Elizabeth woke. The sound of rain splattering against her window shouldn't have woken her, but it did. In the darkness, she rose quietly from her bed and padded softly to the window, gazing over the slumbering city. She didn't usually mind waking up alone, but something about rain over the ocean made always her feel inexplicably sad. As though she were all alone in the world. Not exactly original, she thought wryly, but still true. Elizabeth considered going back to bed, but for now she was content to stand and watch the rain running down her window like falling tears.
