The thunderstorm (was remade)

                                    

                                          
I usually would hide under the covers in my house, but no. I had to go to GingerBrave's house. 
I'm so embarrassed! It's going to storm a lot tonight, and I don't want to be alone. The only cookie I feel comfortable with is GingerBrave, the worst part is...I-I-I like him! 
I ran to get to his house, without an umbrella (since I forgot).
I was so soaking wet, though, I didn't want to take my sweater off. Maybe he'll have the fire crackling to warm me up. 
As I finally got to his house, the door opened. 
"Strawberry?" 
"H-Hi...hold on." I panted out, gasping for breath. Since the kingdom was now big, it's hard to find places. I wouldn't be surprised if Sparkling's bar moved again.
"What are you doing here? Especially in these...worst conditions." Ginger looked up at the sky. It was night, and the clouds were a dark gray, every now and then you could see thunder. 
"Could you just...let me in?"
"I-I-It's freezing out there!" I was on a chair next to Ginger's fireplace.
"I know that but....why did you come here?" GingerBrave asked. 
"Well um..." I trailed off, what do I tell him? That I'm justa big baby who's scared of thunder? Wanting to be with him for his support? Do I tell him a lie? Or do I say nothing? 
"Well lying isn't gonna get you anywhere, Strawberry..." I thought. 
"I'm just afraid of t-thunder..." I admitted. "And since I'm alone at my house, living with no one, I decided your support would be the best option." 
GingerBrave laughed. 
"W-What? What's so funny?!" 
"Oh Strawb, everyone is at least afraid of something!" Ginger said. "Fears aren't a bad thing to confess, some fears have good reason." 
"I guess...your right." 
"Anyway, would you like some hot coco?" Ginger asked.
After he said that I felt that I hadn't drank anything yet. "Yes please."
———
"Could I sit by you?" Ginger asked as he came with two hot cups of coco. "I was supposed to buy another chair but I-" 
"Forgot." I finished for him. 
"Yes." He laughed awkwardly. "So I could set up a mattress on the floor if you would like." 
I hated sleeping on the floor. 
But GingerBrave didn't know that so it's not his fault. But where else was I going to sleep? The couch makes my back hurt sometimes...
The only choice was...
To sleep with him. 
But that would make us both uncomfortable! W-Wouldn't it?...
"Strawb?" 
"Oh! Um....yes..." I took a sip of my hot coco. Nice and warm...just how it should be. "I wouldn't like if I were on the floor...since it's winter it's cold..."
Ginger smiled warmly, which made me all flustered. "It's okay! I understand. How about the couch?" 
"The couch...uh...makes my back hurt sometimes..." 
"Right! I should've known..." I giggled a little. 
"So how about in my bed? I could sleep with you?" 
I suddenly came to my "very" shy font. 
"Oh I meant if-I mean-not like that-goshdarnit..." Ginger mumbled the last part.
We sat in silence for a bit, it was from a nice peaceful talk to something awkward. 
"I guess....I could...sleep with you." 
———
In just a few moments me and Ginger took our separate sides of his bed, me on the right, him on left. 
"Hey Strawb?" Ginger said my nickname. 
"Yeah?" 
"Sleep tight!" 
"Goodnight as well Ginger..." 
I closed my eyes, thinking before I really dreamt. What if GingerBrave has the same feelings for me as I do for him? What if he doesn't?...Who will I be with...?
"Hey Ginger?" I whispered. But I could hear him mumble and turn to face my back. I got a little panicked there...was he sleeping. 
I turned around to face him. 
Damn he was asleep alright! I never knew he slept that fast. I could never sleep that fast...
BOOM
"GAH!" 
I quickly came to hug the first thing near me...of course it was Ginger. 
"Huh? Who? Wha...?" Ginger woke up, startled. Then he glanced at me, who was nearly gripping onto him like a tiger and their prey.
"You...good?" Ginger asked.
"T-T-T-Thunder....scared...." I mumbled. 
"Ohh...here come closer," He snuggled me closer. I felt more warmer...inside. "I don't mind..." 
I blushed, he really doesn't mind? I thought he would be either grossed out, or maybe leave me out in the rain...
In a few moments, he did sleep again. So did I, I dreamt how I should come here every thundery night, so it can turn out just like this....
Just...like...this...
