I swear this is the last one. I’m very sorry-
Okay basic plot of this one- what if, during prisms nightmare, the two were already dating? ooooooo ahhhhhhh
Idk I thought it would be cool to try- kinda failed tbh but oh well ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Slowly, the world faded into view as Paradox woke up. While initially, he hadn’t a clue what woke him, it was obvious after a couple more seconds.
Prism’s squirming had woken him up.
Paradox just sighed- he had learned to live with his boyfriend’s constant energy, but this time felt… off. It felt desperate.
And that’s when he heard the words.
Half consciously muttered, yes, but in the darkness, paradox was able to clearly make them out.
Paradox sat up, looking down at prism as he squirmed, his arm clutching his pillow like life or death.
Slips of paper fell down from the ceiling, falling around the two. Paradox scrambled to pick them up, reading through them frantically.
“paradox, comfort your man! Give him a cuddle!”
“Paradox!!! Comfort prism!!! Or at least wake him up!!!”
“NOOOO NOT THE NIGHTMARE paradox do something :0”
“Okay, okay, I will… calm down you idiots.” Paradox muttered, tossing the (largely) useless slips away.
“Pris- sonic…” paradox muttered, getting louder as he started to attempt to shake prism awake, “love, wake up. You’re having a nightmare.” He continued, as prism stirred, still muttering.
Without warning, prism shot up. Paradox’s scream overlapped with Prisms as he shouted “Sonic!”, surprised at the sudden movement.
Prism muttered discontentedly as he shook, trying to figure out where he was, what had happened. A small laugh escaped from him as he took a breath, stopping his shaking and painting the smile back onto his face.
“I’m fine. All good here!” Prism turned, his voice shaky with concealed fear and eyes watery with unshead tears. “Just dreamt that i- lost a plate of chili dogs!” He lied frantically.
Paradox’s face wore (a slightly softer version of) the distrusting scowl it normally did at those words. “Do you think I’m that stupid?” He deadpanned.
“No. Heh.” Prism muttered, turning his gaze down to stare at his hands as they nervously traced the tech placed on his gloves. His ears flicked back nervously: “Gee, I can’t hide anything from you, huh?” He laughed, humor absent from his tone.
Paradox reached out a hand, softly grabbing his boyfriend’s arm. The touch alone seemed to break something in prism. He looked closer to tears now than 30 seconds earlier.
“Sonic.” Paradox began, lightly spinning prism to face him. “I don’t want you to hide things from me. I love you.” Paradox seemed to grow more concern with each word, a light flush spreading across his cheeks, unknown to the other in the darkness. “I know the shatterverse was… difficult. for both of us. So… are you okay?”
Prism quietly looked at Paradox, taking in the concern on his face. The small frown, the soft eyes, the care.
without thinking, he threw himself into paradox and clung to him, muttering, “I will be. Thanks, shadow.”
Paradox returned the hug with no hesitation, planting a small kiss on prisms forehead as he pulled him down under the covers to cuddle him to sleep again.
Before Prism could fully drift off, he asked “wake me up again if I have a nightmere?”
“Of course.” Paradox responded, carefully petting the top of Prisms head in an effort to soothe him to sleep.
“Thanks, shadow. Love you.” Prism muttered, as he drifted off to sleep.
