Only You

Chapter 1- The Storm God

This first chapter is the storm god speaking about the past. You'll understand later exactly who he's speaking to bc... Gotta leave you in suspense or something... But, yeah, just so you aren't confused, remember that he's talking... Well, uh, byeeeeeee :'D :/

"The first time I fell in love... It wasn't with another god. Many of my buddies had tried to persuade me to get into the love game, try to find someone I was compatible with. But I didn't really have much of an urge to. That was, until I met you.

You were but a lowly farmer, with eyes of bright green & medium skin tanned deeper by the summer sun, working the fields. It was dry that year, & you needed a harvest.

You persuaded me to listen to your plea for rain & I brought the storm willingly for you. You offered sacrifices, but it was plenty enough for me to just see you there at my altar & bring forth as many blessings as I was able for you. Your long black hair sweeping into your face as you set the offerings there...

I became fascinated by you. I spent more & more time away from my office in the skies to be by your side, though you could not see me. I wanted to spend all my days in your company...

Soon enough, I realized that the only way to really be with you, was to have you finally see me.

So one evening when you came to bring your daily offering to me, I came down from the sky, avoiding all the pomp & circumstance I had seen other gods do, for fear of scaring you away.

I appeared in a measly billow of smoke, & you looked at me at last, bright green eyes drawn wide with surprise.

'I... Wow... Your holiness!' You bowed low to me then rose back up quickly.

I laughed lowly & you blushed. 'There is no need for that... You have been... Very loyal to me... You needn't... offer any more sacrifices really...'

Your mouth opened wide. 'Really? But, your holiness, I- what can I offer you for bringing such blessings to my fields for so long?'

I smiled shyly, looking down at the ground. 'You needn't call me "your holiness"... So formal you humans are... I wouldn't smite you for referring to me as otherwise, you know that, don't you? I am a benevolent being, especially with one such as you...'

Your eyebrows furrowed. 'What exactly do you mean? Why so informal... with me?'

I could feel my face redden deeply & I turned away. 'It is... alright. I... will continue to bless you during your lifetime... I... only wanted to be... seen by you... at least once...' I exhaled. 'To... be in your company... But if that is too much to ask, I understand that... I merely wanted to see you one last time... But you needn't worry... Your blessings will continue... For as long as you live...'

You tilted your head to the side. 'But... why me? Why do you request so little from me?'

I shook my head nervously, silver hair flying. 'I... have become... fond of you...'

You looked at me suddenly. 'As in... romantically, your grace...?'

I felt my face heat. 'Yes... But I understand if you don't reciprocate...'

You shook your head fervently. 'But... how do you know that? How do either of us know that when I hardly know you?'

I stepped closer to you, eyes hopeful. 'But... would you be willing to take that chance?'

You nodded slowly. 'We never know... until we try.'"

Hope this chapter was ok... I know I'm not very good at writing, but I try :'D. Btw, the rain god doesn't really have a name. The human that he falls in love with gives him names throughout their time together, but he doesn't actually have a name. He is just known as the Rain God. In my world, he is the god of rain/storms, or at least in charge of it. He has lots of subordinates that help with the work, but he's like... The highest ranking one in that department...

Welp, I'll see you guys later, I guess :'D
