Chapter 15: Walking In Rain

"Well then, I'll see you guys at home!" said Kimiko.

"Okay, if you catch a flu, its not my problem…" replied Rika, and they left.

"Aren't you going with them, Colt?" asked Kimiko.

"Nah… I'll walk with you… it's been long since I walked in the rain…" replied Colt.

"Yeah right! You just made up an excuse just because you want to be alone with her! Hah! Jeffery Douglass, you'll never fool Jeffery Douglass…!" thought Colt and shook his head.

"Did you say something?" asked Kimiko.

"Oh, no! Nothing… c'mon, let's go." Said Colt and they walked slowly in the rain.

Kimiko sneezed.

"Well, still think it's a good idea to walk in the rain?" asked Colt, pushing his hair back.

"Maybe still not so bad…" replied Kimiko, laughing.

Kimiko sneezed again.

Colt took of his coat and placed it over on Kimiko's shoulders.

"Thanks… You sure you'll be okay in that…?" asked kimiko.

"Yeah… I'll be alright…" replied Colt.

Kimiko punched Colt's arm playfully.

Colt punched her arm back playfully.

"Hey…" said Kimiko.

"Hey back…" replied Colt.

Kimiko laughed.

Once they reached their neighbourhood, Colt walked Kimiko to her house.

"Well… Thanks for walking in the rain with me… I really owe you one…" she replied.

At that moment, they were close to each other's face.

Then it happened again.

After the kiss, Kimiko asked softly, "How many times did that happen?"

"I don't know… I lost count…" replied Colt, smiling.

"Goodnight… And thanks… for everything…" said Kimiko and went in.

Colt smiled back and left.

Kimiko was grinning from ear to ear once she entered the house.

"Someone's in a good mood…" said Ayumi.

"Shut up…" replied Kimiko.

"Wow, nice coat." Said Rika.

"Oh, shoot! It's Colt's… I must have been really dreamy at that moment…" replied Kimiko.

"What's up with her…? I never seen her… so… normal…!" said Ayumi, licking her lollipop.

"Shut up, squirt." Said Kimiko.

"Good to have you back, sister." Replied Ayumi.

Kimiko looked at her sarcastically.

"Whatever." She muttered.

"You better go bath now. You're soaking wet like hell." Said Rika.

"Alright, I'm going already…" replied Kimiko.

She was smiling from ear to ear.

"Stop smiling already! You're freaking me out…" said Ayumi.

"Shut up…" replied Kimiko and went to bath.

After bathing, she washed Colt's coat in the washing machine.

"It should be ready by tomorrow…" said Kimiko and went to sleep.
