The soft light of dawn crept into the room, casting a gentle glow over the sheets. Astoria woke first, stretching lazily beneath the warm blankets, her heart swelling as she turned to was her partner, Bucky, still lost in a restless sleep. His brow furrowed slightly, and she could see the tension lingering around his mouth--- a telltale sign of the nightmares that often haunted him. 

Feeling worried, she reached out, brushing a strand of hair from his forehead. "Hey, love," she whispered softly, leaning in to plant a kiss on his cheek. "It's morning."

Bucky stirred, blinking slowly as he came to, his eyes clouded with remnants of a dream. "Astoria?" he murmured, voice thick with sleep. "Did I wake you?"

"No, not at all," she replied, her fingers softly tracing along his jawline. "Couldn't resist watching you. But you looked like you were fighting a battle in your sleep."

A hint of vulnerability flickered in his eyes as he rubbed the sleep from them."Yeah, it was one of those nights again," he admitted. A agile escaped his lips, "But you're here now. That helps."

Astoria smiled softly, her heart aching with love for him. "I'll always be here...Want to talk about it? Or should we just focus on the day?"

Bucky considered for a moment before shaking his head. "let's focus on the day. I'd rather fill my mind with good things- like you." He leaned in, pressing a soft kiss to her lips, a connection that banished the shadow lingering in his mind.  "Good plan," she said, pulling back just enough to meet hi gaze. her eyes sparkled with warmth. "How about we make breakfast together? I'll make a batch of your favorite pancakes."

"Now thats a good reason to wake up," he replied, his smile widening as he tucked her hair behind her ear. "Maybe a little dance party while we cook?" Astoria inhaled sharply, a big grin tugged at her lips. She laughed, her heart lightening at the thought. "Absolutely. It's whatever you want, love."

"Thanks, doll." he grinned, the shadows of his nightmares fading as they shared a small moment of intimacy. Together, they rose from the bed, ready to face the day and whatever sweetness it might bring.
