We kiss, the rain falling hard all around us. I laugh when we pull apart.
“I’ve always liked you,” I say. “I just…I didn’t think you’d want me back.”
He kisses me again. Then he grabs the takeout from my hand and takes my other hand into his.
“We’re going to drown out here,” he says.
“Come on,” I say, laughing. “Let’s go to my place.”
