I
just re-read Elemental Gypsy's "Stormy Sunday" and "Cocktail Party" and
got inspired to write my own SpencerxRobert ficlet. It's only 663 words
total so it's not that long and will probably not be continued unless
there is a great demand. Anyway... please read and review.

Spencer walked through dark, dank, cold halls looking for a certain German nobleman. The 24-year-old Russian had moved into his lover's ancient castle two years before and still had trouble finding his way around some times. It was an especially difficult task on dark stormy nights such as it was. The power had gone out a few minutes before and he was now wandering around the halls looking for the nobleman. Unfortunately, Robert wasn't in any of the rooms he used on a regular basis which meant that Spencer was now searching random rooms for his griffin. Spencer sighed, giving up on his search. He went back to the master suite and lit several candles before settling himself in the large overstuffed leather chair that was sitting in front of the balcony doors. He watched as lightening flashed through the sky creating unique patterns each and every time.
Robert waited to open the bedroom door until there was a loud crack of thunder hoping to conceal his entrance. He knew that Spencer had been looking for him simply because the Russian whale always looked for him when there was a storm. He had asked Spencer about it once, but the blond had simply shrugged and said that he liked to watch the storm pass by with his noble lover. Robert slipped into the room and closed the large door as silently as he could. He smiled when he realized that Spencer hadn't noticed his entrance; too taken by the storm to notice much of anything about his surroundings. Robert walked over grateful that the new plush carpeting in their bedroom silenced his footsteps.
Spencer looked up when he felt a hand on his shoulder and smiled at Robert. "I was looking for you. Where were you?"
"I was getting one of the guestrooms ready on the other side of the castle. I have no desire to put Johnny and Tala in a room on the same side of the castle as us. Those two have absolutely no respect or concern for those around them at night." Spencer chuckled softly before pulling Robert down into his lap.
"You are talking about Johnny and Tala. They were the ones that started making out and feeling each other up in front of everyone at the BBA reunion last year before Kai threatened to castrate them. They're bound to be even less shy when it's just our two teams and their lovers around." Robert sighed and relaxed in Spencer's arms as he nodded his agreement. The two were hosting a small get together of sorts for their teammates and their lovers. That meant that not only were the Majestics and Blitzkrieg Boys, including Ian and Kai, were going to be there but also Miguel, Kevin, and Ray. They were both looking forward to it, but they were not looking forward to having to listen to Johnny and Tala at night.
"Spence?"
"Hmm?"
"Why do you always come looking for me whenever it starts to storm?"
"I told you, I like to watch the storm pass with you."
"Do you honestly expect me to believe that?"
Spencer sighed before thinking how best to respond to the griffin's question. "I suppose it's a hold over from my days at the abbey. Whenever there was a bad storm we would all gather in one room and stay together until it passed. At first it was because the others were terrified of storms since they were so young, but that only lasted a few years. Then it was just a habit that continued and brought us a little comfort in that hellhole."
"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make you talk about the abbey. I know you hate to."
Spencer kissed Robert's head gently. "It's okay. It was a harmless question and I don't mind remembering things like that." They fell into a comfortable silence as they cuddled together in the candle light and watched the storm rage outside their balcony doors.
