You lie on your front on Alex's bed with him next to you. There was a power cut and it was thunderstorming outside. You enjoyed the petrichor and the rumble of the thunder coming from outside. The room was silent though, but a comfortable silence.
"You're thunderstorms" Alex says, facing you.
"Hmm?" you mumble in reply.
"You're thunderstorms."
"What does that even mean?" you ask.
"Its a metaphor, you see." he explains.
"Right, okay" you say, smiling.
A rumble of thunder boomed from outside.
"My life was so quiet" he continues "you've made it chaotic" he says. He reads your facial expression. "In a good way of course" he says, smiling. "You're just so.." he struggles to find the word into the dark silence. "You're thunderstorms" he says finally. You smile.
"That's sweet" you say. The silence fills the room again until he starts slightly drumming on his knees. He begins humming a pretty song you haven't heard before.
"She's thunderstorms" he sings in barely a whisper. You guessed he didn't want you to hear out of embarrassment. You smile at his sweet voice and listen to the loud rumbles and the sound of rain outside.
"Im gonna miss you when you leave" you say. He stops singing.
"I'll miss you" he says.
