Zuma sat against the lookout watching his friends play tag. He had been caught first since Chase was “it” and now he was sitting bored waiting on anyone else to get caught. Skye had caught Chase’s attention but as he was chasing her Rocky ran past and caught his attention which let her get away as he began chasing him.
Zuma smiled at the action and leaned his head back and looked towards the sky as a cloud blocked out the sun. “Guys it looks like thewe’s gonna be a stowm!” Zuma yelled as he stood up and walked towards the play zone. All the others looked towards the sky and watched as more and more clouds came into view that started to cast a shadow over the yard.
They all collectively looked towards each other and then after a few shifts of their faces around they all decided that it was time to head inside to find something else to do. Zuma stood in the same spot until Rocky walked over to him and they walked behind the rest with Marshall directly in front of them. Zuma felt a nice warmth start in the center of his body and spread outward with Rocky next to him.
Zuma reached forward just in time to stop Marshall from walking into a ball that would have tripped him and so he joined the other two as they walked towards the entrance of the building. “So what do you guys think we should do?” Marshall asked the other two as they got within motion sensor sight of the door which caused it to slide open. “I think I’m gonna go ahead and wead.” Zuma chimed in without much delay.
“I think I’ll join Zuma and wead a book or two.” Rocky replied after. Marshall smiled at the two and nodded as the chill of the lookout wrapped around them. Zuma let out a soft laugh at the chill and then turned to Rocky. “Would you like to share a blanket since it’s chilly in here?” Rocky thought for a second before nodding as they finally got far enough inside for the doors to slide shut behind them.
Marshall walked over to the couch where Skye, Rubble, and Chase were sitting and watching the news and sat next to Rubble and leaned back to relax. Zuma and Rocky walked over to the bean bags that were next to the bookshelf they had gotten to store books that the people of the town donated to them. Zuma grabbed a book with a dragon on the cover and sat in his orange bean bag chair while Rocky grabbed a story book and sat in his green one.
It was mostly quiet in this corner of the living room since the tv and the speakers pointed towards the couch so all the sound that you could really hear was the soft mutterings of the two and the turning of their pages every once in a while. Zuma looked up as the window behind them got hit with a few raindrops before a loud boom of thunder made Zuma yelp and jump up in the air.
Rocky let out a soft giggle which caused Zuma to turn red and subsequently close the book he was reading and walk over towards the couch. “Awe Zuma come back. I wasn’t trying to hurt your feelings.” Zuma ignored him but instead of walking to the couch he walked towards the stairs that lead to their inside rooms. Rocky got up and closed his book before rushing after Zuma to apologize and once he was passing the couch he heard Chase let out a snicker which earned him a punch to his arm from Skye beside him. “Don’t be rude Chase.” Skye smiled at him before turning back to the tv and Rocky continued on to go to Zuma.
It took him a moment to catch up to Zuma but he was already in his room. A soft knock got Zuma to open the door and let him in. “Hey I wanted to let you know that I’m sorry I laughed earlier. I didn’t mean to upset you.” Zuma shrugged and ushered Rocky in before closing the door and walking over to his bed. “It’s ok Wocky, I let my embawwassment get to me too much. I’m on my computew now trying to find a movie to watch. Would you like to join me?”
Rocky looked at his computer desk and the two chairs that were already in here. “Were you hoping that I’d come up here so we could watch a movie?” Zuma blushed a little before smiling at him and nodding. “I couldn’t help it. I like spending time with you.” Rocky smiled back before sitting in the chair closest to the window and waited patiently for Zuma to pick a movie.
He took a moment to find one and once he did he chose to watch a scary movie but before he could press play Rocky stopped him. “I know what you’re trying to do but I’m not watching a scary movie. If you want to cuddle and stuff just say it.” Zuma let out a sigh as he was caught and then turned to Rocky and nodded. “Wocky would you like to cuddle and stuff with me?”
Rocky simply gave a nod before getting up from his chair and then holding his paw out to Zuma but once Zuma stood up he tackled Rocky to the bed and hugged him tightly before giving him a kiss on the nose. “Gosh Zuma I didn’t know that you were this excited to do this stuff again.” Zuma didn’t respond with words he just kissed him on the lips briefly before nuzzling into his neck. “Wocky I love you!~”
Rocky wrapped his arms around Zuma and gave him a kiss on his head. “I love you too, Zuma.” Rocky’s chest filled with warmth from being this close and saying that they love each other. Zuma didn’t know why but as he was nuzzled into his boyfriend's neck he was slowly starting to fall asleep. “Wocky I think I’m gonna fall asleep.”
Rocky smiled as he moved one of his arms to Zuma’s head and started petting him. “Ok Zuma I’ll be here so don’t worry. Sleep through the storm and when you wake up we can continue.” Before he was finished with his sentence he heard Zuma let out a soft sigh and then a soft snore as well. Rocky looked up at the ceiling and smiled as he was laying there listening to the rain softly tap against the window and the occasional rumbling of thunder.
