"Hey." I hear Blue's voice, taking me away from my sleep.

I feel Blue begin to gently shake me awake. I sit up on the bed. I look around to see that we were still in his bedroom. I leaned back against the headboard.

"Hey." I reply, gently rubbing my eyes.

"Are you okay?" Concern spreads across his features. He looks to see if there are any injuries around my body. I felt the crack at the back of my head. I don't think it's gotten any bigger.

I nod. "I'm fine. No injuries." I smile at him. He cares about me so much. I just wish he could let go of that constant worry and live his own life just a little bit.

He lets out a sigh of relief. "Thank god.
Was it another memory?" He asks, prying just a little bit.

I nod, not quite knowing what to say. "Um, we were-" I start and then pause unsure of how to tell him about the things I've just seen. "We were sitting right here." I gesture to the bed. He nods, showing that he's listening to whatever I'm about to say. "I was trying to help you with your nightmares." I say quietly. "I'm sorry." I blurt out. "I didn't know how to help you before. I didn't know about the bed dreams, I-"

He interrupts me by placing a soft kiss on my lips. It tasted like trust. I can hear my heart beating loudly through my shirt. He makes me far too nervous than I would like him to.

"I trust you." He says quietly, although I slightly doubt it. "Last time, you were just always worried about my bad dreams and my nightmares. You used to wake up every time, and sometimes you wouldn't get enough sleep because of me."

It's strange having him tell me all these things about myself I never would have known. It's also strange going back and having constant flashbacks of the memories that are supposedly still locked deep in my brain. But it's strange that everyone else remembers all these moments they had with me and I don't.

"I'm sorry." Blue says. "It was just that I didn't want to plague you with all my problems. You shouldn't have to deal with my nightmares on top of everything you're already going through."

"No," I insist. "It's fine. Besides, we're dating. I'm supposed to care about you."

"Maybe I'll just sleep on the couch?" He suggests, but I shake my head.

"There's no need for that." I insist again. "Besides, I kind of need you here with me."
