Didn't See That Coming (Pietro Maximoff X Reader)

《T H R E E》

I woke up in the middle of the night by Pietro murmuring something and slightly thrashing in his sleep. My eyes opened groggily as I turned to him. His arm hung loosely around my waist and my head had moved from his shoulder to his chest. I yawned and was about to wake him when I felt I hand on my leg. I jumped at the sudden touch, but relaxed when I saw it was just Wanda.

"What's wrong with him?" I asked brushing some stray hair from his face.

"He has nightmares. About when we were under the experiments." She explained rubbing her brothers arm soothingly. I sighed. I hated when he would talk about the pain he went through, it just about killed me.

"I hate that he has to dream back to when he was in pain." I said laying my head back on his shoulder tracing mindless shapes on his arm. Wanda shook her head.

"Not about himself." She said. I looked at her in confusion.

"What do you mean?" I asked.

"He has nightmares about me in pain, but mostly there about you. He would wake up crying and would nearly break out of his room when he heard you screaming from the experiments. It was almost to much for him." She said laying her head on his other shoulder. I lifted my head off if his shoulder and looked at her.

"Is there a way I can use my powers to see what he is dreaming?" I asked, looking at my hands.

"Yes, but I must warn you it can be painful." She said sitting up as well.

"Pains an old friend." I said, before placing my hand on Pietro's forehead and focusing all my energy into seeing what he was. Within an instant I was no longer in the bell tower I was no in, Pietro's Nightmare.

~Nightmare~
I was back in the HYDRA base, but not in my room. I was in Pietro's and he was slamming his whole body against the door. It didn't take long for me to find out why. Ear piercing screams shot through the air and pleas for help.

"LET ME OUT! I HAVE TO GET TO HER! PLEASE!" Pietro yelled out, tears slidding down his face. He pounded his fists against the door, trying with all his might to break through it. When the screaming stopped the door swung open and Strucker stood sollum faced as he looked down at Pietro.

"Where is she?" Pietro cried. Strucker shook his head and looked down at the ground.

"She did not make it through the last experiment." Strucker said loudly. I heard Pietro cry out as he crumpled to the ground. I ran to embracing him, to comfort him, but my hands simply fazed through him. I felt a tear slip from my own eye and I looked at the sobbing Pietro, when suddenly the scene changed. This time I was in the air watching. I heard bullet rip the air and towards Pietro, but suddenly another person pushed him out of the way taking the bullets instead of him. When I got closer I gasped seering the person's face

It was me.

Before I could do anything else, I was pulled backwards and into darkness.

~End of Nightmare~

I woke up to Wanda leaning over me her hand pressed to my forehead. I leaned forward a terrible head ache creeping it's way into my mind.

"I told you." She said leaned back. I suddenly remembered the nightmare and turned to Pietro. I shook him lightly.

"Pietro. Pietro, wake up. It's just a dream. Just a dream." I cooed trying to get him up. After a minute of calling his name his eyes shot open, franticly darting our to where I sat and like a flash I was suddenly in his arms, with him holding me tightly head head burried in my neck. I wrapped my arms around his neck and hugged back, gently stroking his hair.
