Nightmares

As Levi slept, Eren lay wide awake. He couldn't stop staring at the ceiling. It was as though whenever he slept, he was haunted by the mistakes of his past. He couldn't exactly get over all the shit hat had happened to him all at once.

But the sleepless nights came naturally. He didn't really care for them anymore. After a while, you learn to deal with the nightmares that leave you waking up, screaming in a cold sweat.

Suddenly, Eren was broken from his thoughts as Levi began to stir, glancing at him from just below his shoulder.

"Another nightmare?" He yawned, mumbling his words.

Eren nodded, sighing softly. "Yeah.. They're getting worse each time I sleep. It's almost as if they.. They want me to be riddled with my insomnia ridden nights."

Levi let out another yawn before turning to face in the other direction. "Maybe.. Maybe Hanji has something for it, she helped me with my night terrors."

Eren sighed once more. "Maybe. I didnt think to ask her, a stupid decision really. She always has something."

"Mhm.." Levi hummed as Eren slinked his arms around the smaller male's waist, pulling him close.

"Somehow. I sleep better when I'm holding you. Don't leave me." He whispered, not noticing that Levi had once again fallen asleep. Soft snores rising from him.

As Eren lay awake once more, he glanced down at the elder male beside him and laughed softly. He considered himself as blessed to have this man in his life. He wasn't wrong, to him, Levi was like a sedating drug. He gave him a purpose in life. A purpose to make this horrendous world a peaceful place, just for him.

Because to Eren, Levi mattered more than seeing the ocean.
