The one day she\u2019d decided to walk to school, the weather had freakishly decided to turn in the middle of the day and bucket down with rain. She reached her front yard when she saw her red haired friend sitting on the doorstep in tears. \u201cSummer? Sweetie, what\u2019s wrong?\u201d She ran over to her and embraced her in a hug, pulling the girl\u2019s head into her shoulder to try and comfort her.

It felt like it took forever; like building a sand castle in the tide zone. Finally the shakes began to slow, and she sobbed out her relief in Erica&#8217;s arms.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>badassbetaerica: iamthefirechild: badassbetaerica: badassbetaerica: Send me a &#8221; \u25cb &#8221; for my character&#8217;s reaction to finding yours sitting outside in the rain, upset and crying Erica was wet and cold.
