I wake up with another nightmare again but at least Blaine and I got some somewhat sufficient sleep before hand.

I feel bad that I keep waking him up but he keeps assuring me that it's fine and that he'd rather wake up and make sure that I'm alright anyway.

"Ok, so, I've looked up some things that can help with nightmares." Blaine says from the round table in the corner of our hotel room. He has his laptop out in front of him.

I move to sit opposite him. "At this point I'm willing to try anything, what you got?"

"It says here about Imagery Rehearsal Therapy, which is where you change the ending.  You go over the nightmare and change the ending into something better. You keep going over it while you're awake so your brain sees it as not so scary anymore and so your brain now remembers the ending you've come up with. It can help reduce the frequency of nightmares."

"So you're telling me either way I have to go over everything." I say, putting my head down on the table.

"I'm telling you that you can take back control." He says.

"This is fucked up."

"I know." He replies and I lift my head. "Where there's a will, there's a way."

I suddenly burst out laughing. I put my hand over my mouth to try and contain it.

"You laugh at the most random things." Blaine says. "I could say 'weather is nice today' and you'd start laughing." He says and it makes me laugh even more.

"I don't know how to explain it." I say in between laughs. "Some things that you say immediately sound funny coming out of your mouth." I explain. "I don't know weather it's the fact that you're a mafia leader and you say such normal things or it's the fact that you're all posh-"

"Oh so it's a making fun of me laugh?" He raises his eyebrows with a smile

I shake my head, my laughs dying down. "No you just- the laughing isn't to make fun of you it's because you're so adorable and totally unexpected. You make me happy, you should take that as a compliment."

Blaine smiles in return. "I fucking love you."

"I fucking love you too." I reply. "Can we go and see Frinkles and Whisper now?"

He half heartedly rolls his eyes. "Sure, let's go."
