I lay awake at night. Most nights sleep has a hard time finding me. It used to bother me, it doesn't anymore. Not since I have him in my bed next to me. He's only the most amazing creature I have ever laid my eyes on. All pale white skin and dark dark hair. I wish I was as eloquent as he is, maybe this wouldn't sound so lame. I don't know what he's doing with me, I'm just glad he's here. He keeps the nightmares away. And I know he needs me just as much as I need him.

He thinks that I don't know that he watches me sleep. His eyes bore holes into me. Years of spying, it has its uses. If I could I would remove the years of pain that keeps him awake at night, I would bring back everyone he lost. But I can't. He lost pieces of himself during that war, I've been here to help put him back together again. All I can be is his anchor. I sometimes wonder why he is here at all, it doesn't matter anymore. One day he became mine, and since, no other may have him.
