dallon was awaken in the middle of the night by whimpers.
he looks to his left and sees brendon clutching the sheets, face scrunched up and jerky movements.
"bren, baby wake up." dallon whispered, shaking the boy.
brendon eyes shot open and he looked at dallon before bursting into tears.
"shh, baby, what's wrong?" dallon spoke, pulling him close.
"i had a dream you died, a-and I couldn't save you. i- I had to watch you die," he choked, dallon's heart clenched.
"baby boy, I'm okay, I'm right here. calm down okay? calm down." he comforted, brendon's body still jerked every once and a while.
a little while after dallon looked down and saw brendon had fallen asleep.
one hand clutching dallon's shirt, & the other grasping his hand.
he smiled fondly and pressed a kiss to the smaller boys forehead.
dallon soon drifted into a deep sleep, brendon still cuddled into his side.
