                I glared out of the window. I was in such a terrible mood right now. I just wanted to curl up under my blankets and never leave my bed again.

                “Theo?”

                I turned my head as my bedroom door opened and Thalia came in. I laid down, gripped my blankets, and rolled over continuously until I had become a human burrito.

                “Leave me alone.” My voice managed to crawl its way out from the depths of my blankets.

                “Theo, come on. Oliver is coming over. Come hang out with us. We can play pool and you can hustle Oliver until he’s in your debt for the rest of his life,” she said.

                “No. I want to be alone. Leave me alone Thalia,” I grumbled.

                “Fine, fine. But if you change your mind, we’ll be in the basement,” she said and left my bedroom.

                I closed my eyes, wishing I could fall asleep. But, while it taunted me, sleep did not actually come to me.

                My phone vibrated, causing me to jerk in surprise. I fished it out of my pocket and held it up to my ear.

                “Hello?”

                “Little Theodore,” Dimitri said cheerfully. “What are you doing right now?”

                “I’m being a human burrito,” I said.

                “Wrapped in your blankets, huh?”

                “Comfortably so.”

                “Well, little Theodore, would you like to grace me with your presence?” he asked.

                “No,” I growled out. “I want to be alone today, Dimitri. Please just leave me alone.”

                “You hurt my heart,” he said with a dramatic sigh.

                I mentally sighed, realizing that I was taking my bad mood out on him when he hadn’t done anything wrong. He may be incredibly obnoxious, but he didn’t deserve my anger.

                “I’m sorry. Look, I really just want to be alone right now, okay? We can hang out tomorrow,” I said.

                “Well, alright then darling. I suppose I shall sit here tragically alone for the rest of my day,” he said.

                Too tired to even feel guilty about that, I just shrugged. “You have your brother. Go play with him.” Without waiting for a response, I hung up my phone.

                I dropped my head against the pillow, shimmying down into my blankets even farther. Safe and warm in my little blanket cave, I closed my eyes and let my mind drift off into a fog that was somewhere between awake and asleep.

                Someone shook me and I groaned and cracked my eyes open. “Thalia, go away. I said I didn’t want to hang out with you guys,” I snapped.

                “Oh, you are in a foul mood little Theodore,” Dimitri said.

                I groaned again, dropping my face against my pillow. “What are you doing here? How did you get here so fast? We were literally on the phone two minutes ago.”

                “Fifteen,” he corrected. “We hung up, I got dressed, and I came here.”

                “Really?” I asked in surprise. “Fifteen?” Huh, I had really drifted off.

                “Really,” he said, gently peeling my blankets back to reveal my face. “Now what in the magnificent hell are you doing, dear?”

                “Being a human burrito,” I said, smacking his hand away and pulling the blankets back over myself. “It’s not a phase. It’s who I really am.”

                “I’m sure it is. Why are you in such a foul mood?” he asked.

                “I couldn’t sleep last night,” I grumbled. “Lack of sleep makes me cranky. And I can’t fall asleep to take a nap.”

                “Why couldn’t you sleep?” he asked, pulling the blankets back again.

                I sighed and rubbed my tired eyes, rolling over so that I was on my back. “Nightmare,” I mumbled.

                “To sleep- perchance to dream: Ay, there’s the rub, for in that sleep of death what dreams may come?” he said.

                “Is that Hamlet?” I asked. This boy had a freaking Hamlet quote for everything.

                “Indeed it is,” he said with a nod. “Hamlet feared killing himself for many reasons, one being the fear of dreams after death. When you’re alive, you wake up from a nightmare. But when you’re dead, you could experience that nightmare for the rest of eternity.”

                “You and your stupid Hamlet obsession,” I grumbled.

                “Turn that frown upside down!” he said cheerfully, leaning over and kissing me.

                “Why did you come here? I want to be alone,” I said.

                “Oh Mister Grumpypants,” he said, smirking at me.

                “You don’t want to be around me,” I said, rolling over.

                He forced me to face him again. “I have a 7 year old brother, little Theodore. I can handle cranky,” he assured me.

                “I just want to be alone,” I said.

                “Too bad!” he said happily. “You’re stuck with my fabulous self, darling.”

                I hesitated before shrugging. “Fine. If you won’t leave me alone, then shut up while I try to sleep.” As casually as I could, I added, “You might as well lie down with me.”

                “You have to unroll yourself, my wonderful little burrito of a boyfriend,” he said.

                I rolled my eyes before struggling out of my cave of blankets. Dimitri laid down next to me, pulling me into his arms and pulling the blankets over us.

                Relieved that Dimitri was here, I rested my head on his chest. He played with my hair, kissing my temple. Having him here soothed me, and made me less afraid of having more nightmares.

                “Go to sleep grumpy little Theodore,” he said.

                “Dimitri, I love you,” I said, my voice thick with sleep. He acted like he didn’t care about anything, but I had a feeling he knew that I had wanted him to come here. Something told me that he knew I wanted him to hold me while I slept.

                “Everyone does, dear,” he said, smirking. But there was affection in his eyes, and it made me smile as I drifted off to sleep in his arms.

A,N.- Alright I know it was random and short and kind of felt like it belonged in Changing Will (sorry, I'm still stuck in that writing mindset haha). Also, I know I said I was gonna write it yesterday, but my friends convinced me to go out. And then my roommate and I slept in for forever today. And then we went to the mall to ghetto shop for Christmas because we're broke college kids. And I just got back and wrote this quickly. Wooooo! 

Haha, so, yea. A little Theo and Dimitri. Not the best, but I hope you guys enjoy it regardless!
