You and Derek were asleep in your bed, Derek having just returned from a case.

As you were sleeping peacefully, you felt Derek start slightly shaking and trembling in his sleep.

Naturally, you woke up worried about your boyfriend. He was fussing and sweating, meaning he was having a nightmare.

Suddenly, before you had the chance to wake him up, he jolted awake and looked around.

When his eyes landed on you, he sighed in relief and wrapped his arms around you.

"I love you." He whispered.
