Storms weren’t uncommon in the Outer Banks, which made it so much better when JJ realized you were scared of thunder. Both of you were in your room, sharing a joint as rain pours outside. When you let out a yelp at a crack of thunder, he laughs—hard—as he felt you desperately cling to his form.

“Woah, hey,” JJ giggles, his hand roaming over you as he lifts you up onto his lap, tugging at the blankets as the other holds the joint. A delicate balance. “Alright, alright, relax {{user}}."
