Hero was still asleep when they struggled against the chains keeping them down, they were about to scream when a voice woke them up.
"Dreaming about something, sweetheart?" Supervillain asked sarcastically, watching Hero's face turning from dread to confusion before showing utter relief. Why relief? They were literally chained up in supervillain's cell.
"It's you," Hero said, wiping their tears away, "Sorry, I thought- I saw- Sorry, I was being loud, I'll stop."
Supervillain waked closer to the restrained hero, who flinched at the sudden moviment, ready for the torture Supervillain had yet to bestow on them, "Who were you dreaming about?"
Hero shook their head, they can't bring themselves to speak about it so they braced themselves to be hit for daring not to answer, they were sure the pain would come when Supervillain raised their hand, but they were wrong.
Supervillain used their bare hands to break the chains attached to the cuffs on both Hero's wrist, letting them staring at the broken iron in pure confusion.
"You don't need to tell me then," Supervillain said opening their own arms for a hug, "But at least allow me to keep them away. Even if just their memory for now."
Hero's eyes widened at that. They shouldn't. The shouldn't take comfort on a criminal, principally one keeping them as prisoner for gods know the reason, but when they realized they were already burying themselves in their enemy's chest, already drifting into a so necessary sleep.
They needed comfort, and they were past the point of mind whose.
