Chelley. Human! Wheatley AU. Wheatley has a nightmare, and Chell comforts him. Lots of fluff.
"AAH!"
Chell was woken up by sounds of screaming coming down the hallway.
She sat up in the bed, looking around.
"Not this again."
She was usually woken up in the middle of the night by Wheatley. It was usually over something stupid like him thinking there was something in his closet or under the bed.
She sighed, looking at the door. "Wheatley?"
She got no answer.
She got up, stretched and walked down the hall into Wheatley's bedroom.
"Wheatley?"
"AAAAAAAAH!"
Wheatley jumped out of the bed and sat there, shivering and whimpering like a little kitten that had been barked at by a dog.
"Wheatley, what's wrong?"
He didn't say anything, he just sat there sobbing hysterically, staring at her.
Chell walked over to his bed and sat down beside him.
"Are you okay?" She was concerned, she had never seen him this upset before. Not even that time when she snapped at him because he wouldn't stop annoying her, or the time when he accidentally broke that glass and started crying, thinking Chell was going to kick him out of her apartment and never speak with him again.
"I-" Wheatley said, sitting there, staring at her again.
He was obviously not going to say anything for a while.
"Okay, I'll just sit here until you tell me something.."
"I-I..You. I. Hurt you."
"What?" She didn't know what he was talking about at all.
"I hurt you...I'm so s-sorry, Chell.. I didn't mean to put y-you through that kind of p-pain.."
Obviously he had a nightmare.
"Wheatley.." She said, moving close beside him and putting her arms around him.
"I-"
"Shhhhh." She said, putting her finger on his lip to calm him down. She got out of the bed and stood up. "I'm still here. You didn't hurt me at all, see?"
"Good.."
"What happened in your nightmare? Are you okay?"
"Yeah, I'm okay. And I really don't want to talk about that nightmare...I'll tell you in the morning."
"Okay."
She lied back down beside him and wrapped her arms around him again.
"Hey, Chell?"
"Yes?"
"Can you keep holding me like this? It makes me feel safe."
"Of course. I'll always be with you no matter what happens."
"Good. I love you, Chell."
"I love you too, Wheatley."
Wheatley closed his eyes and soon fell asleep. Chell followed soon after, and when they woke up in the morning, Chell was still in that same position, with Wheatley in her arms.
"Good morning, Love!"
