ROBINS POV:

The sound of the mindflayer' roar filled the room, I was alone in the mall. No Dustin no Steve, completely alone against this thing and I was shaking. I was in this exact same situation before but this time I am alone and I don't think I can survive this myself. I was hiding behind one of the counters hoping that I would go unnoticed because I didn't have anything to defend myself with. It was quiet for a bit and all I could hear was my increasing breath.

Suddenly in a blink of an eye the mind flayer was right in front of me and it's loud roars filled my ears as I screamed seeing one of its arms shoot out towards me

I jolt awake in my bed.

"Rob you okay?" I look next to me to see that I woke up y/n. Seeing her with me made me feel safer and I was glad to have her with me.

"Yeah I'm okay I promise" I put on a fake smile as I placed a kiss on her head "go back to sleep pretty" I tell her and she just nods closing her eyes again.

I'm glad she was already half asleep since if y/n was fully awake she would've been aware of my shaking hands under the sheets

I've been having this same dream every night since the mall incident and I found that Y/n was a comfort for me because usually without her I wouldn't be able to have a blink of sleep after another nightmare like that.

I felt myself change, I was afraid of loud noises because my mind thinks that if there's a loud noise the mindflayer would either find me or it was the mindflayers roar near me. Before I liked being alone, to be honest before I met y/n and Steve I was alone most of the time. No one really cared to talk to me and most wouldn't even bat an eye towards me, and I was okay with that. Now it was a different story. I needed to be around people all the time because I was afraid that I'd find myself right back in the situation where I had no one to fight with.

My worst nights were when I was alone. I would be home alone and my footsteps seemed to have increased in sound and the creak of the floorboards made me feel nervous. I was afraid to go into the rooms of my own house out of fear that the mind flayer would be in one of them. It was hard to eat without thinking the mind flayer was behind me waiting for the perfect moment to make its move, it was hard to shower without thinking the mind flayer was going to be behind the curtain when i'm done. Worst of all it was hard to sleep. I could no longer sleep by myself anymore, I would be shaking in my own bed till my eyes gave up on me. Once I would fall asleep I would find myself reliving that lonesome death. Once I woke up I couldn't go back to sleep so I usually just stayed awake making sure I didn't make much noise. The only time I do fall asleep after those kinds of dreams would be when I slept with y/n.

I truly believe she is my guardian angel because with her it's the only time I could actually sleep after a nightmare. It pains me to keep this a secret from her though because I hated lying to her. But I didn't want to worry her. She just became my girlfriend and I don't want to scare her away with my issues.

The next day I woke up to a soft touch. I open my eyes to see y/n smiling brightly at me while caressing my face.

She was gorgeous. The sun was hitting her from behind and she looked unreal. She warmed my heart and it picked up pace just by waking up next to her.

"Good morning!" She smiles as she presses thousands of kisses all over me making me laugh brightly.
