A/N: I don't know if I'll continue this. If you guys think it's any good, I'll write some more, if not, it'll stay a oneshot. It will be a collection of short stories about Meredith's childhood, if I continue. Anyway, review please!
Rain
(Age Six)
Rain, rain, go away.
Come again some other day.
The little girl stares out the window.
Rain is coming down in sheets.
Drumming a steady beat on the roof.
Splattering onto the windows.
She's lonely.
Her mommy is busy.
Mommy's always busy.
Daddy's gone.
She doesn't know where he is.
One day, he just wasn't there anymore.
She asked Mommy what happened to him.
Mommy wouldn't answer her.
She got mad.
Mommy's mad a lot.
She sings to herself.
It's raining, it's pouring.
The old man is snoring.
All the other kids are different.
They all have daddies.
Their mommies are always home.
They bake cookies.
And make dinner every night.
Her mommy doesn't make dinner every night.
Mostnights, she's not even home.
The housekeeper makes dinner.
She tried to talk to her once.
She doesn't speak English.
He fell out of bed, and bumped his head.
And didn't wake up in the morning.
She's lonely.
It's dark out now.
All of a sudden, the rain isn't peaceful.
It's violent.
It holds frightening monsters, created in her mind.
Scared, she runs away from the window.
Tries to cover her ears.
But she can still hear the pounding.
She crawls under the bed.
Where it's safe.
She clutches her stuffed bunny to her.
Maybe Mr. Wabbit will keep her safe.
She hears the thunder.
A whimper escapes her.
She sees the flash of lightning, and she closes her eyes tight.
She lays there for what seems like hours.
Trembling.
And then it's over.
Just like that.
She stays there for a minute.
Just to make sure.
And then she crawls out from her hiding space.
All is clear.
She's okay.
She turns out the light.
Tucks herself in.
And sings herself to sleep.
He fell out of bed, and bumped his head.
And didn't wake up in the morning.
A/N: What do you think? Stupid? Please let me know, thanks!
