A/N: Ok, I know for a fact that I have at least one reader from my story "A Winters Night" here, and I want to explain why I haven't updated it. If you aren't from it, feel free to both skip this bit and/or read the story. I'd love it if you do.
Guys, I am super sorry, I really meant to update it, but I had to go see my counselor the day before my baby brother Mal went in for an MRI, we were checking for very, very bad brain damage. We got the results back Tuesday, the MRI picked up no brain damage, thankfully. Basically, stuff happened and I had to move that story to the back burner for a little while. I am so sorry, I am going to work on it and, hopefully, update today.
Alright this is where I talk about this story real quick:
1) I am going to have so much FUN writing this! :
2) Warning for fluff.
3) Please vote on whether or not you all would like me to turn this into a Bedtime Stories oneshot and mini-arc collection, I'll have the poll in my profile.
And now, the dreaded disclaimer,
Disclaimer: Disclaimer, I own nothing, not the Guardians of Childhood, nor Rise of the Guardians, I own only the plot, a copy of the movie and all the current books, and my belief. Set the day after the battle to get Katherine back.
Third Person POV:
Nicolas St. North, E. Aster Bunnymund, Toothianna, Ombric, and Sanderson Mansnoozie were headed to go check on Katherine. It was the sort of thing that you would expect them to do, her having just been freed from a nightmare without end.
They had not all started out together, they had simply sensed that the time was upon them to go to Katherine and Nightlight and joined up on the way. And when they felt the urge to go to Nightlight's room, they simply assumed that she had awoken early and went to see her closest friend.
However, in this universe, you really shouldn't assume.
The sight that greeted them was notKatherine and Nightlight talking, no no, it was something much more unexpected. Katherine and Nightlight were both asleep on Nightlight's bed, her under the covers, him under a hastily laid-out quilt that was spread over the two of them. And the fact that they were holding hands was not unnoticed either.
The reactions were as expected, North looked about ready to kill Nightlight, Ombric much the same, Tooth had her hands over her mouth, Bunny merely raised an eyebrow, and Sandy did the logical thing: Took in the others reactions and reviewed the dreamsand that had visited the two during the night.
After the expected chaos, Sandy proceed to grab Nightlight's staff and slam the butt of it on the ground, consequently getting the attention he needed.
He then told them, via dreamsand shapes above his head, that he was going to knock them out and show them what had happened the night before when the Moonbeam in it's diamond began to flash.
Surprised, all leaned into to hear the Moonbeams tale,
"My Nightlight boy has done no wrong, he has instead helped his story-girl when she is alone and scareds. He comes to room with his story-girl and asks her to read to him, he is tired but knows not how to sleep. His story-girl goes and gets the stories of the battles that we has had. She reads to him and falls to sleep. My boy picks her up and puts her to bed, puts me in my place, and lays on the ground at the foot of the bed. But later she wakes, is all scareds. Her crying awakes my boy. He holds her as she tells him of the nightmare bad she had, and he knows that she is not unaffected by the nightmare sleep. So he sings to her and lays her down, but she asks him not to leave. So my Nightlight boy gets a blanket and lays next to her, and holds her hand, and they sleep unafeared all the night long."
After the Moonbeam finishes it's tale, the others look at one another before coming to two silent conclusions,
1) They should leave before they wake up the two. And,
2) There are bets to be placed.
A/N: Fluff in unconventional manners but,IT'S LATE when I wrote this. I'll think that I'll do a fourth chapter, I am seriously thinking that this is NOT going to stay in the -Insert one to ten-shot category here, I really don't.
