It's Just The Rain

Pov Karkat
My head quickly turns to the right of me when I hear the sound of a twig snap.
Where did that come from..?
I look into the darkness that surrounds me and see nothing but trees, dark stormy clouds, and rain.
My breathing speeds up when I hear yet another noise from the other side of me.
"W-who's there?" I close my eyes hoping that when I open them this could all be over.
Before I have the chance to question another thing a loud sound of thunder is heard across the sky. I let out a small squeak and shiver even more as I feel rain slowly run down my body.
I want to get out of here... Where am I? What's happening?
I hear another loud crash of thunder and see lightening light up the sky causing me to notice the silhouette of another person standing a foot or two in front of me. I let out a gasp before turning around to run and stop in my tracks...
There's no where to run...
I look around and see darkness. All the trees are gone... all the wildlife that surrounded me.
All I saw was the dark and gloomy sky along with the pouring rain... and... the figure...
I see it slowly move forward reaching its hand out to grab me before I scream.
~le poof~ (lol idek)
I quickly scramble up on my bed before looking around letting out a muffled cry hearing the sound of thunder and rain crashing on my window. I inhale the strong scent of rain and shivers are sent throughout my body.
My hands run through my hair trying to process the dream I just had. I sit in silence for a moment before trying to get the courage to stand and turn my lights on.
I look around the room, checking every corner of darkness and scanning my closet before shakily setting one of my feet onto the floor. I hold myself in my arms as I rush quickly to the one thing that keeps me safe from the darkness... light.
After flicking my bedroom lights on I grab my phone before returning to my bed and hiding myself in my blankets.
My breath quickens when I hear the sound of thunder once more.
I've had a major fear of rain and storms most of my life. They give me huge anxiety and panic attacks. Just the sound of rain makes me jump. Being alone on nights like this is a struggle. But I find my ways of distracting myself.
I hold my stuffed animal closer to my chest as I click open my screen to see it's around 2am-ish. I roll my eyes obnoxiously.
"Of fucking course it's not even close to sunrise. Why would it be?"
Once I enter my password I scroll over to skype to see if any of my friends are on, looking for someone to talk to. I take note that Dave is the only one on out of all my friends.
Why this douche. I'd rather talk to anyone except him... I mean... His voice makes me calm and everything and his nicknames make my heart skip a beat bu- Absolutley not. Stop this Karkat. Get over your stupid flushed crush for this asshat. He's never going to like you back anyways.
After a moment or two of debating the sound of thunder makes me click on Dave's contact and start typing.
'Hey fuckass.'
Pov Dave
I look out the window staring at the rain while slowly drinking apple juice.
I already took note it was around 2am but staying up late never bothered me, I do it all the time.
I watch as lightening dances across the sky following with the sound of thunder. Rain had always fascinated me and I never knew why. I thought it was just so intriguing to watch because you never know where it may strike next.
We got a weather warning about the storm earlier today and it got me really excited. I hear my phone go off and I pull it out of my pocket takin my focus off the window.
Looking at my notifications I see a message from... Karkat..? Why is he up so late? Shouldn't he be sleeping? Part of me becomes slightly concerned knowing Karkat would've been asleep hours ago.
I open my phone to skype viewing his message so I could quickly reply.
'Hey fuckass' Part of me rolls my eyes at the nickname he constantly uses for me.
Gosh he's so cute. He may have his anger issues at times but even then I think he's adorable when he's mad.
'Hey karkles what are you doing up so late? Shouldn't you be sleeping?'
I sit patiently before I receive a reply.
'Oh I just- wasn't tired I guess. Just needed someone to talk to. What are you doin?'
I quickly become more concerned taking note Karkat hadn't used one cuss word in his whole sentence and actually cared about what I was doing.
'Um- nothing much I guess. Karkat are you sure everything's ok? Mind if I maybe come over? I don't mind driving in the rain'
'The rain- oh uh... N-'
His message cut off as I heard a crash of thunder from outside.
'Karkat? You ok?'
'Oh I'm fine. Just heard a noise or something. But you don't have to come over I'm fine on my own fuckass.'
'Hmm... See you in ten minutes.'
I shut my phone off knowing this wasn't up for debate. Something was off with Karkat and I intend on finding out what it is. Is he possibly scared of the rain? I don't remember him ever bringing this up... It must be something else-
After throwing my empty can of apple juice away I throw on some proper clothes before putting on my red converse.
I grab my car keys to my red truck and head out the door.
It's ok karkles I'm comin.

I read the text dave sent me before sighing, frustrated.
The last thing I need is that fuckass here seeing me like this. I already get embarrassed enough around him. Since he wasn't answering my texts I assumed he was already on his way here.
I hide my head into my pillow regretting that I texted him in the first place.
Maybe he could give me some comfort... I could explain why I was so freaked out- No. He'd be weirded out by it. I'm such an idiot. Dear gog.
When I hear another sound of thunder from outside this crash louder than the last I squeak.
"Nonononono-" My breathing grows quicker once again.
"Please get here quickly Dave."
~Time skip~
My head slowly peaks up from my pillow when I hear a faint knock at the door. My mind slowly drifts back to the man in my dreams and I start to shake slightly, once again.
I hesitantly stand up letting out a small yawn. I walk down the steps bringing my blanket and stuffed animal with me. I approach the door and slowly open it.
On the other side I see Dave leaning against the door with his car keys in hand and a smirk on his face. His smirk quickly turns to a smile when he sees me with my blanket hanging over my shoulders, my stuffed animal being held to chest, my half opened eye lids, along with my messy yet fluffy black hair.
"Awhhhh oh my goodness. Karkles you're so precious and adorable."
I feel my face heat up before I flip him off.
"Just get your ass in here"
I look behind him to see rain still pouring from the sky and a nervous look appears into my face.
Dave quickly steps inside and I shut the door behind him.
"Y-you can just s-set your shoes t-there."
He gives me a nod before he slips his shoes off. He looks at me for a second before he brightens up.
Before I have time to realize what's happening dave scoops me up into his arms bridal style and carries me over to the couch.
"Dave what the fuck are you doing??"
He sets me down gently onto the couch setting me on his lap.
I look up to his shades and give him an annoyed look.
"What's really going on kitkat? You seem terrified... Of something. And I wanna help. Especially since you need your sleep other wise you're a smol angry kitten"
I lightly blush before relaxing into his touch.
"I mean... I don't know... I just. Smh. I had a bad dream of whatever... And the sound of-"
I hear thunder boom across the sky as if on perfect timing and I let out another squeak.
Dave holds me tightly in his arms and whispers sweet things into my ear. I lean myself into his chest gripping my stuffed animal.
"You're scared of the rain kitkat?"
I give a gentle nod and he lets out a small awe.
"Do you want to talk about the dream?"
I sniffle a bit remembering how frozen and terrified I was while asleep and shake my head no.
"Well... You seem really tired karkles. I'll help you fall asleep if you want me to."
I look up to him where his eyes should be-
"Yes please"
He picks me up once again before taking me into my room and setting me under the covers.
Dave sits on the side of the bed before he starts gently humming. He softly pets my hair and I let out small purrs moving into his touch. My eyes slowly start to close before I hear dave stand from the bed.
"W-wait... please don't go... will you... stay with me?"
I peer up to see Dave give me a soft smile and he nods. He walks back over to my bed and climbs in. I scoot over to make room for him and his body lays next to mine.
I feel his arms wrap around my body as he pulls me closer into him. I rest my hands on his chest as I continue to purr as he pets me.
As I drift to sleep the very last thing I hear him softly mumble is...
"Don't worry kitkat... I got you... and I love you. I promise, it's just the rain."
