Astraphobia = Fear of thunder

It was late at night, around 00:15am, but Phil and Wilbur were the only ones in the house who were still awake. They weren't doing much, Phil was watching something on Netflix and Wilbur was on his phone. The news had said there was meant to be a massive storm coming but both of them had missed that part.

"I'm going to get a drink, want one?" Phil said as he got up, "Nah I'm good, thanks." Wil replied still looking at his phone. Phil went to the kitchen to get a drink, about a minute after he left a loud sound of thunder was heard. Wilbur flinched and looked up from his phone, his body was tensed up. 'What the fuck was that?' he asked himself, he decided to ignore it and continued scrolling through Twitter. 

It didn't take long for the next clap of thunder to happen, this time Wil closed his phone and looked around. Another clap of thunder caused him to yelp, he brought his legs up to his chest and tried to stay calm. 

Thunder continued to sound as Wil tried his best to get his breathing under control, a flash of lightning caused him to scream. Not many people knew about Wilbur's astraphobia, but those who did knew just how bad it was for him. Thunder was pretty much a torcher device to Wil, that's why he normally tried to sleep through it.

By the time Phil came back into the living room, Wilbur had gone into a bad panic attack. He quickly put his drink down before going over to Wil, "Wilbur, mate it's alright." he said softly, Wilbur's breathing had become quick gasps. "Wil can I touch you?" he asked, he got a nod in response. Philza gently put an arm around Wil and pulled him against his chest, he started rubbing circles on his back.

A sudden and loud clap of thunder spooked Wilbur causing him to scream, he buried his head in Phil's shirt. Phil could feel his shirt getting wet but that wasn't on his list of concerns, he pulled Wilbur into a tighter hug and continued to comfort him. Eventually his breathing became better and he'd stopped shaking as much, looking down at the brown haired boy, Phil could tell he'd passed out. 

Shifting a little, Phil got him and Wilbur into a comfortable position before he continued to watch the TV. He'd started to brush his hand through Wil's hair as the boy slept, his body still continued to shake slightly. 

The next day when Tommy and Techno came downstairs, they saw Phil and Wilbur asleep on the couch. Both of them had a feeling that they knew what happened that night.
