-Your POV-

I can't believe it. Life must really hate me now. I'm stuck at Robin's house for 4 days. The roads are closed due to the amount of snow and ice. This year, winter is brutal. What's worse is that we are alone in his house. Someone help me.

The reason I feel like this about sharing a house with Robin is that I don't want him to know I've been having nightmares. That and I've had a crush on him for a year now. He's always been a worrywart when it came to me so I didn't want to tell him.

4 months ago we had a mission in Europe that went South. My sister and I were assigned the mission. My sister, she didn't make it out alive. The enemy saw us coming and ambushed us. I was unconscious for 2 weeks. I've had nightmares ever since.

Of course, because of that incident, Robin didn't leave me alone for 2 seconds. If he knew I had nightmares he would fall asleep in my room. I care about him a lot and I don't want to be a burden to him or anyone else.

It wasn't awful. He would bring me snacks when he was taking a break, he would talk to me, spend time with me. He just made me realize how much I like him every time. We started playing board games too.

Warning: Dick Grayson is a God in Uno and Monopoly. Seriously, I lost to him more times than I can count. It was fun though. It was like a play date. So it wasn't all bad, my sister definitely shipped us and she did not hide it at all.

I was on my phone in the guest room. It was 2 rooms away from Robin's. Robin was training while Bruce and Alfred were gone. They left for business. I heard a knock and it was Robin. "Hey, Rob. You need something?"

He grinned, "I'm bored. Want to watch a movie or something? We have your favorite snacks and you can choose the movie."

He really knows me well. I giggled, "Deal. Get some (r/s) (Random Snack) and meet me in the theater room." He did as he was told. I chose (f/m). I love that movie. He came back and got the movie started.

At some point, I don't even know how it happened, his head was on my shoulder. He was eating popcorn and had his head on my shoulder. I blushed a little, but I didn't say anything. The movie was over, Robin fell asleep. "Rob. Wake up." I shook him awake. "I'm going to my room, I'm sleepy."

He nodded slightly. He was half asleep so it took him a while to process what you said. I went to bed and slept calmly on the bed. Just as my eyes fluttered asleep my mind ran wild.

The deeper in sleep I fell the worse the feeling in my stomach was. I fell asleep and the nightmare began. I woke up in a strange place that seemed like my room. Pictures of me and my sister were there. It was getting darker by the second. All I could feel were chains around my neck and wrists.

I heard screams of agony and pain. I could feel tears rushing down my face as I yelled. I couldn't understand what I was saying at that moment. I looked over at a girl who faced me. It was (s/n)(Sister's name). Her hair was a mess and her eyes looked dead and exhausted. Her face was covered in bruises, cuts, and blood.

She was tired up in chains against the wall as someone kept beating her with a whip. My mind was blank all I felt was my heart sinking as my throat became scratchy from all the screaming. I felt too tired to scream or even move. Before I knew it I ended up in another room with my sister coming at me with a knife screaming, "This was your fault. I wouldn't have died if it weren't for you." I tried to fight her off until she broke through and I woke up.

My mind was racing and my eyes looked everywhere. It took me a while to process my surroundings. I heard my door open and I threw a knife out of instinct. Thankfully, I missed him, it was Robin. He looked at me stunned and worried. "(Y/N)? Are you okay?"

I shook my head. At this point, lying was useless. Tears flowed through my eyes as I hugged myself trying to keep myself together. "I'm everything, but okay."

His eyes widened as he ran to my side. He sat next to me pulling me into a hug. He stroked my hair as I cried in his chest. "It's okay, I'm here." At some point, I calmed down and I wouldn't let him go. "Want me to stay?" I nodded slightly. He went to bed as he pulled me closer. My back touched his chest as he hugged me.

I melted into it. I felt calm, I felt safe. After, months of constant nightmares and torment, I felt safe. I fell fast asleep and this time I didn't have nightmares, just dreams instead.

I woke up to Robin still sleeping. He looked like a little kid, so peaceful. I looked at the position we were in and turned really, really, really, red. I was facing him and his arm was around my waist with mine against his chest. I tried to move away, but he grabbed me. He was awake. "R-Robin?"

He opened one eye to look at me. He was still sleepy and he looked so cute. He interlocked my fingers with his and pulled me closer. He hid his face in the crook of my neck and I was left confused. "Did you sleep well?"

"Y-yeah. Rob? Why are you so... clingy all of a sudden?" I looked at him, but he didn't move an inch.

"I..." He started talking. He took a short pause, kind of like if he didn't know what to say. Or he did but didn't know how to put it into words. "I really love you."

I flinched slightly and blushed. I asked him to repeat it just to make sure I wasn't hearing things. He did and I didn't know how to react. I guess I took a while to respond because he started apologizing. I just shut him up, "I love you too."

He froze his face was red, but he had such a sweet smile when I said that. He hugged me and I hugged him back. He looked at me after breaking up the hug, "Can I kiss you?" I averted my gaze embarrassed and I nodded. He leaned in and kissed me. It was short and it was sweet just like him.

I guess I have nightmares to thank for this.
