This one-shot just popped into my head and I couldn't think straight cause all I could think about was this idea in my head. So, I hope you like it. I know it's shorter than what I normally do, but oh well. Remember review!

Nightmares

Harry sighed as he slowly brushed his teeth in the bathroom before bed. He was so tired. Between working a longer-than-usual shift as an Auror today, and the doctor's appointment he and Draco had about the baby, he was absolutely exhausted. All he wanted to do was crawl under the covers with husband, and sleep. He was so glad he had a day off tomorrow. He knew Draco needed him, with his due date fastly approaching, and him having troubles getting around. Maybe it was time he took a few weeks off.

Putting down his toothbrush he spit and rinsed, drying his mouth with a nearby towel. Turning off the bathroom light he walked into the master bedroom and crawled under the covers after turning off the main and bedside light. Wrapping his arms around his very pregnant, almost asleep husband, he gently kissed Draco's lips causing Draco to smile. "Night Dray, I love you."

"Love you to, Harry," Draco said before closing his eyes and falling asleep. Harry smiled, and placed another kiss against his forehead before falling asleep himself.

Harry shot up when a soft whimpering noise woke him up. Looking down beside him, he saw the love of his life whimpering and turning restlessly. He sighed. Another terrifying nightmare was plaguing the thoughts of his lover. He debated with himself whether or not to wake Draco and risk doing more damage, or not wake him and force him to relive the most terrifying moments of his life. A blood curdling scream was the deciding factor as he quickly latched onto his arms and whispered frantically.

"Shh… Draco it's okay. Come on baby, wake up." Harry shook him gently, stroking Draco's sweat soaked bangs back and out of his eyes. He gently placed a kiss against his forehead. He watched his dragon's eyes shoot open in absolute fear, and sat up searching for his attackers frantically.

"Hey Dray, it's alright. Shh… I'm here. Shh… baby he'll never hurt you again, I swear. Voldemort is gone. Your parents are locked away in Azkaban, and will never be let out again. All the people who have ever hurt you can no longer hurt you. They are either dead or locked away in Azkaban. You're safe Dray. You'll always be safe with me."

Draco was quiet as he fought to control his breathing. He squeezed his eyes closed, trying to force the memories out of his mind that were still playing behind his closed lids. He hated being so weak. At least once a week he had terrible nightmares that left him shaking and crying in Harry's arms. And he hated it. He felt his daughter kick against his stomach, and gently rubbed it trying to calm her down. She always got like this after he had a nightmare, restless.

Slowly he opened his eyes and looked into the worried, frantic eyes of his husband. He smiled softly and reached out to lay his hand against his cheek. Without him, he wasn't sure he would have been able to survive this long.

Slowly Harry ran his fingers through Draco's shoulder length hair. Draco relaxed against his hand, this always calmed him down. "It's okay love. They're all locked away. I will never let anyone hurt you again, promise. Shhh. Just sleep, baby. I'll protect you," Harry whispered and Draco found his eyes slipping shut. He knew Harry would be there to chase the nightmares away, he always was.

So, you like? I don't think I liked this one very much. It seemed… rushed. But, let me know what you think with a review. Thanks
