- Fuck, it's raining
Glen said opening the door and closing it. He let go of my hand and put his jacket over us
- I love the rain it's so peaceful
I said tumbling over
Glen smiled at me
- It's ok
- It's awesome! I love the rain it's so cool, you get to jump in puddles!
- I don't like getting my boots dirty
- Dirty boots? Whatever! Live life, Matlock
I got in his face and pulled him close by his shirt
- Jump in puddles when you see one, it's so beautiful!
I let go of his shirt and saw a puddle in front of us and screamed in excitement
- A puddle!
I let go of his hand and jumped in the puddle, my boots and my tights were getting wet and dirty
- Your clothes!
- I don't care!
I yelled turning over to him, he watched as I continued to jump in the puddles
- Your gonna fall Aeliana
- Shut up!
I turned around and jumped around in the puddle I lost balance and fell in the puddle
- Aeliana!
Glen yelled
I got up and looked at myself I looked down at my shirt and laughed
- Why are you laughing?
I laughed so more and took my jacket off and threw it on the floor
- Aeliana...
I got up and turned over to Glen, he was standing over me and holding his hand out to help me up
- Glen
- Mm hm?
I looked him in the eyes and went silent I smiled big I could feel it through my ears
- Your so handsome
His face turned red and he smiled a little
- I-
- Aeliana, save it for another time
My smile faded and I looked at the ground
- Am I bad friend?
- What?
I covered my face with my hands and started to cry
- No, no why are you crying?
- I ruined Janie's moment, she could've been with that dude, I'm such a terrible person
- No, your not it's ok she doesn't mind
- I'm so terrible!
- Aeliana, your not a bad friend, ok? Your a very caring and a hell of a person, I love that about you
- Caring?
- Yes!
I got up and hugged Glen tight
- Aeliana...
- Thank you, Glen
- Your hurting me...
- Oh, sorry! I'm so sorry
- It's ok your just really fuckin strong
- Thank you
- Alright, I'm gonna take you home so you can sleep this off
- Ok
He held my hand as the rain poured on us, he walked me home and made sure I went home.
I closed the door and put my back to the door I smiled and went upstairs to sleep.
