Jerome and Jeremiah Valeska ~ 10

I came home, crashed onto my bed and turned my tv on. Still in my uniform yet I had no effort to move or get out of it. Gotham came up on the screen, the show I couldn't stop watching, my comfort. I wished so desperately that I could switch worlds, dimensions. Live in Gotham and not have a care in the world about this life. There was so much interesting things going on in Gotham yet my life here was so plain, boring and bland.

I soon fell asleep the exhaustion taking over me after a long day. However when I woke I noticed it wasn't the same surroundings as I last saw. I wasn't in my room that's for sure and I wasn't on my bed. The room I was in was red and black, jero-
Wait Jerome's signature sign was on the wall right above me, I noticed the canopy bed I lay upon was also covered with crimson silk sheets. It was the moment I heard a slight knock on the door and two men had walked in. Jerome and Jeremiah was the two people. That's the moment I knew I wasn't home. They acted as if I was meant to be there, that it was normal. Yet I sat here in confusion and disorientation.
"Darling? Are you okay, you seem a little confused."
Jeremiah spoke up first, Jerome's face also turning into concern. I couldn't get any words out to mutter back to him so I just stared.
"Sweets?"
Jerome said in concern it was the first time I had seen him look like this in Gotham they never showed anything like this for Jerome.
"Speak to us... we can't help unless you tell us what's goin' on sweets"
He said slowly coming towards me Jeremiah staying in his current place at the door.

I still hadn't spoke a word yet and it had been 20 minutes, Jerome and Jeremiah were starting to get more and more concerned. They were now beside me on the bed trying to comfort me, help me. Eventually after a few more minutes I was out of my shaken faze.
"Woah"
Was the first thing I said out loud. They both looked at me in confusion now, Jerome let out a small nervous laugh.
"What's wrong sweets, you had us going even more loopy than we already are!"
He said Jeremiah even smiled a little at this. His fingers still going through my hair. Jerome staring at me though.
"Oh I'm fine boys, just had a strange dream"
I lied not wanting to stir anymore confusion as I was trying to keep this as normal and keep it going for as long as I could. The thing that shocked me the most was Jerome leaning in to kiss me and saying
"Good, we love you don't want anything to go wrong do we brother"
Jeremiah kissed my neck crease and said
"For once I agree with you"

I was quite happy with how I woke up after all, I was with my favourite people and I seemed to definitely be their favourite person. And I was comfortable with that.
