• "Now you two get along, me and Mrs.Hurse are going for a while. Try not to kill each other." Said My mom. I stared for a long time at Jake. He stuck out he's toung. I turned around to make my back face him. We really don't like each other. I've hated him since I was 8. We always fight. He's 16 I’m 14. Well now that my Mom has left me here with this monster...what should I do? "This sucks. The only time I get the time off and I’m stuck here with this girl." He said. "Well, I’m not to happy about this myself either!" Still my back facing him. It started to rain after that. The worse part it that we weren't even inside. We were outside sitting on a bench together. "Oh great." He sighed. He got up. "Well we better go back inside." He started walking. "You go by yourself. I'm staying out here." He turned around. "Stay out here in the cold? are you crazy?" Then he mumbled something. "Girls really are strange." I got really annoyed and started yelling at him. "Girls are only strange to you because your a jerk and a pervert! They don't come near you so you think there weird!" I got off the bench. He only stared at me. Then sighed and sat back down. "Well at least I shouldn't leave you out here. Sit back down." "No." I walked farther into the rain. Then spread my arms out wide. Rain made me happy, I always love it when it rains. "So you like rain?" He asked. I nodded. "Rain makes me happy. I don't know why...but it always makes me smile." "Me too." He said. Then stood up and followed me to where I was. "My parents tell me when ever it rains, It's God's blessing falling down on us. In little rain drops. I really don't get it...but it makes sense." I looked at him and smiled. He really isn't such a bad person. He looked at me then smiled too. Then he held out he's hand. "Would you like to dance? "He asked. I thought that was pretty weird. Dancing? in the rain? I didn't really have enough time to think. So I took his hands and he lead. Turling and jumping to the beat of the rain drops. "Your a really good dancer." I said. "Nah, I just take classes." I stopped. "Dance classes? a boy like you?" I laughed. "Yeah, laugh and make fun all you want! I enjoy dancing." I looked at him. "Your not really as a jerk as I thought." I said. "Yeah well your not really as a stupid girl as I thought you were." He laughed. I only smiled. I started walking back to the bench. I didn;t notice the rock in the way so I fell down and slipped. Not only bruising my leg, but exposing my skirt too. "GASP" He said. I could tell he was trying to hold he's laughter. Laughing at my poka-dot underwear. "Shut-up!" I yelled. Then got up, turned around and showed him the chinese middle finger (The pinky) Then stomped angrly back to the bench. I couldn't walk that much and I didn't want to walk all the way back to the house. Jake ran back inside and got a first AID kit. Then started fixing my wound. "Wow, you dance and heal wounds. What else can you do?" I laughed. "I can tell you that you should really look where your going. Stupid girl." "I AM NOT!" I jumped up. "Kidding. I was just kidding! Now sit back down i'm not finished." I sat back down. He finshed tying to cloth. "There. It should hold for a while." He stood up. He was taller than me. "Thank you." I said. He patted me on the shoulder. "No problem." It was stilling raining though it seemed to get rougher. "We should probably go back inside now." He said. "No. I would like to stay out here a little more longer." I said. He looked at me funny. "What? Do you want to catch a cold? Or Mono?" He said stepping close as he raised his voice. (Mono is code for Monoia. Idk if i spelled it right) "No, I told you that I like the rain. I want to stay out here." I started to walk away from him but he grabbed my hand. "Leave me alone!" He then carried me. "I'm taking you back." I struggled to try to re-lease myself from his hands. But instead I must have kicked him. I throw myself to the ground. "I promised your mother I would look after you!" He yelled as I ran away into the rain. I could tell he was running after me. "Well then you shouldn't have promised something you can't keep should you?" Not realizing that I there was a small rock in front of my foot. I tripped. Again. Behind when Jake saw he began to laugh saying, "I told you so!" And laughing again. Luckly my leg was bruised nor was my underwear exposed. I got up. "I would just like to dance again!" The rain was pouring now and all my cloths and his were completey wet. "Look at ourselfs. Were wet. we should go back inside." "Right after we dance." I smiled at him. He backed off a little then reached for my hand. Again we turled and danced, and jumped the evening away~ I was wondering when our mothers we going to come home. We finshied dancing and we came face-to-face. "Your a great dancer." I said again. "You already said that." He smiled. I knew this was leading somewhere. But I didn't want to say anything because it would "spoil the mood". Then suddenly I felt as if he was pulling me closer. "W-" But I suddenly stopped. I knew he was trying to kiss me. As my face suddenly turned red. I didn't try to stop him. Because...I think I was starting to like him too. Well I didn't stop. And he did kiss me. As the rain poured and pured. It lasted for about 3 mintues I think. Until he finally let me go. We was slightly blushing. While my face was as red as a cherry. "So..." He said. I think I knew what he was going to say. "Yes! let's go back home!" I ran back inside and straight to my bedroom. Locking to door as I changed. I heard to door open. "Mimi, Jake! were home!" It was My mom and Mrs. Hurse. Why couldn't they have come sooner?!?! I yelled in my mind. Jake left. and that was the last I saw from him in a long time. He kept on saying no matter what we would come back for me when I realized he was moving. But he lied...because a couple months after it his mother called annoucing he was dead. That he died in a car accident. Imagin how I would have felt when I heard that...I locked myself up in my room for 9 days until I finally came out...but I swore that I would never love again. Until...I met Jessy. ^-^ I still miss Jake...but not as much now because I have Jessy. For me whenever it rains, The image of me and Jake appears in my head. Knowing...that in those rain drops. each is a piece of memory....and love.
