#10 - He has a nightmare

Niall:

You had noticed that Niall, that always used to be lying with his arms around you, suddenly turned around in the middle of the night, moved far away from you, which wasn't usual at all. You were awake, just thinking, when you suddenly heard his breath starting to speed up. You turned around so you were facing him. "No..." His voise was little and terrified. You quickly sat up in the bed and tried to figure out what to do. He moved in his sleep, letting go of small gasps. You tried to wake him up by patting his cheeks. As it finally worked out, he opened his eyes and sat up, sweat running from his forehead. He stared into the halfdark room, and you could see small tears making their way down his cheeks. "Niall..." you put an arm around him and pulled him in. He rested his head to your chest, his shoulders trembling uncontrollable. "It was just a nightmare. You are okay," you hushed as you ran a hand over his hair, trying to comfort him. "It's okay. Everything's okay."

Harry:

This evenings television was really getting bored. You and your boyfriend had settled down to watch a movie that turned out to be not as interesting as you hoped it would. He fell asleep with his head in your lap halfway through, and now that it was over, he was still sleeping. You ran a hand through his hair and smiled down at him. It felt good to have him back home after a long time of him being away on tour. You were just about to move his head from your lap so you could get yourself ready to go to bed, as he suddenly grabbed your arm and just held tighter and tighter. "Harry, stop, it hurts," you said trying to make him let go. He started breathing heavily, and you tried to shake him. You were getting a bit worried. "Harry, don't do that. It's not funny." You finally realised that he wasn't even awake and wasn't trying to make fun. He was having a nightmare. You tried to shake him. "Harry, wake up!" You gave him a slap on his cheek, and he opened his eyes straight after, breathing fast. As he saw your face, he sat up and pulled you in for a hug. "Oh my god, you're okay," he breathed out relieved.

Louis:

You couldn't sleep. You were a bit worried, since Louis had been feeling sick all day, and he seemed out of himself. Now, in the middle of the night, you were lying awake, thinking. He was just besides you, with his hand resting on your stomach and his head near yours. You could feel his breath on your neck, and it made you shiver. You finally decided to just try and sleep. You had just fallen asleep as you felt a light slap on your arm. You woke up again and realised that Louis' face was buried in his pillow. You weren't able to see very much, but this is what you thought you saw. He was shaking and some noises escaped him. You tried to wake him up. "Louis? Are you okay?" He turned around and his eyes opened widely just as he let a loud mix between a shout and a scream go. He was sweating and looked absolutely terrified. You lied down beside him and pulled him over to you, so his head was resting on your shoulder. "Did you have a nightmare?" you asked, trying to sound as calm as possible. Your heart was beating really fast now. He didn't answer, but you could feel him nod. "It's okay now," you assured him, and he was already fast asleep.

Liam:

 You were sitting in the big chair in your livingroom, on your boyfriend's lap. He had fallen asleep while you were sitting there. The two of you had just been talking, but at one point you were just quiet and then he fell asleep. You ran a finger down his cheek and over his bottomlip, just admiring him. You put your head on his shoulder and closed your eyes. You were very and were already half asleep after just a little while. "Y/N!" You were woken up by the sound of your name. You looked around in the room before looking down at Liam. Sweat was running down his forehead. You moved off of his lap. "Liam? Liam, are you okay?" He suddenly opened his eyes and was clearly trying to catch his breath. "What... just... happened..." he whispered to himself before looking up at you. "Are you okay?" you asked him and sat down besides him. He nodded slowly. "I think so." You gave him a small smile before pulling him in for a hug.

Zayn:

"No, leave me alone..." You heard a distant mumbling frm somewhere in your little apartment. You guessed it was your boyfriend since he was the only other person there. "Stop, go away..." You went to your bedroom where you thought he was sleeping. Yes, he was lying on the bed, all covered up, but he seemed very uncomfortable and restless. You went over to the bed. "No..." he whispered. "No!" His voice powered up, and you tried to shake him to wake him up. You knew that he tended to talk in his sleep and that he had bad nightmares, but you had never actually experienced one of them. "Zayn, wake up," you said. He turned around and hit you on your arm, hard. You sighed before shaking him roughly. "Come on!" You got another hit, but didn't really care, even though it hurt. "Zayn!" And then he woke up. He looked at you with big eyes, trying to catch his breath. "Are you okay?" you asked him, and he sighed before just cuddling up to your chest. "It was just... a nightmare," you mumbled and put an arm around you.
