The cliched storm chapter! Yay!
Maria and Alexi were walking through Central Park, drinking coffee.
Alexi was drinking a tall, mocha https frappucino and Maria was drinking an ice coffee.
"How can you stand all that sugar?" Maria joked.
Alexi smiled at her and said,"How can you stand not having all this sugar?" Alexi asked.
"I've go all the sugar I need." Maria said, pulling Alexi into a kiss. Alexi blushed and Maria put her arm around her girlfriend's waist.
Just then Alexi's phone made a ding sound. She looked at it and her face paled.
Alexi quickly pulled out of Maria's grasp and said,"Uh I have to go."
Maria frowned and said,"What? Why?" Alexi just shook her head and said,"B-b-b-because."
Maria said,"Come on Alexi. Don't lie to me. What's wrong?"
Alexi shook her head again and began to walk again. Maria grabbed her wrist and raised her voice,"Alexi! Tell me what's wrong!"
Alexi said,"N-nothing I just have to do something."
"Are you cheating on me?!" Maria exclaimed. Alexi's eyes widened and she frantically shook her head.
Maria glared and said,"Just go." Alexi's eyes filled with tears and she turned on her heel.
Running away from a glaring Maria, Alexi wiped the tears streaming down her face.
She ran to her dorm which she shared with Lafayette, John Laurens, and Hercules Mulligan. They were all out so she didn't have to deal with them and all their worries.
She ran into her room just as the first thunderclap came. She screamed. Alexia shoved herself into her closet and covered her ears. She rocked back and forth.
The thunder, rain, and lightning kept coming. Every time the sky screamed, she screamed.
Alexia had been in the dark closet for several hours when she heard her roommates come in.
They were laughing as a bolt of lightning came. She shrieked and all three boys came running into her room. Lafayette open the closet door and saw her whimpering on the floor.
Herc rushed to her side and pulled her into a sitting position. She continued crying and Laf said,"Mon ami. Ma sœ 's going to be okay." He turned to John and said,"Call Maria please. Tell her it's urgent." John nodded and before leaving hugged Alexi.
Ten minutes later Maria rushed in. She rushed right in as a roll of thunder bombarded the sky. She heard Alexi wail.
Maria ran into Alexi's room only to find her on the floor, head in Laf's lap.
She kneeled down and pulled her into a tight hug. Alexi buried her head into Maria and sobbed. Maria ran her fingers through Alexi's hair while asking,"What's wrong Xixi?"
Alexia only buried herself deeper into Maria's arms. Maria hugged her tighter but turned her head towards Herc, Laf, and John.
Laf whispered,"She's deathly afraid of storms." Herc nodded and added,"PTSD from when she was a kid." John finished,"Every time there is a storm…well. This happens."
The trio looked worriedly at Alexi who was violently shaking in Maria's arms.
John elbowed the other boys and said,"Um we'll give you two some alone time." The other two nodded and they left Alexi's room, closing the door on the way out.
Maria tilted Alexi's chin up towards her face. Alexi's lip trembled and tears streamed down her face like rivers.
"Why didn't you tell me?" Maria asked, feeling bad about their earlier encounter.
Alexi whispered,"It's embarrassing. And stupid. You're so courageous and brave I thought you wouldn't like me anymore I-if you knew."
Maria frowned and said,"Lex I love you so much. I will never leave you and I will never be disappointed in you."
Alexi looked up at her and said,"Y-you love me?" She blushed and said,"I l-love you too Mar-Mar."
Maria giggled and pulled Alexi into another hug.
They spent the whole night together—Maria by Alexi's side. She comforted her and that was enough.

Ok sorry, yes I know I'm annoying but I'd just like to remind everyone to stay safe. I hope that you all stay safe from the Covid-19 virus. Also don't discriminate against people because of the disease. No one asks to get it and it's not their fault if they spread it.
