fifteen

dear cassie,

it rained today.

you loved the rain.

you used to curl up in a blanket and sit by the window with a cup of hot chocolate

I remember when we were sixteen, your parents had that get together to celebrate their 10th anniversary

it was raining that night

the party was in the living room and kitchen, but you were up in your room

when I found you there, you were wrapped in your favourite blanket and sipping hot cocoa while looking out your window

I sat at the edge of the window seat, watching as you smiled at the rain hitting the window

"You're cute"
I blurted out without even thinking.
I was nervous as to what you would say, if you would say anything at all

You just smiled at me and said
" it's about time you noticed"

the thing was, cas, I always noticed

and tonight, when the rain falls down

I'll look up to see only a few stars in the sky

I'll stand at my window with a cup of hot chocolate in my hand

and I'll raise the mug up high

cheers

love, Barry
