He awoke to Nunnally's cries. "W-what?" He asked groggily. Upon hearing her cries once more he jumped up rushing to Nunnally's room.
He saw her in distress. Her face was tear stricken, and she looked as if she were in a tremendous amount of pain. "N-Nunnally what's wrong?" He asked fully awake, and worried.
"I had a nightmare." She whispered ashamed. He sighed 'she woke me up because she had a nightmare?' He thought closing his eyes, attempting to calm himself down.
"Do you want to talk about it?" He asked in a soft tone. She shook her head. "Then what do you want me to do?" He asked a little harshly.
She started to cry again. "I'm sorry I woke you, I just wanted you to stay here, with me." She muttered afraid Rollo was going to snap at her again.
He blushed. "Don't be, I shouldn't have snapped like that." Nunnally smiled. "It's okay, would you um." She faced away blushing. "Lay down, with me."
Rollo blushed laughing slightly. "Sure, princess." He lied down next to her. She struggled to cuddle up against him. He chuckled before holding her in his arms.
"This feels familiar." She murmured almost asleep. "Nunnally can I ask you something?" Rollo asked. She took a deep breath. "What is it?" She asked.
"Do you believe in soul mates?" He asked thinking back to the dream. "I apologize that was a stupid question." She shook her head. "No it wasn't." She said. "I do believe in them."
Rollo felt a warm feeling spread through his heart. He smiled. "So do I." Then they peacefully slept in each others arms.
