Here's the last one I wrote this week... I hope I have time to write more...

Thunders

-You just can’t go home now Theodore... this one is a big storm….
-You should call your mother and tell her you’re going to spend this night here… tomorrow you can go to school with Billy.
-Thanks Mr. and Mrs. Kaplan… sorry to disturb….
-Well… Teddy’s going to sleep here… so… I’ll go and clean the bedroom… it’s a complete mess!

Billy went to his bedroom while Teddy helped Mrs. Kaplan in the Kitchen after calling home. When everything had already been cleaned he went to his boyfriend’s room.

-May I come in?
-Sure you can! You’ll sleep here tonight… your bed is ready…
-Do you really want me to sleep in this cold floor?
-Of course not… it’s just… to pretend…
A lightning in the dark. Billy’s heart was beating so fast, he didn’t even notice he was holding on Teddy’s hand.

-Ah… I’m sorry…

Billy sat in his bed, teddy on the floor. The door opened to show them Billy’s father with a flashlight in his hands.

-We’ve no light kids… that thunder must have done some damage… I brought you this flashlight because… you know teddy… our Billy is afraid of thunders…
-DAD! I’m not afraid of thunders!
-Oh… is that so Billy…?
-Not you too Teddy… stop it please!
-Kids! Time to go to bed… you’ve got to go to school tomorrow… I’ll give you a ride…
-Ok… good night dad…
-Night Mr. Kaplan… and Thanks!

The door closed. Billy’s eyes flashed locking it. He whispered:

-I’m a mutant… I’m not Storm from X-men, but… I can also use thunders… it makes no sense to be afraid of them…
-Ok... I got it… now…tell me that I’m your favorite shape-shifter… the one that lits you up…
-You know you are … and …
-What?
-Maybe… I get just… just a little scared when it comes to natural thunders and storms like this one…
-I’ll sleep with you… if you’re afraid you can just hold on to me…
-Thank you Teddy…
-Tsc… that’s what boyfriends are for…

A closer thunder… the noise… Billy almost jumped to Teddy.

-Sh… just stay here like this… let’s sit in silence and watch the rain… it’s so… beautiful…

And then they kissed.

The end.
