Kate's restlessness denied her sleep. Detecting the squeaking of steps, she sat up. It was getting closer to her door. Leaving her bed, she walked towards the door. Placing her hand around the doorknob, slowly she turned it. Violently it knocks her to the floor.

A hand grips her neck as her nightgown gets ripped off her body. Screaming she wakes up.

Bringing her knees to her chest, "Why now?" she thought, "Why another nightmare?"

Getting up, she walked out the room down the stairs towards the couch.

Staring at the back of couch, "Rath."

No response.

"Rath!"

Peering over the back, no Rath could be seen.

"Where did he go?" she thought.

She had a feeling where he went. Slipping her shoes and putting a jacket on, she went outside with the flashlight on. The light beam cut through the darkness.

"Time to trust woman's intuition," she remarked walking into a direction.

Her footsteps crunched through the silent dark forest. Passing trees, she dodged branches. Finally the trees cleared and standing in the center with his arms straight out and palms up was Rath.

"Rath?"

No reply.

"Rath," she repeated, "I had a nightmare."

No sound.

"Fine," turning around, "Sorry for bothering you," walking away.

"What was it?" stopped her feet.

"Excuse me."

"Your nightmare. What was it?"

Turning around, she saw Rath's hands were in the coat pockets and his eyes on her.

"Someone raped me."

"You came out here to tell me that."

"I forgot compassion isn't in your vocabulary."

"You told me to leave."

"True and I tried to use you instead I feel in love. I regretted losing you."

"So did I."

Thunder crackled overhead.

"Sounds like we going to get soaked," she replied.

Walking towards her, the rain appeared. Putting his arm around, he tried covering her with his coat. Touching his hand, her mind flashed back to their nights of passion together.

Standing in front of him, "Wait," then pressed her lips against his.

This wasn't a little peck, no it was full on connect almost like she was trying to suck his face into her throat. As their lips continued tasting each other, her hand removed his hat. Grabbing the collar of his coat, she pushed it off his shoulders. Her jacket ended up joining his coat on the wet ground.

The rain was soaking through their clothes. It didn't stop her from removing his shirt. Her mouth sucked on his right nipple. Her fingernails dug into his back as his mouth worked down her neck towards her nightgown left strap. His mouth untied the knot. His left hand slid the another strap off her shoulder. It joined the jacket and coat on the water covered ground. His mouth kissed, nibbled, and sucked on her left breast as his left hand rubbed her right breast.

Her fingers slid down his chest towards the zipper on his pants. Slowly bending towards the ground, her fingers gripped his pant's waist line dragging him with her. She unbuttoned and unzipped his pants. Her hand felt his stiffing penis. Sliding along the waistband, she removed his pants. The rain dripped off their bare skin.

"Let's go all the way," she whispered into his ear.

Rubbing her wet bare leg, "Sure."

"Yes."

He parted her legs. The clash of thunder drowned out her scearms of ecstasy.

Sunlight shown across her sheet covered body. Blinking to the sunlight on her eyes, she sat up. The sheet fell from her chest to reveal her bare breasts. Studying the room, she found a note.

Reading it, "He left," came from her lips, "Was it a dream?" remembering last night's event in the rain.

Getting up, she went to the bathroom. Hanging from the shower curtain railing, was her nightgown . Touching it, her eyes widen to the touch of damp cloth.
