[Zack had learned how to be a light sleeper in his time at ShinRa. After all the time he spent sleeping in mako for years his sleeping got even worse. It was hard for Zack to get tired enough to sleep and when he did it usually didn't last too long either.
With Leon he is content in his sleep for once. He was so used to having Cloud at his side for months that it was hard to sleep with no one else around him. Of course it had been rare him and Cloud shared the same bed, but yet sharing with Leon felt right. The man's scent had lulled him to sleep more than the cozy weight at his side had.
The whimper is what starts to rouse Zack from his sleep. He yawns and stretches, still tired but slowly becoming aware of things. Rubbing his eyes in the dark room he looks around and remembers Leon is here. His eyes are glowing bright in the darkness, the only sort of light as he sees the man tossing a bit in his sleep. He starts to get a little worried and then suddenly Leon is up and awake and trying to get out of the bed.
Zack knows exactly what's going on, none of the details but he knows this is a night terror. He quickly turns to his nightstand to turn on a light and then is looking at Leon. He wants to hold him but he doesn't want to spook him more than he already is.]
Hey buddy, it's okay. You're okay, we're okay. Take a few deep breaths for me, alright?
[He has a hand extended to the man, taking a few calming breaths as example. If Leon takes his hand is on him but he's offering the touch to him.]
It's around three in the morning, I moved you to my bed since you fell asleep. It's just us, nothing will hurt you in this space, okay?
