fireworks

there was fireworks and you felt extremely stressed and tensed, clutching onto a pillow and hiding under a blanket to block out the loud bangs. you had lost your father to a firework explosion, and ever since that day you had developed an intense fear for them.

sighing at your shaking form, Cobie lifted you, still wrapped up in the blanket, and carried you upstairs. gently, she laid you under your bed covers, hopping in next to you, and your cat Sparkles joined you too. you had named the cat, much to Cobie's dismay, but she loved you so she let you name is after her character whom you loved dearly.

"We're safe here," she reassured you. you reached a hand out of your blanket, it was shaking like a leaf, and your girlfriend gently held it, comforting you until you felt safe enough to emerge from your cocoon. she played some music on her phone, attempting to block out the loud bangs of gunpowder, which you were very thankful for. eventually, you came out of your blanket and stayed under the bed covers, laying your head under Cobie's hoodie, resting on her chest. she pulled it off and helped you put it on, making you feel secure.

"I will always protect you, no matter what," she kissed the tip of your nose. you said nothing, but instead held onto her shirt, bunching it up slightly in your grasp, letting her know you heard her.
