Come on! Come on! open the door!
I was soaked to the bone, shivering, scared, and I didn't want to be alone. I knocked as hard as I could. I saw a light flick on under the door.
"alright alright! I'm coming." Doof exclaimed. he opened the door just as the thunder rolled loudly and I latched on to his leg in fright. "Perry the Platypus, why are you hugging my leg? hey what happened to your leg?" Doof ask tiredly. the thunder roared and the ligthning flashed brightly before I could answer and I took off in side, without permission. I heard him close the door and follow after me. "Perry the Platypus? your all wet, where'd you go?" Doof ask. I heared him walk into the living room where he huffed. "your soaking my couch and the floor! what's wrong with you?" Doof demaned. the lightning flashed and I whimpered pathetically. "Perry the Platypus?" Doof ask.
"yes?" I ask softly. I cringed when he started laughing.
"Perry the Platypus, are you afraid of storms?" Doof laughed. I whimpered and curled into a ball under the couch.
I knew I should have stayed home. I knew I should have just hid under Phineas' bed and waited.
I thought. I heard Doof leave the room and he came back a moment later.
"Perry the Platypus, come on out its okay." Doof said softly. I shook my head.
"you just want to laugh in my face." I whimpered.
"come on it's just some thunder." Doof said. it thundered loudly and I yelped. "oh for pete sakes Perry the Platypus! come here!" Doof exclaimed. I prepared to be roughly pulled out from under the couch, but I was surprised when he gently pulled me out. I dripped on his carpet a second and he wrapped a towel around me. realizing how cold I was, I curled up into a ball and looked up at him. I whimpered when the lights flickered and the thunder caused the building to shake. Doof stood me on his table and dried me off, much like Phineas and Ferb do after my bath. he removed the towel and laughed.
here it comes..
"Perry the PLatypus, you look like a puffed up marshmellow. stay here I'll get you a bandage." Doof said. I noticed him pause as he started to walk away but then he shook his head and went on. he came back and gently banaged my hurt leg before plopping on the couch. he picked me up and put me on his chest. I gave him a curious look when he cuddled me while flipping through channels.
"Dr. D?" I ask.
"well I'm not going to throw you out. i'm evil not heartless." Doof said. I smiled but the thunder roared louder and I jumped clinging to his shirt I whimpered. He ran his hand down my back and it comforted me lightly. "have you always been afraid of thunder and lightning?" Doof ask. I nodded.
"ever since I was a pup." I mumbled.
"i'm sorry I laughed at you." Doof said. I looked at him.
"sure you are." I said not believing.
"no really I am. I shouldn't have laughed at you and I'm sorry." Doof said. when the thunder made the building shake again I yelpped and curled up in a ball on Doof's chest. "I don't want to pry, but why are you so scared of thunder storms?" Doof ask. I pulled out and notepad and pen it was so shaky I myself could barley read it, but I'm a secret agent it's not like I write with my hands for a living.
Childhood incident.
"oh. must have been bad." Doof said. I ovoided eye contact. "wanna talk about it? they say talking helps." Doof said. I shook his head no quickly and dug my face into doof's shirt with a whimper. "alright sorry." Doof said. "do you want some hot chocolate?" Doof ask. I looked questioningly at him. he sat up and I tumbled off his chest landing on my face. I got off my face and rubbed it with a wince. "oh, sorry." Doof said. I gave him a nervous smile. Doof reached a hand out and I hesitated untill the lightning flashed and I quickly grabed Doofs hand. Doof smiled and picked me up. he put me on his shoulder and I quickly found my balance.
"huh?" I ask.
"I figured you wouldn't want to stay on the couch and I can't exactly make hot chocolate with only one hand." Doof said. he suddenly leand forward and I almost slipped off his shoulder but I caught myself. "you can sit if you want. I won't hurt you." Doof said. I shrugged and sat down, I folded my arms and rested my head on them on his head. I made a questioning noise at Doof. "oh I make is differently. I warm the milk up first." Doof replied. I nodded my head and continued to watch. I wasa actually interested untill the lightning flashed and the building shook with thunder.
"D-Doof?" I whimpered.
"hold on Perry the Platypus, they're almost done." Doof said patting my non-injured leg. the second cup had just finished when the power went out. I accidently pulled his hair and he grunted. "well, I guess we aren't watching movies." Doof said. he got to the living room sat the cups down, but before I could get down the ground shook and I fell off his shoulders and with a thump face first on the floor. Doof knelt quickly to pick me up. "Perry the Platypus are you ok? I didn't mean for you to fall." Doof said. I nodded.
"i've had worse." I replied.
"wait right here, I'll be right back." Doof said. he walked away and I watched him.
"I'll wait here." I replied. I climbed upon to the couch and hid under the blanket. I heard him come back and make a confused noise.
"Perry?" Doof ask. I wiggled around trying to find a way out of the blanket and managed to poke my head out. Doof smiled and held up the object in his hand. "I found a candle." Doof said. I nodded. "so what happened to your leg?" Doof ask sitting down. he sat the candel down on the coffee table and lit it, I got up and tried to get up without hurting my leg. after a few moments Doof helpped me up and I gave him a greatful look. I wrote once more, though not as shakly, and handed the note to him.
I slid and got cut on a fence on the way over.
"Perry the PLatypus your need to learn to spell I think... are you ok?" Doof ask. I nodded with a small smile. it thundered loudly and lightning flashed brightly and I dove for cover. I was shaking so bad I thought the room was shaking. Doof pickde me up and cuddled me to his chest. he rolled over so his back was to the window's. "we should sleep Perry the Platypus." Doof said. I gave a purr and cuddled up to him. maybe I being afraid of storms is ok.
