Looking up Fatima notices someone in a car calling her name but she can't really see their face. 

Fatima Zac calls again

Zac is that you

Yeah, stay right there hold on let me get an umbrella

Zac searches in his back seat for his umbrella and can't find one he grabs a hoody off his back seat and exits his car rushing to where Fatima stands.

Hey

Hey

Why are you standing out here the bar is closed

I know that now as the door is closed but it started pouring and I don't have an umbrella so I was trying to wait it out

Oh I don't have an umbrella but I have this hoody you can use it to run to your car

Are you sure it's going to get soaked

It's fine let's get you into your car

Thank you Zac

Running with the hoody over their heads they make it to Fatima's car as she hits her keypad and the car doors unlock.  Once inside Fatima tries to hand Zac back his hoody as he's standing in the rain getting soaking wet but he refuses to accept it.

Zac take this your getting wet

It's okay I'm so happy to see you

Zac please get in your car your going to get sick

Well it will be worth it for this moment right here

Aww but seriously get in your car

Not a chance and risk not seeing you again

Zac that was a one time thing

Fatima was it though?

Yes it was

Are you sure

No, but it has to be

But why Fatima?

It just has to be please take your hoody and get in your car. I'm trying to find a bar that's open right now because I need a drink

There aren't many places open now Fatima look at the time and it's during the week

Ok well please get in your car so I can go to the liquor store then plus you're blocking me in. I can't get out.

How about this it's late and I wouldn't feel right just leaving you out here alone I'll follow you to the liquor store and then when your back in your car you can leave at least your not out and about alone this late

Fine Zac please just get in your car and move so I can leave.

Walking back to his car Zac gets in reversing he allows Fatima out of her parking spot and follows her to a liquor store 10 minutes away. As she parks so does he exiting she quickly runs into the store followed by Zac. The line is long and he tries small talk

It's crazy I looked for you for a few but we never crossed paths again

Oh for real

Yeah I can't lie I thought about you a lot after that night

I thought about you too Zac here and there but that was a one time physical thing remember

Yes,  you keep saying it how can I forget!

Don't say it like that
