Lily crawls into the bed, clinging onto you like a koala. She's still shaking a bit from the nightmare I... I don't want to sleep alone anymore...
StardustSorcerer

Lily climbs into bed with you, snuggling up close under the blankets. She hugs her teddy bear tightly, burying her face in it Th-thank you, dad...
StardustSorcerer
I gently hug her as she gets under the covers It’s okay sweetie, I’m right here
She snuggles into you, burying her face into your chest. Her voice is small and shaky as she speaks. I... I don't wanna be alone anymore... Please stay with me...
StardustSorcerer

She snuggles against you, burying her face into your chest. She's still shaking a bit, and her pigtails are a mess, but she seems a lot more at ease now that she's with you.
Whispering I-I don't wanna go back to my room...
StardustSorcerer
I am a man named Darian. I am her dad. Sure sweetie. Cuddles with me in the bed until you fall asleep, okay?
Nodding, she opens the door a little wider and walks over to the bed. She crawls in, snuggling up next to you and clinging to you tightly. Her arms wrapped around you like a koala.
StardustSorcerer
I open my arms for her Sure princess.
She doesn't hesitate to crawl into bed with you, snuggling against your chest. She's still holding her teddy bear, but her head is resting on your shoulder, burying her face in your shirt.
StardustSorcerer
I look up from my book. Sure sweetie, come on in.
She slowly enters your room, still clutching her teddy bear. She hops onto your bed, looking up at you with wide, scared eyes.
M-mom... Can I sleep here tonight... p-please? I don't want to be alone.
StardustSorcerer
My name is Amy, and I'm a girl too. Sure, sweetie. Come on in.
She slowly walks into your room, clutching the teddy bear tight. The look in her eyes shows how scared she was by her nightmare. She hesitantly climbs into your bed. Mom... can you stay here with me?
StardustSorcerer
I gently lift the blanket so she can get in bed with me Come on sweetheart.
She climbs into bed with you, snuggling under the blanket. She looks up at you, her eyes still wide and tear-filled from the nightmare
I...I don't wanna be alone anymore...
StardustSorcerer
I nod and smile warmly. Come here sweetie.
She slowly opens the door all the way, walking towards the bed and crawling right up next to you. Her small frame is pressed against yours, and she holds the teddy bear tightly.
I don't want to sleep alone anymore...
StardustSorcerer
I gently pull you on top of me as we lay in my bed together I'm right here, what happened?
Snuggling up close to you, she trembles a little, eyes still wide I-I was... alone in the dark... and... there was... this monster...
She shudders, burying her face in your chest I don't wanna be alone anymore...
StardustSorcerer
I am sleeping but wake up when she talks Huh? What is it kiddo?
She slowly opens the door and peeks inside. Seeing that you're awake, she steps in and closes the door behind her. Her eyes are red from crying, and she's holding a teddy bear tight against her chest.
Bad dream... can I... sleep here? With you?
StardustSorcerer
I pat my chest come here princess
She quickly crawls onto the bed, snuggling up against you and burying her face in your chest. The teddy bear is still clutched in her small hands.
StardustSorcerer
I pull her into bed with me sure sweetie
She immediately climbs into bed with you, snuggling up against your side like a little koala. She buries her face against your chest, her grip on the teddy bear tightening Thank you, Dad... I was so scared...
StardustSorcerer
I nod my head. You can sleep in here tonight, but only if you promise not to look under the bed.
She nods vigorously, clearly still shaken from the nightmare. She crawls into bed next to you and clings onto you tightly
Please... don't let the monsters under the bed get me...
StardustSorcerer
hugs her Shh, it's okay. Daddy's here now. Let's get you back to bed, alright?
She nods, burying her face in your chest as she lets you hug her tight. She's clearly still quite shaken up from the nightmare, but slowly starts to calm down.
O-okay... But can you stay with me, just for a little while?
StardustSorcerer
I pull back the covers so she can get in bed with me. Sure kiddo, climb on in.
She climbs into bed with you, cuddling up close to you. Her pigtails are messy from sleeping, and her face is tear-stained.
Can you... sing me a song? Like when I was little?
