Thunder and lightning

I love watching lightning, really. It always looks so cool. But god, how I hate thunder. So there's a thunderstorm right now and I'm freaking out. I HATE thunder, really. I remember when there was a thunderstorm for FOUR WHOLE HOURS in the town next to mine. My grandparents live there, I was so scared.
Damn, excuse my language, but it sounds like a bomb exploded near my street. I hate this. I wish there was just someone who could hold me tight now. :( I really need those arms around me. But now, who's there to hug me? No one. My mom? I don't want to hug her. My dad? He wouldn't hug me, he'd call me childish, as usual. My brother? Well, no way. There's no one else in the house. Yeah, a cat and two guinea pigs. I feel sorry for them, this is even worse for my guinea pigs than for me. They're both only 2 years old, almost 3.
And now it starts to rain. For me, it feels like the thunderstorm just came into my town. Like it was in the town next to mine all the time, until it started raining. Is that actually a fact? I wouldn't know. I'm always so scared that the lightning hits my house and that it'll burn then. I don't want my family to die, just not yet. They deserve a long life, they do. I don't.
My parents always told me that it wouldn't hit our house. And even if it would hit our house, it wouldn't start burning, nothing bad would happen. I never thought that way. 
I don't even know why I'm writing this here. It feels like I should try to keep my guinea pigs calm, or whatever. If I just had a little puppy to hug now. Yeah, I love dogs. I'm just not allowed to have one. At least not as long as we have a cat, and as long as my brother doesn't want a dog. My brother likes cats more, he only likes dogs because you can play with them. That means I can't have a dog until my brother leaves this house, and I don't think we'll even get a dog after that.

Wish me good luck in this thunderstorm?
I'll just keep myself calm with Evanescence, teehee. ;3
