Work Text:
I toss and turn inside my bed, unable to sleep even in the dead of night. I turn to look at the clock, it’s 2:57 am.
Once again, I try to rest my head to go to sleep but I’m struck with insomnia.
Suddenly, my phone rings. I quickly turn over to my bedside table and see that my best friend, Nagito is calling me.
I pick up my phone and swipe right, confused why he is calling me this late.
“Nagito? Why are you calling me this late?” I ask, concern in my voice.
“I… had a nightmare,” He mutters, his voice was shaky.
“Would you like me to head to your dorm?”
“Yes please,”
I hang up, I quickly put on a sweater and sweatpants, grab my bag, and run out my door to his dorm.
I quickly pass through the hallways to his room, as soon as I arrive I knock gently on the door. Seconds later Nagito opens it, he’s shaking and he looks scared. I enter his dorm
and immediately hug him, he seems stunned for a moment but hugs me back. A smile forms on his face.
“Hey… Nagito, would you like to watch your favorite movie together? Perhaps that could comfort you.” I suggested softly.
Nagito nods, we both head over to his couch. I took a seat near the middle and Nagito sat down next to me. I took the remote and played Nagito’s favorite movie, the one he’s always loved ever since we were kids.
The movie began to play, I looked over at Nagito. I could already tell he was beginning to feel better, he looked very content and wasn’t shaking as much. I noticed his hand was still a bit shaky so I lowered my hand from my lap to hold his.
Nagito looked up at me and gave me a small, yet genuine smile. I gently smiled back.
After a while, Nagito was completely absorbed into the movie. Even though we watched it together like a million times, Nagito still never gets bored of it.
I slowly start to get entangled into the movie as well. Despite the fact we always watch together, it’s an interesting movie.
45 minutes pass, Nagito is asleep on my shoulder and I slowly feel myself falling asleep as well. I gently close my eyes.
“Goodnight, Nagito,” I murmur, despite knowing he is asleep, and I fall into my slumber.
