Another gift art/RP scene for my dear :icongerardmanslave: :D :heart:

A small smile pulled at her lips as she crawled from under their shelter, and held a hand out towards him. “I’ll show you one of my favorite things to do.” Her voice was gentle and confident, but her cheeks dusted pink. Thunder rumbled in the clouds, as the rain held its steady downpour.

Nico watched in horror as she submerged herself in the downpour, "Hey, you'll catch a cold out there!" He reached out and took her hand with a firm grasp, finding himself facing her in the deluge. "It's dangerous out here! You could get hit by lightning!" he yelled through the pouring rain, his voice the opposite of confident. However, his grip remained firm, trying to persuade her to return to the shelter. "Let's get back under th--!!" A gasp interrupted his plead, following a clap of thunder that sent the boy's heart running.

Ame released his hand and wrapped her arms around his form, pulling them together. Her cheeks held strong to their blush, but her movements were certain. She remained quiet for the duration of the thunder, just holding him until it quieted momentarily. Then she released him, but held his hands and leaned her forehead against his, her eyes closed. She was usually all alone during these storms, enjoying the sounds flooding her eardrums, but she couldn’t deny that having someone else was kinda nice.

His heart continued to race from the storm, and went a few extra laps when the strange girl wrapped her arms around him. Uncertain and confused as to what she was doing, but unsure of what else he should do, he reciprocated the hug awkwardly only a moment before she shifted and took his hands. Every time a clash of thunder sounded, his grip tightened. When their foreheads were together, he examined her face up close. Surprised at how full of peace it was in such a frightening situation, he couldn't help but admire her for bravery. Throughout this whole experience, his cheeks burnt and his heart pounded, but he never quite understood what she was trying to show him, "Ame..."

“Isn’t it amazing? There’s so much power in the sky, so much strength in these storms. It’s overwhelming.” Her eyes fluttered open to meet his, her own blush burning her face. “I like to think that if I can stand in these storms, that maybe there’s that same strength in me.” A small smile pulled at her lips, her eyes searching his. Pounding with the beating rain, her heart swelled with happiness.
