I listen to her breathing as we lay entwined beneath the sheets. I can't sleep, thinking too much about last nights amazing sex.
I smile as she stirs beneath the satin sheets, her hand reaches for mine but I can see she isn't awake. She curls into a foetal shape and grips my hand tightly, something I've gotten used to these past few months.
Gently, I stroke her hair and whisper words of comfort. I hope she can hear me, I hope she knows that she's safe here with me.
Suddenly she jerks awake, sitting upright and gasping for breath. I sit up with her and stroke her back, as I've done most nights that I've spent here.
"Ed?" I ask softly.
She nods through tears and she buries her face into the crook of my neck. Pressing my lips against the top of her head I sigh, wishing there was something I could do to erase the nightmares.
