Nick sat up, his eyes still adjusting to the dark. He was on the verge of tears, and before he knew he let out a loud sob.

Jerking Jeff eye's open, he sat up. "Nick?"

Nick tried to answer but another loud sob came from him. Jeff jumped to his feet and rushed over to the side of Nick's bed, and sat. "What's wrong?" He said, pulling his best friend into a tight hug.

"Night-"He gasped, "mare."

Jeff hugged him tighter, pulling himself to the side of Nick so they could both use the head frame to lean on. "Tell me what happened."

Nick gasped for air, again. "I can't."

"Please?" The blonde pulled his best friend closer and Nick laid his head on his shoulders.

Nick was shaken in tears. He finally answered, "I had a nightmare," he sniffled "about somebody that I love not coming home and appearing on the news the next day- dead."

He burst in tears again. Jeff ran his hand through Nick's hair and cuddled even closer. "Shhhh…."

He tried everything to calm him done but he wouldn't. He picked up the brunette's head so he could look him in the eyes, he smiled. Nick tried to smile but it just came out sad. Jeff eye flickered to Nick's mouth and back up to his eyes.

By the look in the brunette's eyes meant Nick knew that Jeff wanted to kiss him. Nick leaned in closer and the Jeff followed and their lips met gently. Nick moved his hand from his own lap to the blonde's neck and pulled him closer. Jeff slipped his tongue into Nick's mouth. The brunette let out a groan, which made Jeff smile in the kiss but it soon faded away when he remembered that Nick had been in tears just a few minutes ago. Not wanting to let their first kiss end, hopefully not their last, he had to pull away to breathe. He gently slid his hand that made its way from his shoulder to his butt, and placed on his knee. He finally pulled away from Nick. They both were out of breath. Nick's hand was still on Jeff's butt, not that either of them minded.

"Who was it?" Jeff whispered.

The brunette looked away and sighed, "You."

Jeff wasn't sure what to feel- scared, upset anger or loved. Nick cried over him not just a simple cry either; it was a long scared cry.

Jeff grabbed, gently, Nick's head and turned him to face him. He kissed him softly on the lips and said, "I think it time for bed." The blonde got off the bed and went to his, he had a smile planted on him face, and gapped his pillows and went back to his best friend's bed. He laid the pillows next to Nick's. Nick scooted over to make room for the blonde boy. Jeff crawled under the covers, pulling the brown hair boy closer to him. After a while they both fell in to a deep slumber.
