It was April, the month of rain coming into Japan.

Outside underneathe the school roof was none other than Karmen Akabane.

She got caught by a certain black-haired male teacher that could get on anyone nerves if the student did something that trouble the teachers in the first place. And being lecture for half an hour was enough time for the clouds to storm into the sky above the school grounds.

Wearing her usual attire for school of a white button sleeve shirt, a black sweater over it with the sleeves rolled up to her elbows along with her inner layer shirt, a gray skirt down to her mid-thighs, a pair of black spandex underneathe, black loafer with ankle white socks.

She was standing outside siting on the step of the entrance of her school. Waiting and watching the rain drop pouring down to the earth heavily.

'I want to go home already...' She thought bored to herself.

She look at her school bag that is similar to a suitcase.

'Maybe...' She thought of a plan of using her bag as a very small shield against the weather.

But then she remembers the material wouldn't shield herself and stay dry itself very long with the amount and speed rate the rain was crashing down to. Also she have important schoolwork she couldn't afford to get wet.

'That won't work...unless.' She then had another plan that could possibly help her with first one.

Looking down on her black sweater.

'Let's give this a shot.' The redhead prepare herself by getting off her seat on the front steps, standing straight.

She took a deep breath and grab the front of her top and begin removing it over her head. And then she grabbed her bag off the ground and wrap the sweater round the bag and tied the sleeves into a knot.

Now she have a slightly better but weak protection for her body and school bag.

It doesn't look like it'll make the plan better, but what else could she do? There was no umbrellas anywhere and the students already left and with clear evidence no one left an umbrella behind.

'I just gotta run really fast before the water can hit me.' She closed her eyes for a couple of seconds before she could take the first fees step leaving her current shelter.

"Karmen-chan!" A voice stop her plans, and she was half thankful for the interference.

Turning around to find her tall black-hair guy friend named Mano Okuda. Wearing a white quarter sleeve shirt with a green sweater over it, simple blue jeans, and his usual black and white nike shoes.

Also holding an umbrella in one hand and his own school bag in the other.

They're both surprise of a coincidence encounter.

"I had to stay to help out our science teacher clean up a chemical accident and put away all the chemistry equipment." He explain his reason for staying.

"What made you stay here?" He asked still surprise.

"Mother Nature crying because she doesn't want me to leave." Answer in a teasing cool manner with a smirk on her lips as she points the obviousness of the weather with her finger.

The boy can only smile knowing the true reason as he walk to his short friend's side.

"Mr. Saeki caught you again." He stated instead of asking as he was getting the umbrella's fabric to flatten.

"The one and only worst teacher in this school."

Making both of them have a small share of laughter.

Mano held the umbrella up over his head and was still standing underneathe the school roof.

Karmen saw it and immediately walk over to be next to him.

And they both left the building with the small shelter he provided.

They're on their way home with the transparent fabric umbrella Mano have, with some space between them as they're walking.

"I'm surprise you didn't push me away," Karmen joking around. "I hope I'm not invading your space."

He chuckled at her usual teasing.

"Well I was gonna offer anyway after seeing your school bag." He replies grinning and his eyes moving from Karmen's Mercury eyes to her school bag still wrapped with her black top.

Right now she have her white shirt with the sleeves unrolled to her wrists.

"You finally notice this." She tease again as she raise her school bag to her head.

"I have," he reply nonchalantly. "I chose not to question your plans."

"Is that so." She chuckles.

During their walk was a comfortable silent as they hear the multiples tapping of rain drops against their mini fabricated shelter.

And then Karmen turn her head to her friend.

"So anyway, Okuda," she begin asking something she wanted to for a while. "Do you have any pla—!"

She couldn't finish her question when she felt an arm (along with a school bag slapping her side) wrapped around her shoulder and pull her close to Mano's chest.

It was so sudden as they stay in that position of Mano hugging Karmen with one arm and the other still holding the umbrella that's being tilted.

Karmen heart stopped for a millisecond as her face was being shoved into Mano's shirt. Her eye widen and her mind racing (and soon her heart) asking what became of this. And out of reflex she wrapped her arms around her torso.

They stay that way for a couple of minutes until he parted from the half hug, straightening his back and the umbrella that was still tilted slightly while her arms fell to her sides.

"A truck came by and I quickly notice a huge puddle beside us before the driver drove pass us. And don't get the wrong idea, I noticed you have a white shirt on, and it'll suck if you got soaking wet." He explain his action with having to lift his hand with his bag, moving one finger from the school bag handle to scratch his cheek in awkwardness, and the tiniest of blush goes unnoticed.

Karmen then found herself gazing and finding the truck stop due to a red light up ahead.

"O-okay then. It's cool."

"Thank goodness." He said relieved and give the girl a giddish grin.

And they continue on their walk.

As time felt like it was going slow.

Karmen look up to her friend who was looking straight forward in his view and the blush was already gone even though neither of them noticed it.

Blushing slightly as the memory of him suddenly hugging came to her mind that was not too long ago.

As she continuing looking up to him, she notice something not right.

The umbrella wasn't fully hovering over its owner.

She examine the rest of the clear frabric to find majority of the shelter covering her the most.

Also another thing that didn't escape her vision.

part of his glasses was hanging droplets on the rim and glass, his shoulder and hair was getting slightly wet when she lean back to look from behind while Mano was still looking forward.

She pouted at his kindness and the treatment she was getting. She felt it wasn't right for her.

She did what she thought would think it's embarrassing to do.

"W-what are you doing?!" Mano yelled at her looking down.

She closed the space they had and hook her arm from under his arm that held the umbrella. Somewhat pushing him and almost made him lose his balance, but change the position of the umbrella straight, covering both of them.

"You're too nice," she claim a fact about the boy. "Even to someone like me."

"H-hah?" He was so confuse right now. First an unexpected half-tackle from the redhead, and then a compliment out of the blues.

He was about to shake her off his arm, but he felt a weight leaning against his shoulder.

He kept looking down at her to find the redhead leaning and resting her head.

"Uh...Karmen..." He left his sentence unfinished without the honorifics to finish it when he saw the expression on her face.

She have her eyes close revealing her dark brown lashes contrast her silk skin and a gentle genuine smile stretch on her lips. Her arm were still hook around his arm but they relax than earlier when she implied her earlier action and the other one was playfully swinging her bag with very little movement.

This is the first time he witness such a beautiful expression.

He sighed and decided not to shake the girl, smiling tenderly at her. And turning away to continue looking ahead, the smile never left his face.

For some reason. As much as he hate the rain because of the cold.

He felt warm and comfortable about their current situation.

Continuing their regular journey home as they still have a somewhat long way to go, that he kinda wish it would never end.

How was that?! 〜(￣▽￣〜)
