“Sing me to sleep, I’ll see you in my dreams”

His dreams were nightmares. Never ending nightmares.

He dreamed of running, with his own unknown fear chasing him from behind. Dark, hollow halls followed his steps in the running. A door opened at the end, but whenever he reached it, it vanished and he’s in the dark, dark room of nothingness.

And he’d wake up to see no signs of a chocoholic blond, who used to be ready and awake when he’s woken up. The empty bed across the room was a painful reminder of that fact.

But tonight, he woke up to see a small white figure curling himself on top of the bed. On his bed.

Grey eyes popped underneath messy mops of white hair, starring at him owlishly.

“You’re awake.”

He kept silent, because Near didn’t need anything to confirm the truth of his statement. Sometimes he thinks Near was never wrong on anything. He rolled on his back, wrapping the sheets tighter around himself.

The last thing he needs was his body to be as cold as his heart.

“Go away, Near.” He muttered, closing his eyes.

“You had a nightmare.”

“And it’s none of your fucking business, isn’t it?”

He felt a bit bad for being so harsh, but it’s nothing compared to Mello’s threat to the younger boy.

“Why do you even care anyway?”

“Because you’re my friend.”

He laughed humorlessly and turned sideways to face Near.

“We’re never friends.” He said coolly. Near shrugged indifferently, slowly sitting up.

Friends. A stupid word that no longer held any meaning to him.

He ignored Near and closed his eyes. He even pretended he didn’t care when he felt the boy slipping under the covers with him, curling himself against his warmth.

Despite it all, he cried as he held the boy in his arms, feeling those arms tighten around his neck, gripping like it’s the only thing that could save them.

That night, instead of the usual emptiness he felt, he feels safe. For once he can hold onto something to keep him from drowning.

He let the soothing sound of Near’s breathing lulled him into a nice, dreamless sleep.
