morning, about 6 am according to the clock.

"I-is everything alright Pumpkin?" Patton asked, rubbing his eyes as he slowly sat up. My screams must have woken him up.

"It was just a dream" I let out a sigh of relief.

"W-what was?" Patton asked, confused and I turned to face him.

"Oh Patton, I had the worst dream, well more like a nightmare. Deceit came into my room and he silenced me and he tried to kill you and..." I tried to explain frantically, tears running down my cheek. He'd pulled me into a tight hug and was rubbing my back soothingly, calming me down.

"Shhhh. It's ok. It was just a dream. Nothing happened. And I promise you that nothing will happen. I'll keep us both safe, okay?" I nodded and he kissed my forehead. "Now, it's still a bit early. Do you want to go back to sleep?" I shook my head.

"What if I get another nightmare?" I asked.

"Well I guess we could stay awake. Do you want me to stay here with you?" He asked and I nodded my head.

"Yes please. I need someone to keep me company and I need to know that you're ok"

"I'll be fine but if you want me to then I don't mind staying in here"

"Thank you Pat" I kissed his cheek.

"Of course. Any time. I love you Y/N"

"I love you too" I leaned in to kiss him and as our lips met, all of my worries dissapeared.
