Nightmares || Marvelsmightiestmuses
If there was anything Juniper hated more than bad guys it was nighttime. Under normal circumstances a superhero would love to sleep at the end of a long day of missions, but not Juniper. Sleep meant closing her eyes and when she did that, memories of hydra came flooding back. The only reason she ended up in bed was because Steve begged her to sleep after being away for the past 72 hours straight.
Steve had fallen asleep first. She didn’t blame him, he had had a long day and all he wanted was to curl up with the girlfriend. Only issue with that was that Juniper was in a grueling streak of nightmares, thus the lack of sleep in the last 72 hours. As she laid next to steve, tossing and turning, she cursed herself for potentially waking him. Eventually though, exhaustion set in and her eyes slipped shut.
In her sleep, she had managed to crawl out of bed and into the corner of the room, huddled on the floor. She let out a blood curdling scream as hot tears freely flowed down her rosy cheeks. The screams continued steadily until she felt someone gently shaking her, the faint muffled sound of her name drawing her to the surface.
