@homelander-rp-blog asked: ∗ o5﹕ sender  comforts  receiver  in  the  aftermath  of  a  nightmare . ( @homelander-rp-blog you pick your muse!) 100 nonverbal prompts : : OPEN

Sitting next to John on the back porch, Jamie shivers in the cold pressing his hands back over his windburned face. the snow has a warm glow to it that’s illuminated by the street lamps and it aches trying to slow his breathing down. he still feels the sharp pain of metal slicing through his skin; the shatter and crack of his bones mutilated and wrenched apart against his will. his shoulders tingle from a nightmare that mirrors their reality. his hands drop to his thighs and he watches the snow fall while John tells him he’s got him and they're safe and everything's ok. Jamie zones out listening to how he tries to get his attention through saying his name over and over flinching slightly when he feels John card a hand through the back of his hair. 

he feels embarrassment burn across his cheeks down the back of his neck. he was hired to protect John, not the other way around. The fact he's comforting Jamie feels wrong. “they were coming for you… they were killing me to get to you.. they were going to hurt you.” he finally admits the dream, turning his face away so John can’t move the hair from his eyes and he can hide behind the dark locks.
