~ damiano david imagines ~

midnights (short imagine)

i shifted around in the bed trying to convince my brain to fall back asleep, i was sleeping so peacefully before but couldn't seem to get myself back into that deep sleep,

i looked over to damiano who had found peace, asleep next to me, in the 6 years we had dated he went from being a deep sleeper, to having constant sleep issues and nightmares, to being a light sleeper, to being a somewhat deep sleeper again, i envied the peace he had.

i climbed out of the bed being careful not to wake damiano or any of our zoo of animals up, i walked slowly and quietly to the kitchen and grabbed a glass of water, i reached into the medicine cabinet for some more melatonin pills, i had already taken a couple but they didn't seem to do the trick, and besides the pills in my room weren't as strong as the ones in the kitchen.

i grabbed a quick snack and as i did so i felt two arms snake around my waist and a warm chest pressed against my back..

"mmm... why'd you leave.." damiano rumbled, still half asleep and in a gravely morning voice,

"i could't sleep.. and i was kind of hungry.." i said not looking up from where i was spreading cream cheese onto my bagel,

"how much melatonin did you take?" he asked as he leaned his beautiful face down onto my shoulders,

"just 2 pills.." i said quietly, it wasn't a total lie.. i had 2 just now and 2 when i first woke up,

"oh ok.. well.. come up to bed when you're done, no promises i'll still be awake though.." he said rubbing his eyes and heading back up the stairs.

i finished up my snack and eventually let my mind wander off, i wasn't tired yet so i sat there, still in thought, it didn't take too long for me to start overthinking..

'he doesn't love you anymore, what you have isn't real' i tried to block out the intrusive thoughts but couldn't so i just grabbed my water and walked up to me and damiano's shared master bedroom, i got into bed and tried to find peace as damiano already had.

i huffed and shifted to damiano's side of the bed, i tucked my head under his arm and to this he woke up, 'shit,' i thought,

"mmm... what time is it?" damiano said sitting up and rubbing his eyes,

"shh baby it's still the middle of the night, i'm sorry i woke you up, just go back to bed.." he shifted and turned away from me, i'm sure he didn't mean anything by it but all i could think about was

'see he doesn't even want to cuddle with you, he doesn't really love you'

"dami.." i said meekly, he turned to face me..

"what up bambina?" he said rubbing his eyes again

"do you really love me.." as i said it i realized how ridiculous it was, still a couple tears rolled down my face, damiano immediately took notice and lifted my face up by the chin with his finger, he used his thumb to wipe away the tears..

"dolcezza what kind of question is that?" he said and pulled me closer to him,

"i don't know i just.. i couldn't get the thoughts out of my head earlier.."

"oh.. well i hope you know no matter what tricks your mind plays on you i will always love you, i always have.." he kissed me softly before lifting his hands up the back of my shirt, rubbing my back,

"ok baby," i said and smiled up against the warmth of his chest..

"ti amo così dannatamente amore mio spero che tu lo sappia.." he spoke sotfly before kissing the top of my head, still rubbing my back..

"ti amo così tanto piccolo" i managed to squeak out before falling asleep, i slept more peacefully than ever..
