The simple crack of thunder rang out across fields as sprinkles of rain began to fall, the sound of feet hitting the damp ground making a slosh.

"Its really coming down out there" Ruggie shakes off, "were probably stuck under here for the next hour" his hand leaves the gazebo quickly bringing it back under as the rain got harder, ears twitching at the sound of sniffling his head turns to look at the white hair male "Kalim you okay?" . Ruggie knew Kalim can get emotional but something felt off, making his way over and he plops down beside him.

Kalim's head was buried in his knees, his arms wrapped around him shaking soft whimpers were heard as a reply, the sudden screech of thunder caused the white hair male to jump in fear, a scream leaving his mouth. Ruggie knew what was wrong right away from that simple reaction.

Kalim was scared of thunderstorms.

He smiles softly an idea came into his mind, he suffles over to kneel behind Kalim brushing his hair with his fingers something Ruggie own meemaw did back when he was a small cub during the rare occasion of a storm in the Savannah his voice a usual playful tone or to other annoying began to sing a song about the stars in his native tongue, Kalim hummed as Ruggie counuited to brush Kalim hair braiding the flowers into it, Ruggie enjoyed the longer hair on Kalim it meant the he could brush and decorate the Arabian boys hair.

"Habibi you do know those flowers were meant for the science experiment not my hair" Kalim let's out a chuckle his mind was now focusing on Ruggie and his voice, "we'll collect more later my liefde, Divius Send sensei can wait" Ruggie placed a soft kiss upon Kalim check "your more important at the moment "

Kalim giggles softly and snuggles up to the hyena more, science can wait his with the persons he loves the most, he almost forgot about the storm until a craxk of thunder caused him to land in Ruggies arms, the flowers that remained in the basket knocked over the winds blew the flowers lifting up into the wind.

To Kalim it was a beautiful sight but right now he'll prefer to hide in his boyfriend's shoulder till the storm passes.
