Alfred woke up to his boyfriend rolling against his side, he looked over to see Im with a pained expression, moving around on the bed, basically flailing. He sat up and shook Im lightly, when that didn't work he shook him harder until the Korean's eyes opened.

"Al?" He looked around with a mix of panic and confusion until he refocused on Alfred, "AL!" He sat up, almost knocking heads with Alfred and hugged him.

"Im?" Alfred hugged back and rested a hand on the back of Im's head, "What's up?"

Im started sobbing softly, catching the attention of his lover and making him worry and then Im stuttered into his explanation, "I-we-and then North was there and-Seoul-and Russia a-and Ch-China and the f-fire! Oh God the fire..." Al realized he'd had a nightmare and hugged him tighter, remembering the day Seoul burned.

"It's okay, Im, it's okay now." Alfred buried his face into Im's hair, "Remember? I threw a fire blanket onto you? It's okay."

"Why?" Im tugged on Alfred's night shirt, "Why'd he do it? He's...he's my bro-other." The voice crack on the word 'brother' almost made Alfred crack himself but he knew he had to stay strong for Im.

"He isn't thinking straight right now." Alfred replied and glared at the wall behind Im, holding Im closer so he wouldn't see the anger in Alfred's eyes, "He's been influenced by bad people." He remembered the Cold War and sighed, managing to get his temper in check.

"I'm glad I found you." Im admitted shyly, slowly calming down from his nightmare panic.

"Don't you mean you're glad I found you?" Alfred asked, ruffling Im's hair as the smaller boy made a noise of complaint, quickly fixing his hair.

"Yeah sure, like, whatever." Im looked up and smiled at Al, "I'm glad you're the one who decided to help me." He said with an innocent look in his eyes.

"Me too, I'm glad you're with me." Alfred pulled back slightly from Im to cup his face and brush the tears that had escaped his eyes, "You okay now?"

Im nodded, "Yeah I'm good. It was just the um..memories." He snuggled back into Alfred's embrace, "Salanghae."

"I love you too." Alfred responded and lied down, bringing Im with him, "Let's try to sleep before that fuckin alarm goes off. We've got three hours."

"'Kay." Im pulled the covers up to his chin and Alfred hugged him close to his chest, closing his eyes and slowly falling asleep with Im tucked close to him protectively.
