96. In The Storm
"Julia! Are you okay?"
I turned my head around from where it was perched against the windowsill, only to discover Kyle standing by the staircase, dripping wet.
I blinked.
"Kyle," I sighed. "What are you doing here?"
"I thought you'd be lonely so I came to visit you."
"During the middle of a storm? You know that's dangerous you idiot!"
"Yeah, I know" he laughed, "So, can I stay over or not?"
I rolled my eyes at him and smiled.
"Sure. You know where to go."
He grinned at me before heading into the other room to change (he brought some dry clothes w/ him).
In truth, he did this every time a storm happened. He would appear at my door as if nothing was wrong, and we would talk for hours after he dried himself off.
I don't know why he came here whenever there was a storm. Maybe, for some strange reason, he felt like he had to look over me during a storm. Or maybe it was because he felt sorry for me since I didn't have any parents to look over me. Or because he thought that I felt scared by the storm since I was just by myself, and so I needed someone to comfort me.
Either way, I was grateful towards him because I didn't feel so lonely anymore when he was with me.
A/N: Yeah…so that's drabble #2. Hope you liked it!
