A tiny black sliver appeared on Eddie’s pillow as he tossed unrelentingly in his sleep.

“Eddie...Eddie…” the low growl quietened for a moment, then loudly, “EDDIE!”

Eddie came to with a start. His eyes opened the barest amount to take in the frankly comical sight of Venom, no bigger than a mouse, sharp teeth still a stark contrast to its pitch black viscous body.

“Whaaaat.” Venom wasn’t fooled by Eddie’s grumpy exterior.

“We were having a nightmare, but you didn’t wake up with me.”

Eddie lifted a hand up and used a finger to gently stroke Venom’s tiny chin.

“Oh, I don’t remember it…”

“Well, we were—“

“No!” Eddie rubbed the sleep from his eyes. “No it’s okay. I don’t want to be reminded.”

Venom narrowed its eyes, and opened its mouth to speak, before thinking better of it, instead choosing to emerge further from its place in Eddie’s heart, and cuddling itself around the now small human beside it.

Eddie smiled at the feeling of Venom’s arms around him, and naturally started to wriggle himself back into the black warmth against his skin. As he failed to stifle a yawn, Eddie hoped the teasing was still audible in his voice.

“I thought you…preferred being little spoon now?” he turned his head just enough to land a kiss on Venom’s cheek, smiling. But Venom didn’t take the bait.

“Yes, Eddie, I do like being little spoon, but you were terrified before you woke up - we were together and I could feel it.” The symbiote paused for a second, wrapping its arms tighter around Eddie. “And besides...why spoons? Other utensils fit together neatly...you could be a little knife...or a big fork.”

“You’re a big fork. And don’t think I didn’t notice you being all soft and protective there. Changing the subject can’t hide the truth.”

Venom squeezed Eddie’s belly softly, leaning its mouth close to his ear.

“And what truth would that be?”

Eddie hummed softly, sending gentle vibrations through Venom’s body.

“That you want to protect me. And not because you’re parasitically dependent on me...but because…” he yawned, and the rest of his words came as a barely audible mumble as sleep began to take over again, “because you love me.”

Venom grinned wide and closed its eyes.

“I do, Eddie. I love you.”
