Rain.

Oh, how you could just splash around in the puddles... stay out until your nose starts feeling itchy and full... or how you could just stay there... standing...

And crying...

No one knowing you are at all...

Man... the Cuban flirt missed rain. He always thought of it, and how he used to splash around in it with his brothers and sisters. How he used to stay out until a cold caught his breath. And how he used to just watch and hear it patter on the window of his room.

But now, he's just a heap of a weeping mess, laying on his bed. In space. With no rain. No calming rumble of thunder. Just stars and planets. Different people. Days filled with fighting that never seemed to end. He never felt so...

Dry...

A shower won't help him now. Its not the same. At all.

Our blue paladin cried silently into his pillow. His thoughts were filled with many, many things. He felt pushed aside. 'Shiro' told him to stay out of things. He wanted to help. But they only thought of him nothing more than a stupid flirt who didn't know any better.

He knows.

He knows.

He... Knows...

He knows he should stop the flirt act. But, how can he? It sewed itself into his personality, and he'd feel lost without it.

But why did the brunette do this? Why...? Why? Why!?

To keep his mind off his family. Everything he does, or has seen, had always lead him back to the memories of his family. His loving family.

A sob wretched through and racketed his throat. More tears fell.

It reminded him of rain. He wished it was raining. So his warm tears can blend in with the cold tear drops from the sky.

So no one would see him like this.

So his tears can become one with rain, and water.

So he won't feel dry, cracked, and helpless. As ground and plants felt with a drought.

So he won't feel alone.
