Logan's eyes shot open, his breathing was erratic and his heart was beating loudly in his chest. He tried to block out the nightmare he'd just had and focused on calming himself down. He looked at the sleeping form of his boyfriend in his arms and pulled him closer so that he could bury himself in the scent of his hair. He calmed a little when realisation hit him; Julian was here, nothing had happened.
Julian shifted a little in Logan's arms and green eyes were suddenly met with brown.
"Lo... you okay?" Julian whispered sleepily. Logan looked down and shook his head slowly. Julian moved his hands from where they were pressed against his boyfriend's chest and put them on either side of Logan's face.
"Lo?" Julian whispered. No response.
"Logan?" Julian said softly, a little louder. Still nothing.
"Logan!" Julian said harshly, making Logan look up.
Julian moved one of his hands to stroke Logan's hair and kept the other holding his face so that he couldn't avoid eye contact. Logan felt himself calm down as he looked in Julian's eyes.
"Now, tell me what's wrong" Julian said quietly
"No" Logan replied, shaking his head
Julian leaned forward to press a kiss to Logan's forehead. "Not taking no for an answer"
Logan smiled. No, of course he wouldn't give in. Julian always got what he wanted in the end. And Logan would always give it to him.
"Nightmare" he whispered
"Bad?"
Logan nodded
Julian moved so that he could wrap his arms around his boyfriend and Logan moved so that he was pressed to Julian's chest. He calmed down completely listening to Julian's heart beat loudly in his ears.
Julian kissed Logan's hair as he drifted off into a peaceful sleep.
