Author Note: As I said on another of my fics, I pulled another disappearing act, and I am sorry. But I basically haven't had a computer for the last – geez, nearly a week – so I haven't had a chance to type anything up. Sorry. The lovely PetiteShima inspired this, and her story Bring Me To Life also played a hand at inspiring this. If you like ShikiXRima, you need to read that. Trust me. PetiteShima, this one's for you and I hope you like it! This is Rima's point of view.

"It's going to rain." I mumbled as I laid my head on Senri's chest. We were 13, stretched out in my family's backyard/gardens in the dead of the night, and for three hours we hadn't said a word to each other.
"Yeah." Senri pulled my ribbons from my hair and ran his fingers through my orange locks. "We should go inside. I don't want you to catch a cold if we get rained on."
"I'm not the wicked witch of the west, I won't melt if I get wet." I argued, my temper rising in my throat like hot air. "I'm not going to die if I get wet or anything."
"Rima." Senri tried to turn my face towards him, but my temper got the best of me, and I turned my face away, pretending he didn't have my attention. "Rima." He stretched my name out into a handful of syllables. "Rima Touya, look at me."
Just when he thought he was losing, I pinned him to the ground and kissed him.
And then it began to pour like nobody's business.
We both attempted to get up at the same time, which resulted in us being a tangle of limbs on the ground. Luckily, it wasn't muddy yet.
"C'mon!" I tried to sound aggravated as we made a run for the patio doors, hand in hand, but I was laughing too hard to be mad.
Five minutes later, we were sitting on the floor of the grand bathroom, trying to dry off. We were still laughing when Mom peeked her head into the room and raised an eyebrow.
"What's so funny, Rima?" She wasn't mad; she was never mad, just curious. "You two are completely soaked..."
"We're working on that, Mrs. Touya." Senri gave her a small smile and continued drying him – and his clothes – off.
"Right." Mom eyed us for a minute and then went on her way, humming to herself.
"So..." Senri began slowly, and I looked at him.
I was in the process of toweling off my hair, but I looked at him. "Hm?"
"Technically, that was our first kiss." Senri blushed, he hated when he sounded feminine. He always thought of mentioning sentimental things – like a first kiss – was something only girls did. Well, he just proved himself wrong.
I thought back for a moment, pausing with the towel hanging over my head. Sure, we had been together since we were 12, but neither of us had been brave enough to kiss the other on the lips. Lips, noses, cheeks and foreheads were all fair game, but neither of us had kissed the other on the lips.
"It was." I blinked back surprise, trying to keep it off my face.
"So..." Senri got a little smirk to him. "What about a second?"
Author Note: This one is so short. I just wanted to add for everyone who has this on alerts, because I felt bad I pulled another disappearing act right after I promised never again... Anyway, will you drop me a comment? I love hearing from you people! Thank you for reading!
