Katsuki tossed and turned in bed, mumbling something under his breath as he slept. The blonde's brows were more furrowed than usual, calloused hands gripping the sheets. Nightmares seemed to follow him around a lot more than usual lately, but he refused to talk to you about it. He even avoided sleeping with you because he didn't want you to know of his struggle, knowing it'd just make you worry. But it seemed the cat would be thrown out of the bag tonight.

A bead of sweat rolled down his temple as he squeezed his scarlet eyes shut even tight, his breathing and heartbeat accelerating. His restlessness wasn't something new, but this was a whole new level.

A deep inhale of air reverberated through the serenity of the moonlit room, the light slipping through the curtains making the tiny specs of dust in the room sparkle and twinkle under the moon's wake. Katsuki's eyes shot open as he sat up, clutching his heart. The blonde grit his teeth as he squeezed the spot, scar burned onto it.

"D-Dammit-" He was safe. You were safe, lying next to him. As he remembered that fact, his irises traveled to your figure, hoping he didn't wake you.
