—————————————————

    The rain pounded relentlessly against the windowpane of Luke's cozy room, the sounds of thunder echoing through the room like a pot clarterongnto the floor . A purple eyed male, his hair disheveled, bolted upright in bed. His heart raced, his breaths shallow. Moisture clung to his clammy palms. He could not deal with thunder.
Rain? Yes
Wind yes
Even snow
But thunder. Oh no no
Not wanting to wake hi boyfriend,Luke as he has to go to his part time job tomorrow(they are stil in school he just works at like a music shop on the corner on Saturday mornings) he put his head into his pillow and tried to take deep breaths. This didn't work
"Damn it damn it damn it!" He exclaimed quietly,as j felt small tears sting his eyes, he was starting to cry. He wiped his eyes with his,well,one of Luke's old zip up hoodies he has on in bed and sniffled.
As another crash of thunder occurred ,followed by a flash of lightning, his breathing became quick and hitched,he was nearing a panic attack.

As Zander was sitting up,he felt movement coming from next to him,stirred from his sleep, Luke fluttered his eyes open,his auburn hair tousled. It took him a minute to adjust as he had just been asleep, but as soon as he figured out what was going on, greatly helped by the thunder and his boyfriend jumping at it He reached quickly out, his hand resting tenderly on Zander's shaking shoulder. "Hey," he whispered softly, his voice infused with concern. "What's up,hon?"

Zander turned towards Luke, his lavender eyes wide with fear,ussally they were so calm. "I-I can't do this, Luke. The thunder, it's too loud. I feel like I can't breathe," he stammered, tears welling in his eyes.
    Lukes eyes widened and he shifted closer, pulling Zander into a warm embrace resting his head on Zanders and putting his arms round him. "Shh... I'm right here, Zander. You're safe," he murmured, "for now try and focus on your. Breathing ,it's very fast, listen to mine and it will help you" his voice like a soothing melody,though it was slightly raspy, as he had just awoke. Zander listened to the rise and fall of his chest and tried to mimic it best he could to calm down

"The thunder can't hurt you,it's out there"He gently stroked Zander's back, his touch providing a comforting anchor.
    As the storm raged on outside, Luke pressed soft kisses to Zander's forehead, and whispering promises of protection.
"Listen to the rain, Zander. Focus on the droplets and not the loud crashes , rain can be soothing sometimes" he whispered, his voice a tender lullaby.
"And!" He spoke looking at Zander "if you count straight from when the last thunder happened to the next ,that's how many miles away it's happening,and I counted about 15 seconds so, it can't hurt us dear" he said and kissed his lovers neck
Zander nestled closer to Luke, feeling the steady rise and fall of his chest against his own. Gradually, the fear that had gripped him to goth began to melt away. In the embrace of Luke's arms, the storm outside seemed distant and insignificant.
    With each gentle touch and whispered word, Zander's racing heartbeat slowed and breathing became calmer . He closed his eyes, surrendering himself to the sensation of safety and love that enveloped him. And soon, lulled by the symphony of raindrops on the window, he found his eyes slowly shutting ready to sleep, knowing that Luke would be there, regardless , even in the midst of the storm.
