Harry Potter Oneshots

Petrichor (R.L)

I loved the rain and the scent of rain, petrichor. It smells refreshing as I strolled down the winding wet cobblestone path, as some light rain poured down on me and smiled, its peaceful and calming. I finally arrived and looked at you...

"Don't go there! It's raining, you'll get wet!" I warned and pulled her just before she went to the pouring rain. We were now on the front door of the courtyard, seeking some shelter. She stopped at her place and looked at me.

"I love the rain!" She spoke up, and turned, smiling happily as she watched the rain poured down and I watched her.

"You do?" I questioned the happy girl near me.

"Yes! It's calm and peaceful, it also sprouts new life and keeps the old ones alive" She replied while smiling softly as she extended her hands and touched the falling water droplets. I smiled softly watching her giddy smile because of the rain pouring on her hand.

I continued to ask, "Do you like them a lot?"

"Well, yes of course. I do enjoy it and love it for a lot of reasons. I do love something else as much as rain"

"What is it then?"

She then spoke slowly, "Hmm, well...You would know soon enough!" She put out her tongue hurriedly and went nearer towards the rain, her hand further getting wet under the pouring rain.

I shook my head at her antics despite my growing smile, "Well, I suppose I have to wait then. But you're going to get wet if you went even closer to the pouring water"

She shook her head smiling, "Well, maybe that's what I intend to do"

I looked at her confused, "What do you mean-" I was cut as she ran to the pouring rain.

"HEY, what are you doing!?" I shouted in exasperation as she was standing on the courtyard, drenched by the pouring rain.

She then turned towards me, smiling happily, "Well, I'm enjoying the rain! It's fresh!" As she laughed.

"B-but you're drenched! You're going to get sick if you stayed under the pouring rain longer!" I said worriedly while she smiled at me in return.

"Come on, it's just rain!" She said smiling happily as she walked and jumped around. Slowly but surely, I eventually joined her after I put my bag with hers on the ground.

I ran towards her and heard her laughing as my clothes, uniform and robe got wet alongside hers, which was drenched.

"Hahaha, doesn't it feel good?" She asked while looking at me and I nodded.

"It surprisingly does" I replied amazed at the feeling of rain.

"I told you so!" I hummed in response.

We walked and jumped, basically playing in the rain together, our clothes drenched but we couldn't feel it. As we danced, played and laughed. We were focused on us and the rain, it felt as if we were the only one, we were in our own world.

We finally stood, just enjoying the sensation of water droplets hitting us, softly.

"The sensation of the water droplets hitting us softly feels good huh?" She spoke up, breaking the silence and I hummed, "It does, it feels amazing" I replied amazed and silence ensued.

"Do you hear the sound of the water droplets hitting the ground? The calming steady beat?" She then asked as I tried to listen.

I heard the steady beat of the water droplets hitting the ground, which was amazing.

"I do..." I trailed off.

"I enjoy the steady beats! It's calming and peaceful isn't it?" She spoke up and I hummed in agreement.
