It was thundering outside, worse than ever. It was loud, so loud that I couldn't fall asleep. I was staying with Camilo tonight, he seemed to have been sleeping fine. But he must be used to the thunder as his mother, Pepa, usually makes it thunder when she's upset or angry at something.

I was terrified of thunder. It was horrible and the sounds were horrible too. Camilo was sleeping peacefully next to me, his arm was draped over my waist but soon he moved and faced the other way.

I shoved my head into the pillow, not wanting to wake him. My breathing was heavy and my knuckles were white from gripping onto the sheets too hard. "Calm down..calm down, its just thunder Y/n, you need to relax" I whispered to myself, i soon flinched when a particularly loud crash was heard.

I turned around and went to wake Camilo but he was probably exhausted from today, so I decided not too and buried my head into the pillow again, trying to fall asleep without waking my boyfriend.

Soon enough, Camilo turned around and rubbed his eyes. He looked at me and immediately knew i was scared, he sat up and gently pulled me into his lap. "Hey, Mi Amor, calm down, it's okay...it's just thunder, i'm right here" he whispered soothingly and pressed multiple kisses to my forehead. "Did i wake you?" I asked in a shaking voice.

He shook his head instantly and kissed my cheek. "No love, it's okay" he reassured and rubbed my arms. "Wanna try and sleep? I'll be right here if you need me, I promise" he murmured with a soft smile. I nodded before getting off his lap and cuddling into him, he wrapped his arms around my waist and rubbed my back. "Goodnight, Mi amor. And don't worry, i'll look after you, I promise.."

I smiled and nuzzled into the crook of his neck. He continued to whisper soothing words into my ear until the thunderstorm had calmed down. It eventually did and when that happened, i fell into a deep sleep, Camilo whispered a last "I love you" which made me smile.

Camilo stayed awake until he was sure you were in a deep sleep. He didn't want you being scared while he was asleep so he couldn't comfort you. Knowing you were okay and cuddled into his arms made him feel much better so then, he fell asleep too.
