I grabbed an extra blanket at the corner of the bed, draping it over Jax's body. I pulled him up the bed more as I scooted under the covers again, closing my eyes.
But before I could fall asleep, I felt a tall figure tuck themself into the bed, their thin arms reaching for my waist and pulling me close against a hard chest. A soft grin spread throughout my face as Jax nuzzled his head into the crook of my neck.
"G'night, (y/n)ie."
"Good night, Jaxxie."
~•~•~
Jasp was under the covers with me, hugging me as my face pressed against his chest. A huge grin was on my face as I nudged closer to him.
Gently, Jasper tilted my face up with two fingers, placing a tender and sweet kiss on my lips.
"I'll always love you, (y/n). Please never forget that."
Ba-dump. Ba-dump.
My heartbeat quickened as I shot up from the dream covers, walking into a corner. No.
Ba-dump. Ba-dump.
'We-ell,' Neko said. 'Wasn't tha-at such a nice dre-eam, mousie?"
And he slashed at my arm.
~•~•~
"No!" I shouted, sitting up immediately.
Or trying to.
The pair of arms around my waist tightened as Jax sat up. "(Y/n)!"
"No, no, no," I muttered. "No." My body started shaking as tear after tear flowed. I checked my arm where all my scars were and sure enough—there was a new one.
Four scars.
Four scars.
"No," I whimpered. "This can't be happening."
"(Y/n)," Jax said, grabbing my arm so I could stop looking at it. I couldn't help but flinch as tears blurred my vision. All I could even think about was Neko.
My breathing increased as the grip on my arm seemed to tighten, claws growing out of Nico's fingers. Was Nico always purple?
"(N/n)," Jax said softly, "It's me, Jax. Come on, you'll be okay. Come back to me. You Jaxxie is right here."
"Jax," I choked out.
"That's me," Jaxxie said softly. "Your purple jack@&$."
I laughed slightly at that, making Jax smile. "God, I love it so much when you're happy and smiling. You never fail to brighten up my day."
"Really?" I asked in a small voice.
"Really." Jax pulled me into his arms, tucking my face into his chest as we both sat up. I melted in his embrace as he rubbed circles onto my back. "I like you so much that whenever you're sad, I'm sad too."
I look up at him, frowning softly when I saw the small tears in his eyes.
"I like you, (y/n)."
My eyes widened at his confession. Gently, I grabbed his hand and squeezed it, avoiding his gaze. "I like you too, Jaxxie."
Jax pressed a hand to my lips and kissed it. "I'm glad. I like you way too much. But that means that you're not going anywhere without me."
"Deal."
