Y/n's Pov:
I woke up to a still dark room, rolling over I find Tom's spot empty and cold. I squint looking around the room, noticing the small sliver of light coming from under the door. I shiver as I pull back the blankets and pull on one of Tom's sweaters, slowly opening the door and walking into the living room; squinting in the bright light. I blink a few times until my eyes adjust to the light, and I see Tom sitting on the couch with his back to me. "Tom?" I whisper and his hand runs through his hair, I walk around to face him. "What are you doing up?".
"I couldn't sleep." He mumbles and I kneel in front of him. "You should go back to bed.". I shake my head and he looks up at me. "What's the matter?" I ask and he shrugs. "Had a nightmare." He mumbles and I nod. "Well, I'm still here aren't I?" I murmur, rubbing his arm reassuringly. He nods and wipes at his face, I notice the dried and still wet tears on his face. I reach and wipe his cheeks, and brush his hair from his eyes. "I'm not leaving, I never will." I mumble and he nods as I sit up on the couch next to him. "I don't know what I did to deserve you." He whispers. "If I hadn't met you, I would've become a monster... you saved me.". I entwine my hand in his and lean my head against his arm. "You didn't need to do anything to deserve me." I whisper and he squeezes my hand. "Now why don't we go to bed.". He nods and I stand up, with him following me as we leave the living room; turning off the light and head into the bedroom. I sit on the end of the bed and he sits next to me. During all the years that I had been with Tom, he has a way of showing affection; even though he comes across as cold and mean, but he's only had a few of these nightmares. The nightmares consist of him becoming evil and killing me, but it's not him it's someone else and he's watching. I snap out of it and Tom lays down, pulling me with him. I lay behind him and wrap my arms and legs around him, I run my fingers through his hair and kiss his head. He sighs and I close my eyes. "I love you so much." He whispers.
"I love you too." I whisper and he tenses. "You heard that?".
"Yes, now let's try to get some sleep." I mumble and he sighs, I slowly nod off to sleep.
