Ballad of Rain

Chapter Seven

      They finally got to his house and Rain brought her into his bedroom. He went into his kitchen while Sam stayed in his room. She examined the room and then climbed onto the bed. Rain got a couple bottles of juice and walked back into his room, only to return to a sleeping Sam. He smiled and sat the drinks down. He carefully got in bed and laid next to her. She immediately crawled over and embraced Rain. He wrapped his arms around her, and after a couple minutes passed Rain couldn't help but drift off as well. Rain woke up to the sound of his alarm going off. He looked over and saw it was 5:00. He then looked at Sam, who was still sound asleep. He couldn't help but smile when he looked at her. He couldn't explain why, but when he looked at her, he couldn't help but feel overwhelming happiness. She made him believe that there was hope left for this cruel and unforgiving world. As thoughts like these were racing through Rain's head, Sam had woken up and was now staring at him. He noticed after a little while and began to blush, "Good morning Sammy," He said softly. She smiled and wrapped her arms around him, "Good morning Rain." Rain went back to being lost in thought. He didn't remember telling Sam his name. He sat for a minute thinking of how she could know it. He did work at a radio station so she could've got it from that. "The lady at the store told me your name." Sam explained, Almost as if she knew what he was thinking. Rain just brushed it off and pushed it to the back of his mind. "So," Rain started, "Do you want to go get breakfast?" Sam excitedly jumped out of bed and said yes, so Rain also got up and they got into his truck.
