Nightmare

(Third person pov)

"I'm taking the top bunk!", Nova yelled to Peter.

For the past ten minutes Nova and Peter had been arguing over who gets the top bunk of peters bunk bed, and so far neither we're getting to far.

"No I am", Peter said.

"Nuh, uh, me", Nova shook her head.

"No", Peter shook his head.

"Yes"

"No"

"No"

"Yes....wai-"

"YESSS!", nova yelled, cutting off Peter snd jumping onto the top bunk.

"Wha- wa- but.....that's not fair", Peter whined, stomping his foot and pouting.

"Is too, you said yes yourself", Nova shrugged.

"Because you tricked me", Peter whined.

"No I didn't, I outsmarted you", Nova corrected him.

"You did no-", Peter cut himself off when Nova raised a brow. "It's my bed."

"Hey, don't be pulling that card out on me 'it's my bed'", Nova mocked Peter.

Peter just glared at her for a minute before huffing and giving up, climbing into the bottom bunk of the bed.

"Night Peter", Nova whispered.

"Goodnight Nova", Peter replied sleepily.

Nova then let out a sigh and let her body fully relax and closed her eyes, dozing off.

An explosion went off waking Nova from her sleep and her eyes opened showing her in the middle of a dead field.

She squinted her eyes as a bright green light shown right in front of her, her breath caught in her throat for a second of the colour she remembered so distinctively and missed.

She opened her eyes quickly and got off from the dirty ground and looked around.

In the corner of her eye she saw a blue and white trail and even though she disliked him a lot, she kind of missed the cocky speedster.

But when she turned around to look where she saw the trail, it was gone completely out of her vision.

She then froze up as a voice she missed so much ran through her ears, the voice being a bit different than she remembered having matured a bit.

"Not my family", the voice said.

"Princessa", she heard the speedster yell.

"Kid", she then noticed as the voice of Tony.

"Doll", the voice of Bucky came.

"Trouble", Clints voice, then came, Nova only ever able to take a deep breath hearing the voice of the second person she missed the most.

"Little one", Thors voice came, not being as loud and boisterous as Nova remembered.

Nova was trying her hardest to turn around and see what was happening and why everybody was so worried, but it was like someone had pressed paused and she can't move.

Just as she heard what would be a body hit the ground everything went green.

"Come back", Nova heard, just as she sat up quickly and into a pair of arms so familiar, her eyes shooting open in the process.

"It's okay, you're okay", the voice cooed, as Nova took in deep breaths, feeling out of breath as she reached around the dark room before holding onto whoever had their arms around her..

Nova took a few seconds to breath, before looking up into Peters warm dark brown eyes, that always made Nova feel safe.

"What's wrong?", Peter asked concerned.

"Nothing, just a nightmare", Nova whispered, shrugging it off.

"Well it's obviously bad if I woke up to you screaming and crying", Peter said, concerned.

"Oh", Nova looked down confused, "I'm sorry for waking you up."

"No it's fine, I'm just worried about you", Peter told her.

"Well there's nothing to worry about, I'm completely fine", Nova told him.

"Aunt May told me when women says they're fine they're not really fine", Peter said accusingly.

"She's a smart women, but I'm not like most girls and I am completely fine", Nova told him, stressing on the fine.

"Okay, I'll take your word", Peter huffed, knowing she was lying but knowing he wasn't going to get an answer anytime soon.

Peter started climbing out of the bed not knowing how Nova would feel, but thinking she probably wants to be alone or go back to sleep.

But before he can get to the end of the bed where the ladder is he feels a hand snatch his wrist and he turns his head.

When he turned his head, he could see that whatever Nova dreamt hurt her and her eyes were showing fear, sadness and longing.

He knew the dream bothered her and he knew she wouldn't tell him, and this is also the first time she has sort of fully let her walls down around him showing that even the toughest of people need a rock to lie on.

"Please, just stay, please", Nova couldn't form words properly, but Peter knew what she meant.

"O-okay", Peter stuttered, climbing in next to her under the blanket and letting her cuddle up to him, wrapping his arms around her and holding her tight against him.

Nova knew how pathetic she probably looked and how disgusted she is by the thought of cuddling someone, because she remembered when ever she saw Sage and Pietro cuddling around the compound or even touching off each other she would make a disgusted face.

Even though she hated it at the time, she won't say it to anyone, but she'll admit it to herself, she missed seeing them cuddling around even though she hated it, at least then she knew they were okay, Sage especially.

But right now she didn't feel disgusted by the thought and feel of cuddling Peter, she felt at peace and safe whenever she was with him.

Maybe this wasn't such a bad thing after all.

And with that thought she hugged Peter even tighter in her arms and snuggled closer to him, trying to get as close as possible.

If Sage were here she would probably tell her 'i told you so', because Sage would tell Nova all the time she would find love and be happy, like she was with Pietro and she won't feel so left out because then she will be the one leaving Sage out.

And Nova would just scoff and say she would never find love and her life wasn't made to be happy from what had happened to her so far in life.

But now, she kind of understands what Sage was talking about.

And the last thought in her mind as she closed when eyes and fell asleep, in to one of the best sleeps of her life.

Was of Peter.
