No POV

Jay woke up for the third night in a row to Carlos screaming and thrashing around in bed. He started to tap him awake.

"Carlos, wake up babe. They aren't here and they can't hurt you," Jay said softly into the boy's ear.

His body started to calm down with its movements and he quieted down. Carlos jolted awake and clung to his lover like a koala to a tree. He started to cry softly in Jay's arms.

"Jay, it was awful. They were there and they were beating me all over again. It felt so real." Carlos was sobbing into Jay's chest.

Jay just held the smaller boy and comforted him as best he could. It broke his heart that his boyfriend had to go through this. It hurt him, even more, to know that this could have all been avoided had I been with him instead of leaving him by himself.

Jay started to cry himself and this made Carlos look up at him because it was very rare to see Jay crying so it caught him off guard.

Now it was Carlos's turn to comfort his boyfriend. He switched their positions and held Jay's head in his neck and just let him cry. It was a sob fest in their room with the boys both crying and trying to comfort each other. Until they eventually fell asleep.

Next Morning

Jay woke up first and tried his best to slip out of bed without waking up Carlos, he failed. The boy looked up at him and looked puzzled.

"Where are you going?" he asked

"I have to go and get you some clothes. We burned all of your clothes when you decided to go fully naked all the time. But I don't want you walking around naked anymore. At least until we can determine if others think like those boys."

"But Jay, why do you and I have to change how we are because of others?" Carlos asked frustrated

"Because I don't want this to happen again! I can't let you go through something like that again! I refuse to! SO I'm going to go and buy some clothes for you to wear and you are going to wear them!" Jay said to the boy.

"But I don't need them. Just because a few ignorant people decided that they wanted to attack me doesn't mean that they all will, nor does it mean that I'm going to get attacked again." Carlos argued.

"But wouldn't you like to stop it from happening altogether?" Jay asked the boy, he was starting to get frustrated.

"Well yes but-"

"NO BUTS!" Jay yelled. "You're doing this. I'm sorry to do this Carlos but I'm pulling the Dom card. Please don't be mad at me but it needs to be done."

"I can't believe you are pulling rank on me right now. Just because I am the sub in this relationship does not mean that I have to listen to you ya know."

Jay looked at the boy puzzled. "You do realize that's exactly what it means right?"

"Okay true but I don't have to like it."

"Okay, are you done?"

"Yes fine, go get the damn clothes."

"Thank you for being a reasonable baby boy. I love you." Jay said as he started to leave.

"Yeah whatever," Carlos mumbled.

This caused Jay to walk back into the room and up to Carlos. He grabbed him by his cheeks and made him look at him.

"I SAID I love you, baby boy," Jay repeated himself.

"ALRIGHT FINE! I love you too daddy." Carlos pouted.
