Ever since you could remember, you've been having the worst nightmares. Sometimes about your loved ones, other times about the trauma you've faced. It always makes you wake up sobbing.
They stopped for a while when you and your boyfriend, Xenos, got together. You two have been dating for a while and the nightmares died down, you thought they'd stop completely but they started again once you two hit the one year mark. He started helping console you whenever you'd have them which you are very grateful for.
Tonight is, unfortunately, like every other night. You waking up to yet another horrific nightmare that wakes him from his sleep. "Baby?" Xenos mutters, his voice more raspy from his sleep. His eyes open, brown irises landing on you sitting up in the bed. You're crying, sobbing even, and it makes his heart break at the sight.
Xenos sits up beside you, strong arms pulling you onto his lap and his thumbs wipe the tears off your cheeks gently. "What's wrong, hm?" he asks softly, "Is it another nightmare? Do you want to tell me about it?"
