This is NOT a smut chapter. I repeat this is NOT a smut chapter. This chapter is rated pg13 and barely that. You'll understand the need for this warning later.


I bolted up in bed, hyperventilating, drenched in my own sweat. It was just a nightmare, calm down Mirio get it together! But it was so realistic so scary, Tamaki's still alive nothings wrong he's safe. I turned on the light, took a few deep breaths trying to calm down, but I couldn't get those images out of my head. I looked at the time it was almost twelve on a Saturday night, it's late but he's probably still up, I grabbed my phone and called my night owl.

"Mirio? What are you still doing up?" I started crying tears of relief at the sound of his voice. "Wha-what's wrong? Speak to-to me is ev-everything ok?" I realized how stupid this was, calling him in the middle of the night about a bad dream like a child crawling into their parents' bed. And he stated stuttering he doesn't really stutter much when talking to me anymore!

"I-it's nothing! I had a bad dream that's all!" I tried to brush it off, trying to make him feel less anxious.

"It doesn't sound like nothing," he told me, he knew me long enough to know when I was lying then he stuttered so quietly I almost didn't hear him. "Wo-would you like me-e to co-ome over?" I couldn't believe my ears. He asked if I wanted him to come over in the middle of the night. I didn't want to bother him but the rapid beating of my heart made me say yes. "O-open your wi-indow, I-I'll fly over," with that he hung up. he was still stuttering! A lot! what have I done! Now not only do I feel scared from my dream I also feel bad for making him feel bad! I did what I could with shaky hands I opened my window feeling the warm spring air on my face. I sat down on my bed and waited. Soon on duck wings, Tamaki flew up to my window and climbed in he pulled the wings against his back but didn't get rid of them.

He sat down right next to me, curled up against my side, put his hands over mine, as he wrapped one of his wings around me. "Mirio, I'm here, what's wrong?" his voice was calming and gentle, just like I make mine when I comfort him, even when he was drenched is anxiety sweat. I looked over to see his beautiful face, with his eyes, filled worry.

Since he came all the way over I couldn't not tell him even if it was embarrassing! "I know this is silly but I had a nightmare, we were pro heroes and I saw you get killed by a villain and I couldn't do anything... but watch..." I started crying again. He wiped away my tears.

"Everything's fine, it was just a dream, I'm right here, and I always will be here whenever you need me. Just like you are whenever I need you."

"I'm afraid to go back to sleep, I'm afraid that I'll have another nightmare," I admitted, He was the only one I felt comfortable being vulnerable around, with him, I don't always need to be positive and brave all the time.

"Wo-would you like me-e to spend the-e night with y-you?" he was bright red, when he whispered the next part, "sha-aring the-e bed with yo-ou?" he was being very forward, it was weird but kinda nice. I nodded. We've had a lot of sleepovers but we never shared a bed before! Plus my bed is only twin-sized.

"But what will we do in the morning? I don't think our families would be very happy."

"You wake up really early so when you wake up, you can wake me, I brought duck jerky and left my bedroom window open I can fly back, and no one would suspect a thing." he took a bag of jerky out of his pocket and placed it on my desk. He stopped stuttering! His anxiety went down a little!

"You have this whole thing planed out!" I laughed.

"I wanted to do this for a while" he looked away, his voice was barely a whisper, "I just never had a reason..."

"I would have said yes if you asked. You're the best boyfriend ever!" I told him, this made him squirm and blush, he can't take a compliment it was just so cute, but I wish he could he really could to it might help with his self-esteem issue. I let out a yawn, I looked at the clock it was almost one, I don't think I was ever up this late!

"Tired?" He yawned back, I nodded. He got up to turn off the lights, so the only light came from the open window. I lay down on my side in bed pushing myself against the wall so to leave room for Tamaki, who I watched awkwardly crawled in next to me. He lay on his side looking at me, we were really close together. I hesitantly draped my arm over him. I know I was blushing, but he was too he scooched a bit closer to me and I wrapped my arm completely around him, and my other arm under the pillow under his head. I moved a little bit away from the wall, closer to he did the same thing, putting one arm over me, holding me and squeezed the other under my armpit.

"Can I kiss you?" I asked, my voice was just loud enough for him to hear.

"Yea," with that I moved over the small distance between our faces and gently pressed my lips against his, just for a second before pulling back. Completely at peace I closed my eyes and drifted off to sleep.


I opened my eyes and saw Tamaki sleeping peacefully in the early morning sunlight, there was a bit of drool hanging down from his mouth and his long hair fell onto his face. I thought that I was still dreaming before I remembered the events of last night! I can't believe that he's really here in my bed sleeping next to me! I gently whipped away the drool and pushed away a lock of his hair from his face. I really really didn't want to wake him. It's really rare to see him this peaceful but I had to wake him so he could go back to his house so we wouldn't get in trouble.

"Tamaki?" I whispered as I gently shook his shoulder, he muttered something that I couldn't make out. "Tamaki?" I whispered again and shook him a little harder, his eyes slowly flickered open reveling his perfect dark indigo eyes. He smiled at me and muttered my name. "You need to go back to your room, I don't want you to get in trouble." he just curled up into me. "Tamaki!" I laughed trying to sit up but when I tried to free my arm from under him it was so asleep that it was completely numb! But me sitting up was enough to get him up.

"I know you're tired but still it's getting late for being up early!" I was starting to get worried I looked at my clock it was a bit after seven-thirty, which is much later than I usually sleep, but still earlier than anyone in my family wakes up on a Sunday.

"Kiss me Mirio?" he requested, half-consciously. This is the first time he ever directly asked me to kiss him, normally he brings his head close to mine and lets me close the gap. Because he asked I couldn't say no. He could ask me to do just about anything and I'd do it if he asked me directly. I was more than happy to give him a quick kiss. But then he wrapped his arms around me. And kissed me again, I had to pull away, then he tried adding tongue! Which we never did before!

"Are you ok Tamaki?" I asked in shock, he was never this bold. Ever!

"Wa-wait I'm awake thi-is time!?" I nodded, and he turned bright red and curled into the fetal position rocking back and forth slightly.

"What's wrong? And what do you mean this time?" I gently put my awake hand on his shoulder.

"I-I've had dreams where this happens, I tho-ought this wa-as one of them..."

I moved my hand to under his chin making him face me, but he refused to look me in the eye, "It's ok, you didn't do anything wrong, why don't you fly back to your apartment, get some sleep and come over this afternoon and we'll talk about it then."

He nodded and without looking at me he hastily ate some jerky sprouted wings, but I spoke before he flew away. "I actually kinda didn't mind how you kissed me," I was stumbled over my words, and I'm sure that I was blushing, I knew that he was!
