Nightmare
Nightmare
Elrik was awoken to a horrible sound in the middle of the night. He was sleeping in the castle he lived in with Xanthous when he became king of the demons. The sound was very concerning so Elrik started wandering around looking for the source of the sound. When he got to Xanthous's room, that's when the sound was really loud. Feeling panicked Elrik opened the door and quietly stepped inside the room. When he approached Xanthous's bed, he realized the sound was coming from him. He turned on the lamp, and saw Xanthous thrashing about in his sleep. But worst of all Xanthous crying and screaming, clearly caught in the throws of a horrible nightmare. Elrik felt his heart break for him, and calmly tried to wake him up. "Xan? It's me Elrik, please wake up. You're okay, it's alright I'm here." Elrik said as he gently shook Xanthous. He eventually jolted awake and was breathing heavily, then Xanthous started sobbing. Elrik brought him into his arms and rocked him back and forth. "it's okay Xan, you're okay. I'm here, you're safe now." Elrik whispered softly into his ear trying to help him relax. "it was s-so r-real." Xanthous cried, as he remembered his nightmare. "everything's okay now, do you want me to stay with you?" Elrik asked, as Xanthous calmed down a little. "I'd like that, I just don't think I could be alone right now." Xanthous said, shaking slightly. Elrik got into bed with him, and held him in his arms. Xanthous felt so safe, that he was able to fall asleep without any more nightmares.
