Nightmare

Will woke up with a start. Not for any good reason; no one had woken him up, he just sort of did. His heart raced and he was taking deep, deep breaths in an attempt to calm himself down. It wasn't his first nightmare, far from it, but that didn't mean it wasn't still terrible. He glance around his room rapidly, looking for something he recognized. He finally looked next to him, finding the love of his life, Nico.

"Why are you awake?" Nico asked groggily. Damn, didn't mean to wake him up. Will shook his head, in a sort of attempt to shake off the feeling of fear that still faintly remained.

"Nightmare. Sorry." Will replied shortly. Nico sat up, hugging Will tightly. It took Will a bit by surprise but he was quick to almost melt into the hug.

"Don't be sorry. I have nightmares too. We can talk about it if you want?" Nico had started playing with Will's hair a bit, something he knew helped to relax him. It worked, of course.

"No, 's okay. Go back to sleep. Thank you." Will told him softly. Nico nodded slowly.

"Alright. You can talk to me, I wasn't just saying that, Will. You sleep too." Nico laid back, already half asleep.

"Mm. I'm getting a snack." Will stood up, stretching for a moment. He walked off into the kitchen, taking his phone with him. He ended up eating a granola bar and sitting on a countertop, messing around on his phone for ten minutes.

"Go to sleeeep." Nico groaned at Will, suddenly appearing next to him.

"I'm not tired, love. I'll go to sleep, give me a bit." Will told him. Nico shook his head, sitting next to Will and leaning against him.

"That's a lie and you know it, Solace. Talk to me." Nico instructed. Will yawned, moving more against Nico.

"I don't need to talk, angel. Don't worry." Will insisted. Nico looked seriously at Will, eyebrows furrowed.

"I have to worry about you, legally, as your husband, William." Nico stated. Will chuckled.

"We aren't married, Neeks."

"Yeah, well we should be. You really need to sleep, Will. Come on." Nico hopped off the counter, gently tugging at Will's arm.

"Okay. Only if you cuddle me." Will finally let up, allowing Nico to drag him back to bed.

"Obviously I'm gonna cuddle you, fluffers. You have fluffy hair." Nico told him. Will chuckled, gladly laying back down and cuddling Nico, if only so Nico'd sleep.
