So, here it is. The last chapter of my first story, The Rain. I honestly can't believe the support I've gotten from you all. I wasn't expecting anything like this. Thanks for taking this journey with me! You're the best readers ever :D Now that this story is finished, I'm going to continue Blinded and start a new romance story. But my high school is starting soon (I'm really nervous...) so I'm gonna be even more busy than now and won't have much time to write.

I hope you will enjoy this chapter. And one more time, thank you.

"Come on, we're almost there!" Ayumi exclaimed as she dragged Yoshiki out of the bus. It was a beautiful Sunday evening and their official first date had went really well this far. They had gone to the cinema and to that ice cream bar they were supposed to go to about ten days ago… Just a typical date, she guessed. They had talked much, held hands and experienced those cute but awkward moments when they had just stared at each other smiling when they hadn't anything to talk about. It was amazing, but Ayumi wanted more. She wanted to finally kiss him. Well, now it was time for her surprise she had saved for the end of the day. If destiny wanted them to kiss at all, it would be in that place they were going to.

"Where are we going exactly?" Yoshiki laughed and let Ayumi lead him forward on the sidewalk. They were nearly running. He wasn't sure if he had ever seen her that excited. Well, wherever they were going to he was going to enjoy every moment he spent with her. Maybe soon would be a good moment for them to kiss. "You'll see…" Ayumi smiled. Yoshiki thought she was so mysterious in a cute way, and he loved it. After a minute Ayumi slowed down. "Ah, here we are." she said. Yoshiki looked around. They had stopped in front of an entrance to a Japanese garden. There were hardly any people around, the place was pretty outlying. "Let's go, shall we?" Ayumi asked and grabbed his hand again. "Sure." Yoshiki said. "What is this place? I mean… it looks familiar… but I'm sure I haven't been here before." As they walked further on the pathway, passing all the beautiful cherry trees and plants, he really got a weird feeling that he had been there before… or at least seen the place somewhere. However, he hadn't even known that the garden existed. Ayumi looked at him smiling. "Hehe, don't you remember?" Then Yoshiki saw a bridge that was crossing a small stream, which made him remember. Ayumi had shown him a drawing of this exact garden at her place! "Wow... You really made your drawing look real." He was being completely honest. It seemed like Ayumi had managed to put every single detail into her drawing. Only one thing was missing from the picture... A couple kissing on the bridge.

Ayumi led Yoshiki to the bridge. They leaned to the handrail and watched the water flow under them. "Thanks for bringing me here." Yoshiki said "This place is beautiful. Almost as beautiful as… uh… you." He was blushing. "Oh, you…" Ayumi chuckled. Yoshiki's sentence was a bit cheesy, but Ayumi didn't mind. He clearly wasn't the romantic type of guy, but he had shown her his soft and gentle side many times, and she knew he was a good guy. Ayumi liked him just the way he was. She felt Yoshiki slowly grab her hand. As she looked up to him, Yoshiki was staring directly into her eyes. His soft gaze was filled with something deep, she didn't know what it was, but it made her let out a dreamy sigh. She found her heart beating faster as they leaned towards each other and closed her eyes. Something better not disturb them this time... Then, as their lips met, a warm feeling conquered her. She could feel warm sparks of happiness and love in her heart. For the moment she forgot about her surroundings, all her concerns… There was just her and Yoshiki.

Soon as the couple needed to catch their breath they backed away. They stared gently at each other. Ayumi looked astonished and was blushing bright red. Yoshiki was astonished too. That was his first kiss… Hopefully it hadn't gone too bad… And the fact that he got to do it with Ayumi, his long-time crush and current girlfriend… Girlfriend? Yes, they were dating. Yes, they had kissed now. Yes, they loved each other... "Wow…" he managed to let out. Ayumi answered with the biggest smile Yoshiki had ever seen and moved closer to kiss him again. 'I could get used to this…' he thought, moved his hand to stroke her cheek and kissed her back.

The End
