"Hah … h-hah!", Dean gasped loudly, when he startled from his nightmare, bathed in cold sweat. Hectically the lunatic turned over to the Samoan's side of the bed, just to find it empty.
"R-Ro …" Dean caught his breath, still captured in the intensity of his bad dream. What if it hadn't been just a dream …?
Still hearing the ear-splitting shot in his ears, the horrified lunatic stared down on his shivering hands, expecting there was still sticking Roman's red blood to them. His boyfriend just had died in his arms …
"R-Ro …" Dean stumbled out of bed, his choked voice not more than a whisper, "R-Ro …" The wooden floor beneath his bare feet was cold, filling the corridor with toddling noises whenever Dean was making a swaying step towards the lightened living room.

"R-Ro." The younger man's knees gave way, when finally had pushed the creaking door open, finding the Samoan peacefully reading on his arm chair in front of the fire place, "Y-You're … a-a-alive."
"Dean." Roman quickly put the book aside, surprised to find his boyfriend awake at such a late hour, "Babe, what's wrong?" The tall man was instantly at his side, taking the distraught blonde into his arms.
"Y-Y- … a-a-l've …" Was all that left Dean's lips, before he buried his face deeply inside Roman's chest, bursting into tears.

And he cries
kiss it all better…

"Shshsh babe … shhhh …", the Samoan tried to calm his boyfriend, starting to cover the lunatic's head with soft kiss, " …. shhh it's okay …"
"H-H-He … y-y-you … b-b-blo-od … b-b-bloo- …", Dean stuttered incomprehensively, causing Roman to pull the blonde even closer.
"Shhh, calm down babe … did you have another nightmare?", Roman asked softly, feeling his shirt getting soaked more and more by salty tears .
"Uhh- … uhuun …", the younger man sobbed heartbreakingly, gasping for air, while the tall man started rocking him soothingly inside his tight embrace.

… and he kisses his face
and says "Everything will be alright" …

"Shhh … it's over honey …"Gently Roman took Dean's face in his hands, covering his salty skin with even more lovingly kisses, "… everything will be alright …"
"H-H-He … i-it … w-was h-h-him … R-R-o …" The lunatic cried almost hysterically, still haunted by the pictures of the shooting, " … h-he sh-sh-shot … y-you …"
"Shhh babe … I know … I know …", the tall man sympathetically stroked over Dean's messy hair, hearing how the lunatic's shallow breathing was increasing even more, " … but it's over … I'm right here babe … it was just a nightmare…"

And he cries
kiss it all better …

"Shhh, babe … slow your breathing down … slow it down …", Roman whispered firmly, feeling that his boyfriend was close to having a panic attack, " … shhh … everything's okay honey … just breathe …" The Samoan had leant his forehead against Dean's, looking him right in the eyes.
"I-I c-c-can-n't- …", the blonde gasped, getting aware of the lack of oxygen.
"Yes you can babe.", Roman murmured, before he captured his boyfriend's trembling lips into a sudden kiss, causing Dean to hold his breath for a quick second.

"I knew you could do it ...", the tall man smiled, softly wiping away one of the last tears on Dean's cheeks, when the younger man's breathing slowly went back to normal.
"T-Thank you …", Dean whispered, before he pressed himself tightly against Roman's warm chest, " … I … love you …"
"I love you, too, honey.", his boyfriend murmured softly , lifting the younger man up into his arms, "Let's get you back in bed. I know how tired you are."
"N-No, I don't want to go back t-to sleep." The lunatic tightly took hold of Roman's shirt, scared he once again could be haunted by nightmare.

He cries
stay with me until I fall asleep
stay with me

"It's okay Dean.", Roman smiled comforting, "I'll be sleeping right next to you … keeping you safe." Gently he put the lunatic down onto the covers, throwing the blanket over him, before the tall man crawled beneath it as well.

… stay with me until I fall asleep
stay with me

Soothingly and in a gentle rhythm Roman's thumb circled over Dean's hair, while the Samoan tightly embraced the lunatic's curled up body like a spoon.
"Hmmm …", Dean sighed quietly, while Roman could feel his breaths became deeper with every minute until the blonde fully had drifted off to sleep.
"I'll keep you save babe …", the tall man whispered almost inaudibly, when he pulled his boyfriend even closer, making sure that no nightmare could sneak itself into Dean's dream world without him noticing.
"Sweet dreams love.", Roman breathed, before he also fell asleep – his warm body wrapped tightly around the blonde - shielding his boyfriend from any harm.

Stay with me

Hey guys! :D
First of all thanks for reading! That was the last chapter of this two-shot sequel :)
Secondly ... your last reviews were ... just amazing! Thank you so much for that!
And luckily you were all right with your good guesses. Thankfully this was all a dream and Roman's there for our poor, frightened lunatic *heart* Writing Ambreigns makes me so happy *hmmm*

I know it took long again, until I could upload this. But your endless patience honors me even more *hug*
A special thanks to my lovely Dory here, who always pushes me when I'm not feeling too well or demotivated *thanks girl*

I love to read from you in the reviews :).
Hopefully seeing you soon (planing on putting the promised sequel for "Just a little fight" up next)
