Craig's POV:

3:14am.
I was woken up by a loud thundering noise that shook my whole flat. I sat up in my bed, breathing heavily, my palms sweating and my head pounding, my heart was beating so loud, and so fast, that i was creating shocks throughout my whole body.
A whimper escapes my lips as the rain poured loudly, a bolt of white hot lightning broke the utter blackness, cleaving the night in parts, but just for the briefest of moments. The thunder seemed to crack the air, as if the very heavens might split apart.

I couldn't breathe, what could i do? Who could i call? Tyler left my house not even 6 hours ago, but, he was the only one who knew how much storms scared me.
Should I?

Another bit of thunder erupted, making my breath catch in my throat, fear overwhelmed by body as i shook slightly. Fuck it.

I picked up my phone and sighed when it read 3:43am. I clicked on Tyler's contact, and called him.

Voicemail.
Tears lightly ran down my face, as i tried again.
One ring
Two rings
Three rin-
"Craig?" Tyler's sleepy and groggy voice came though the speaker.
"T-Tyler! Th-thank god you picked up, i know i-its early b-"
Another flash of lightening lit up my room, escaping through the barrier of my curtains and eliminating light onto me. A squeak left my mouth and i eyed the sky wearily.
Tyler, who had seem to have woken up some more, quickly started talking to me. "Oh shit Craig! The storm! Baby don't worry okay, i'm on my way!" He says quickly, but i panic. "No you can't! Ty if you take your car you could get in an accident and i-i could lose you!" i whimper, fat hot tears rolling down my cheeks in fear of losing my boyfriend.
"I'm on my way Craig."
"B-But Tyler-!" I protest, huffing when he hangs up on me.

30 minutes, of pure torture, later, i hear brutal banging against my door. Shivering, and whimpering from the loud booming noises, i exit my warm bed, going downstairs and opening my front foor. There stands Tyler, his dark brown hair is damp and flat across his forehead, blue eyes shining, and a smirk covers his perfect lips.
He's got a plain white t shirt and his signiture joggers on with high tops. Even in the rain, he looks perfect. Without a word, he quickly wraps his arms around me, somehow still incredibly warm after the harsh rain. I lightly shiver from the cold, but sigh in content as i snuggle deeper into his strong body.
We shuffle into my room, tightly holding onto each other, i rest my head on his chest and i feel my eyes droop as Tyler's hand starts playing with my hair, his other hand lightly running up and down my own arm, his legs intangled into mine, and that's how i fall asleep, cocooned by my boyfriend.

Its late in the morning when i wake up, the birds chirp quietly and the sun seems to shine despite the brutal thunder and lightening last night. I yawn quietly, looking around and smiling when i see Tyler sleeping next to me, his arm gripping tightly onto my waist.
Carefully, i detach myself from his grasp, and walk downstairs, getting a glass of water and starting breakfast.
The bacon in the pan starts sizzling and I jump when arms wrap around my waist.
"Morning Ty.." I say quietly, moving the bacon around.
"Good morning baby." He replies huskily.
I giggle, as his stubble runs across my neck. "Tyler! It tickles!" I complain, he just smiles and leans against the counter, watching me.
"What're you making?" He asks.
"Your favourite, of course." I can see him grin from the corner of my eye, making my cheeks heat up.
"Stop staring.." I mumble out, noticing his beady eyes watching me. "You're too beautiful to not look at." He replies.
I swear if my cheeks weren't red then they definitely are now.

After breakfast, Tyler helps me clear up, which ends up with me in his arms, i'm not sure how, but here i am, my head in his neck, his arms wrapped tightly around my waist as we gently sway.
"Thank you for coming last night, well, this morning" I say quietly, the noises muffled by his skin. He gently runs his hand up and down my torso, burrying his head in my hair. "Anytime, anything you want baby." He says back, making me smile slightly. "I love you.."
"I love you too, more than a storm loves destruction." He says back.
