Rain (Part Two)

It's already ten in the evening but I still can't put my self into sleep. The rain is still pouring heavily outside when I suddenly heard someone shouting my name.

I looked down at the window only to see Drake standing outside shaking and looking like a kid who lost his mom. I immediately went downstairs and opened the door for him.

"What are you thinking? You could catch a cold because of what you're doing." I scolded him.

"You also did the same." That's a simple sentence but it still got me.

"Why are you even here? And how did you know where I live?" I tried to change the topic and it actually worked.

"I know you more than you think I do." He said in a husky voice. Doesn't he have a clue that he is sounding like a creepy stalker?

"Whatever McFlint! If you're trying to be Christian Grey then it's not working. Besides, I don't like guys who are trying to be someone they're not." I rolled my eyes.

"I'm not trying to be anyone but the man you want." I snorted when he said that.

"For a moment I believed you but you should take acting lessons to be more convincing." I sounded like I'm insulting him. I'm not actually that kind of a person but I am just too furious to see him.

"You know what? You are the one who have done wrong to me and you should be the one apologizing but you have managed to turn the tables. You have managed to amuse me Ms. Maxxon." I know he is trying to cool things off and I think I should just be riding him coz' after all I don't just need him to get into Nicky's group but I have this feeling of completeness every time I'm with him.

"I could have said sorry and even explain my side if you didn't transformed into a crazy man who have just got off the mental hospital. And you are even making me guilty." I reasoned out.

"That's how it goes in movies, but as I've said you have managed to turn the tables." He shrugged as if nothing bad happened between us earlier.

"Why? What kind of movies do you watch? I thought you're more of a Transformer addict. Why didn't you tell me that you like watching Romance movies eh." I started teasing him and unlike any other guy he just laughed with me instead of getting mad and say that those movies are for gays.

"What's bad with watching Romance? It's actually comfortable watching The Fault in Our Stars or even Fifty Shades of Grey." My jaw hang open with what he said.

"You are watching Fifty Shades? Ew! That's so ugh..." I said in disgust.

"Hey! It's not pure sex scenes. It has actually a good story if you are just mature enough." I cocked an eyebrow at him.

"So are you saying that I'm immature?" I pretended to be mad.

"I'm not saying that you're immature. What I'm trying to say is that people with open-minds are the ones who could truly appreciate Fifty Shades." He is saying it like their is a difference.

"You're gay." Those words have managed to escape my mouth though I don't really suspect him to be gay. I could actually imagine him growing up looking like an Adonis.

"It's actually better to be gay than to be a guy who is pretending to be a man by proving his manliness by how many times he got laid and criticize lesbians and bisexuals." You never fail to amuse me Drake.

"So are you gay?" At some point there I was nervous that he would say yes. There are actually many handsome gays in this generation.

"If by gay you mean happy, lively, cheerful and merry then sometimes, yes I'm gay. But if your description of gay is a guy who is attracted to a person with his same sex then I'm not, because the last time I checked you and I are with different sex." Okay? What did he said? He is so fast and he speaks like Einstein for that moment.

"What?" I asked in confusion.

"Nothing." I rolled my eyes with what he said. All I understand is he is not gay if I mean a boy who is attracted to another boy.

"Why are you here by the way?" Once again I have managed to change the topic.

"You have forgot about this." I saw that he is holding the iPhone he gave to me earlier. "When I saw this I immediately called you and after a moment I felt like I am the stupidest person ever and I even wondered what was ringing and came to realization that you won't be able to answer my call because your phone is with me." He laughed at his self.

"Why did you even bother soaking yourself in the rain to return that to me? That will be no use to me now." No matter how I tried to speak like a strong woman it still shows that I'm hurt and weak.

"I just don't get it why you want to be with them." He said.

"It's where I wanna be." I answered him quickly.

"Are you gonna be happy if you're with them?" I paused for a moment not being able to find the right answer.

"I have to take the risk." I shook my head.

Their was a strange silence before he decided to say a single word.

"Here." He handed me the phone.

"I'm just gonna take that if you will also come. If you really don't wanna join that group then just take your phone with you and leave." I was hoping that he will stay but he didn't.

He stepped out of the rain. I watched him as he was walking while the drops of water was owning his body. I want to stop him but I think it's still no use.

I just wish he won't be a somebody that I used to know.
