Sylvie and Antonio were on a date which felt like were the first date in months. They were both pretty busy with work, and when they did have free time for each other they just wanted to relax and watch movies or they had the kids. Since they both had off two days in a row, which was rare, they wanted to enjoy it. Unfortunately the weather had other plans.

The original date was to grab some food and then take a walk by the pier. But it was raining pretty heavy so they had to take Antonio's truck, but Sylvie was still happy since she was spending time with her boyfriend.

"I'm sorry the weather wouldn't cooperate with us tonight." Antonio apologized as they walked out of the restaurant, completely full and satisfied.

Sylvie shook her head. "No, it's okay." She smiled softly when he took a hold of her hand. "I don't care what we do anyway, as long as I'm with you."

Antonio looked over at her and he smiled at her. "You're amazing, you know?"

Sylvie stopped walking which made Antonio stopped. She leaned up and she gave him a kiss. When she pulled away, she smiled at him. "And don't you forget you." She grinned as they started walking to his truck once again.

As soon as they got inside, it started pouring again. "We just made it. We're getting pretty lucky tonight." She smiled as she buckled her seatbelt and she moved the seat to how she liked it.

Antonio looked over at her, shaking his head. "Always moving my seat." He smiled, as he started the truck and he pulled away.

Sylvie laughed. "Oh shut up." She said, teasingly. She looked out of the window as she stared at the rain hitting the truck. Although the rain made everything gloomy, it was still a beautiful sound against the truck. "You know–" Sylvie began, which caught his attention. He leaned over and he grabbed her hand as he drove to his apartment. "I always did love dancing in the rain when I was younger. It's like once I started high school, and then went off to college, I just stopped having fun."

Antonio looked over at her and then he looked back at the road. After a few minutes, he pulled away which made Sylvie confused. "Antonio, where are we?" She asked, but didn't get any response as he turned off the truck and stepped out.

Sylvie was wondering if the truck broke down, but knowing Antonio, he made sure that never happened. She looked at him in wonder as he opened the passenger side and unbuckled her seatbelt. "What's going on?" She asked, as he took her hand and pulled her gently out of the truck.

"You said you always loved dancing in the rain." He pointed out as the rain drenched them within seconds.

"We're going to get sick, Antonio!" She exclaimed, although truthfully she was overcome with joy...and love. Love for this wonderful human being.

Antonio shook his head. "No, we won't. And if we do, it's worth it." He said as he wrapped his arms around her waist.

"You're worth it." She confessed as she wrapped her arms around his neck. Although it was pouring out, they didn't let it change their night. "Every heartbreak that I went through in my life was worth it since it led me straight to you. Thank you for giving us a chance."

Antonio smiled softly at her and he shook his head. "No, thank you for showing me that I deserve this. I always knew I wanted to take this chance, I just didn't want to get hurt again." He confessed, his hair was soaked and so was the rest of his clothes, yet that didn't bother him. As long as Sylvie was happy, so was he.

Sylvie looked into his eyes as she smiled softly at him. "I'll never hurt you. I might eat your food that you were saving, but I'll never hurt you." She grinned as she leaned up and gave him a kiss. She pulled away and she whispered in his ear. "Later you're mine—-but for now-" She said as she backed away from him. "You have to catch me." She finished as she ran down the street in the rain.

Antonio laughed, shaking his head. He never could remember having this much fun with Laura. After a few minutes of allowing her to get ahead of him, he ran after and after a few seconds, he caught up with her, wrapping his arms around her waist.

Sylvie was laughing hard, shaking her head. "Damn, you caught me." She said, in a disappointed tone.

Antonio laughed as he nuzzled into her neck. "Did you really think I wasn't going to? I run for a living."

Sylvie laughed as she took in pleasure at the feeling of his face into her neck and his arms tightly around her waist. "True. I honestly didn't think you were going to chase me."

Antonio pulled away from her neck and looked at her. "Why wouldn't I? I wouldn't let you run the streets in the dark, alone."

"I just thought because it's raining and you know I would have ran back to you eventually." She said as she wrapped her arms around his neck, slightly massaging the nape of his neck.

Antonio shook his head. "But again, it's dark and raining out. You know I'm protective of you." He smiled, loving the feeling he was getting from her touches.

Sylvie nodded her head, already feeling over the rain and just wanting to be with her boyfriend. "Just protective? I think you mean overprotective." Sylvie laughed as she let her arms fall to her sides. "Let's go home."

Antonio smirked and he shrugged his shoulders. "Gotta protect what's mines, you know?" He nodded his head at her question and he removed his arms around her waist, and then he placed an arm around her shoulders. "Home. I like the sound of that."

Sylvie felt her face turned a bright red because she just called Antonio's apartment her home. But since he didn't mind it, she wasn't going to try to fix it. She was soaked and she wasn't sure if he was going to be okay with her sitting in his truck with her wet clothes. "Baby, I'm soaked. And we're a little far away from the apartment." Antonio looked at her confused, still not understanding the problem. "Are you okay with me sitting on your seats while wet?"

Antonio laughed. "It's just water, Sylvie, not blood. It's fine." A few seconds later, they stopped outside the truck and he let her go. "Besides, you have girlfriend privileges." He gave her a kiss and he opened her door, letting her get in. Noticing she was cold, he closed her door and he opened the back door, bringing out a blanket. He closed the door and then he walked to the driver side, and he stepped inside. He looked over at her and he covered her up in a blanket. "We'll be home soon." He promised as he took out his keys and started the truck, pulling away.

Sylvie looked over at him in awe. This whole night has been perfect, with the wonderful restaurant, to him letting her dance in the rain, to giving her a blanket when she didn't even ask. She pulled the blanket up to her chest and she smiled softly at him. "You're seriously the best boyfriend ever. I feel so lucky."

Antonio looked over at her and he smiled softly. "You just make it easy being a good boyfriend. You don't ask for much."

"Yeah, well, just don't think we're going home and sleeping any time soon." She winked at him.

Antonio smirked, shaking his head.
