He tried to back away and nearly fell out of bed. Then reality reasserted itself. Of course it wasn’t Narissa, it was his wife.

“Another Nightmare?”
He nodded. The memories that the witch had stolen before she put him into the mirror world were still foggy. Sometime they resurfaced in his subconscious. They were terrifying mostly because he couldn’t tell recollection from invention.
“I don’t know why you put up with me.”
She pulled him close so he could listen to her heartbeat while she stroked his hair. Sometimes he worried that this was the dream. It all seemed too good to be true.
“I just wish I could erase what happened to you,” Snow said.
“But then I would have died hundreds of years ago. We would never have met,” he replied.
“Do you mind? Not being immortal anymore?”
He looked up at her. “I was never really living until you came and found me.”
They shifted so that he could come and lie beside her properly. She leaned against him so that he could wrap his arms around her.
“You saved me, I hope you know that,” he told her.
“We saved each other.”
“Thank you,” he said, leaning in to kiss her. “Thank you for always waking up.”
