She knew about his nightmares. He told her about them himself.
He knew about her nightmares. She didn't have to tell him.
She comforts him every night when he wakes up screaming.
When she wakes up in tears, he pretends he is asleep.
She knows he needs her to be there for him.
He knows she wants to be alone.
She knows he wants her to wrap her arms around him.
He knows she wants him think she is strong.
She thinks he is a hero.
He does not.
She thinks she is a coward.
He knows she is wrong.
He thinks she is the strongest person he has ever met.
She has no idea.
He thinks he is not good enough for her.
She knows he is better than he believes.
They know each other better than they know themselves.
Their admiration for each other keeps them strong.
She knows he is the one for her.
He knows she is not wrong.
