you woke up a bit distorted, your face wet with tears. you had another nightmare. it was the same one you'd been having for the past few weeks.

you had your phone in your hand now, finger hovering over the send button on your message to spencer. he'd really helped you lately, always coming over when you needed some comfort after a really bad nightmare.

but this was different. you two were amongst your friends. the team was staying the night in a hotel due to a case that was far from home. it wasn't like you two were breaking any rules, you just didn't want anyone to assume anything. at least not until you were both sure of yourselves.

your phone then dinged, breaking you from your thoughts. it was spencer, his message read "nightmare?". it was then, that you remembered you'd been in the chat the entire time, showing you as typing on the other end.
