"Ah!" Kali shot up out of bed. She quickly reached to turn on the lamp on her bedside table. Her other hand moved to the other side of the large bed only to find that the other occupant of the bed was not there. "D?! D?! Damian?!" She cried out. She scampered out of bed and hurried to the bathroom door, hoping to find Damian on the other side. Her heart dropped when she found the bathroom empty. Eventually, reality set in and she realised he was probably on patrol. She slowly moved back to the bed and sat in the middle with her knees to her chest and tears streaming down her cheeks.
This was the way Damian found her when he crawled in through the window in their bedroom an hour later. "Kali? What's wrong? What happened?" He questioned as he crept closer to her. Kali's head shot up and she lunged herself at him. He caught her and cradled her like a baby with her face buried in his neck. "Darling, what happened?" He quietly asked, afraid to trigger another onslaught of tears. "I-I had a nightmare and-and when I woke up, you-you weren't here." Kali stuttered out. "Darling, why don't you lay down while I change, we'll talk after, okay?" Damian softly said. She nodded numbly and moved to lay down on the bed while keeping her eyes on him.
Damian made quick work of removing his costume and replacing it with some pajama bottoms. He moved to lay down beside her and hold her in his arms. "Now, what was it that scared you so badly, hmmm?" He softly asked. "T-Talia came and-and she-she took you away. And then I-I woke up to-to find you gone." Kali said. "Oh, Sweetheart, I swear to you, I will always be there to protect you."He whispered in her ear. With that Kali finally fell asleep.
Yeah, I got bored... So, umm... enjoy?...
