Call me a fool, but...

Alrighty...

Khaos has some BIG news. Although it may not surprise many...it surprised me.

Just two days ago EXACTLY, after school, my ex, Tyler, met up with me to hang out until I had to leave, which was around six fifty or seven p.m...We walked around for a bit, and it started to rain. It wasn't raining all that hard, but it was kind of the wrong time for it to start raining, since I had always wanted to be somewhere with him while it rained and we were dating. Well, he looks at me and says, "Is it okay if I show you this one spot I had wanted to take you to when we were dating? I think you will like it there, and there's trees, so we shouldn't get rained on too bad." So I told him I was fine with that.

He leads me to this lovely area with a stream going through it, and says that there is a specific area there that he wants to take me. So he keeps leading me, all the while helping me up and down the steep slopes. We get to another part of the stream, and I tried to make it across on my own...I slipped on a rock and got the top right half of my shirt and hair wet. I was embarrassed, but he assured me it was fine. So we sat there quiet for a bit, just listening to the stream.

A few seconds later, it starts LITERALLY pouring rain on us. He looks down, so I ask him what is wrong. He looks over at me, with that look he used to give when we had been together, and he says, "Back when we were together, THIS is EXACTLY how I wanted us being here to happen. I wanted it to be pouring rain, and just you and me. And now it's happening. Just...at the wrong time." So I nodded, stood, and walked over to some cattail things. I started pulling them out of the ground. Then he said, "Come on, let's go back." So he helped me pick up my stuff, and put my glasses in his coat pocket.

He helped me up another steep slope and we got to the open...we were still getting rained on pretty bad, haha. Both of us had soaking wet clothes and hair. My bags also got soaking wet, so some of my un-needed paperwork is water-damaged. My headphones survived.

We finally got to the VC, and went to the back of it. I recalled that I had an extra shirt, and checked to see if it was still dry. Luckily for me, it was. I changed my shirt not too far away from where he was standing, back turned to me, thank goodness. *laughs*. So I told him he was okay to look when I was dressed completely. We walked to a dry area, and sat there for a bit. Then came our hopeless confessions...we still love one another.

For a while, we just messed around, running around in the rain, and then he had to...*haha* use the restroom. So while he was gone, I spun around in circles in the rain. He ended up running back up to me once he had returned and caught me before I fell. When I could focus, I looked up at him, and we stared into one another's eyes for quite some time before we walked back to the dry area. He ended up staring at me for a while, and when I finally asked what he was thinking about, he said, "I'm just trying to decide something."

So as I had gotten kind of bored finally, I started to walk back into the rain, and he pulled me back, gently. He had me kind of...against a wall. He stared into my eyes again. "I've decided. But I think it will be easier to show you." We stood there. Nothing.
"Tyler, um, are you going to show me what you have to show me? Otherwise...I won't understand."
"I'm afraid that I might get slapped."
"Haha, do I look like I would slap you?"
"Actually, and no offense meant, but yeah, you do." *chuckles nervously while blushing*
"I won't slap you...I promise."
"Then...I might as well just go for it."
In that moment, he leaned in and kissed me. This time, our kiss was far more passionate than the ones in the past. I learned. When he pulled away, we smiled and went in for another kiss. It was in that moment that we confirmed that we were officially back together. Then I smiled.
"Tyler, could we...um..."
"What?"
"Could we move into the rain a little bit?"
"Um, sure. Haha. But why?"
"Well...I've always wanted to kiss someone in the rain...*blushes*"
"*smiles* Okay."
We kissed again. In the rain. I felt like I was flying. It was, in all honesty, like a movie to me. I never thought that it would happen, just like most events within a moive, and yet, there it was, happening. I ended up walking out into the open, just staring off at nothing. Tyler came up behind me and held me.
"Tyler...will it still be like this later?"
"Later? *chuckle* No. It'll be better."
"Do you know what I meant?"
"Hmm...our future?"
I giggled.
"I was right, huh? *chuckles*"
"Tyler, I meant tomorrow...will we still be able to be like this?"
He kissed me again.
"Of course we will."
Then he walked me to the college.

I got in a lot of trouble by my parents for being gone until a little bit past seven, but it was only because they were really worried. I've never seen my mother cry like that, so...I vowed never to do that to her again. But I won't tell them about Tyler again until I feel they are ready for it, and right now isn't the time. But from now on I will let them know where I'm going, what I'll be doing, and how long I should be.

For the record, though....
....it was totally worth it....
....because I'm happy again.
