i wake in the night

travis's pov:
i wake up to the heartbreaking sound of taylor crying. "baby? what's wrong princess?" i ask, my voice still thick with sleep. she's shaking and completely sobbing. "babygirl, can you talk?" i murmur, gently holding her hand.

"taylor, you're okay. you're safe" i said, her sobs slowly turned into quieter and more calm sniffles.
i pulled her into my lap, gently rocking her back and forth until she's ready to talk.

"babygirl, are you okay?" i ask, using my thumbs to wipe some of the tears out of her eyes. "i had a really bad dream." she mumbled, fidgeting with her hands in her lap.

"i'm sorry about that baby. is there anything i could do to help you feel better now? any drinks?food? cuddles?" i question. i want her to feel comfortable and safe with me regardless of what happens, i will always be there for her.

"i want some water." she responded, i nodded in acknowledgement. i scooted out from under the covers, and was about to stand when i heard taylor whimper again. "baby, what's the matter?" i ask, she looked up at me with her lip trembling still.

"i don't wanna be alone, im scared." she responded, beginning to tear up. "oh baby..." i breathed. "you wanna come with me?" i ask, she lifts her arms up. "you wanna be carried, yeah?" i chuckle, she nods with a soft smile.

i helped her to her feet and pick her up so she can wrap her legs around my waist. i carried into the hall and down the steps like a small child would be carried, but it worked. i arrived in the kitchen, placing taylor onto the nearby counter. i opened the cupboard and pulled out a regular glass cup and filled it with ice and water.

"trav, what time is it." she asked, looking out the window. the sun was just starting to peek up. i checkup the clock on my phone, it read 6:13am.
"it's just past six, do you wanna go back to sleep or we can just have an early morning." i suggest, handing her the glass of water.

"i don't wanna go back to sleep. im still worried about my dream." she mumbled, taking a couple sips of her water. "i'm sorry baby. did you wanna talk about it? i'm all ears." i offered.

"no. i barley remember what happened... but it just felt so real." she murmured, slowly walking to the couch. "i'm sorry about that. i wish there was another way i could help you." i say, following behind her.

"do you wanna watch a show or movie? maybe it could help take your mind of off your dream" i suggest, searching for the remote. "something light. what about friends?" she suggests, just as i was gonna assume.

i nodded and turned the show on. "cuddles?" i ask, she smiled, as she leaned on my shoulder. i pressed a kiss into her temple before lowering the volume of the tv because it was quite loud. "that better?" i asked, she smiled.
