《The black phone ~imagines~》Nightmares (finney)
Advertisement
Finney was prone to nightmares, I mean isn't everyone? But for my poor finney they sometimes got too real.
As we slept soundly in our shared bed. Finney was restless. He'd always been a restless sleeper but tonight it was bad. The worst I've seen
I could feel the sweat pouring off his body
He was having a nightmare. About the grabber. This time the grabber got y/n. She was all he had and the thought of her being taken scared him.
He could never tell her though. She'd tell him he was crazy.
In this nightmare, finney went to save her. Once he reached the basement he saw the grabber stabbing her, over and over until every drop of blood in her body was drained
He woke up, screaming. Tears threatening to spill.
I jumped up, pulling him close to me. I could feel his heart racing.
Y/n- hey, finney it's ok, it's ok
He slowly calmed down.
I understood what he was going through. I dealt with it for months after robin.
Finney- Shit, I'm sorry for waking you
Y/n- finney, I told you it's ok
Finney- no it's not, you can't get a single night of peace with me!
Y/n- ok? It doesn't bother me finney!
As selfish as it was, I liked doing this. I liked comforting him. It made me feel needed. God it felt so good to be needed. At home my mother never acknowledged me and my dad hates me so for finney to need my 10 minutes of attention every night was amazing
Finney- he got you this time
We had now moved to the kitchen, I made him a warm cup of tea and sat next to him. He likes to talk about the nightmares
Y/n- what did he do to me?
He didn't answer. It must've been bad.
Y/n- he can't hurt you, or me , anymore finney. You killed him. He's gone, forever
It seemed like that was all he needed to hear. Just the reassurance that everything was ok. That nothing bad would happen.
That night I held him in my arms as he drifted back to sleep. Kissing his cheek, I slowly moved away from him and rested my head on my pillow before falling into a deep sleep, ready for my nightmares to being

Millennial Mage (A Slice of Life, Progression Fantasy)
The world is wild, untamed. Humanity thrives, but only in isolated, well defended cities, ever shrinking as the wilds slowly reclaim all that was taken. The most capable magic users are raised up as Mages to serve mankind, further their cause, and defend them over the course of millennia. Tala is freshly graduated from the magic academy and determined to make her own way in the world. She hopes to pay off her massive debts, quickly, but still plans on living each and every day to the fullest. Too bad the Academy left some glaring holes in her practical education. Loath to let that slow her down, and with no patience for a standard, low-paid apprenticeship (intended to fill many of those knowledge gaps), Tala strives to learn and improve as rapidly as she can on her own. Her unorthodox methods for preserving her own life allow her to take greater risks in search of profit and advancement, much to the surprise of those around her.

The devil's got my number
Dalton was always a nice place. Always had been. When that new couple moved here, we were all ecstatic. They were wealthy, but not arrogant, always willing to help out their neighbors. All around the perfect kind of migrant. They brought a child with them. Jacob. He was beautiful, just like his parents. He had his mother's beautiful hair, and his father's beautiful eyes. But he was different. He wasn't social, or nice, like his parents. He mainly kept to himself. Until one day he didn't. Strange tales, of the boy running around the neighborhood at night started to pop up. Of sacrificing children and dark rituals. The average person dismissed it as just that, rumors. But those of us that had seen the boy, knew the truth. His eyes were no longer the deep, vibrant color of his father. They were the green of rot, his skin the color of a corpse. The devil had taken the boy, and, like a disease, he was spreading his curse.
