The next day, you had woken up as you felt gjon twitch next to you.

His breathing got faster and you realised he must be awake so you opened your eyes.

You saw gjon staring at the ceiling and brushing his hand through his hair. His eyes looked like he had seen something out of a nightmare.

"are you OK gjon?" you asked.

"what, oh me, Mhm." he said, continuing to stare upwards.

"gjon, you're not OK. What happened? Did you have a nightmare or something." you insisted.

"I'm fine. Just, something from a dream." he said, although his face indicated otherwise.

You kissed his cheek and looked into his eyes with a smile on your face.

"you can tell me, I've had nightmares too." you say.

Gjon sat up and Held your hand, you moved closer to him to confront him.

"well, it's wierd. I haven't had a nightmare in ages."

"talking about it makes you not have the same dream again, I learnt that when I was six." you say.

"well, oh fine. In the dream, it was wierd. But it was when you and me were in the snow the other day, but gohan was there too. And you guys just kind of fell, into the snow. When I tried to help you up, you weren't there, then I just got all these memories of you and gohan and, well, I think you were dead. " he said, leaning into you.

"wow, I know I respond to everything with wow, but Its really good you told me, it may have been wierd, but you won't have the dream again." you say.

"I hope." said gjon.

"I'll make sure." you say.

"Do you want to have some tea to calm you down?" you asked after a couple of minutes in a confortable silence.

"Yes please, my head is spinning with thoughts." said gjon, wrapping himself up in a blanket and switching on the TV.

...

After you had made the tea, you walked back to the living room and gave it to gjon, who looked way happier than ten minutes ago.

After you sat next to him, you ruffled his perfectly curly hair and watched TV.

...

"we should get up," said gjon, looking at his phone, "it's eleven already."

"already, wow, that was a long movie." you said.

"yeah, wanna walk gohan with me?" asked gjon.

"of course, you know he's my favourite dog." you say.

"gohan would be delighted to hear that, if he was human." said gjon.

"come gohan," you said.

Gohan jumped off the couch and let you put on his leash.

When you got outside, you nearly slipped because of the icy ground but thankfully gjon caught you.

"are you OK?" asked gjon.

"Yes, thanks so much," you replied, brushing yourself off.

"good to know, would've been a nasty bang to the head."

"good thing you were here then." you say, you would be dead without gjon.

...

"come on gohan!" said gjon after you got back to gjon's house.
