A Bedtime Story
Summary: Another nightmare by our favorite little monkey... he woke up in the twilight with tears shimmering in his eyes.
~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!
This time, the Sanzo-ikkou camped out for the night, for they have nowhere to go at this time of night. He shifted from his bed, wanting to talk to a certain someone... who is right now looking at him from the other side of the bed, smoking and levitating an eyebrow at him questioningly.
Goku sat upright and looked at where the monk was. The little monkey wanted to be comforted, so he crawled to the monk; which Sanzo beckoned with his cold, cynical eyes.
As Goku crawled to him, he cried. Sanzo welcomed him with arms partly outstretched. "Had another nightmare again?" he asked. Goku could only cry as a response. Later, Goku started to calm down, "Nee, nee, Sanzo... do you know any bedtime stories?" The monk took a last drag from the cigarette and threw it away, "Nope, don't know any."
Goku turned to chibi mode & pouted, "Why not? You grew up in a temple, didn't you?" He was about to bicker with Sanzo when violet eyes glared at him as if saying to shut up.
Sanzo didn't say anything furthermore, he knew that Koumyo told him lots of stories, he's just not in the mood to tell his charge a story.
Goku asked, "Well, can you make one up?" The monk could only shook his head, but the chibi monkey continued to plea until he's had enough. He summoned all his energy to say something... at least.
"Once upon a time they lived happily ever after. The end. Now go to sleep," Sanzo said with a sigh. Before he said anything else, Goku crawled back to his bed. He heard Goku mumbled something about that being the greatest story that he ever heard.
Sanzo smirked inwardly, and went back to bed as well.
