Only For You Would I Stand Out In The Rain

"It's called the internet, Sean." Ellie said thickly, smirking as Sean nearly fell over as he carried all the books into the empty media immersion class.

Sean growled and dropped the books on the floor. "Ugh." He muttered, pulling off his beanie and sitting beside Ellie. He could sense there was still a bit of tension between the two of them, but Ellie really seemed to want to get the project done, so she was pushing away their differences until it was finished.

"So.. How are you and Emma?" she blurted suddenly. It was the first thing that came to mind. She automatically gritted her teeth at the mention of Emma- and the fact that she was the one who had mentioned her.

Sean froze as well, blinking in confusion. "We're not together." He replied slowly.

"Really?" Ellie shrugged. "I thought you two looked cute together." She tried to hide her jealousy, but she knew it was working for the look on Sean's face.

"Shouldn't we be working on this or something?" Ellie snapped Sean out of his smile as she turned to the computer and started typing like a maniac. Sean just watched Ellie, taking in her eyes, her hair, her nose, and mostly her lips.

"You know, you checking me out isn't part of the project." Her voice was smooth as velvet.

Sean went through about ten shades of red. "I wasn't checking you out!" he said, embarrassed.

"I'm sure you weren't." she said coyly, smirking.

"Were you just flirting with me?" he teased, smiling widely.

"Dream on."

"Guess I got to you."

"Dream on."

"You say that a lot." Sean muttered , and Ellie looked up.

"Hmm?"

"Nothing."

"Look at this!" Ellie said suddenly, pointing to the screen. "It says here that-"

Suddenly they head footsteps, then a loud crashing noise. Ellie looked down to see one of Sean's books sliding towards her. Her eyes widened as she stood up and looked over.

Sean stood up, surprised. At the same exact time the two noticed Mr. Raditch had stepped on one of the books strewn in the doorway, slipping and falling over.

The next few seconds all happened quickly. Next thing they knew Ellie and Sean were on the floor themselves, laughing.

"You think it's funny, do you?" Raditch said angrily, standing up and dusting off his sleeves. "I hope you'll also find it funny that you now have detention for a week."

"It was worth it." Ellie said, smiling to Sean as Mr. Raditch vanished. They were still on the floor, looking over and smiling at each other.

Sean was caught up in the moment. "You're so pretty when you smile, El." He grinned.

Ellie nearly melted in his smile. "You'll get tired of it after a week in detention." She said slowly. Her face was like stone and wasn't about to weaken. She got up and left the room.

"I can't let him do this to me." She whispered. "He'll just break my heart all over again."


Ellie walked into the cafeteria the next day, hastily greeted via the Cameron boy.

"Hey!" he said cheerfully, grinning.

"Look," Ellie said slowly. "I'll swallow my pride whenever we're working on the project- but other then that- you cheated on me." She turned to go.

Sean's face fell. "Wait!" he grabbed her arm and pulled her over. "What happened in MI?"

"I couldn't do it. You cheated on me and I didn't want my heart broken again."

"What if- what if I can prove I didn't cheat on you, Ellie?"

Ellie turned around. "What?"

"Let me prove it. Prove I didn't and wouldn't cheat on you."

"Fine." She whispered. "Prove it to me, Sean."


THUMP!

THUMP!

It was pouring rain outside, and it was all Ellie could do to get up and look at the clock. Two in the morning. She looked towards the window, and the thumping slowed. "Good." She muttered. But soon the thumping started all over again.

Ellie started to get agitated, and walked over to the window. As soon as she opened it she jumped back in shock. There stood a figure. Who, she couldn't seem to tell. But this figure was holding a stereo.

Hey, little girl
I wanna be your boyfriend
Sweet little girl
I wanna be your boyfriend
Do you love me babe?
What do you say?
Do you love me babe?
What can I say?
Because I wanna be your boyfriend

"WHY WOULD I EVER STAND OUT IN THE RAIN FOR YOU IF I DIDN'T LOVE YOU!" he called, and Ellie smiled.

She grabbed her jacket, threw it on quickly, and ran down her steps and out her door, and into the pouring rain.

"I couldn't find a better-" Sean called as she got closer, but he stopped as Ellie's lips met his, wet from the rain.

Sorry this is so short and not where I was actually going to go with it, but, I've got horrible writers block and this is the best I could come up with. Sorry it took oh-so long to update. Ugh. Next chapter will be in POV form, and don't all you Semma fans get depressed, Semma'll have it's turn in this fic. The song is by the Ramones, I wanna be your boyfriend, I'm pretty sure.
