Lull me to Sleep
Rachel was roused from her sleep by a pretty strong thunder and a heavy weight over her. Well, she'd been aware of the thunderstorm because it's been waking her every ten minutes now. She growled perfectly knowing she was going to be sleepy and sore in the morning if the storm kept waking her up and if this heavy weight didn't stop crushing her or if this insistent hand didn't stop clutching so painfully at her stomach.
She opened her eyes to identify the source of her pain and was able to see dark hair when a lightning illuminated the room. She tried to move but she was completely trapped.
"Santana, what the-" Rachel stopped abruptly, being interrupted by a thunder and Santana's shriek.
That's when it clicked. After five months sharing an apartment with Santana, she just realized she was never going to stop learning new things about her roommate. Santana Lopez was scared of thunderstorms and there was no way she could deny it now that she was with her head buried deep into Rachel's neck, her hand clutching tightly at her pajama's shirt at her chest and the way her body was shaking. All that and…
"Santana, are you crying?" Rachel asked with an amused smile when she felt wetness in her neck.
"Fuck, yes! Make fun all you want, I'm fucking scared!" Santana shouted but it sounded muffled by Rachel's neck, making Rachel let out a loud laugh. "Damn it!"
"That's alright, Santana, I'm used to take care of scared little children, remember two months ago I spent a weekend in Lima? I took care of my little cousin that was scared of a storm too"
Santana pulled away from her neck and scowled at her, hitting her in the shoulder. "Yeah, go ahead and laugh!"
Rachel laughed hard bringing her hands to her face, covering it. Santana growled and tried to get out of the bed but Rachel took her arm quickly, pulling her back. The force of Rachel's pull made Santana fell over her once again and Rachel wrapped her arms around Santana tightly to avoid her from leaving the bed. She found this new information about Santana so adorable.
"Stay, roomy" Rachel cooed in a baby voice.
Santana growled but didn't try to pull away this time. Rachel giggled, perfectly knowing how much Santana hated when she called her that and even more when she talked to her that way. A thunder echoed through the room again making Santana's body tense and Rachel started to caress her back up and down trying to help her relax.
"This is so humiliating" Santana whined in her neck. Rachel chuckled.
"I think it's cute"
"How?" Santana growled, hesitatingly circling Rachel's waist with her arm.
"Well, you go around making everyone think you're so tough and brave when you're actually such a cutie, all afraid of a silly thunderstorm and slipping into your roomy's bed looking for comfort"
"Fuck you"
Rachel giggled at how sleepy Santana's voice sounded knowing that wasn't the way she intended for that to sound. She glanced towards the clock on her nightstand. It was a quarter after two, and it had been raining since twelve. She knew how exhausting Santana's job was and she was sure Santana hadn't sleep at all. Looking down she smiled at Santana's frown, her eyes now closed. Another thunder rumbled, making them both flinch but Santana only moved to bury herself even more into Rachel's body.
It made sense that she was calm now. Rachel remembered herself being scared of storms when she was a kid, and every time she sneaked into her daddies' bed for them to hold her until she wasn't scared anymore. It always worked.
Smiling at the memory, she tightened her arms around her friend and left a kiss on her head, giving her the comfort her daddies gave her in those moments. She closed her own eyes, letting Santana's warm body lull her to sleep.
