A rainy night in a cave
Aether x reader
-Fluff, reader has problems with sleeping outside for the first time
You were trembling in a small cave in the middle of the woods. You, Aether and Paimon were on a quest, which was nothing unusual for them, but it was for you. This was the first time you joined the traveler on one of his adventures after he was nagging you about it for days now. It wasn't a long trip you thought, but in the big excitement you forgot about one of your weaknesses. You're not the best at sleeping at new places, mostly not where you haven't been... And now you're literally outside, in the rain among trees, animals, and monsters near by. How can your friends sleep so easily like this... You slowly sit up after moving around for quite a while. You're looking out of your temporary residence, how the trees are moving in the wind, and how the water is dripping down in front of you to the wet ground making a big mud puddle in front of you. You didn't notice that the boy behind you also woke up because of the thunder. Y/n? What are you doing...?"-he's rubbing his eyes with a tired expression-"Is there something wrong?" -he asks. "No.. No-Sorry did I wake you?" - you turn around to look at him. His eyes were glowing in the small light of the moon. You would adore it some more but a big rumbling from the sky makes you jump. Aether giggles at you quietly. "You can't sleep right? Is it because of the rain?" - He whispers because the small companion is still sleeping. "No... Well yes that too. I just... Have a difficult time sleeping outside and stuff. But it's okay I fall asleep in a bit I'm sure-! I mean we did a lot of walking today. " - you smile awkwardly. "Oh, I'm sorry-Why didn't you told me? We could've look for something more house like."-he sighs, but his expression is worried. "No it's really fine, don't worry about it!"- you insist. He puts his hand on his chin and stays quiet for a bit. "Well you can come a bit closer to me, if you're worried about the monsters that is. It might help that I'm right next to you."-he smiles gently and takes your hand. "Let's try to sleep, okay? We have lots of walking to do tomorrow." You would insist, he's being too generous for such a childish problem, but his idea might work. So you just go with his idea. When you both are finally laying down again, face to face, he smiles at you once again to reassure you that everything will be okay. He slowly takes your hand in his, and put your hands between the two of your heads. It makes you a bit flustered, but you just give him a shy smile and try to sleep. You troubled him enough already."Good night y/n, I promise to protect you.
