The thunder gets louder from outside, wind hitting the house.

I try to keep myself calm, but I've never seen a storm this bad before.

"Actually, you two can play. I'm taking a nap." Sapnap walked out of the room, winking at dream?

Dream stood up, going over to the window then sitting down next to it, peeking out looking at the storm.

Lighting flashes in the sky.

I feel myself start to shake a little, currling up my knees against my chest.

"H-hey Dream.. I-I'm gonna go in my room for a little."

"Ok, I'll be out here."

I stand up, my legs shaky.

Thunder roars as I walk up the stairs, making me stop in my tracks.

"George? Are you okay?" I hear from the living room.

"Y-yeah I'm fine."

I continue to walk up the stairs, into my room locking the door,

I sit on my bed and curl up under the covers.

I start breathing in and out, trying to calm myself down.

But it's not working.

My eyes get glassy, tears forming.

I hear the doorknob twist,

"G-george? Are you sure your okay? Let me in."

Dream says from outside.

"George please."

I don't answer.

"George?"

I don't want to let him in. But I don't want to make him feel bad.

I walk over to the door, opening it slowly.

He looks down at me, seeing the tears in my eyes and dried ones on my cheek.

He pulls me into a hug,

"Hey it's okay, what's wrong?"

I don't speak, I cant.

"Go sit down, I will get you water."

He walks out, looking behind at me as he walks down the stairs.

Then he walks back up, holding a water bottle placing it on the nightstand.

"Drink that, it might make you feel a little better and avoid you from getting a bad headache."

"t-thanks.." i mummer.

"Anytime, george."

he raps his arm around me, leaning in next to me giving me a side hug.

I feel safe.

My breathing gets a little more stable,

My hands a little less shaky.

I never really had anyone to comfort me through storms, And it definitely helped to have someone there.

Dream was always there, even if it used to be just on a call. If I needed help, he was there.

He wipes the tears off my face, I feel my face go warm.

"What happened?"

"I didn't want to tell you.." i say, "but im scared of storms, I know it's dumb but-.."

"It's okay, I get why it would be scary. I personally like storms, it's cool to me."

"what's something that would take your mind off it?" He asks.

"I would usually go on my phone, or watch something, but I cant really do that.."

"Y-you being here is helping though.." i mummer, smiling at him.

He laughs.

"What?" I ask, "why are you laughing?"

He smiles,

"Your just so cute sometimes.." he says quietly, laughing a bit.

I feel my face turn red, turning away slightly so he doesn't see my face.

I mean, I guess that did help me feel better..

I feel Dream move in a little closer, right against the side of me now, laying down about to fall asleep.

I scoot down a bit, laying next to him, my head on his shoulder.

We fall asleep, just like that.
