They stood in a moment of silence as they made eye contact. It was so cold you could see their breath in the winter air.
"Enola," he started, not breaking eye contact "I've rehearsed this in my head 1000 times yet I simply can't find a way to say this."
Enola stood confused, waiting for him to continue.
"So I'm going to have to say this in easiest way I can." He paused.
"Enola," she gently nodded, not even noticing the rain that started to fall "I am irrevocably, passionately and unconditionally in love with you."
Enola's eyes widened as she stared at the silly boy she had fallen for and been in love with for years who had just admitted to reciprocating those feelings.
"And I think if I loved you less, I'd be able to talk about it more." He said keeping eye contact.
"Jane Austen." She whispered with a smile before she pressed her lips against his.
They weren't sure how long it was that they stood there in the rain, kissing but it sure was moment of pure bliss.
They danced and laughed there in the rain on their way to bus station and when they got their and Enola stood under the small shelter, cold and wet.
"I must go now." Tewky said sadly, "but you'll see me again."
Enola looked down in sorrow and he could not tell if she was crying or if it was simply the rain.
"But here." He took off his bag and pulled out a grey sweater, his favourite one, in fact.
He gave it to her and she held it to her chest and then to her face.
"But this is your favourite-" she was cut off by his arms pulling her into him.
"And so are you." He said quietly before pulling her in for a kiss.
They were sadly interrupted by the bus arriving.
"That's my bus." She said with a sad smile before putting on his sweater and hugging herself and then him.
"I love you too." She whispered into his ear.
She quickly kissed him and got onto her bus, watching him as her bus went down the road.
And he laughed and danced in the rain, absolutely lovestruck.
He came home soaking wet but when his mother asked he just kept the smile on his face and went up to his room and collapsed on his bed before squealing and laughing like a little girl.
