SC ~ III ~ Best Weather for Dancing 🕺🌧

"Please?"

"No, sweetheart."

"Pleaaaseeee?"

"You're only gonna get the same answer, so might as well quit asking."

"I won't ask next time, please?"

"No, Y/n."

"Pretty please?"

"Never say that again, for my sanity-"

"Then come dance in the rain with me!"

"..Fine, but only because I want you to quit asking.. and because I love you."

"Yes! Thank you!"

Y/n grabbed Henry's face and gave him a kiss; before dragging him out of his chair and outside. He didn't hesitate to immediately go into the rain, but Henry stood by the doors for a second. He shook his head and sighed, taking off his lab coat and following Y/n. Henry was caught off guard a bit when Y/n grabbed his hands and pulled him pretty much against his body.

"See? It's not so bad!" Y/n chuckled, the goofy grin from when he first thought of this still plastered on his face.

"Well you're used to working outside in conditions like this." Henry tried his best to not show that he was actually enjoying this.

"Then I guess you gotta come outside with me more then."

"I'll think about it."

The rain only got heavier the longer they were outside, but Y/n wouldn't let Henry out of his grasp, pretty much forcing him to dance with him. During all this, they both almost fell quite a few times, immediately laughing about it afterwards. Eventually though, Henry tripped; dragging Y/n with him to the ground.

"Okay, I think that's enough for today." Henry chuckled, just waiting for Y/n to control how hard he was laughing.

"Maybe you're right." Y/n helped Henry stand up, both of them immediately heading back inside the lab, trying not to make too much of a mess from how drenched they were.

Y/n grabbed his bag and some stuff Henry asked him to put in there, and the two hurriedly headed back to the living quarters, tripping a lot more when they were running on the trail, mud stains displayed all the way up to their knees, and quite a few on Y/n's shirt and arms. They both sighed loudly once Y/n unlocked the door and they were inside, instantly wanting to get out of their soaked and stained clothes.

"As fun as that was, I'm never doing that again." Henry chuckled, being pretty muffled since he had his head completely wrapped in a towel for some reason (like, this man's head literally turned into a towel, not like how some people wrap a towel in their hair after a shower or sumn-).

"I'll convince you again sometime." Y/n mumbled, throwing a pair of sweatpants at Henry.

The two got somewhat dried off and changed into something comfortable, and not drenched. Y/n pulled his sketchbook and Henry's things out of his bag and they both sat on the bed.

"Do you still have to go train the raptors with Owen tomorrow?" Henry asked, setting his stuff aside.

"No, he's got Barry helping him so I'll probably be in the nursery before I come to the lab; why?" Y/n shrugged.

"Just curious."

"Can you turn that damned thing off..?" Henry mumbled, burying his head into Y/n's chest.

"Well when you do that, I can hardly move." Y/n groaned slightly as he stretched to reach his alarm clock "There, happy?"

"Mhm, very.."

"I don't know if dancing in the rain was the best choice now.. I'm pretty sure I got both of us sick because of it. Sorry love.."

"It's alright.. gives me an excuse not to do work for a bit anyways.."

Y/n shook his head, and before completely getting comfortable again, he grabbed his phone from next to the alarm clock and messaged Claire to let her know they wouldn't be coming in for a day or two.

'Hey, me and Henry arent feeling the best, we probably wont be coming in for a couple days.' :Y/n

Claire (Goofy Red-Head): 'All good, hope you guys feel better :)'

'Thanks =)' :Y/n

Y/n reached back again and set his phone back down, sighing when he finally got comfortable again. He wrapped his arms around Henry again and squeezed him pretty tightly.

"Now what's the plan for today?" Y/n asked, closing his eyes.

"Sleeping." Henry mumbled, seeming barely awake.

"Got it, I'll make some soup later, how's that sound?"

"Mmm.."

Y/n chuckled slightly before giving into the almost overwhelming tiredness in his body.

Over the next few hours while the two were sleeping, or trying to sleep, they were almost constantly being woken up by something the other did. One of these things being when Y/n had been getting too hot so he ended up kicking the blanket off the bed, while Henry was literally 'freezing' his ass off and tried to get some sort of warmth without having to fully wake up and get the blanket. Another being when Henry kept trying to move closer to Y/n, despite being as close as he pretty much could've been, and he ended up pushing Y/n off the bed from this.

When they had both 'officially' woke up, they didn't really even get out of bed for another hour. While Y/n was making soup for the two, he had made Henry sit down and begin watching the Tremors films (at the time there was only 4-) since they really had nothing better to do. However, Henry only manged to get halfway through the second movie before falling asleep, causing Y/n to have to try and drag him back to the bed. It took Y/n some time to fall asleep this time, since his stomach was cramping. But, he was eventually able to fall asleep and proceeded to get kicked out of the bed again by Henry.
