Astraphobia – A fear of thunder and lightning…
Happy birthday Bunny! Love you deary~ 3
Even as a small child she had hated thunderstorms, the loud thunder the flashes of lighting the savage wind. She hated them and ran into her parents bed when they occurred, as did every child when young. Snuggling between her parents where she was safe and sound.
Only problem?
She had never grown out of it.
She whimpered as the loud thunder roared outside her house and clenched her eyes shut at the lighting stuck and the rain pelted her window. Sadly she no longer lived with her mother and could not run into her bed for comfort.
Luckily she had her boyfriend to turn to and with a yelp at a partially window rattling crack of thunder she flung herself onto him and curled in on him trying to melt into him. Her nails dug small crests into his pale skin as she clung to him like a cat would when held over water.
Her boyfriend merely grunted and shifted, still semi asleep, and cracked open a brown eye. Without his glasses his vision was a bit blurry but he knew who it was and with a sigh he pulled her closer. He knew of her fear of thunderstorms and while being a man of science he saw it as unfounded he still comforted her.
He was a big old softie when it came to her. He nuzzled her neck as she trembled in his arms and laid a kiss to her racing pulse.
"Shh Kagome I'm here." She cuddled closer and nuzzled into his chest.
"Bruce…" She yelped again as a loud crack of thunder echoed in the night and he rubbed soothing circles on her back. It took a lot to scare him anymore, he had trained himself t not react to things normally lest the other guy come out and this was just another thing that he no longer batted an eye at.
Sadly Kagome would never get over her fear no matter what yet secretly he enjoyed it. He loved when she turned to him or comfort and affection and he knew that come the morning he would be buying Thor a gyro, thought he was not the cause of the storm he was known as the God of Thunder, the man had become addicted to them.
