Sleep Tight


Pairing: Sara/Warrick

Notes: For the LiveJournal CSI100 Angel titles challenge.


 

For as long as she can remember, Sara has been plagued by nightmares. The ghosts of cases past and present play themselves out in her mind, grislier and bloodier than reality, her fevered imagination adding further obscenities. She woke in a cold sweat at best, screaming at worst, and sleep a distant memory.

 

The first time Warrick was there when it happened, she thought she’d never see him again.

 

Instead he just pulled her to him, held her tightly, and when she went back to sleep, his arms staved off the dreams.

 

They still do, and for that, she’s grateful.
