Author's Notes: Another companion piece to Hopelessly In Love. Sorry guys love Mark/Phoebe. They're just too cute not to handle. There is also Mimi/Roger in this as well. Now, this was slightly inspired by another ficcy by GoreousSmile: Fear in which Roger has a fear of spiders and Mimi comes to her rescue. Really cute. You have to read it. Hope you don't mind Goreous, blame the evil plot bunnies. Let me know what you guys think of this one.
Thunder Rolls:
By: LOSTrocker
Crash!
"Shit," cursed Phoebe and jumped into Mark's arms.
A thunder storm rolled outside. Phoebe hated storms. They terrified her. Mark put his arms around her protectfully. "Don't worry, I got you." he whispered.
Crash!
She yelped again. Phoebe hid her head in Mark's chest. Josh use to tease her about her fear of storms, but Mark was different. He understood. Everyone was afraid of something.
"We're okay as long as the lights don't go out." stated the filmmaker.
It went dark.
"You had to say something didn't you?" Phoebe asked.
"Benny could have turned the power off, but I doubt it," Mark suggested. "But after the paycheck I gave him this week, he shouldn't have."
"Hey guys," Roger said.
Phoebe jumped once more.
Roger and Mimi had come up from Mimi's apartment. "The power is out."
"No shit sherlock." replied Phoebe.
He could hear the fear in her voice. "Don't tell me you're scared of a thunderstorm."
"Says the rocker that is scared of spiders." Mark retorted, coming to his girlfriend's defense.
Mimi laughed. "I thought you weren't to tell anyone." Roger said to her.
"I couldn't help it." Mimi remarked. "It was just too funny."
"Dammit," cursed Phoebe. "I wish this storm would end."
"I like storms," Mimi replied. "There fun. I like being scared."
"Speak for yourself." the writer responded as she continued to gling onto Mark.
"Hey Mark," Roger called out to the filmmaker. "We should get some candles and light up this joint."
"Yeah," he agreed.
Phoebe got up. "This will only take a second." Then he went to help Roger find some light.
Before they went about their search, Roger couldn't help but remark: "And don't worry Pheebs, Meems can totally kick some ass if the Boogeyman tries anything."
"Hey Rog," Mark replied. "Spider."
The rocker yelped. "WHERE?!"
"Don't mess with my girlfriend." Mark said.
"He got you good." laughed Mimi.
"Whatever," Roger hissed. "Lets go find some damn candles so Phoebe won't be scared anymore."
It didn't take the two long before the place was once more was lit up. "Well, this is kind of romantic." Mark complimented.
"Yeah, it a creepy kind of way," Phoebe said with a laugh.
The two went to ask their friends what they thought but they were heavily making out, soaking up the romantic atmosphere. "C'mon." Mark said and took Phoebe's hand and lead them to his room so their two friends could have some privacy.
Mark gentally pulled Phoebe down with him onto the bed and secured her in his arms and began to follow Roger's actions that took place only second before. It wasn't long before Phoebe forgot about the storm that raged outside, and was brought into into the protectivness which was Mark Cohen. She was no longer afraid...
Fin.
Author's Notes: (continued): Sorry guys for the sudden RENThead/Anthony/Mark mode. I'll be posting several Mark centric stories until this mode dies down, which probably won't until my Anthony CD I ordered gets here... So yeah, besides the plot bunnies I blame that too!
