I own no right to Ren and Stimpy**

~Ren's POV~

It was half past 8 pm. The sound of rain from outside made me sigh in comfort. The thunder was a good addition, as well. God damn, I love the weather. Especially storms. Unlike my stupid idiot friend, who absolutely despises them. Fuckin' baby.

I was sitting on the couch, looking out the window. Nothing really out of the ordinary; smoking, watching the rain, nice and quiet night. Especially since my stupid friend wasn't home.

Stimpy usually works around this time at night. He comes home around 11 pm. He always comes home in a daze. I really don't know what he does to help pay the bills around here. It gets so damn annoying. All I want is to not pay the bills around here and have Stimpy help out, ya know?

I sigh and put out my cigarette.

"It's so boring…"

I look around casually. The living room is pure emptiness.

I lay back on the couch, my hands resting on my stomach, staring at the ceiling.

"I wonder when dumbass will be home today… You know he never seems happy anymore. Well," I sit up and stare at the window, as if someone was listening to me. "I mean… he's happy, but… not quite "there"…if you see what I'm saying. It's almost like he's trying to tell me something." I look away then my ears perk up. "What am I even talking about?" I lay back down, hands behind my head, sighing without a care in the world. "He's not hiding anything."

After a few hours, I hear the door start to open. At this time, I'm almost asleep, but manage to open my eyes.

"Stupid rain!" Stimpy says as he closes the door behind himself.
I sit up and rub my eyes, stopping slightly to stare at him.

Stimpy looked like a dripping wet hot mess. His dark red hair completely rustled his red shirt with white sleeves, soaked. His glistening blue eyes were staring down at his deep blue jeans.

"Ohhh…!" He whines as he dusts himself off, knowing it won't do anything, but still attempting. "I'm all soaked!"

I stare at him. Man oh man… Stimpy was looking… pretty good for today. I don't know why but for some reason, he looked…amazing. He's a hot mess. I mean, messy hair, wet clothes… Something about him just drove me crazy.

"W-Well…." He looks over at me "What did you do today, Ren?"

I get up and walk over to him, unsure of whether to smack him for getting the carpet wet, or grab him by his shoulders and just make out with him there.

"uhh nothing…" I shake my head to get my thoughts gathered. "Why are you just standing there, huh? Get in the fucking shower before you leave a puddle on the damn floor."

Stimpy nodded and smiled, "Oh! Of course!" He runs upstairs and straight into the bathroom.

I sigh and follow him. Making sure I stayed out of sight though. I smirk and sneak up behind the door, peering through the keyhole. I licked my lips at what I saw.

Stimpy was stripping every inch of wet clothing, his jeans first, then his shirt. He ruffled up his hair some more and smiled as he turned to look in the mirror. He giggles and makes some faces.

I groan softly at his stupidity and keep watching.

Stimpy, now pulling down his boxers, is smiling and humming slightly. "Oops! I forgot my soap I bought…" He slips his boxers back on, and opens the door but stops as he sees me on the floor with my tongue out.

I slowly look up at him and blink twice. I wonder what I looked like; probably a stupid teenager back in High school peeping in the girl's locker room. Christ…have I stooped that fucking low?

I spring to my knees and glare at him, clenching my hands into fists. "W-WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?! AREN'T YOU TAKING A FUCKING SHOWER? AND WHY ARE YOU HALF NAKED?"

Stimpy stared at me, confused and dimwitted. "I bought some new soap, but I forgot to bring it in the bath with me…" He smiled at me, oblivious to the fact that I was peeping on him. "But don't worry, that's all I'm getting!" He walks past me and grabs his little bar of…fancy-ass pink soap.

I growl in annoyance and pinch his arm. He yelped and turned to face me. "Now stay in there and don't come out till you're finished!" I growl.

Stimpy nodded and proceeded into the bathroom.

God, he's such a moron. Why do I even bother keeping him here? Because I can't do anything by myself. I froze up at the mere thought. I can do shit on my own! I only need Stimpy here so he can buy me smokes and drinks and shit! What else would I need him around for?

I sigh and lay down on my side of the bed, turned away from the bathroom door. The soft silky navy blue pattern on the sheets was simply too inviting. I sink into the sheets and nudge into my pillow.

"Fuck." I sigh heavily and bite the comforter.

-That night…-

Something kept nudging me.

"Ren?" A soft, scared little voice spoke. "Renny?" The voice became clearer, "I'm scared, Ren…"

I groaned, wanting to just punch him until he passed out from the blunt trauma. "What. Do. You. WANT?" I glare over at him.

Those soft blue eyes stared at me. I could see that he's been crying for a while now. Immediately, my glare softened and I got a little worried.

I sat up and turned over to face him. "Hey hey, what's the matter, buddy?"

Stimpy lunged at me, hugging me tightly and started to cry into my chest. "I'm scared, Ren! I-I-I had a nightmare that you didn't care about me anymore and-and-and tossed me away!" He cried and tightly hugged me.

My ears went back, not from the lack of oxygen, but from what I was hearing. Of course I'd never do that, but…what would give him that kind of dream? Oh god, what the hell am I even thinking?! This is Stimpy for god's sake! He always has strange ass dreams to associate for his strange ass behavior!

"A-Alright Stimpy, c-can I at least breathe?" I gasp out. He releases me and I try to catch my breath. "Ok….what would've given you that kind of dream? I mean, it's not like you're out of place here or anything, right?"

Stimpy looked down, wiping tears from his eyes. He didn't respond to the question. I start to get worried, for real this time. My ears drooped at the silence.

"Stimpy…? Right?" I nudge him into agreeing with me.

He finally looks at me, as if he is forced to answer. "Y-yeah…I don't feel out of place, Ren…" He smiles. "It was just a silly dream! I'm sure it won't ever happen!"

"Y-Yeah! Now get back to sleep." I said hurriedly, wanting to not speak about it anymore. I turn away and pull the covers up close to my chest and close my eyes.

I feel Stimpy turn away from me and I hear a small sniffle as the room gets silent. A soft rumble of thunder rolls as a flash of lightning illuminate the room for half a second. I sigh and close my eyes, drifting off to sleep for the night.
