Rain

Day 1: Red Rain

"Holy crap!" Those were my words of choice when I saw a red head knocked out by the side of the road. The night began normally enough. I was driving back to the motel room I rented after a weekly dinner I had at home with my mom and little sister. It wasn't until I saw a naked woman on the side of the free-way and beneath an overpass, her bright red hair reflecting my high-beams, when things quickly began to take a turn for the weird. I began to breathe deeply as I thought of what could have possibly placed her there. Most of them weren't things I liked to think about, but it didn't matter. She needed help.

I quickly pulled over, probably faster than I should have, and walked back to where the woman was lying down. She was beautiful, although I tried not to stare. “Sweet Jesus,” I mumbled to myself, trying not to take in the scenery. Being a perv was something I generally tried not to be. It was cold that night, and I didn't know the directions to the nearest hospital, so I chose to do something most people of a lower moral compass would have loved to do with an attractive and unconscious woman: I elected to take her to my motel room. I slowly approached her as though she were a deer, just to make sure not to wake her up. I honestly had no clue on hell what was going on. Her eyes struggled to open, but quickly fluttered closed. She was totally out of it. I sighed. This was going to be an interesting week for sure.

I took off my black leather jacket and placed it over her, being sure not to grab ANYTHING as I did so. Her eyes were an interesting color. Even in the darkness of that cold October night, I could see a vague violet in the irises. I very carefully placed my arms around her, maintaining a no groping policy and lifted her from the wet and cold grass. She was kind of heavy, but then I wasn't that strong. It took me a moment to gain some good footing, but after a few seconds I got everything balanced out and I took her to my car.

I opened the door to my blue saturn and placed her in the passenger seat, sure to buckle her up. I made my way back to the driver’s seat and started the engine. She stirred a little bit, but nothing too major.

The trip back to my room at the local Motel 6 went smoothly enough. Anyone who took a look at her in my car probably just though we were a couple on a road trip or something like that. What was really difficult was making sure nobody thought I was going to be doing something distasteful to the poor girl when they saw me taking her out of my car in the parking lot. I figured that it would better if I unlocked the door and then carried her in. As it turned out, I had nothing to worry about. There was no one around except for who was working there, and THAT guy was busy reading a magazine. As I scooped the sleeping red-head out of the car seat, I decided, even if she was knocked out, it might be a good idea to at least ask what her name was. So I did. "You got a name, Red?"

She didn't do much except breath, but it looked like I was gonna get at least that much out of her. She moved only a little bit as she mumbled something. "Rain..." she answered, mumbling more of what I assumed was her last name, or at least I thought she did. If it was her name, then it was sure as hell a pretty name. Then I looked at a set of new problems I had to contend with. There was only one bed in my home. Well, it wasn't really a problem per se. The choice of who got what was obvious. I laid her on my bed and did my best not admire anything, but I did notice that she was tall for a woman. In fact, she seemed to be close to my own six feet.

I went over to my drawers to see if there was anything that I could give her to wear so she wouldn't have to walk around naked. I found some old, blue, flannel PJ bottoms that wouldn't be too difficult to fit on her, and then one of my larger plain white t-shirts. "That'll do." I went over to her and felt all my blood rush to my face as I realized exactly what I had been tasked with. I gulped and decided that it would just be best if I tried not to look at or grab at her body. It wasn't easy, by any means, but in about three minutes, there was a clothed red head laying on my bed.

"Not bad, Miles. Not bad at all." At that point, I honestly wasn't sure whether I was talking about the girl or the job I did dressing her, so I just settled for somewhere in the middle and took a shower. I tried to make it cold, for obvious reasons, and it did work. I took as long in there as I wanted, my home being a motel and all, and considered what was going to happen now that I met the mystery woman. This was insane. A red head comes out of nowhere and into the side of the road, and here I was, finding her on the side of the road and giving her a place to stay. This was like something out of a bad fanfic. And trust me, I've read my share of bad fanics.

As I got out of the shower, sure to change in the bathroom just in case, I realized that I finally had a chance to take it all in. My heart raced as I wondered what would happen tomorrow, but in the end, I just decided to get some sleep. Grabbed a spare blanket and hit the chair. Taking one last look at the guest in my room, I said one last thing before I went to sleep. "This is crazy."

This was interesting, heh, liked and faved in hopes of an continuation.

Based loosely on MLD, hm, wonder where this will go :o

Anyways, can't say too much yet I guess, but, the fic moved along fluently, and I personally don't have anything to point out atm, so, well.
Thanks for putting this up for everyone to enjoy, and good luck with your next project, whether it'll be continuing this or something else

[Commando-Scarecrow]

Honestly, this was just an experiment to see how well I could depart from the usual adventure fanfcs I write. Now that I know I can do alright in this style, you'll definitely see more chapters on this.
