BSM - You have a nightmare and he comforts you

Liam, age 4: You tossed and turned as another nightmare came upon your dreams. Earlier that night you had sat through one of your brother’s horror movies— he didn’t know you were there. To him you were sound asleep. You sat up quickly as the monster in your dream nearly caught you and screamed for your brother as loud as you could. Hearing his loud, thudding footsteps made you hide underneath the covers, making Liam coo down at you. “Y/N? Baby?” He gently kneels down next to your bed, pulling the covers from your head. “Li!” You sob, jumping into his arms. “Oh, sweetheart.” Liam sighs, rubbing your back to soothe you. “Don’t cry, look at Li, babygirl.” He comforts you. You dig your head into his shoulder, still crying. “How about you sleep with Li tonight?” He asks. “Please, Li-Li.” You softly croaked out, smiling as he carried you to his room.

Louis, age 3:Ever since Ernest and Doris got here, you felt that Louis wasn’t really paying attention to you. Your mum had just settled you in bed, and clearly you had fallen asleep quite quickly. Although, all dreams of yours were put to an end as you yelled out, crying, for Louis. “Y/N?!” He rushed into your room, picking you up straight away as you cried. “Oh poppet, what’s wrong?” He cooed, furrowing his eyebrows at how sudden everything had just happened. “Louis left me!” You sobbed. Louis suddenly understood, and he sighed. He turned to you, whom was sobbing in his neck, his stubble tickling your cheeks. “I’ll never leave you sweetie. Promise..” He soothed you, carrying you to his room, where you would spend the rest of the night. “I love you too much.”

Harry, age 16: Past the few days you hadn’t been sleeping well and Harry knew— there was no way he couldn’t. You tossed and turned again. The same nightmare every night. Harry would leave for tour and would never come back. You sat up immediately, crying as the dream ended again. Harry came into your room, hugging you, as you cried into his chest. “Please don’t leave again, Haz.” You sobbed. “Please.” He wrapped his arms around you, sitting you in his lap as he stared down at you. “I won’t, don’t worry. I promise.” He sighs, wiping away your tears. He hated seeing you like this, and he felt like it was all his fault. “How about you come on tour with me? That way I won’t have to leave.”

Zayn, age 15: Ever since your parents had gotten divorced, you had gotten no sleep at all. And when you did, it was all nightmares about who stayed with who, or you not staying with anybody. Waking up again the third time tonight, you huffed gently, blowing a piece of hair out of your face. Getting up, you quietly made your way into Zayn’s bedroom, crying silently. It was all getting too much, and you just wanted to cuddle with your brother and fall asleep. “Y/N?” He groggily called out, holding his hand over his face as the light shone directly in his eyes. “S-sorry Z. Can I sleep here tonight?” You asked, hoping he would say yes. “Sure, was it..?” He questions, you only nodding in reply. Shutting the door of his room, you lay next to him. “I promise, babe. None of this is your fault,  alright? And no-one will leave you. Ever.” He pulls you into his arms, whispering sweet nothings in your ear until you fell asleep.

Niall, age 2: You were on tour with Niall, and you hadn’t been with your mum in a while. Of course you missed, her which was why right now you were being rocked around in Niall’s arms, him cooing gently at you. “Mummy! Mummy!” You yelled, making him stop and stare at you. “You want mummy, princess?” He wipes away your tears, “How about we call mummy, hm? Will ye stop crying then?” He says, sitting down with you, turning on Skype on his phone. “Don’t cry princess. Yer gonna see mum, just wait yeh?”  He rubs your back, smiling as your mums face pops up on the screen. “Mummy!” You squeal, beaming. Niall laughs, letting you babble and squeal at your mum for a while. If it stopped you crying, he was happy.
