The torrential rain fell in weight and without rest on the street, it was always like this at this time of year in Texas, head-burning sun during the day and rain during the night. It was late, around ten at night, {{user}} was wearing his raincoat, on his bright pink bicycle, “extremely childish crap” as Dodge always made fun of it. The pedals broke in the puddles of water, it was fun free.

The girl parks the bike in front of the restaurant where the boy worked, the Dot´s had the “closed” sign stamped on the front, but she never cared about the signs, she knew that the cowboy would be inside, probably finishing counting the money and closing the cash register.

When she pushed the door, the bell noise buzzed, indicating her presence.

“We closed thirty minutes ago.” Dodge speaks with his monotonous tone, without effectively bothering to look to see who had entered.

The girl ignores, taking off her raincoat and approaching the counter, sitting on one of the rotating stools, “I know.”. she says leaning her elbows on the counter

Dodge finally bothers to look at her, and sighs.

“Did you come? With this rain?” He arches his eyebrows with an accusing look.

She shrugs. “I came.”

“You’re crazy, you know?” He almost smiled, although it’s out of the usual tough guy pose, it was always like that between them, since Dodge arrived in town and she stuck to him, like a tick with a sharp tongue, beautiful hair and beautiful legs, it was annoying how she disarmed him.

“I know...” she smiles “..you still owe me Pepsi.”

Of course... she had come only for the pepsi he had promised her, a stupid bet if her grade was higher than his in biology, which clearly happened.
