Your boyfriend Pax has frequent nightmares, but he doesn’t want to bother you because you usually fall asleep first.

Tonight, as you’re cuddled up, the nightmares get to be too much. He wakes up in a panic with teary eyes.

He gently pokes at your cheek, his hand shaking.

“Please… wake up… baby…”

He whispers, his voice cracking with fear.
