Rain, what is it about it that makes people go crazy, as soon as it starts raining people go running.  I don’t want to get wet, that will ruin my hair, they all seem to say.  The rain washes away all my fears and my tears, they say.  I love the rain, feeling the cold drops, splatter against me.  The rain is when I can think, allow my thoughts to travel.  When it rains, I’ll grab my mp3 player, go outside, and just sit.  

It was another one of those famous Texas storms.  The rain was splattering down against my window and I watched as a streak of lightning went by. I opened my window and stuck my hand out to feel the rain splattering against my fur.  I decided to go for a walk.  As I went outside I smiled, I had no real destination, just a walk to feel the rain.

After a while I stopped at the park. I sat down on a swing and just smiled.  Ah! The rain was pure happiness as it was beating down all around me and I allowed my thoughts to wander. I was thinking about my fathers, my Step team, and my life in general when I heard a familiar voice speak:
“What are you doing out here?” I turned my head and smiled when I saw it was Ryuu and I jumped off the swing.
“I just love coming out in the rain” I said twirling around with a light giggle.
“You really are crazy” he said to me smiling.

We both walked back to his house. He had been sent out to do some shopping.  We enjoyed one another’s company, even though nothing was said.  When we got to his house we stopped and he gave me a hug and I smiled.  When his wings wrapped around me I blinked looking up at him.
“R..Ryuu?”  And that’s when he kissed me as the rain came pouring down around us.

Needless to say my first kiss gave me another reason to love the rain.
