30. Under the Rain

Reno smiled, looking up at the sky. It was Promotion….and he was a Turk now. Nobody could tell him where to go. The first thing he'd done with his new keycard was go up to the roof.

He'd wanted to see the sky. Spending your life under a roof was not the way to go, and he knew that when he'd been recruited by the Turks. So, he'd made his goal to see the sky his driving force. He saw it now, lying on his back, rain pouring down. He was grateful for it really… it hid his tears of absolute joy, and sunlight probably would have burned.

"You okay?" a deep voice asked, and Reno started, looking up at the bald man they has assigned to be his partner.

"Fuckin' epic yo." he'd said back, smile so ridiculous that the man, Rude had arched his eyebrow. "I've never seen the sky." was his only apology, and Rude had smiled, sitting beside him. The two sat in the rain, just staring at the roiling clouds.

When they went inside, soaked to the bone, they knew. And all it took was a summer rain to cement their fate.

This one….I didn't want a cliché, so this popped out like a bad m-preg baby. Meh.

R&R to make me cry with happiness!!!!
