——————/———————/———————
Yet another day of work was coming to an end. You packed your things and took one last look around to make sure you didn't forget anything. You headed for the exit of your workplace when you suddenly heard thunder.
‘’Not again’’ you muttered to yourself.
It wasn’t the first time you had been caught in the rain walking back home from work. But today the newscast never had once mentioned the possibility of rain so you thought you were out of trouble not bringing your umbrella. You already had so many things to bring for work today that an umbrella was the least of your worries.
You looked outside the glass door and watched as the rain poured, jumping slightly when the thunder hit again. Your home was only a couple of blocks away from here, you hated the thought of having to take a taxi and the bus wasn’t going to have its next stop here until an hour later. So you decided that your backpack would be the perfect shield to protect your head from the rain. Taking one last breath in you pushed the door and stepped outside.
You walked for a few minutes, and although you were already soaked, the weather wasn’t cold enough to make it horrible for someone to be outside at this time. As for your clothes, you would change them once you were home.
The wind started blowing and the thunder hit once again, much louder and closer to you this time. It startled you and you decided to go under the small edged roof of a closed bakery. you put your bags down and searched your backpack for your phone. It was then that you heard a faint voice in the distance. You looked up to see a figure on a motorcycle. She had parked in front of you on the side of the road and was getting off to approach you. Hesitant you only watched as she approached.
‘’Hey, are you alright? It’s doing quite terrible outside’’ she gave you a small smile
‘’Oh it's fine, i'm just waiting for all of it to calm down, my home isn’t too far away from here.’’
‘’You might get sick staying out here, it was announced to rain until later tonight’’ she replied as she watched you fidget.
She continued seeing as though you were unsure. ‘’Listen, my house is right at the end of the road, you can stay in a dry place until the rain stops if you want, i wouldn't want something bad to happen to you’’
Was she hitting on you? Or was she simply being nice because you were a stranger stranded out in some sort of a rain storm? You opted for the second option to calm your nerves. After all she didn’t seem to have any bad bone in her and her eyes seemed warm and attentionate.
‘’So?’’
You got pulled out of your train of thoughts
‘’Are you sure?’’ You asked and she nodded back, patting the seat behind her on her motorcycle. You agreed and walked towards her.
She helped you put your bags onto the motorcycle and into its small luggage compartment at the back. She was about to put on her helmet but stopped in her tracks. She looked at the helmet in her hands and then at you.
‘’Here, it'll serve you better for now’’ the girl said, finding any excuses to show affection towards you. she approached your figure and pushed the damp hair that clung to your forehead to the side. She placed the helmet before buckling the strap under your chin. ‘’Here, you'll be safe now’’ she smiled at you. What a charming individual you thought to yourself.
You sat on the motorcycle behind her. When the motorcycle started you were a bit destabilized, forcing you to grip onto her waist. You heard her chuckle at your actions before saying sorry for the sudden speed. You clung onto her until you arrived in front of an apartment complex. She helped you off the bike and took off your helmet, placing your hair once again when she was done.
She took your bags and turned to you ‘’ you can follow me if you still wish to do so’’ she smiled making your heart beat faster this time. This beautiful woman was really inviting you inside her apartment? You began to feel a bit flustered but was able to stammer out a ‘’okay’’.
You followed inside and down a hall before she unlocked a door. You should've guessed by the type of motorcycle she owned, but the apartment looked to be expensive and was neatly decorated. It smells like a fresh breeze with a hint of citrus. She placed your things down and invited you to sit on the sofa in the living while she would go make you a tea to warm up.
You stayed up at the entrance, hesitant to go any further due to the fact that you were soaked from the rain. You heard a small gasp followed by hurried footsteps. ‘’Oh sorry! I didn’t think about your clothes’’ and with that she disappeared once again but in the opposite direction. She came back a few seconds later with a shirt, socks and sweats.
