Love stories

Dancin' in the rain

I stare out the window in perplexity, wondering how in the world could she be out there. My astounding girlfriend was in the backyard, running around like a little kid. I mean she does this constantly & that's another reason why I love her, but I don't know why she does it when it's pouring out there. I watch her bounce around, splashing in the muck & getting her clothes all dirty & right now I could care less, because all I truly see is her beaming smile.

I sit at the table in the living room, quaffing my coffee, thinking how grateful I was to have someone like her. I take a fleeting look at her, before I turn back to my coffee thinking how did I get so lucky, she was all mine & I would never let her go. As I gaze in her direction, I see she's made it a habit to play on the swings, when she's out there. I watch as she's laughing at herself, jumping around like a toddler, just soaking up the day.

I stand up & walk into the kitchen to put my cup in the sink. My back now facing the sink as I lean on it, then I hear the sound of a door sliding open, then shutting. I walk into the living room, to find a soaked girl, with the light of the room shining on her, causing her body to have a luminance glow. With water droplets falling from the ends of her hair & tips of her fingertips.

"Babe you look freezing," I say & grab the towel I had waiting for her, off the back of my chair. I wrap it around her shoulders & pull her in for a warming hug. "Did you have fun?"

She nods, then says, "Will you come out with me?" I look at her face, her brows curving above her ocean blue eyes, & her, now purple, lips pouting.

"Of course babe." I pull her closer, then lean up to peck the top of her head. I pull out of the hug & look at her, "I'm gonna get a towel, for when we come back in." I kiss her cheek, then walk down the hall.

"Nicky?" I hear her yell from where I left her. Why does my heart melt when she calls me that, my name's Nick & I can't get enough of when she calls me 'Nicky', oh how I love it when she gives me nicknames.

"Yeah sweetheart?" I ask with the towels in my hand as I'm walking back down the hall, closer & closer to the one I love.

"I love you." I look at her & see deep within them, she's thinking of me.

I set the towels on the table & walk over to her, "I love you Logan." I snake my arms around her waist & pull her in.

She pulls me closer by wrapping her arms around the back of my neck. As she set's her head on my chest, my heart starts to beat faster. Even though we've hugged & kissed millions of times, every time we do it feels like the first time. My heart beats fast & loud, but she thinks it's cute.

"Logan?" I question as I look down at her.

She looks up to face me, "Yeah Nicky?"

I smirk at her nickname for me, "I'm gonna get clothes to change into, for when we come back in."

She leans up & ghosts her lips over mine, before kissing them. The kiss was slow & sweet, not full of lust, but love & passion. She pulls out & giggles, most likely because my eyes are closed, taking in the kiss.

"Can you get me some clothes too?" She asks softly.

"Yeah," I kiss her cheek then run upstairs to get our clothes.

I know how she loves wearing my clothes & sometimes I think she looks better in them than I do. So I grab two of my shirts, a pair or Logan's sweats for her, & a pair of mine for me.

"Nicky, are you coming?" I hear Logan yell. "I'll be outside."

I run down stairs, as she closes the slide door. I set the clothes on the back of my chair, then run outside.

"Logan!" I yell.

She turns around & giggles, "Yeah Nicky?"

I try to stop, but the ground was wet & the mud made me trip, falling on Logan.

She falls backwards, me on top, laughing. "Oh god, Nicky."

As she continued laughing, I just laid there looking at her. She was so beautiful, even with mud in her hair & rain drenching her clothes.

After a while Logan stopped to take a breath & saw me sraring at her. "Nicky?" She asks me. "What's wrong?"

I smirk at her thinking something was wrong. "Nothing, absolutely nothing." I get off her & then she sits up. "Logan?"

"Yeah" She says, trying to wipe mud off her pants, but only smearing it.

I take her hand & she looks at me, slightly smiling. "I love you."

Once I said that, her face lit up with glee. She leaps into my arms, making me fall back. "I love you too Nicky." She whispers as her head snuggles into my neck.

If possible, i'd want to be this way forever. With the one I love in my arms always, so she knows I love her. For as long as I carry on, I shall always love my Logan.
