So, I realized I've done a lot of cute, fluffy, happy drabbles for these guys, and kinda figured I'd do one that wasn't quite so… happy. I mean, not too sad (at least I hope) but something a little less bright and sunshiney! This is one of my own prompts, and I hope you enjoy it, but I own absolutely nothing!
Nightmares
It didn't happen often. Nora was the one more prone to waking in the middle of the night, creeping into his bed for some form of comfort. It was very rarely that Ren woke up in a cold sweat, unable to breathe properly as he tried to remember that nothing bad was happening, that they were all safe.
But on those rare occasions, where Ren was sitting silently in his bed, Nora would wake up on her own and without hesitation, move over to his side to rest her head on his shoulder. She never said anything, just rested against him silently until he was calm enough to lay down again.
He wasn't sure how she knew to wake up, or why it happened during those specific times, but when she was by his side… that tightness in his chest started to dissipate, and the fear that had built up was suddenly gone.
And even when the nightmares had gone, and the memory was fading away, Nora curled up next to him, and the last thing Ren heard before he fell asleep again was Nora's breathing coordinating with his own.
There we go guys! It's not quite the same theme I've been doing, so I hope you guys liked this little switcheroo, and if you want more along this kind of thread, just let me know! Trust me, I'm totally happy to do it! Thanks so much for reading guys, and I'll see you in the next chapter!
