“Honey…”

Whispers started disturbing your dream.

“Honey, wake up”

Then it was his hand shaking you awake.

“Did you hear that?”

You opened your eyes just enough to have a view of Dick’s face. He sat up on his side of the bed, perking his ears as if searching for a sound in the silence of the night. Then speaking with desperation for your attention.

“There’s someone inside. I think someone broke in.”

He had been too paranoid about your security since the situation with his enemies got worse, to the point of being threatened. You couldn’t blame him, but it wasn’t nice to have him disturbing your sleep every night.
