The night draped over the city like a velvet cloak, its embrace both comforting and ominous. From their balcony perch, Niko and Joonas watched as the city below came alive with a symphony of lights and sounds, a stark contrast to the intimate cocoon of tranquility they had created for themselves. Niko leaned into Joonas, seeking solace in the familiar warmth of his embrace. They sat in silence, the only sound the gentle hum of the city below and the soft rustle of the night breeze. But beneath the surface serenity, a storm brewed within Niko's mind, threatening to shatter the fragile peace they had found. As he nestled against Joonas, his thoughts drifted to the darkness that lingered on the edges of his consciousness, waiting to engulf him in its icy embrace. Suddenly, Niko's body tensed, a stifled gasp escaping his lips as the tendrils of his nightmare tightened their grip. His eyes snapped open, wide with fear, as the haunting echoes of his dreams reverberated through his mind. Joonas sensed Niko's distress immediately, his heart lurching at the sight of his beloved in turmoil. Without hesitation, he wrapped his arms around Niko, pulling him close in a protective embrace.

"Shhh," 

Joonas whispered his voice a soothing balm against the storm raging within Niko's mind. 

"You're safe. I won't let you go."

Niko's breath hitched as he buried his face in Joonas' chest, his heart racing with fear and uncertainty. The remnants of his nightmare clung to him like a suffocating fog, threatening to engulf him in darkness. But Joonas held him tight, his arms a sturdy anchor in the swirling sea of Niko's emotions. He pressed a tender kiss to the crown of Niko's head, his lips a silent promise of unwavering love and support.

"You're safe with me," 

Joonas murmured his voice a gentle melody in Niko's ears. 

"I'm here, and I'll never let anything harm you."

Slowly, ever so slowly, Niko's trembling began to subside, the steady rhythm of Joonas' heartbeat serving as a comforting lullaby. With each passing moment, the tendrils of fear loosened their grip on him, replaced by the reassuring presence of Joonas by his side. As the first light of dawn painted the sky in hues of pink and gold, Niko finally found the courage to speak.

 "I...I had a nightmare,"

 he admitted, his voice barely above a whisper.

Joonas tightened his embrace, his heart aching at the pain in Niko's voice. 

"Do you want to talk about it?" 

he asked softly.

Niko shook his head, his fingers curling into the fabric of Joonas' shirt. 

"I don't think I can," 

he confessed, his voice thick with emotion. Joonas nodded in understanding, his grip on Niko never faltering. 

"That's okay," 

he reassured him. 

"You don't have to talk about it if you're not ready. Just know that I'm here for you, no matter what."

Tears welled in Niko's eyes as he leaned into Joonas' embrace, his heart overflowing with gratitude for the unwavering support of the man he loved. In that moment, surrounded by the warmth and tenderness of Joonas' embrace, he knew that no matter what darkness lurked in the depths of his mind, he would always find shelter in love's embrace. As the sun rose higher in the sky, casting its golden rays over the city below, Niko felt a sense of peace settle over him. The remnants of his nightmare faded into the background, replaced by the gentle reassurance of Joonas' presence by his side. They sat together in silence, watching as the world awakened from its slumber, their fingers intertwined in a silent promise of unwavering devotion. As they basked in the warmth of the morning sun, Niko knew with absolute certainty that he was exactly where he was meant to be. With Joonas by his side, he felt invincible, ready to face whatever challenges life threw their way. And as they embarked on this new day together, hand in hand, Niko knew that their love would light the way, guiding them through even the darkest of nights.
