No ones POV:

The doctors kept Mike in the hospital for one more day just to make sure all of the curare left his system. Two days after the thing with Lila, Jesse and Nic were able to take Michel home. "And your sure you're ok? Not like dizzy or anything?" Jesse asked trying to support his loved one walking towards the front door of thier house. "Yes i'm fine." Michel smiled. "It's so cute how he tries to help me." He thinks to himself. Nic opens the front door and let his friends in. "I'm in my room if you need anything." Nicholas said and walked upstairs. "Ok now it's my turn to care about you!" Jesse designated and brought Michel on the couch. "So... what do you need?" He asked thoughtful. "Just some water, my throat is really dry." Mike said and coughed slightly. "Jesse went in the kitchen and brought his friend a glass of water. "There you go." Jesse handed Mike the glass. "Thank you." He said and took a big gulp. "What do you wanna do?" The tall boy asked. "Smash?" The dark-haired man asked and shruged his shoulders. "Sure... let's get Nic and play." Mike said and Jesse walked upstairs to get the curly head.

They played switch all day long and in the evening Heather came over to play some board games with the boys. They ordered themselves some pizza and had a fun night together. After Michel almost fell asleep two times on Jesses shoulder they decided to go to bed. Nic and Heather went into Nicolas' room, Mike and Jesse into Michels. "Good night boys!" Heather yelled and closed the door. "Night!" the boys yelled back and the dirty blond-haired man launched himself on the bed exhausted.

Jesses POV:

I smiled at Michel falling on his big bed. He is so adorable. I carefully pushed him to the side and crawled under the blanket. Michel laughed as i started pushing him and changed his position so i could place on his chest. As i tried to find a comfortable position he already put his arm around me and pressed me closer to his body. "Am i your teddy bear or what?" I asked giggling. "Yes!" Mike answered with a confident look. "Do you have a problem with it?" He added. "Not at all." I said and pulled myself into his sweater. "Sleep tight, Michel." I muttered pulling me up to his face but he was already asleep. With a smile on my face did i place a little kiss on his lips and fell asleep.

I woke up from some sort of movement. I just turned around and was about to fall asleep again, but the movement returned stronger. It was Michel twitching underneath my body. As i looked up to see his face. He looked terrified and wimpered quiet. I slowly rolled off Mikes body and carefully put his head on my chest. Hie intired body was constrained. "Shhhhh, Michel... everything is fine... i'm here... don't be scared..." I wispered and tried to calm him down by softly stroking his head. His intired body started shivering. I felt his heart beating hard and fast. Sweat was dripping off his face and neck and he was breathing fitfully. I got scared and started shaking him softly to wake him up. "Michel! Wake up!" He didn't react at all. I tried again a little harder but he stayed in his tensed position. Suddenly Michel started up from his sleep yelling and hid himself away into the smallest corner of the bed. He looked around with wide opened eyes, terrified and completely ignoring me starring at him. "Michel, it's me, Jesse. Calm down... everything is fine..." I tried to get near my terribly frightened friend. The moment i slightly touched him, Mike winced and backed away from me as much as he could. Tears were running down his cheeks.

In the next moment the door busted open. "What's going on here?! Why did Michel scream?! What's wrong?" Nicholas yelled. "Nic! Please! You need to help me! Something is wrong with Michel!" some tears left the short boys eyes. "What's wrong?" Heather looked at Jesse confused "Something is going on with Mike! I don't know what to do anymore!" Jesse almost yelled in panic. "At first i thought he was having a nightmare and i tried to comfort him... but it only got worse. I also tried waking him up but it ended like this. He doesn't let anyone near him, don't know what to do anymore." Jesse explained. "You should give him some time to calm down..." Heather said and carefully rubbed Jesses shoulder. "I think what he is having right now is called 'night terror' or something. And Heather is right, usually you just need to give the affected person some time to calm. In like ten or fifteen minutes everything should be over." Nic explained. "Ok..." The dark-haired man sat down on the edge of the bed. "If you need us, just come over again." Nic said and he and Heather left the room.

After about ten minutes Mike got more and more calm and his head fell down on his pillow and he fell asleep. Jesse carefully got closer to Michel and stroked his head. A little smile grew on the tall boys lips and he grabbed Jesse and pulled him close to his chest. The dark-haired boy could hear that Mikes heart beat had normalised. "He's ok..." the short man sighed with relief. He put his arms around his loved one and fell asleep pretty fast.

Michels POV:

The next morning i woke up sleep-deprived. I blinked and looked at Jesse who was sleeping beside me, his arms wrapped around my body. I smiled and kissed his forehead. As i moved i could feel my shirt being slightly wet but i didn't really care about it because i wanted to take a shower anyways. I slowly wriggled myself out of Jesses grip without waking him up and walked to the bathroom to shower. After a long, nice shower i put my clothes on and headed back to my room.

No ones POV:

Jesse was awake and looked at Mike worried. "How are you feeling?" The dark-haired boy asked Michel. "Pretty tired, which's weird but doesn't matter." The tall boy said and laughed slightly confused. "Why are you asking?" He added. "You don't remember anything from last night, do you? What's the last thing you remember?" Jesse asked. Mike sat down on the bed and answered "Uhm... you lied on top of me and i asked you wheater you would mind if i'd use you as my teddy... Why?" "Because you were freaking out last night around 02:00 AM or something. You actually don't remember looking around in the room from that corner over there..." Jesse pointed at the corner Michel sat in last night. "...terribly frightened and not letting anyone come near you?" He continued very worried about his loved one. "No... i don't know what you're talking about." Mike answered confused. "Ok, never mind..." Jesse just hugged Michel and forgot about the situation.

The two boys went downstairs to get breakfast and saw Nic and Heather in the kitchen. "Good morning, boys! Michel, how are you doing? Everything ok?" Nicholas asked. "Yes, i'm ok... just a little tired..." Mike rubbed his eye. "Do remember anything of what happend last night?" Heather asked concerned. "I already told Jesse... No i don't remember anything..." "That's completely normal for people with this syndrome... but you should definetly go talk to a doctor because it's really seldom for an adult to have it." Nicholas said. "I have no idea what's happening right now but if you say so." Michel shruged his shoulders really confused. "Ok let's eat something and i'll call the doc and make a appointment with him." Jesse walked out of the kitchen to phone. "It is quite funny how everybody knows what's going besides me." Mike was very confused and made himself a coffee. "I think the doc can it explain it to you in the best way." Heather said. Michel started to get a little worried. Jesse came back into the kitchen. "Come on. The doc said we can come over right now." The boys put on thier shoes and Jesse drove them to the doctors office.
