A pretty short Kairi x Yaya oneshot. Working on a couple of more oneshots involving more characters. I hope you enjoy!

::Sweet Dreams::

I woke up in a cold sweat. My hands trembled and my heart was beating so fast I thought it might burst through my chest. That was the worst nightmare I had ever had. The darkness crept around me, making me feel suffocated. I reached over and switched my lamp on. It wasn't bright enough to light the whole room, but bright enough to calm me down a little bit. I had to admit, I was really scared. My parents and Tsubasa had gone to Grandma's house without me, so I was alone…in the dark…

I whimpered slightly as scary images seemed to materialize from the darkness. I did the only logical thing I could think of. I called Amu. I had done it once before, when I had a scary dream about being chased by some freaky clown and she was able to make me feel better. Maybe she would help me now.

"Hello?" She muffled from her end of the line.

"Amu-chi, it's me, Yaya. Yaya had a really creepy dream and Yaya is really, really scared. Mama and Papa are out and Yaya can't get back to sleep-" I heard a long sigh from her. Did I make her mad? Maybe she was really sleepy.

"Amu-chi?" I called tentatively.

"Not Amu." I froze. I knew that voice.

"Kairi-kun! Yaya is so sorry!" I had called Kairi-kun instead of Amu-chi! Wow, Kairi had a really girly voice over the phone.

"So you had a bad dream, Yaya-semapi?" Despite the drowsiness laced in his voice, his voice sounded thoughtful. I frowned and I flushed at my mistake. Kairi was going to be so mad.

"Yeah…" I lied back down and tucked the covers around me with my free hand. The shadows didn't seem so scary when I had someone to talk to.

"What was it about?" He asked. I heard some shuffling on his side. I bit my lip.

"Yaya was…falling." My dream seemed a lot scarier when I was alone. Now it sounded silly.

"Falling?" He repeated.

"Yeah," I replied. "I was falling down this…dark area. There was nothing for me to stop myself with. It was really scary." I frowned in the darkness, recalling the dream.

"Hold on a second." I heard more shuffling on his side before I heard papers turning. I heard a small 'ah ha' on his part.

"Okay, Yaya-sempai. It says here in The Big Book of Nightmares that falling dreams are associated with someone feeling heavy, unsupported, or worried about something. Also, it asks the question 'does someone need to be more grounded?'" I frowned. A lot of that didn't make much sense.

"Do you feel any of those things lately?" Kairi asked. I really thought about it.

"No…Yaya doesn't think so." I replied. Then I remembered something. I was worried about a big test coming up and no one had the time to help me. I didn't realize I had voiced that last though until Kairi spoke up.

"I'll help you study Yaya-sempai. If I don't understand the material, we can always see if Yukari will help. She's really smart. So don't worry about it, alright?" The simple statement made my heart flutter. I was smiling so much that my cheeks started to hurt.

"Thank you so much, Kairi-kun." I heard him close the book and more shuffling.

"Are you feeling better, Yaya-sempai? Are you ready to go back to sleep?" He asked. I frowned.

"Yaya isn't tired anymore." I admitted. It was hard for me to go back to sleep when I had been awake for so long. I heard a sigh on his side. Or maybe it was a laugh. I couldn't tell.

"Okay, this is a trick Yukari use to do when I couldn't fall asleep. Close your eyes." I did as he said.

"Now, imagine you are in a big open field lying down. Imagine the vivid blue sky and clouds. Imagine the soft green grass beneath you. Now, as I count, imagine a fluffy white sheep…" I couldn't hear him anymore. My eyes slowly closed and I felt myself falling asleep. I could faintly hear him count up to ten before I fell asleep completely.

The next day at school, Kairi went on and on about how 'a goodnight's sleep is essential to the mind of someone our age.' He also scolded me for letting him continue on so long.

"I counted to nearly two hundred, Yaya-sempai!" He exclaimed. I didn't pay much attention. Instead, I chose to remember last night's sweet dream.

Awww, I liked this one. I hope you did too. I adore your opinions. Also, The Big Book of Nightmares does not exist. A good friend of mine called The Internet gave me those tips, heh.
