This was happening more often... Every night, now... He just hoped it wouldn't end up real...

Brian and Tim were running from Jay, like before. Jay would throw stuff, say stuff, but they knew not to give in.

Tim tripped, Jay stabbing him in the head and chest. Brian growled loudly, tackling Jay and snapping his neck, then running over to Tim in worry.

Brian sat down, placing Tim's bloody head on his shoulder and placing his body on Brian's lap, Tim chuckling slightly.

"I always knew I was clumsy.." He joked quietly, looking up at Brian, a single tear running down his face. Brian held him close, tears were streaming down his cheeks, yet he kept a calm face.

"Don't joke about this... Please... I can't lose you..." Brian mumbled, staring into Tim's light blue eyes. Tim just chuckled in response, slipping in and out of consciousness.

"No.. Don't.. Don't leave.. Please.." At this point, Brian was about to burst into tears, hugging Tim gently and mumbling unknown words.

"Bri.. Stay strong, okay..? Slender and the others still need you to be strong.." Tim gasped out, taking his final warm breath.

"No..! No please..! Tim... Wake up... You can't... No..." Brian mumbled, finally bursting into tears.

He wouldn't leave, not until he died. There was no reason for him to keep going as if nothing happened.

His best friend was dead. The love of his life was dead, and he couldn't do anything about it.

It was HIS fault..

Brian awoke with a jolt, covered in sweat. Of course the dream wasn't real. But it felt.. So familiar to him..

He looked at his alarm clock, 7:29 it read. Brian got up and began to get dressed. Slender needed them pretty early today, and he needed to wake Timothy, seeing as they shared a room.

After he got dressed, he walked over to Timothy's bed, gently shaking him awake. "Tim, hey, time to wake up." Brian said gently.

Tim slowly woke up, smiling tiredly at Brian, Brian smiling back. "Get dressed, I'll make you some coffee, kay?" Brian told him.

"Kay.. Can you get my pills out?" Tim asked, Brian nodding as he left. Brian smiled at Toby, who had gotten some coffee and Tim's pills out,Toby smiling back and getting up.

"What was up with you last night? You kept whimpering, even started crying." Toby asked him with a concerned face. "Were you hurt?"

"No, just a nightmare, I'm fine." Brian replied, getting out a cup of ice water. He looked back at Toby, who seemed to be staring off into space.

"What does Slender need us for? It's way too early, especially for Tim." Brian asked Toby, slightly annoyed at Slender.

"Something about going on a car ride somewhere, he can sleep then. We're going in an hour, so pack anything to keep you company." Toby replied, pulling off his muzzle and taking a drink of some orange juice.

"Ah. Makes sense. You know someone's going to have to help him, right? Seeing as his disorder gives him insomnia."

"Yeah. You need to. He trusts you more."

"Well.. That's.. Fine." Brian said with a huff, Tim walking down the stairs, putting on his white mask. Toby looked over at Tim, sitting him down and giving him the coffee and pills.

Toby was the mother of the proxies. That was for sure.

Tim smiled slightly, taking his pills and staring at the ceiling.

"We should be going. Tim, if you want, you can sleep while we're traveling. It'll be awhile." Toby said, Tim nodding and getting up.
