Chapter 3- What You Fear

Momo sniffled Pull yourself together...Momo she thought as she got up and wiped her tears. Grabbing her bags she headed out not knowing it was starting to rain. She walked outside and immediately regreted it raindrops poured on her as she felt her legs freeze. No not now she thought she had never got over her Ombrophobia(1) and her Astraphobia(2). Her hands started to numb as she dropped her bags, the sky glowed with thunder and lightning. She whimper her teeth clattered as she was trembling at the sound. She was soaked but she could not move her legs as they started to give out. Her vision darkened as she fell over. "Hinamori!" she heard a voice but she was too tired to look she felt herself cry again as the lightning flased across the sky. She felt strong hands catch her but she was already out cold.

Toshiro was finished soccer practice with Reni and Ichigo when it started to rain Thunderstorm eh? he thought as he told his friend he was going to go first. He walked past the window from before and glanced inside, no one was there. He sighed as he continued to walk as the rain poured Toshiro took out his umbrella, he put it over his head when he saw a familar person standing in the middle of the sidewalk. His eyes widened when he saw the girl fall "Hinamori!" he called as he rushed over to the girl catching her a second before she hit the ground.

Momo woke with a jolt thunder roared in her eyes as she trembled pulling her knees to her chin. "W-where am I?" she asked her head shaking as she looked around. Another bolt of lightning made her wimper as she surpressed a scream. "You awake?" asked a voice she was not familar with but as he walked into the room Momo realized he was Toshiro "W-why am I here" flinching at the sound of the lightning. "You passed out...so I brought you to my house.. I called your parents but no one pcked up..." he said crossing his arms as he walked over to her "Are you okay?" he asked. Momo nodded as she tried to stop shaking. She made a squeak when the lightning flashed. Toshiro smirked "You have a fear of rain, thunder and lightning don't ya?" Momo nodded slightly as she quickly cover her ears and shut her eyes again whimpering. Toshiro sighed then sat beside her and pulled her into his arms. He patted her back "It's okay" Momo was too scared to pull free from him as she clutched his shirt when the thunder hit. Toshiro glanced at the scared girl something about her made him want to protect her "..." He pulled her tighted into the embrace waiting for the storm to end.
