     You didn't have nightmares very often. They were rare since you had been gifted a dream catcher by your beloved Rantaro. They hadn't worked for you before, but somehow, this one managed to do the trick and had so far successfully chased off all of your nightmares.

       Or maybe, it was since you had Rantaro sleeping next to you that your nightmares had disappeared. Either way, sleeping next to the boy you adored so entirely was truly wonderful, especially with the distinct lack of nightmares.

     Though, Rantaro had stayed awake much later this night in particular, watching a movie downstairs after calmly promising you that he would be upstairs with you again as soon as the movie was over, however since you had been particularly tired that night and of course retired to bed much earlier than Rantaro, you had fallen asleep and were out like a light before the movie had finished.

       When Rantaro entered the room, he didn't pay much attention, closing the door behind himself gently and stripping himself of his clothes, dropping them into the washing basket in the corner and changing into the sweatpants and T-Shirt he slept in. As he made his way over to the bed where you were curled up, he began to notice something was not entirely right.

       Curled up in a tight ball amongst the almost pristine F/C sheets, your head was buried deep in between the two pillows on the double bed, and you were making soft sounds. Rantaro was confused at first, but he quickly deduced that they were sounds of fear to accompany the gentle trembling of your body.

      He quickly slipped under the duvet and sat with his back against the headboard. With one hand he quickly clicked on the small bedside lamp, casting a faint orange glow throughout the room, and he wrapped his arms around your shaking body, pulling you up against his side. He could feel how cold you were, and hoped that his own body warmth would be enough to calm you, if only a little.

      However, you snapped from your dream quickly, your whole body jolting in shock. You stilled in fear once awake, barely daring to open your eyes, but as your wits began to come back to you and you felt the toned body you were curled up against, you managed to blink open your bleary, sleep blurred eyes.

     "R-Rantaro?" You murmured softly, your voice rough and catching with the lingering sleep. He smiled at you faintly in the soft light, and he shuffled further down to be more level with you, resting on his side and pulling you in tight to his chest and making sure that you were both suitably cosy in the thick duvet.

     "I'm here," He whispered gently, and you nodded sleepily, shakily grasping onto his T-Shirt. "It was just a nightmare, I've got you,"

      "You knew?" You asked weakly burying your face into the crook of his neck, inhaling the comforting earthy scent he always carried. One of his warm hands was pressed firmly against your back, his other hand lightly combing through your hair, before moving to brush his thumb tenderly over the plane of your cheek.

     "Of course. But you're safe now, you're with me, and nothing will get you now," He whispered softly, making sure you were as close to him as you could possibly be. "I'll protect you from everything, you're safe with me,"

     "Rantaro?" You asked softly.

     "Yes?" He answered quietly, moving to press his lips against your temple in a light kiss.

     "C-Can you tell me a story?"  You asked meekly, and after nuzzling his nose into your hair for a few sweet moments, he replied.

     "Of course," His voice was as soft as velvet, and you could already feel your bad dream slipping from your mind, and your eyes growing heavier once more. "What kind of story would you like?"

     "One about you," You answered sleepily, already beginning to fade away, surrendering to sleep once more in Rantaro's warm arms.

      "Anything for you, my love," He whispered with a small smile. He knew you were almost asleep already, but he began one his many tales of his fantasy adventures, a small contented smile decorating his features.

        And more than happily, you slipped back away into the land of slumber, Rantaro's melodic voice filling your mind with the sweetest adventures, and in your dreams, you explored a fantasy world of your creation, hand in hand with Rantaro.

      And of course, everywhere you went in your fantasy world, his sweet earthy scent would follow.
