The thunder from up above pummels the clouds as the noise shakes the very earth beneath it. The sound growing in a matter of seconds and dies out just as fast. The redhead moves quickly, kicking shoes off and shucking off his greatcoat.
Kisses grow fervent as he whispers your name religiously. Your back hits the mattress, air forced out of your lungs as the thunder crashes through the clouds and lands on your bones.

The storm continues just as it was meant to be, with the blinding light striking the earth haphazardly, chased by the unrelenting power of it's lover, thunder.
