Corey jolted awake, thunder startling him out of his sleep.

As he tried to slow his heart and breathing down, he felt strong arms that had been locked around him.
Corey turned lightly, seeing Elton.

The two were under the blanket, Elton behind Corey, holding him close to his chest.

Corey put his hands on Elton's arms, sighing.
He closed his eyes, snuggling closer to the older male.
Elton felt the wiggling Corey made, eyes fluttering open.

For a split second, their eyes met.
Elton blushed and started to pull away.
"Please...don't." Corey said quietly.
"With that storm I'm...kinda scared and cold. You're comforting and warm." Corey whispered.

Elton smiled.
He closed his eyes, resting his head on Corey's shoulder.
The blanket was thrown over them, the two curling up close to each other.

They both fell asleep with smiles and blushes on their faces.
