That shot was the first thing I wrote on Revenge, I never thought I'd post it but it reminds me a good time in my life that will never return so I decided to post.
Lightning streaked across the sky, thunder roared furiously, the rain was getting worse, a great storm had reached the Hamptons, Conrad slept peacefully in one of the rooms of Grayson Manor when he was awakened by a soft voice and visivelmmente scared that asked:
-Can I lay here with you?
He smiled, it was Victoria and her fear of storms, he lit the lamp and said:
-Sure.
She lay shaking and clutched the covers as if they could protect her, he touched her shoulder realizing how much was cold and asked:
-Victoria Is everything okay?
-Yeah ...
-Are you sure?
-'I'm afraid! Do not you think we should have gone to the bunker?
Victoria asked this almost whimpering, Conrad had to suppress a laugh as he said:
-Victoria exaggeration-which is only a storm will not have a hurricane!
-'You laugh and talk as if a storm were something wonderful!
-Sorry I was just trying to reassure her!
Victoria rolled her eyes at exactly the moment when the light faded, she twitched her lips pressing and holding the covers even more, this time he did not hold the chuckle before speaking:
-Try Sleep not worth going out of your bed, come here and continue scared!
-Yeah you're right!
-You said I'm right ?! Now I was really worried!
He said with a laugh, she laughed and turned to him saying:
-There Is a first time for everything, just do not get used to it and now good night!
-Good night dear!
After replying that he was trying to reconcile the smiling sleep and he was about to be taken by him again heard the voice of Victoria who asked softly:
-Conrad Is sleeping?
-N-no ...
-I Was yes!
-Almost but why?
-A Rain is getting worse too!
-And what's surprising about that?
-I'm afraid for the children, Daniel and Charlotte are not home!
-Why God Victoria Daniel and Charlotte are not more children a long time and can take care of, so please let me sleep!
-All right, as moodiness !
-1:35 am Yeah, that would explain my mood!
She said nothing and he was sorry he had spoken to her like that, so we ended up asking:
-Sorry Vic, is that I'm tired I had a full day!
-All right, good night!
The roughness in her voice was clear but he did not bother to try to fix anything, after all it was an exaggeration, she acted as if they lived on the street or in a cabin that could be blown away in seconds, deep down he felt funny and even cute. Minutes passed and an extremely loud thunder roared, accompanied by lightning that surely fell a few yards from the mansion, Victoria jumped leaving a moan and approached Conrad smiled and said:
-Calm down it's alright!
-I'm really scared!
-I'll protect you, I'm here for this!
After ensuring that he hugged her and oddly enough she did not pull away, instead snuggled further into his arms placing her head on his chest, in minutes her breathing changed and he realized that she slept in his arms with a slight smile, Conrad on the other hand did not sleep, could not, spent the rest of the morning watching his beloved sleep and stroking his hair, he was tired but wanted to enjoy that moment so rare, inwardly he wished storms started to be more frequent , maybe even every night.
Well that's it I hope you enjoyed, it was written while watching the second season, so I can say what goes in it.
