It was a dark and rainy night. You were asleep in your bed as the sounds of the rain pattering against the bedroom window were soft and soothing. However, despite the dimly lit atmosphere of your nightlight glowing the bedroom to a comfortable measure alongside the soft pattering of the rain tapping against the window, nightmares were plaguing your brain.

You had woken up out of fear as you didn’t want to sleep in your bedroom anymore. Instead, you slipped out of your bed and went to Mark’s bedroom. You slipped into the bedroom quietly before climbing up in your father’s bed to ask him if you could sleep with him.

However, before you could even tap him awake, he sensed your weight weighing down the mattress beside him. His eyes slowly fluttering open as they farmed towards you. “Hey kiddo.. Why are you up..? Did something happen..?” He asks in a raspy tone that was full of sleep as he slowly sits up in bed, ready to tend to his child.
