Title: Sleep
By: *bright
Fandom: CSI: Vegas
Pairing: Nick/Warrick
Words: 155I hold him close, like all these days that have passed. Bury my nose in his hair, breathe him in and hope he'll finally find some peace of mind. He needs to sleep, rest those weary eyes and sink into oblivion. Escape the gruesomeness of what we see and meet, escape into me.
He's not even safe in his sleep anymore, hasn't been in a long time. What he sees when he closes his eyes, I can only begin to imagine. Can't tell him to forget and move on, can't ask him for something I haven't been able to do myself. They have haunted me too, messed with my head enough to have me right where he's right now.
I hum him to sleep. Wait till his fingers stop twitching between my own. I promise him things that are impossible to keep. But I'll always be trying.
I'll carry him over to the new day.
