I woke up to the sound of cries and screams in the night. She was doing it again. She was having those nightmares. Most nights she wakes up screaming and sweating. I hate when she has those nightmares, I hate seeing her in pain. I cuddle up towards her and put my arm around her. She jolted upwards and screams. I grab her and bring her into a long embrace. "Babe don't worry it's over, it's over, I'm here." She lets out a long breath. "Okay okay, just don't let me go please. Ever. Never leave me." She looks like she is about to cry. "I'm here and I will never leave you. I promise. forever." She lays back down and brings my arm around her. God I loved cuddling her. It was like if I died cuddling her... I would leave this earth happy. Shes almost fully asleep when she says "I love you so much" under her breath. "I love you more" I say.
As she falls asleep I can't help but wonder what the nightmares are about. She won't tell me. She always says she doesn't want to bother me with her nightmares. But little does she know that it hurts me more and more every time she has those nightmares.
