Halcyon
oo7: Forgetful Weather

It was a wet day in Japan. The sky was littered with gray cumulonimbus clouds and people filled the streets with their vibrant umbrellas, not at all worried about a little rain. It was really such a stark contrast from the sky that it made Sakura eager to get out and stroll in the rain.

Looking at the clock on her work desk, Sakura saw that there was just a few more seconds until the workday was over.

39… enter today's work hours.

44 … shut off computer.

48 … pack up bag.

58 … reach for umbrella…

Sakura blinked, her head then turning left and right searching for the pink umbrella that should've been under her desk. Suddenly, the thought of her getting off the train this morning entered her head, and how she had left her umbrella under her seat. Sakura face palmed, knowing that that was exactly what had happened. The sound of the rain quickening caused her to look up to see water droplets hitting the window just a little harder with each passing moment.


Syaoran was so excited to get home today. Wet days meant staying in and cooking warm comfort food, like congee. All packed and ready to go, Syaoran made a beeline for the exit.

He stepped out onto the lobby ready to open his umbrella only to see Sakura waiting outside under the awning of the building. He approached her and smiled when she looked his way to which she eagerly returned.

"What are you doing out here?"

"I, uh, forgot my umbrella on the train." She knocked at her head and Syaoran quickly remembered their first date. Stepping even closer to her, Syaoran proceeded to open up his umbrella.

"Shall we go?" Syaoran asked as he offered her his arm.

She nodded, the two heading out into the rain, their steps in sync with one another and their bodies pressed closely together. Perhaps forgetting her umbrella on the train wasn't so bad. After all, it did lead Sakura and Syaoran to start holding hands.

A/N: I apologize for this rather late update. A few things have come up irl but I'm just really excited for what's to come. Anyway, this was inspired by the gloomy days that SoCal has been having lately. But, I'm unsatisfied with this drabble's title. Any suggestions? And thank you for the follows and reviews, I really appreciate them! Xoxo~
