This one's cuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuute!~


Kanda was not generous in the slightest, he was uncharitable. He was not afraid to speak his mind, and tell people how he felt about them. Only one person made him feel different. Made him want to be kind, forgiving, and generous when he usually was not. He had met him on a rainy afternoon after work. He had been going down the elevator of the office building where he worked, ACE TECH. An electronics company focused on revolutionizing the world, by creating cars that ran on electricity and things like that. He was just one of the customer service employees, who dealt with people who had trouble using the products they purchased from ACE. As a result, Kanda was always crabby and irritated by the time he got home. He pressed the button to go down to the first floor and crossed his arms as the elevator doors closed automatically.

He did not enjoy his job in the slightest, it was either infuriating or boring, there were no in between. Today had been particularly irritable. An old woman would not listen to his instructions if her life depended on it, she kept messing up the whole setup procedure of her computer that she had bought earlier today. The elevator slowly made it's way from the twentieth floor to the first floor. The automatic doors opened and it was pitch black outside and pouring rain. He grumbled about how his day could not get any worse as he practically stomped his way to the entrance of the building. People weaved in and out at a steady rate, it was around ten p.m., he couldn't understand how people could take the night shift here. It was probably hard to stay awake to work.

He opened the glass door to leave without an umbrella because he had forgotten his at home, and another person walked in. "That is what I call a thunderstorm." the man said, closing his umbrella, and smiled at him. He put the umbrella in Kanda's hand, "Looks like you'll be needing this, sir." His eyes were shockingly silver, and his hair and unnatural white. He was brilliantly beautiful, but Kanda scowled at him, he wasn't going to tell the man that. He also wasn't going to pretend to feel grateful for the umbrella when he wasn't, he told himself, he could care less about the rain. "Thanks, I guess," Kanda muttered, opening the umbrella, silver orbs following him as he stepped into the downpour. It was cold and dark, maybe he should've been more grateful after all, he thought to himself as he ran to his car parked in a nearby parking lot. He probably wouldn't have made it all the way to his car without the umbrella he was given by the silver eyed man.

He unlocked his car and stepped inside before he closed the umbrella and put it beside him in the passenger seat. He turned on his car and waited for his car to warm up before he drove home. All he could think about was the white-haired man as he drove, and how kind he had been to give him the umbrella, Kanda decided he'd try to return it to him, so he pulled into his driveway and got inside. He turned on the lights and warmed up some tea as he looked on the umbrella for any signs of the owner's name on it. It was a simple black umbrella, and on the curved handle, a name was written neatly in white marker. ALLEN WALKER. Kanda dried off the object and put it on his couch so he would remember to return it tomorrow. He drank the rest of his tea and took a quick shower, making sure it was nice and warm before he got in and washed until completely clean. He got dressed in some comfy pajamas and crawled into bed.

It was gloomy again in the early morning as he got ready for work. He had an earlier shift today, and he'd probably see that beautiful man again on his way out. It was six a.m., so hopefully, the man was still there. He went into the kitchen and made himself a quick breakfast, french toast. He ate quickly and put his dish in the sink when he was done. Kanda grabbed the umbrella as he left, and got into his car, it was definitely going to rain soon today. He started his car and smiled down at the steering wheel, he didn't know why, but he was excited to get there, just to see that familiar stranger from yesterday. The drive was short, and he pulled into an employee parking space, it had begun to rain again. He smirked, how perfect. He opened the umbrella and walked at a leisurely pace to the building. It wasn't raining too hard, but just enough that other people also carried umbrellas with them.

He walked into the building and shook off the raindrops from the umbrella before he locked his eyes with those familiar silver ones from the day before. They kept eye contact for a few more seconds than appropriate before it thundered loudly, and it poured down harder.

Kanda laughed, "I think you'll be needing this, Allen Walker?" he asked, holding it out to him. The male smiled.

"Yeah probably, thank you," he said, as Kanda handed him the umbrella. "I never got your name, what is it?"

"Kanda Yuu, nice to meet you," Kanda said.

"A pleasure meeting you, Kanda." Allen said, "I'm sure we'll meet again sometime?" He had no idea how right he was. They would see each other almost every day at the same time. Soon it would become sort of like their ritual to see each other as they left and came to work. Eventually, like some things, it came to become something else than just seeing each other at work. They spent a lot more time together than either had planned and it blossomed from a friendship to something more. Something more graceful, kind, and generous.


I told you it was cute, wasn't it? RxR? Rainy days are my favorite.
