🥰 - Post-nightmare cuddles, for Sasha
Yay! Thank you for asking I love those prompts!
Sasha woke up with a gasp. He leaned over the side of bed, and hid his face in his hands breathing heavily.
"Fuck" He rasped.
Sasha tried to calm himself down but the bits of the nightmare were still clinging in his mind, making everything feel surreal.
Someone's cold fingers touched his hand, trying to move it away from his face. The sensation felt odd for his not quite yet awake body, so he tried to push the person away but they effortlessly caught his hand and held it down.
"Sashka" The person said quietly. He recognized the voice and opened his eyes - Viv was crouching down in front of him.
"Fuck" Sasha said again and took a deep breath "Did I hurt you?"
Viv scoffed, amused and smiled softly.
"You would have to try much harder than that to hurt me"
She put a hand on his forehead and brushed away his hair.
"Are you alright? You're white as a sheet"
"Yeah, I'm fine, I just..." Sasha trailed off. "I'm sorry I didn't want to wake you up"
Viv was a light sleeper to put it delicately, even the louder step or creak would wake her up, of course she heard him trashing around.
"You're shaking" She pointed out instead.
"I'm fine go back to sleep"
Just as Sasha said it, he felt her let go of his hand and stand up, but instead of the steps and creaking of the door, he felt the weight shift as Vi sat beside him.
Viv put her arms around him, and at first Sasha wanted to protest, but something stopped him. She shifted and he felt his back lean on the headboard. Sasha closed his eyes and touched her shoulder with his forehead. Now he too felt that he was shaking.
"It's alright, I'm here." Vi said gently, and ran her hand through his hair. "Breathe, just breathe."
After a moment he calmed down a bit, so he moved away, but didn't let go of the girl's hand. She looked at him concerned.
"Do you want to talk about it?" Vi asked.
"No, not really, no." Sasha answered, knowing that she would understand. And as expected she just nodded and didn't press further.
"But Viv?" He asked when she started getting up.
"Yeah?"
"Can you stay here?"
She sat back on the bed, leaned over and kissed his forehead.
"Sure" Vi just said and straightened up her legs, leaning on the pillow beside him. She took his hand again, and started tracing shapes on it with her thumb.
It wasn't long before he fell back asleep.
