The summer shower had sprung up suddenly, thoroughly drenching the outside world. Dark clouds in the sky would have served as a warning, Newt reasoned, if he'd bothered to look up. But the sun had been shining brightly in between growing thunderheads and they'd been so lost in their conversation that he hadn't bothered one bit.

They were both soaked and Tina was fumbling with her wand, trying to draw it and cast an umbrella charm. Deciding this was taking too long, Newt grabbed her arm and pulled her along as he ducked under a shop's awning and into the relative dryness it afforded.

For a few moments they simply stood, taking in each other's rain-soaked appearance before delving into conspiratorial laughter. The giggles lasted until a monstrous peal of thunder rattled the windows and interrupted their mirth. Startled, they both jumped forward, instinctively embracing as they peaked from under their shelter. Newt let out a chuckle.

"Nothing like a bit of thunder to herald you into your lover's arms."

"Right, because nothing says 'romance' like the expansion of rapidly heated air," she said, hand shaking slightly as she smoothed his dripping bangs away from his grinning face. He replied by pressing a kiss to the tip of her nose, pulling her in tightly against him as they both calmed from their small fright.
