It was a late night and then young lovers were out and about on they're week off that the brigadier gave them.
They'd stop at a local pub that wasn't too crowded just for them to have quiet time alone together.
After the pub Yates didn't drink as much like Benton but still managed to hold his alcohol but still let Yates drive them home for the night. Yates was hoping for them to sleep in until noon which his lover didn't seem to care since they were off.
After getting home they two rough housed a little in bed then falling asleep in each others arms. An hour later Benton began to sweat and toss around a little though not waking up Yates, Benton then shot up from the bed screaming in panic finally waking up Yates. "John?! Love what's wrong?" Benton didn't answer, but only to cry into his lovers arms.
A minute went by and Yates read the clock of the night stand. 2am. Though Yates didn't care about sleep at the moment he only wanted find out what was wrong with Benton. "John please tell me what is wrong? I can't mind read" Benton lifted his gaze to his lovers eyes to see comfort and worry, he sat up wiping away his tears and spoke in a small little voice "Mike i never told you this, but my father wasn't always a nice man" Yates nodded for him to continue "and when i told him after i told my siblings and my mother that i was gay he didn't-he-" Benton wanted to cry again letting Yates to finish for him "he didn't take it to wisely" Benton nodded "so he'd beat me and threaten me if i'd ever fallen in love with a man he'd find me and that person and..." he wasn't brave enough to finish but sobbed once again into Yates' arms. Yates sighed "well if he's the one to think he can hurt you or me well he's not going to like to see my bad side" Yates used his thumbs to wipe away the tears in Benton's eyes "listen, your full grown man and you're apart of the military and plus you have me! And you damn well know that i'd always be that for you. Bad memories are bad memories. Think about the good ones that you have like how i did." he gave a gentle kiss on Benton's head "so that i could charis my moments with you, John"Benton wrapped his arms around Yates' waist "thank you, mike" Yates smiled and stifled a yawn "besides you owe me a sleep in after waking me up at 2 in the morning" Benton's frown became a smiled as he began to laugh and apologised. They gave a kiss before laying back down again "and john.." "hm?" "if anything bad comes near you, you know im always going to be there to protect you" Benton hugged Yates tighter "i know"
