Captain my Captain Book3

Sleep

Natasha and I had a plan to get Clint back but it would have to wait until this whole ordeal is over. But for now its time to sleep.

I walk into the room I was sharing with Steve and see a make-shift bed on the floor . "Stevie?" I ask stepping into the room. "Yeah" he responds coming out of the bathroom wearing clothes that he borrowed from Clint . "Whats this on the floor ?" I ask pointing at it. 

" Well I figure you should take the bed and I'll sleep on the floor" he answered

" Uh Uh , your sleeping on the bed with me" I tell him

" Valerie I dont wanna-"

"No Steve you'll sleep on the bed next to me its not a big deal and if you want we can build a pillow fence between us"

"Ok fine" he says smiling defeatedly . 

" Ok well how 'bout you make the bed and I shower " I said squeezing past him into the bathroom . I hear him laugh at me through the other side of the door.

Steve and I lay on the bed backs facing eachother . It was bit akward but better than him sleeping on the floor I guess.   Trying to get confortable I turn to lay on my other side facing Steve to see that he also changed positions and was laying on his back facing the ceiling with his hands behind his head , just thinking. He didnt look like he was going to sleep anytime soon.

I put one arm under the pillow and the other next to my face and finally drift of into sleep.

Images from the vision appear in my mind  . "Red or Blue ?" was heard and my dead students "Why didnt you help us" the little girls voice rung as I looked at the gory sight infront of me . "After all , you are my pretty Ballerina" Madem B says curessing my face

I gasp and sit up straight in the bed , a cold sweat dripping down my back panting . Steve is at my side in an instant . " Val are you ok ?" he asks putting his hands on the sides of my face scanning my eyes and mine his still panting . "Was it the dream ?" he asked . 

I gained control of my breathing and Steve let go of my face . " Do you wanna talk about it" he asked . "Steve I dont know if I could ever voice the horrors that girl showed me" I tell him honestly , laying back down . He lays back down aswell and we look at eachother . "Are you going back to sleep ?" he questioned . " Probably wont be able to " I respond .  

Steve mutters an ok and pulls me too him in a conforting manner. He wraps an arm around my waist and I lay my head on his chest . We stay there in that position for the rest of the night , only leaving when Laura called us down for breakfast.
