He opens his window and motions for me to open mine. When I do, he tries to say something. His voice barely carries through the sound of the rain coming down hard between us.<br /><br />I lean out the car window. "What?" <br /><br />He leans out his window, meeting me halfway. We're both wet and soaked, but neither of us seems to care. "Don't run away from me when I need to tell you somethin' important."<br /><br />"What?" I say, hoping he doesn't notice the tears running down my face, and praying they're getting mixed up with the rain. <br /><br />"Tonight was . . . well, it was perfect for me, too. You've turned my world upside down. I've fallen in love with you, chica, and it scares the fuckin' shit outta me. I've been shakin' all night, because I knew it. I've tried to deny it, to make you think I wanted you as a fake girlfriend, but that was a lie." <br /><br />"I love you, Kiara," he says before his lips move forward and meet mine.
