The school day ended, so the bus was dropping you off. You politely thanked the driver and started walking home, knowing that it was only a block away from the bus stop.

You finally arrived, but from outside the front door, you heard a scream in pain. You gasped and yanked the door open with all your might. As you were running down the hallway into the main room, you heard another tormented scream…

And then it was silent.

You found your father laying on the floor. His usual slick, blond hair was disheveled. He had multiple wounds and blood was staining his clothes. Next to him was his brother, in the same horrible condition. His silver hair was also a mess. Cuts blemished his pale skin and a stream of blood flowed from his mouth. You began to cry at the sight. You never wanted to see your dad or uncle hurt in any way; because you loved them so much.

You helplessly watched them, realizing that the two of them didn’t look like they were breathing. You were only a child, terrified, and had no idea what to do.

While you were crying and grieving, a shadow began to loom over your small form. This caught your attention, so you turned around.

Behind you stood a very tall man, dressed in all black. The only thing you could see were his cold, dark eyes.

You were frozen in fear gaping up at him. 

All of a sudden he lunged toward you, making you scream for your life.

* * * * *

You jolt awake, a loud gasp come out of you. You're sweating, your thin night gown clinging onto your sticky body. It only takes you a few seconds to start bursting into tears. You jump out of bed and take off running through the house.

"Vati!" Tears run down your face. You find your father in his office doing paper work at his desk.

"Liebling, what’s wrong?" He stops what he's doing, scooping you up in his strong arms. "Oh, ________. Why are you crying, baby?" Ludwig pulls out a handkerchief from his shirt pocket, using it to wipe your runny nose. You sniff and hug him tightly. Even though you're safe in your father's arms, you still feel a little scared.

"Did you have a bad dream?" Ludwig asks. You nod, wiping some tears away with your sleeve. You look into his beautiful, blue eyes... the ones you love the most.

"Ja… you and Onkel Gilbert were dead. A big, scary man killed both of you…" You confess. Ludwig’s serious expression softens, and he gives you a tender hug.

"It’s okay, ________. I’m still here… can’t you hear my heartbeat?" Ludwig gently pushes your head to his chest, letting you listen to the sound of his heart beating. But then you remember something, causing you to pull back.

"But what about Onkel? Is he okay?" You ask anxiously. Ludwig smiles and puts you down. He holds your small hand in his bigger one, walking down the hall to Gilbert’s room. He cracks the door open and you both peer in. "Look, he’s right there." Ludwig points to his brother.

Gilbert sleeps with his giant Gilbird pillow, snoring loudly. 

"Onkel is so silly when he’s sleeping!" You giggle. Ludwig laughs quietly closing the door. "See? We’re okay, ________."

"Can I sleep with you... in case the nightmares come back?" 

"Ja, of course, Liebling."

Later, you curl up next to your father in bed. Ludwig strokes your hair, and you fall asleep again.

* * * * *

You're so relieved that nightmares aren’t real. You always need your family… even if Onkel Gilbert is the loudest snorer you know.

- the end ♥

It took me forever to find a preview picture of Germany. I mean, this is a child!Reader. It has to be somewhat appropriate!! All of them either had him shirtless, or him and Italy... doing stuff.

Thank you for reading! :D

AND WHY THE HELL DOES THIS HAVE SO MANY FAVORITES?!?! THANK YOU SO MUCH, EVERYONE!!!!!!
