It was raining.

The soft sound of water tapping on the window was making Yor sleepy. It always happened. He 'd caught her dozing off on the couch many times before. Later, when they started sharing a room, he observed that she fell asleep faster whenever it rained.

Usually, she wouldn 't fight it and let herself fall asleep, but tonight, she wanted to stay awake.

'Go to sleep, my love. I know you 're tired, ' he told her while holding her in bed.

They were both quite sweaty and exhausted after trying to

compensate

for their time apart a few times that night.

'No, I don 't want to go to sleep, ' she answered holding onto him tighter. 'I don 't want to wake up and realize I was just dreaming. '

'I 'll be right here when you wake up, ' he kissed the top of her head.

'Promise? '

'I promise I won 't let go, ' he covered her with the blanket before resuming holding her.
