Alessandra felt unable to move as she fixed her gaze on Raine. She felt a happy realization when she snapped back to reality. There was nothing else planned for the rest of the night and she didn't really want to go back home. Sleeping alone could get really sad at times. Then she smiled again as she brushed her hand against his fingertips intentionally. 

"Let's go then, shall we?" Her voice echoed in the air as she started to walk towards the exit door. Outside, she saw the terrified girl. She didn't want to keep calling her the terrified girl though. As Alessandra approached her slowly she felt all of a sudden nervous. She didn't want to appear... too creepy. 

She reached out her hand for a handshake and felt bad that they were so cold. "Hi. I'm a friend of Raine. What's your name? It's nice to meet you. I offered to give you both a ride. And, well... I don't really have any other plans tonight. So maybe we can go somewhere fun." 

After the man ran down the rainy street, she hurried back to the door of the bar. She stood by the entrance of the bar as several patrons were leaving, while others were rummaging through the bag looking for their possessions.

Raine was standing with the woman and they were talking, although she could not make out what they were saying. Soon Raine and the woman walked out the door and she introduced herself as Alessandra. "Pleasure to meet you, my name is Rose" she said sofly. Alessandra had offered to give them a ride, so she was relieved. 

Her blue dress was all wet from the rain and clinging to her body, so she was anxious to get out of the was clothes. Though she was unsure of where Alessandra would bring them.

The rain started to pour down even harder. She grabbed Rose gently by her shoulders and quickly walked her to her car, with the help of Raine and his umbrella. When she touched the handle of the car door it was cold and wet, but she calmly reassured her that she'll bring her to some warmth soon. 

She invited Raine to take the passenger seat. Alessandra was breathing heavily as she tried to blow some warm air into her hands that she cupped around her mouth. "Geez out of all the days," she groaned quietly. 

Not long after, she turned on the engine and headed for the road. 

She was admittedly kind of nervous as she sat in the back seat of the car. Alessandra and Raine were in the front seat of the can and were discussing something in a low tone so she could not hear. Probably discussing where they would be going. She tucked the wet strands of hair that were on her face behind her ears. Her dress was soaked and felt sort of uncomfortable because of it.

 The two in the front seat was leaning close to eachother and whispering. She couldn't help but wonder what they were discussing. She supposed she would soon find out.

The rain kept pounding on the window and the car slowly proceeded down the street. Raine gave her his jacket so she felt less uncomfortable and cold. "Thank you' she said softly, as she slipped the jacket around her shoulders.

"Where were you guys thinking of heading?" she asked the pair in the front seat. "Wherever we go I have to call my uncle and let him know where I am..." she added.

The car continued down many streets and past a few intersections until she finally saw her desired destination in the distance. She was happy to be near the comfort of her own home, but even more happy that she wasn't alone in that very moment. She was amused as well that at some time during the drive her hand began to rest in Raine's palm. Needless to say, it was very relaxing.

After turning off the engine, she unbuckled herself and quickly took a glance at Rose in the back through the rearview mirror. She smiled and said, "...don't worry about it. If you tell him where you are, won't he worry even more? Alone with two strangers you only just met?" 

She was only teasing. But she slightly regretted the words she just spoke out loud. She hoped she had not offended her in any way. Alessandra quickly tried to change the subject as she got out of the car before helping Rose out. "It's cold, dear. Come inside quickly... Raine you too."

Raindrops made quite a relaxing sound effect against the windows. Alessandra waited for Raine and Rose to settle down. Then without another word, she went away to the kitchen to make them a cuppa.

When Alessandra came back out into the living room, she found the pair snuggled up to each other. She felt her shoulders relax at the sight. "Cuppa for you both," she placed two mugs in front of them on the round coffee table before sitting on a nearby single sofa. Then she smiled. It was not everyday that she allowed two strangers into her own home but she was glad that she did.

As she took a sip of her tea, she hid a daring smile. She was thinking about something else now but it was too weird to share. She buried the thought in the back of her mind before moving onto another subject. She raised her chin, biting her lip in curiosity. 

"So, Rose... um, what's your story? Everyone has one."

"Yes, you have a lovely home" blurted out. She couldn't help but feel a bit nervous since like Alessandra had said, they were two strangers, yet she didn't feel as uncomfortable as she would have thought.

"Well, I'm originally from Pittsburgh and am visiting my uncle for a bit. I'm considering moving here in the future", she said with a sheepish grin.
