It was a gloomy day filled with nonstop pouring rain and thunder. Ellie spent most of her lessons staring out of the window with a pacing heart beat, suddenly feeling on edge with the rain again.

She thought she was finally over her tragic fear of rain, so why did she feel so disturbed by it? "Sunoo!" She called out and quickened her pace to catch up with the boy before he left the school building.

Sunoo turned around with a wide smile yet his eyebrows creased with confusion. "Do you know why Jungwon wasn't in today?" She wondered, noticing the boys disappearance which was rare due to his being a full attendance student.

"Apparently he's really sick." He explained with a shrug on his shoulders, Ellie slowly nodded her head and thanked the boy before turning to leave - only to turn back around to face Sunoo once again.

"Can we you tell me his address?"

Gyeongju, house number 143. Ellie's eyes wondered around the quiet neighbourhood whilst being drenched by the rain. Unluckily for her, all of the school buses had left by the time she got his address, meaning she had no choice but to run in the pouring rain just to get to his house.

It's what love does to you. It makes you do stupid things for the person you'd do anything for.

Ellie quickly hurried up to the front porch of the sweet looking house and desperately knocked on the door - shivering from the cold. After a few seconds the white door swung open, revealing a tired looking Jungwon.

He wore a navy blue oversized jumper and black joggers, the hood of his jumper covering his dark brown hair. His skin was paler than usual and he looked as though he could drop off at any moment.

"Ellie?" Jungwon spoke with a panicked tone, his eyes scanning the drenched girl. "What are you doing here!" He questioned, "it's raining." He stated, worrying about her fear of her rain and noticing how heavy it actually is.

"I heard you were sick, are you okay?" She asked with a worried accent, looking up at him with hopeful eyes. Jungwon just stared at the girl, how can someone be so perfect? He asked himself before gently grabbing her wrist and pulling her into his chest - hugging her tightly.

His warm hands soothingly pat her wet hair as she clings onto his jumper. "I'm going to get you wet." She giggled and attempted to pull away, only to be brought back into his cozy chest for a minute longer.

"I missed you so much" he mumbled into her hair, taking in the seductive floral scent that he was secretly obsessed with - amazed how despite the rain it still lingered within her clothes and hair. "You're probably freezing, I'll get you some warm clothes." He pointed out and finally pulled away from the tight hold he had on her.

"Come upstairs." He encouraged and began to lead her up into his room, rummaging through draws as he tried to find comfortable clothes for her. Ellie on the other hand, let her eyes roam around his room, admiring the photo of him when he was younger and playing in the snow - the Polaroid photo he took of her on the ferris wheel leaning against the frame of it.

"Here." He said causing Ellie to pull away from her thoughts and turn to look at him. "You can change in the bathroom." Jungwon held the clothes out neatly in front of her and pointed to the bathroom beside his room.

Ellie smiled sweetly up at him and entered the small room, accidentally leaving the door slightly ajar as she closed it behind her. Jungwon, who now was sat on the edge of his bed, looked up from his twiddling thumbs to see the girls reflection in the mirror through the crack of the door. Her shirt was in the middle of being pulled over her head, exposing her smooth pale back and black bra clasp. He quickly cleared his throat and widened his eyes in shock before a red flush escalated over his cheeks.

He quickly reached over onto his night stand and picked up his Rubux cube and began to fiddle with it, distracting himself and turning away from the door to face the wall above his bed.

After a few minutes or so, Ellie exited the bathroom - showing off the Jungwon's clothes and how well they complimented her. "So.." she awkwardly blurted out and came to sit beside Jungwon on his bed. "If you want me to leave, I can-" she started but was instantly cut off.

"No!.. no, I don't want you to leave." He stated and turned his body to face her. "I hate that we can't hang out anymore." He admitted and Ellie nodded in agreement, "just stay over for the night and we can talk about things in the morning.." he suggested.

Ellie giggled and unconsciously leaned into the boys embrace as she smiled widely, an overload of joy blossoming inside of her. "Are you sure I can stay? I wouldn't want to be a burden and you're sick." She suddenly remembered the reason she came over in the rain in the first place.

Jungwon quickly hushed her with a chuckle, "it's fine, I no longer feel sick now that you're here and I sleep better when I'm beside you anyway." He reassured and Ellie couldn't relate more.

Jungwon moved back under his covers and tapped the space beside him, encouraging the girl to get in next to him - which she did without hesitation. She really missed his warmth, his touch, his scent, she just missed him.

Jungwons arms wrapped around her waist and cradled her in closer to him. Friends don't do this, do they? "Good night, el." He softly whispered into her ear, making a smile form on her glossed lips - yet being too tired to even speak back.

"I love you." He whispered once again, only this time the sound of sweet snores left her as she had fallen asleep.
