Y/N POV
bzzt
"y/n?"
i woke up. looking to my right, my walkie was speaking.
"y/n?" a voice repeated.
i glanced to my left at my bedside clock, it was 2am. who could be trying to reach me at this time?
i picked it up.
"yeah?"
"y-y/n, it's mike"
"hey mike, what are you doing up?" i asked.
there was a sound of a sniffle. was he crying? is he okay?
"i need you y/n. i- uh..."
"mike? you okay? what happened?"
it became more clear that his voice was shaky.
"i- j-just ne-need you right now."
"please."
"um... of course. i'm on my way."
i put down the walkie and got my shoes on. i never really snuck out in the middle of the night. mainly because i usually sleep through all of it.
i got to the wheelers and i was about to knock on the door when a voice peeped through the walkie.
"it's open." said mike.
i pushed the door open and locked it behind me.
i went upstairs to his room where i spotted him sitting upright on his bed.
he saw me in the doorframe and he immediately lit up.
"y/n.." he muttered.
"mike, what's wrong?" i asked him.
his lips started to say something, but then they started to quiver. he burst into tears. i ran over and jumped into the spot next to him. i wrapped my arms around him and he sobbed into my sweater.
"what happened?" i asked after awhile.
"i had a really really bad dream." he said between soft cries.
i noticed his pillow was stained with tears. i rubbed his back and swayed side to side a little more until he calmed down.
"what was the dream about?"
he gulped, "it wasn't a dream. it was a nightmare i guess. i dreamt that i lost you. i lost you to the demogorgon. i had to witness you being ripped apart and eaten alive right in front of my eyes. and i couldn't even do anything about it. i had to watch you suffer and cry-" he sniffed.
i pulled him into a hug, "it's okay. i'd never leave you, okay? it's just a bad dream. it's not real. i'm here and safe, okay?"
he nodded.
we stayed there hugging for a while until he started to fall into sleep.
