Michael - You Have a Nightmare

You were running throughout your house looking for Michael. You didn't understand what was happening, but you knew someone was in your home trying to steal your wonderful baby girl. You were screaming at the top of your lungs for Michael and your daughter, but you couldn't find either one of them. Every time you would turn a corner a new hallway would appear as if you were in a fun house. Suddenly you could hear you daughter crying, and you felt the panic rise in your throat and adrenaline coursing through your veins. You started running, frantically searching for her. You kept seeing a shadowy figure wearing a black hoodie appearing by doorways and you could hear a sinister laugh echoing throughout the dark hallway. Suddenly the dark figure disappeared and you heard an ear piercing scream come from your daughter. You fell to the ground sobbing and let out a blood curdling scream in frustration and began calling out to whoever was trying to harm your baby.

"What do you want from me?!" You tugged at your hair in exasperation.

"Please, don't hurt my baby! Take me instead! Please! I beg of you!" You screamed.

Suddenly you feel someone shaking you by your shoulders and your eyes fly open to find Michael's eyes looking at you full of concern and confusion.

"Y/N, it was just a dream. You're okay." He pulls you flush against his chest comfortingly.

"M-Mikey? Where's Y/D/N?" You ask before wiggling free from his grip to slip one of your -actually his- sleep shirts on.

"Y/D/N? She's asleep in her nursery. Why?" He furrows his brows in confusion and makes grabby hands at you to pull you back to him.

"Someone wants to hurt her. I need to find her. I can't let him get her. I-I have to be there for her. I'm her mother." You ramble before you feel hot tears falling against your cheeks.

"Baby, come here." Michael coos before grabbing your wrist and pulling you back against him. He sits up, so you're sitting in his lap. He pulls your hair to the side, wipes your tears from your eyes and kisses your neck gently before looking at you. "What are you talking about? Nobody is here to hurt our little princess. If someone even tried they would have to go through her big bad papa." He smirks trying to lighten the mood.

You giggle at his joke, but then you remember the situation and try to wiggle free from his grasp again.

"Just let me g-"

"Y/N. Stop. Look at me, and tell me what is going on." He grabs your chin gently and turns your face towards him.

"Mikey, I had a nightmare someone was trying to hurt her. The house was weird. It was like a fun house from a carnival, and every time I went down another hallway I ended up more confused than when I started! Then I saw someone in a black hoodie and he just laughed and then I heard Y/D/N screaming and crying, and I couldn't get to her! I couldn't save my baby girl! I'm her mother! It's my job to always protect her, and I couldn't even do that! I'm an awful mom a-"

"You're not an awful mom, Y/N." Michael interjects.

"Yes I am!" You exclaim before your bottom lip begins to quiver.

"Y/N, listen to me. You had a nightmare. All new parents have these types of nightmares, okay? I've had them too, but I promise you our little angel is asleep in her room right now, and she has the best mommy in the world who is having a panic attack right now, because she couldn't find her in her nightmare." He kisses your cheek gently before intertwining your fingers with his.

"You've had nightmares about this too? Why didn't you tell me?" You rub your thumb over his knuckles soothingly.

"Because I didn't know how to explain that in my nightmares I couldn't protect the two people I love most in this world." He answers sheepishly.

"Oh, Michael." You place your hand on his cheek and look lovingly into his eyes. "You're an amazing father, and an amazing husband. We couldn't be any luckier." You smile as you see a smile etch it's way across his face.

He leans his forehead against yours and whispers "I love you, Y/N."

"I love you too, Mikey." You smile before he lays back down pulling you against his side.

"Let's get some rest, okay? Because it's 4 in the morning, and our little angel will be up in approximately one hour." He pulls the blankets over the two of you and kisses your head before nuzzling his head in the crook of your neck.

"Goodnight, baby." You drape your arm across his side to hold yourself as close as possible to him.

"Goodnight, princess." He murmurs against your skin before pressing a wet kiss to your skin.
