"Jac?... Jac please come out." Jonny pleaded softly, he tried opening the door once more but Jac was firmly leant against looked behind him to see a sympathetic Mo and Elliot walk into the kitchen to give them some space.
"It's only me, please, if you won't come out at least let me come in."
Suddenly, the lights in the hotel went out, everything went pitch black, including the bathroom. Jonny heard Jac whimper slightly. He walked over to his bed to get his torch and realised that Jac's torch was also on the bed.
"Come on, you can come out and we can go to bed and I won't leave you. I promise." A few minutes of silence passed before Jonny was feeling desperate. "Please Jac." He said, Jonny's voice wobbled a little as his eyes were tearing a little. He hated seeing her like this.
Finally, Jac spoke up, "I don't- I can't go to bed. I can't sleep when the weather's like this."
"Okay then, have you got a pair of headphones?" Jonny asked, he knew this was going to sound strange but he wanted her to trust him,
"Yes, why?"
"My laptop has got two headphone sockets, we can watch a movie together under the duvet and the headphones will block out the thunder." Jonny explained, he also knew that being under the cover would calm her, and she wouldn't be able to see the lightening.
"Come on Jac." Jonny pleaded. Jac stood up and opened the door, as she did so another flash of lightening came through the window, followed by an extremely loud rumble of thunder. She jumped quickly and hugged Jonny again.
"It's okay." Slowly, Jonny guided Jac to the bed using his torch. Knowing they would get cold in the night, he grabbed three thick blankets off of the top of his wardrobe. He told Jac to get into bed normally with her head out of the cover. She did so. He spread out one of the double blankets and tucked the end of it behind the tall headboard of the bed, then he got into bed himself with his laptop and got Jac's headphones from her wardrobe. He placed the laptop evenly on his and Jac's lap and placed his left arm around her shoulders.
He pulled the blanket over the two of them so that is sloped from the top of the head board to just after the laptop, he plugged both headphones in and gave her her ones. "Right, what do you want to watch?" Jonny asked.
"What have you got?"
"Everything, I've got Netflix."
"Right, um how about Ted?"
"Miss Naylor, I didn't think you'd be into such a rude and inappropriate film!" He joked. Mo and Elliot were both sitting in their beds with their torches. Elliot was reading a book and Mo was reading a kindle.
"Jac?" Mo asked.
"Yes." She replied bluntly.
"Have you seen Ted before?"
"Yeah." She said confidently.
Mo didn't believe her so she asked, "what's your favourite bit then?"
"The bit where they sing the song about thunder." Jac replied from underneath the covers.
"That's my favourite bit too. Well that and the bit where Ted draws Garfield on a women's tits..."
"Go on then you two sing it." Mo said. Elliot had no idea what they were talking about but quite wanted to hear Jac and Jonny sing together so they both waited for them.
"Jac, will you be my thunder buddy?" Jonny asked and Jac smiled. Before they knew it, they were singing :
When you hear the sound of thunder don't you get too scared.
Just grab your thunder buddy and say these magic words:
Fuck you thunder, you can suck my dick!
You can't get me thunder 'cause you're just god's farts.
Mo sat there giggling at Elliot's reaction. He was outraged at such a song. When they sung 'grab your thunder buddy' Jonny tightened his grip around Jac.
"Right, shall we watch the movie now?" Jac asked and Jonny nodded.
Thanks for reading! I love that song in Ted it's sooo funny! Anyway, please review :)
