How could I forget? - a short phanfiction

Even 28 year olds have nightmares. I'm just lucky that I have someone there so I don't have to be brave.

Dan is right by my side after I gasp
in fear and awake startled, my whole body caked in sweat. He runs his fingers though my black hair, singing a sweet tune under his breath. Even in my time of distraught, I recognise it as the song two of our phans made. We had listened to it on the couch together, lying in each others arms as tears formed in both our eyes.
"I was dreaming last night, of your black hair and your blue eyes..." I hear Dan sing. He has a beautiful voice and I could listen to him sing all day.

My fear starts to die down, and I just enjoy hearing Dan sing.
"Do you remember the time, back in 2009..."
I do, Dan. How could I forget?

"Are you feeling better now?" He asks, stopping. I want him to stay here, his fingers running though my hair and him singing softly to me. But he really should get some sleep. He should get some sleep and not worry about me.
"I love you, Bear," I call him by his family nickname. We are so close we are basically family.

Dan swipes my fringe off my face and kisses my forehead gently. I shut my eyes as my heart flutters.
"I love you too, Lion."
