"Thats not how a girl should act"

...

"You are a girl! Give up this boy nonsense!"

...

"Its just a phase."

...

"You're just saying that for attention."

.....................

Suddenly you bolt awake, panting as you feel hot tears run down your face... just a dream....

You hear a slight groan and some shuffling from the other side of the bed. You turn to see your boyfriend, slowly waking up.

"...Hunny..?" He mumbles, stretching a bit.

You apologize quietly for waking him up but he interups you, "Baby....whats going on...?"

He asks, seeming to notice the tears running down your face.

You tell him it's nothing but he doesn't give up, "Baby...theres clearly something wrong." He says.

You hesitate and stay quiet, thinking back to the dream which made you feel so much more insecure.

"You don't have to tell me exactly...your feelings are your feelings and if you don't want to share everything that's okay but...is there just something you can tell me so I can stop you from feeling so icky?" He hums, hugging you from behind and gently kissing your neck.

You sigh and finally give in, telling him as much of the dream and details behind it as you feel comfortable with sharing.

He nods and listens to you, giving you small movements of affection.

"Well...I can't lie...what your nightmare said are things that you could very well hear from people..." He sighs, "but...those people are the kind of people who you don't need. You're gonna run into them yes..."

You sigh a bit, still feeling hurt by the dream and uncomforted by your boyfriends words.

He backs off, "Do you need some space? That's alright...I just need you to know that I love you and that that was just a nightmare. Those things that they said...aren't true. They never will be for you." You boyfriend smiles a bit.

He checks his phone, "it's a bit late..but how about you grab a quick snack...maybe something to drink from the kitchen, come back, and then we can talk more...or we can cuddle...or we can go back to sleep...whatever you want." He says softly, "and I know I'm not much help with this nightmare but-"

You cut him off, expressing how thankful you are for him and everything he does for you.

Then you go get a snack/drink, or maybe you don't. Then you come back...maybe you talk to your boyfriend some more...maybe about the nightmare..or maybe not. Perhaps you just chose to cuddle with him for a bit before you both fell asleep in each other's safe and warm embrace. Or maybe you decided that you just needed a moment to rest and take everything in on your own.

Whatever you chose to do...your boyfriend was there with/for you the whole time. He was understanding and accepted you for who you are.

And at the end of the night, though the feeling of dread seemed as if it would never lift at first...you realized you felt much better...perhaps....nightmares aren't the thing to focus on right now.

At least, that's what you thought the moment you gazed at your lovable boyfriend, who was still asleep at the moment.

You gently smile, practically forgetting the nightmare and sinking into your boyfriends cuddles to sleep in a bit longer...
