Sleeping for me is like a getaway. I like sleeping because its like a different reality. Though that changes when I have a nightmare. And tonight was one of those nights. I jump up from my bed with tears in my eyes. I dreamt of him and that day. I decide to go to the kitchen to get some water before heading back to bed. So I leave my room and quietly make my way to the kitchen. I pour myself a glass of water before hearing a voice.

"(f/n)?" I nearly spit out my water.

It was dark but it wasn't hard to tell that a very sleepy Akaashi was standing in-front of me.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you." He whispered.

"No, its okay. I thought you went home?" I question. I speak in a normal voice because I know that Kou is a very heavy sleeper.

"I stayed because the storm got worse and I live kind of far." He explains.

"Oh okay, can't sleep? or did I wake you? I'm sorry if I did."

"You didn't wake me. I can't seem to fall asleep. What about you?" He clarifies.

"I had a nightmare. Can you not sleep because of the thunder?" I was genuinely curious but I didn't want to pry.

"Sort of. What was your nightmare about?" He seems to not want to talk about it so I won't say anything.

"Its a long story. I will tell you the short version. I lived in Spain for a little less than a year, I fell in love with someone. It was good for a while. And then one day he woke and decided he didn't want me anymore." I didn't want to go into detail because it's still pretty painful to talk about.

As if he sensed it, He pulls me into a tight hug. I'm not one for affection, but with him it felt like all the feelings I was holding back suddenly came out to play. I nearly melted in his arms.

"He didn't know what he had. And even though I don't know him, I'm sure he didn't deserve you anyway."

We pull away and I look at the clock. Its 3:30AM.
