{EDITED}

~~Rob's P.O.V~~
My eyes shot up as I sprang up from my bed, wheezing for air, my chest rising up and down in a rapid motion. Running my hand across my forehead, sweat coming in contact with the back of my hand. "Another...nightmare. Breathe in...Breathe out." My heart slowly stops pounding at my chest, my breathing became slow and steady. A dark figure went to my range of vision, my head turning to my right as it went out of the door.

Narrowing my brown orbs, contemplating to myself before deciding to follow them, whoever they are. Grabbing my blue hoodie, wearing it over my white sleeveless shirt and climbing down the ladder attempting not to make a sound or else it might wake the boys up.

Landing on the marble floor, a shiver ran down my spine as my bare feet came in contact to it. Putting on my blue converse shoes, not bothering utilising my socks, opening the door, shutting it silently. Catching the sight of the mysterious figure making a right turn from the left hallway.

Adrenaline courses through my legs as I sprint after them, managing to skid to a stop before my face is going to meet with the wall, making the sharp right turn. At the end of the hallway was a door, the dark figure opens it, closing behind him. Finally reaching to the door, I panted for more oxygen, tired from running.

Getting from my crouched position, examining the door, the door is crafted out of spruce wood, green curvy lines, making them look like vines, and dark pink painted flowers, at each corner of the door. Hesitantly placing my hand on the cold bronze doorknob, gulping as I turn it anti-clockwise.

Swinging the door open, revealing an outdoor garden with an almost visible shield, which protects us from being detected by Herobrine's forces. Variety of flowers, trees and greenery spread across the entire dome. "Woah..." Barely whispering my astonishment.

In the middle of the garden lies a bench, coincidentally where the person is sitting on. I approached silently on my toes, tiptoeing towards the figure, the light from the moon slowly revealing the person's features.

Brown hair.

Chocolate orbs.

A black fire hoodie.

A childish grin.

Preston Blaine Arsement.

"P-Preston?!" I shout, more like a whispered shout. The Texan jumped in shock, brown orbs locking into mine. He looks terrible. Full dark circles under his red and puffy eyes, his brown straight hair dishevelled, in a wreck due to the work of sadness. "Preston--what happen to you?" Sitting beside the youngest boy, he dissolves in tears as they run like waterworks.

I pull the brown hair boy close to my chest, whispering sweet nothings to his ears, combing his brown hair with my fingers. Feeling a wet patch forming onto my blue hoodie. 'Have to change that later.'
He stops crying, still buried in my chest, choking on sobs. "Better?" I whisper to him as he looks up at me, giving a slight nod.

"Wanna talk about it?" Preston nod in response.

"I...I had a-- nightmare."

"About?"

Pausing before stuttering on his answer. "Y-you."

"What about me?" Raising an eyebrow at him.

He chokes on sobs as he tried to bring up about the nightmare. Wrapping my arms around him, pulling him even closer to me. His breath was shaky, managing to stutter on his reply, "H-Herobrine s-stab you in the heart. Y...You d-die. I-" Placing a finger on the boy's lips as he starts to weep after responding.

"That won't happen, Preston." My voice going low as he locks his eyes with my caramel ones.

"But-"

"I won't leave you, Preston," I said with my eyes reflecting determination.

"P-Promise?" Preston asked, wrapping his own arms around me.

"Promise," I reply as I rub circles around his back. He slowly stirred and he went numb, falling asleep. Smiling at how cute the boy looks when he's sleeping, I slowly carry him bridal style, careful not to wake the sleeping Texan in my arms.

Putting an arm around his neck, another under his knees. I bury him close to my chest making him smile in his sleep. Slowly getting up from the bench, stopping in my tracks. Closing my eyes concentrating on making a flower with my powers. Opening them to reveal a beautiful delicate flower swirled with the colour red, orange and blue mixed together.

Start to the room where the Pack sleeps. I open the door closing it slowly, tiptoeing towards our bunk. Gently putting Preston on his bed, I was about to climb the ladder but I felt a tug on the right sleeve of my hoodie.

Turning towards the brown hair boy, looking at me with sad eyes. "Sleep with me." Blushing in response as I hesitantly lie beside him, the fire element burying his head at the crook of my neck. I wrap my arms around his lower torso pulling him closer. Giving one last smile to Preston before falling into the arms of sleep...

The Next Morning...

~~TheBanjanCanadian's P.O.V~~
Dawn breakthrough making me stir as my eyes open welcoming with the sunlight. Stretching my constricted limbs, earning a satisfying pop each time. Inhaling a deep breath before letting it out, Jayrome climbing down the ladder, half-asleep and half-awake in his bacca pyjamas.

Chucking to myself as I grab a white sleeveless shirt and another black-red checkered jacket along with dark tinted blue track pants. I walk into the bathroom, changing out of my sleeping wear, tossing them into the laundry basket, which I score on that throw, walking out, sleepy Vikkstar entering the bathroom I went to.

I walk towards the Aussie's bunk, Lachlan, who is snoring pretty loudly, which is enough to shake this room. Using my right foot slightly kicking metal parts that hold the bunk, shaking in response. Hearing some groans of displeasure before going back to the snores. Pinching the bridge of my nose, sighing in displeasure before climbing the ladder.

Reaching to the top bunk upon seeing the blonde sleeping in an awkward position. His mouth was wide open, where the snores are coming from, coincidentally he's drooling. His right elbow bent, his arm up in the air, on the other hand, the left arm is normally on the bed. The water elemental legs are too long that they go over out of metal bars.

"Wake up Lachlan."

Stirring...

"Get up."

Turning the opposite side...

*Sigh*...

"WAKE UP YOU JAG!"

Lachlan immediately sat up causing him to hit his head on the ceiling. A mouthful of curse words escaped barely audible to the ears.

"I'm up. I'm up." Groaning as I give a smile before I climb back down walking over to the Poofless bunk. My eyes widen that they were about to pop out, a smirk spread across my face. "What are you smirking about Mitchell?" Vikram question. Gesturing at Preston's bed was Mr Woofless wrapping arms around Preston with him burying into his chest with a smile plastered on his pale face. "#PooflessIsReal." The black-hair boy replies as I nod in response.

"Wake up sleepy heads!" Jerome chuckled. The ship stirred, the first one is to wake up is Rob-a-dob-flob, he sat up, a blush rising to his face. "I-it's not w-what it looks like!" He protested.

"Sure...Rob. Sure."

Preston slowly sat up, still clinging to Rob's right arm. "Morn' Robbie..." This made him redden even more. "We'll leave you two alone for a while~" Lachlan tease as the duo flush in embarrassment.

"LACHLAN!!!!"

I think this day will be an interesting one. I watch the Australian running away from Poofless who are angry and embarrassed at the same time. Shadow walk in to see the chaos before her, stepping back out shutting the door.
