There she was, in the rain, soaking wet and not to mention stranded! It was all his fault. Why the hell had she even let him talk her into riding on the motorcycle. Now it was out of gas and the stupid rain had started falling. Okay so she had seen some dark clouds and should have known better, but it looked far away. She hadn't expected it to start pouring so quickly. She had finals the next day. She couldn't take an exam while being sick and she was most definitely going to be sick. This was the type of weather where you would enjoy in the comforts of your home, or dorm room. No she had to let Shawn talk her into it. She was never talking to him again. At that she snorted. Not like she was going to get to talk to him after the next day. She clutched herself tightly and it wasn't because of the cold.

"Jules, c'mon say something."

It was to no avail, she just shifted herself to the other part of the bike, refusing to talk to him.

"Jules you're being worse than Gus. The silent treatment is so immature."

She snapped her head up and looked at him. "I'm being immature?! Shawn look at yourself, everything for you is a game. Everything. You can't take anything serious. You're joking this thing off and I have finals tomorrow Shawn. I'm going to get sick. God! For once can you just think about someone else for change? It's not about what's fun or nice. You need to grow up."

That one had hit him hard. He never expected it from Juliet. His dad yeah, but that was his dad. Nothing he did ever pleased the man, but Jules?

She saw the flash of hurt in his eyes. She knew she should apologize. She wanted to but she didn't. At this point she didn't want to have to talk to him. She wanted to be upset. He was leaving the next day. She had a right to be angry…didn't she?

For a while neither of them said anything. They sat there looking away from the other on silence. The only think breaking it was the heavy downpour above them and the occasional claps of thunder. In reality neither of them could've known about the storm, the weather had changed so rapidly. In fact in spite the dark clouds that were far away, the weather was perfect. Lots of people took advantage of it. The only difference was, they had a car, and Shawn and Juliet were on a bike.

Then she let out a sneeze.

Shawn's head whipped around. "You okay?"

"No my head did not just feel like it was about to be torn off." 'Great move O'Hara' she thought as he turned his head around. Why was she feeling bad? Couldn't she go without a good hour without feeling bad? "Shawn," he voice small as she turned around to face him. "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said those stuff. I guess I was just angry."

"You know, I could always make up an excuse. I'm an expert in that field."

She looked on him and expected herself to roll her eyes and say something along the lines of "of course you are". She didn't know how he did it, but he did. He could've said the most absurd, far out things, but people believed him. In any case those weren't the words that came out of her mouth.

"It's not that." She said it so softly that Shawn had almost not heard it.

"Oh." Registering what is was that had been bothering her.

"Will it be good-bye for good...or just good-bye for now?"

He looked at her. Her blue eyes were scanning his, ready to catch any lies, but there was also a little glimmer in them that dared to hope.

"I don't know." He sounded defeated. He knew him leaving had affected her, but he just didn't know to what extent and when he looked in her eyes it scared him. At the same time it had hurt him because he would never want to see her that sad.

"Well that's the way life goes I guess." He knew she was trying to be tough. Trying to put up a front, but it wasn't working. Her eyes were getting red and he knew those weren't rain drops running down her face.

"Hey." He said pulling her close. "If I have anything to say about though, it's just good-bye for now."

He looked at her with those infectious grins and it seemed to quell her own internal storm as she smiled back.

"Promise you'll come to my graduation though right?" Somewhat regaining her composure.

"Jules of course, why wouldn't I be there? Though I'm not entirely sure you family would approve." Shawn shuddered. Her father and her brothers hadn't exactly been kind to him and it was weird because he didn't even do anything, they just saw him in Missy's Diner talking to her and just made up their mind. He really hadn't done anything...that time.

"I'll let them see it my way."

He gave her a lop-sided grin and she smiled in return. They just stood like that, oblivious to the rain pounding on their shoulders. Until, that is, when a mini-van blew its horn and asked if they needed a ride.
