C.

It was dark

It was wet.

My shirt was tight

My underwear short

My flip-flops covered in the aftermath of rainfall.

Your dress was scattered

Your hair pulled back

A heart and star on your ear.

I sat on the dryer 

And thought of him.

I think you might have been thinking about him

Too.

I pretended I was happy

You pretended you weren't sad

We pretended that everything was going to be okay.

Rain started to rap on the ceiling

We got onto the bed

And our legs intertwined.

Maybe I wasn't happy.

Maybe you were sad.

Maybe everything wasn't going to be okay.

But then

There

Things felt good.

We took a picture.

This is what happens when it rains.
