A/N: Another Tiny Pretty Things oneshot with Caleb and Monique, enjoy.
Caleb wakes up with a gasp, turning on his bedside lamp, grabbing his phone to look at the time. 12:25. He groans, throwing his phone down beside him, knowing he won't get anymore sleep tonight. Deciding it's better to do something other than staring at the ceiling, unable to sleep, Caleb gets out of bed, picking up his phone and sleeping silently out of the bedroom. He goes to the common room where it's quiet and dark, which he expects to be at 12:30 in the morning. He shivers as he sits down on the couch. The dream he had has shaken him to the core.
The dream has been the same since found out about his father's death: he witnessed his fathers death. Every time he tries to save his dad but every time he fails and sometimes wakes up screaming. It took Monique twenty minutes to calm him down the last time he had the dream while in her bed a week ago and he's not stayed the night with her since and she's the only one who can comfort him after dreams like this but he doesn't want to disrupt her sleep. He wants her but he also wants her to get some uninterrupted sleep.
He sighs silently as he gets off the couch and walks down the silent hallways to the familiar bedroom that he's spent so many nights in for the past year and a half.
Opening the door as quietly as he can, Caleb slips into the room and closes the door, leaning against it as he just admires her sleeping in her bed.
She's on her side facing the window, her blonde hair creating a halo around the pillow that's underneath her head. Padding over to the empty side of the bed, Caleb puts his phone on the bedside table and slips underneath the covers, accidentally waking up Monique. She rolls over to face him, a sleepy look on her face.
"Caleb?" She asks him, her blue eyes opening to look at him. "Are you okay?" Her voice is soft as she looks at him. Caleb shakes his head at his lover, he can never lie to her even if he wanted to.
"The dream again?" Her voice is soft and full of concern as he nods. "I couldn't save him." She sighs softly.
"Caleb, you couldn't save him because you weren't there and even if you were there, there was nothing you could do anyway." Monique says, Caleb sighs as he brings her into his arms.
"I just wish we could change the course of our dreams." Caleb says quietly into her hair. Monique breathes softly.
"I know you do." She says, burying her head in his neck.
"Get some sleep, Caleb." She says sleepily. Caleb sighs and closes his eyes, falling into a deep sleep with her in his arms.
