thunderstorm
rain pattered against the windows and crashes thunder roared from the clouds. ruthless winds shook the house. lightning illuminated the sullen sky. it'd been doing this for the last hour, and it didn't appear to be letting up anytime soon.not that the couple minded, though. they were perfectly content sitting on the couch together, huddled under a mound of blankets and tangled within eachothers arms with a movie playing at low volume on their TV.
richard sighed, the smallest smile tugging gently at the corners of his mouth. this was everything he wanted. the scot looked lovingly at the younger man laying with his head against his chest.
he was so beautiful.
it was nothing new to richard, of course, how handsome his boyfriend was. yet somehow, it managed to take his breath away every time he looked at taron.
his skin was pale and slightly textured, and his long eyelashes slightly brushed the tops of the ruddy apples of his cheeks. the corners of his thin and slightly chapped lips curled into a slight smile.
"you know i love you, right?" richard cooed, receiving a quiet hum of affirmation in response.
their moment of affection was interrupted by a loud crack of thunder as the sky lit up and then the whole room went black.
"damn, the power's cut." the scotsman grumbled beneath his breath.
"better light a few candles i guess." he prepared to stand up to go get the candles, but his boyfriend groaned in protest, tightening his grip on richard's arm.
"stay. let's just sleep." taron insisted.
"that works for me."
the storm continued to rage outside while the lovers fell asleep to the sound of rain and thunder in the sky.
