I sighed in relief as Wally shut up.

Thank the gods.

Kaldur sighed. "Percy, please try to sleep some more."

I shook my head. "I don't want to."

"I have an idea." Wally said.

"The world is ending."

"Shut up Dick."

"What is it Wally?" Kaldur asked.

"How about one of us sleeps with her? Like a teddy bear?"

Oh gods. I might actually murder him.

"Rock paper scissors?" Dick questioned.

"Yep. Rock paper scissors shoot!"

Their was a bit of groaning from Wally. So I'm guessing he lost.

He's really bad at games like this.

"Guys. I'm fine. Just let me be."

"You need to sleep Percy. This isn't healthy. Especially if this happens a lot." My cousin said.

And by cousin I mean mother hen.

"Guys!"

"Come on Kaldur. Rock paper scissors shoot!"

They repeated that three times.

Before Dick giggled. "Have fun being a teddy bear Kaldur."

Why?

Just why?

"I can sleep on my own. I usually go back to sleep anyway."

Then again I usually don't have nightmares of everyone telling me it was all my fault.

Which it is. I'm not denying that.

"Too bad Percy. We already decided. Now off to sleep with you!" Dick yelled.

Surprised Bruce hasn't been woken up yet. If he's even here.

"It is fine Percy. I do not mind. But if it makes you uncomfortable I can sleep on the chair." Kaldur spoke, chest rumbling gently.

Why don't you guilt trip me?

"I-It's fine." I cursed at myself.

Why the Hades am I stuttering?

Oh wait... probably cause I'll choke him or something in my sleep.

Kaldur gently laid me in my nest before climbing in.

And again that feeling washed over me.

Strangely it seemed to affect Kaldur too. Cause he glanced around nervously.

I chuckled softly, almost inaudible.

I know what's going on.

But I don't know why.

The Atlantean made sure to keep a respectful distance from me, which I really appreciated.

But eventually I decided if I fell asleep I might need some solid contact.

"Kaldur?"

"Yes Percy?" He responded, even though his pale green eyes were closed.

"Do you...do you mind if I grab onto your jacket? Sometimes if I'm holding onto something it can help me sleep." My face was probably red.

Dam it Percy. Stop being a teenage girl!

You're a seasoned veteran demigod...

Who happens to be a teenage girl.
