Raining... (leave me a note's challenge)

“Oh and just so you know, Nate is my boyfriend. He doesn’t like you. He never will!” I listened to the voicemail for the fifth time. I just couldn’t believe Jen would be this mean. I mean, we were friends, years ago. Then Ben and her started dating. Then…long story. Then this. This ten minute long voicemail I just couldn’t believe. I sighed. God whatever happened to us? It was so great… I stared out into the rain. It was really pouring. I walked over to my bed and lyed down. I shut my eyes then….thump My eyes shot open. I looked at the clock. 4:13 am. I had fallen asleep. I looked out my window to where the sound had come from. It was still raining out. But I saw a figure out in the rain. So I opened the window. “Nate?” I smiled. So did he. I grabbed my sweatshirt and ran down my stairs and out my porch, into the street below. I didn’t even know what to say. “Hey.” And we just looked at each other for what seemed to be hours. I just smiled. I couldn’t wait to leave Jen a voicemail.
