"You're okay, it was just a bad dream."
Send me “You’re okay, it was just a bad dream.” for my characters reaction to waking up from a nightmare in your characters arms.
Something squeezing my chest. Try to fight against it. Can’t. Don’t want to fight it Why?
What is that noise? Soothing. John.
Whispering that its okay.
Holding me against his chest
Can smell him all around.
Smells of sleep, that warm smell that is all John.
Heart rate increased. Dark room. Warm John. Nightmare.
Must’ve been a bad one if John is down here…
Wish the lingering fear would dissipate as quickly.
More likely screams, got John’s attention.
Feel something drip onto my shirt.
Explains why John is still whispering.
Can’t make out the words.
Realise its my own harsh breaths covering his words.
