Rain.
It was so cold, beating on her skin like needles. Her blood red hair was plastered to her face as she hugged her knees to her chest.
This 5-year old girl was sitting on a bench. She was a while from home. Her parents were yelling again.
She squeezed her eyes shut as a few tears slipped out. They fell down her pale cheek, mixing with the rain pounding on her already cold body.
The light from the street lamp was gone, so was the rain. The red-head looked up to see two boys in front of her. One was holding an umbrella above them.
"Hey, you're in our class!"
She wiped the water from her eyes so she could see who spoke. A small blonde kid was next to a slightly taller black-haired kid. The blonde was smiling at her.
She shakily nodded her head.
"I-I'm Amy Rose." She whispered.
"We know! I'm Mitskuni Haninozuka, and this is Takashi Morinozuka!" Mitskuni leaned foreward and he suddenly had a very curious expression on his face.
"Why are you sitting alone in the rain?"
Amy's face went emotionless. Takashi noticed her discomfort and placed a hand on Mitskuni's shoulder.
"That's not our business." He said. Mitskuni looked up at him then back down to Amy. His smile returned.
"You wanna play with us? Our drivers late, and we don't really have anything to do."
Amy set her feet on the ground and stared at the two boys in front of her. Mitskuni was grinning from ear to ear. She looked over to Takashi and they locked eyes. A smile graced his face and he held out his hand for her to take.
She reached out and Takashi pulled her up from the bench. The rain began to lighten up and the moon was visible through the clouds.
