Yes. [He says it before he thinks much about it, though. He hasn't liked the idea of being on his own for so long, beside the fact that he basically sequesters himself. But still there's a sort of shame in admitting that he even has bad dreams; he says it to Boone, though. Maybe he's drunk, or maybe he already seems like a good guy to trust.]
[But that would also be shit, because he wouldn't want anything bad to happen to him.]
[He looks over at Boone. And then, almost as if it wants to make Niko blunder with what he says, the dog gets up to hop off the bed now that Boone's moved. That's what stops Niko from making sure Boone knows that being his friend might mean bad things come to him.] Might be good to have someone watch my back. [Is what he says instead.]
