"I like to play with mommy ." Little kuea said as he ran after his mom.

"Kuea cannot catch mommy ." Kuea's mom said as she ran panting away from his son playfully away in the large green grassland , giggling and laughing.

"Kuea , dad is here ." His dad standing at the side far away waving at little kuea.

"Come here dad ." Kuea stopped chasing his mother as his father started to walk towards him, the clouds started to form up in the sky all of a sudden , the lightening making a shrieking noise a dark shadow like figure grabbed his father's collar and started to drag him towards the door .

Kuea glanced at his mom's side but she wasn't there anymore , she disappeared across the large extended area , the green grass stared to change into black from the end of the garden as if burnt.
He ran towards him dad's side to snatch him from that shadow's hold , but the distance started to exceed as it became too far to reach , kuea didn't give up and pushed himself to run with all his strength, his energy draining, panting and sweating , the land beneath his dad's feet turned black and he disappeared as if the ground swallowed him.

"No, no dad, please come back." Kuea shouted with all his strength as his vision became dark .

Kuea woke up and found himself sitting up on bed panting, sweat covered his forehead, his chest going up and down due to fast breathing letting more oxygen in his lungs.

A nightmare again,
He closed his eyes in disbelief and glanced at the clock - 3:30 a.m already.

His attention caught the deep breathing beside him in bed , his eyes caught Lian sleeping peacefully beside kuea , his slow breathing in sleep making him feel comfortable.

He was in lian's bed and he could remember having a bath with him after being assaulted,
He passed out because of exhaustion and the marks were still there but got so much light,
Kuea was dressed Fully in his pyjamas,
The deeper marks and cuts on his neck and collarbone were bandaged ,

He is so considerate , I never thought he would ever be like this .

Kuea thought to himself while the thought of Lian dressing him up making him uncontrollably blush,
He covered his face with blanket and cuddled beside a warm body lying next to him .
He peeked up at him ,
His eye lashes were so long and his handsome face looked even more glowy under the moonlight , lips thin but perfectly fits his face.
Kuea brings his ear closer to Lian's muscular chest, covered with a loose top,

He could hear his heart beating in a rhythm,

Thump thump thump thump,

So calming , so soothing...
He Just wanted him to be next to him and be by his side .

...........

Kuea's pov -

I woke up with a sore body , and searched for hia next to me ,
He wasn't there .... He was sleeping next to me last night, where'd he go this early ,

A click of door opening was heard as Mrs May walked inside, I was startled at the moment because it was a little embarrassing for me to let her know that I'm in hia's bed and was in his room for the whole night,

"Kuea , Master told you wash up and have breakfast, no one's in the house now except me and him ." She smiled and I sighed in relief because wouldn't step out of the room untill Jackson wasn't kicked out of this house.

"One more thing, Master said that he will be working in his office at home today because it's weekend but you're not allowed to come in and even not allowed to go out." She said as she was looking at me with apologising eyes .