She offered them to you, ‘’if you want you can take these for now, the bathroom is right over there’’ she said suddenly shy. You agreed and went to change your soaked clothes. Once changed you looked in the mirror. You suddenly felt flustered, you were in this girl's house now wearing her shirt while she was waiting for you in the living room. You breathed out before mentally preparing yourself to get out, you knew she was gonna be right there staring at you. You got out with a slight blush on your cheeks and sat on the opposite side of her. She looked at you with a small giggle, ‘’it suits you, you look adorable’’
You muttered a small thank you before pulling the cup of tea up to take a sip and hide your now growing smile. As you took a sip you realized the mistake you had just made. You slightly jumped at the hot liquid and placed your cup down before grimacing out of pain.
‘’Oh! Let me get you some cold water’’ she said and got up quickly. She got back with a cold glass of water to offer you. ‘’Here’’ she gave you, trying not to laugh at your cute mistake. You took a sip and felt immediately better. ‘’Thank you’’
‘’Who do i have the honor of being in company of, today?’’ She asked before sipping her own cup of tea.
Not registering her words you looked at her confused
‘’Your name?’’ She smile teasingly
‘’Oh! My name is y/n’’ you smiled at her
‘’Well it's nice to meet you y/n, you can call me Dami’’
‘’It's nice to meet you as well! Thank you for..rescuing me out of the rain’’ you laughed nervously
‘’Oh, no problem, i know the rain sucks and it could of been bad with the thunder’’
You sipped on your tea nodding along. This was the start of a long conversation between the two of you. From both your work lifes, family and adventures with friends. The girl in front of you looked at you more and more fondly as the time went on. So did you honestly, what was to not like about her. You both went on until you realized the sun was down. You were now sitting on the same bench, you had moved over when you showed pictures on your phone.
You looked out the window as she excused herself to the bathroom. You gasped and looked at your phone, it was much later than you thought it would have been. Dami walked back to you with a smile. She saw you looking at your phone and tilted her head at you lightly scratching the back of her neck. ‘’Sorry i kept you this long, i hadn’t realized the time was passing by so quickly’’ she smiled at you, feeling sorry.
‘’It's fine Dami, I promise, I had a great time’’ you smiled at her. You saw her flustered for the first time of the night, a light blush spreading across her face with a nervous giggle.
‘’Well it was my pleasure y/n’’ she exclaimed before picking the cups to then bring them to the kitchen counter. You got up and made your way towards the entrance where you put on your boots. Dami came back, leaning on the wall while staring at you.
You looked down to make sure you were not forgetting anything when you realized you still had her clothes on.
‘’Oh, sorry i'll give you those back’’
‘’ it's fine, i could of taken them off of you if i really would of wanted too’’
You blushed at her teasing comment.
‘’Here, how about you bring them back to me tomorrow, i'll give you my number if that's fine’’
You nodded shyly before giving her your phone.
She gave it back to you.
‘’Will you be fine walking back home?’’ she asked, suddenly worried.
‘’Yes, i will be fine, i’m just two streets away from here’’ Dami suddenly blushed at your words before talking ‘’Oh sorry..i should have just dropped you home’’ she said embarrassed.
Finding the courage, you reciprocated her teasing, ‘’No it's fine, i think i could make this home too’’ you said with a slight smirk, you watched her shocked expression before she giggled along with you.
‘’I wouldn't mind that’’ she says with a fond smile.
‘’Thank you Dami’’ you said before quickly pecking her cheek for her to then try to hide her blush unsuccessfully.
‘’I will bring you back your clothes tomorrow Dami-ah! Have a good night!’’ You said before winking at her. You turned around and opened the door.
‘’I will see you tomorrow y/n, be safe on your way! If there's anything I'm not too far off so don't hesitate!’’
You thanked her with a big smile, leaving the door closed behind you with a feeling of warmth in your heart.
You couldn't wait until tomorrow, to see her smile again. After all, you might just be a fan of the rain.
