Cuphead woke up with a jolt and sweating. He was still recovering from the nightmare he just had. About the devil. Ever since he and mugman went to that carnevil, he was worried about the devil coming to get his soul. it wasn't the first nightmare he had about him. he had multiple nightmares about it. he didn't want to tell mugman about it. He was still a little shaky after that ghost chase in the cemetery.

Then a loud rumble came from his stomach." maybe a midnight snack will keep my mind off the devil." Cuphead suggested as he got off the bunk bed. As he got off the bed

He notice mugman wasn't on the top bunk and his cover and sheets were gone.

he didn't worry too much about it. But as he headed to the kitchen, he saw light coming from the laundry room. Curious,cuphead walk to the laundry room to see if someone was in there. And by surprise, he saw mugman in there with his sheets and only wearing his boxer.

"Mugman?"

"C-Cuphead!" Mugman said startled "what are you doing here?"

"I was going to ask you the same question."

"Oh! Me? I was uh….just doing some laundry" mugman said nervously

"In the middle of the night?"

"Uhh…yes." he said while fumbling his fingers.

Cuphead glared at his brother. "Mugman, I know you for my whole life and I know you always fumble your fingers whenever you lie. What are you hiding ?"

Before mugman could answer, cuphead noticed a yellow wet stain on mugman's boxers

It didn't take him a second to realize what was going on. "Mugman….did you-?"

Just then mugman burst into tears and started crying. "I had a bad dream! And it was so scary that I…I…"

"You what?" asked cuphead.

"I wet the bed!" mugman said as he sob even more.

Cuphead looked at his brother speechless. He would normally laugh but he hates seeing his brother cry and doing that would make him cry even more. So he walked up to mugman and hugged him. Patting his back and making shushing noises in an attempt to calm him down. "Heeeey it's alright mugs. Accidents happen. " cuphead said in a soft calm tone. "Let's get you cleaned up and then we can talk about it in the kitchen. You must want a midnight snack." mugman's stomach growled in response. then he softly nodded.

After mugman got clean boxers and a onesie, the two boys quietly went down to the kitchen trying not to wake elder kettle up, and carefully got some cookies from the cookie jar, went to a table, and sat on a chair to eat.

"So what was your dream about?"

Mugman took a deep breath and begin to talk.

"I was getting chased by ghosts. But they look more demonic than I last saw them. I was running, I didn't know where I was going but I was running. I was calling your name but you weren't answering." As mugman explained his dream, tears filled up in his eyes

" And when I saw you, it was an evil version of yourself next to the devil. He ordered you to kill me. Then you pulled out a knife and stab me in the chest. I kept begging you to stop but you just started to laugh. The devil and the ghost were laughing too."

Mugman began to cry again and cuphead calmed him down. "But hey it was all just a dream."cuphead said "And you know I'm not gonna do something vile like that to you. As long as I'm here, I'm not gonna let anything happen to you."

Mugman looked up at his brother "promise?"

Cuphead hugged his brother "promise."

After they ate, they went back upstairs to their room to their beds. But mugman stood there quietly

"Hey, cups," he said quietly

"Yeah Mugsy?"

"Can I sleep on the bottom bunk with you? I don't feel comfortable sleeping by myself tonight."

Cuphead thought about it. Then he nodded

"sure mugs" cuphead said happily. "Just as long as you don't wet the bed again."

"Cuphead!" Mugman said angrily as he blushed.

"Calm down mugs. I'm just kidding."

So the two brothers slept together on cuphead's bed and dreamt happily without having any nightmares that night.
