Trigger Warning: Sleeping? Nightmares? Self deprecating thoughts?

"No, stop! Please!" A frantic, desperate voice pulled Josh out of his sleep. He recognized it as his boyfriend, Tyler, and sat bolt upright.

"Ty? What's going on?" he murmured to the dark room. "Are you okay?" After Josh got his common sense back and turned on the light, he could see that Tyler was having a nightmare. His face was twisted up in fear and pain, tear tracks staining his face, and Josh would give almost anything to never have Tyler feel like this again.

Grabbing Tyler's shoulders, Josh attempted to wake him up with a gentle shake. With a cry, Tyler shot up into a sitting position and frantically looked around, trying to separate reality from the dream he was in. Shuffling closer on the bed, Josh carefully reached out and touched his shoulder. "Ty? Are you okay?"

The gentle concern in Josh's voice did it for Tyler, and he burst into tears, wrapping his arms tightly around Josh's torso. Josh just held Tyler tightly, letting him cry into his shirt and soak it thoroughly with his tears.

"I'm sorry," Tyler said in a tiny voice after some of the tears had subsided.

"For what?"

"Waking you up, and being a bad boyfriend, and making you worry. You deserve so much better than a broken person with too many issues to count," Tyler responded, a few more tears streaming down his cheeks.

"I don't know what you're talking about. You're an amazing boyfriend, I've told you before, I enjoy worrying about you, and if it will help you, I'll wake up every night. And I'm not sure if there's a better person than you out there, but if there is, I haven't found them yet, at least not compared to you," Josh said, holding on to Tyler tighter. "I love you, Tyler Robert Joseph. I don't care that you have three first names, and I don't care how many problems you have. You're perfect for me, and I'd hope that I'm perfect for you."

"That was the most beautiful thing anyone's ever said to me. Including all of the times people repeat my Taco Bell orders back to me."

"Way to kill the mood, Tyjo."

"Shut up and hug me, Jishwa."

Obliging, Josh laid down with Tyler, and they wrapped their arms around each other. They fell asleep like the sappy shits they were, a smile stretched over both of their faces.
