Fermat's Crush

Chapter Six,

He woke with tears running down his face, tears which didn't stop as he woke more and realised that it was just a dream, a horrible, tear bringing dream. He couldn't stop his sobs as the thought of Virgil dying. He rubbed at his eyes but that just seemed to make it worse.

"Fermat?" a quiet voice asked from the door. "Are you alright?"

"Virgil?" Fermat gasped, using the cuff of his pyjama top to wipe his cheeks.

"What's wrong Fermat?" Virgil asked worriedly as he came over and sat on the edge of the bed. "Why are you crying?"

"I had a...bad dream," Fermat admitted feebly.

"I woke up and heard you crying, do you want to talk about it?" Virgil asked, putting a gentle hand on Fermat's arm. Fermat shook his head, trying not to think of the gentle touch on his arm. "Are you sure? It could make you feel better..."

"Well...you died," Fermat mumbled. "And your dad died, and Alan was arrested for murder..." Fermat's voice was shaking and Virgil looked at him kindly.

"Murder?" Virgil asked.

"He killed Mr Tracy because Mr Tracy killed you and me," Fermat said quietly, not looking at Virgil. Virgil was surprised and moved closer to Fermat so he could hug the younger boy as his tears started again.

"Well it was just a dream Fermat, just a dream," he said kindly, rocking from side to side. Fermat clung to him as he cried. "It's ok." Fermat pressed his face into the crook of Virgil's neck, noting that the older boy wore only his boxers.

As Fermat's sobs lessened and he seemed to be drifting off to sleep again Virgil shifted slightly so that he was lying on the bed with Fermat resting against him.

"Thanks Virgil," Fermat mumbled sleepily. "But I'm still afraid..."

"Go back to sleep Fermat, I'll stay with you," Virgil said kindly, pressing a kiss gently to Fermat's forehead as the boy returned to the land of sleep. Virgil smiled slightly as he too fell asleep, his arms protectivly curled around the younger boy who he subconsciously seemed to be falling for.

A/N This is so short and I'm so sorry but I'm drawing a blank at what to do next. HELP!
