The rain put a damper on her mood, no pun intended. Her green orbs watched the tiny see-through droplets as they went from the grey sky and slammed into the gray concrete, making little circles. She hated to see the rain like this, it was merely awful. It made her hair frizz and everybody else seemed pretty down. Even those that were always happy and cheerful were pretty upset. She leaned against a wall under the coverings of the courtyard.
She loved being here in Russia. Ever since her family moved here she was exstatic. Her dad was originally born here, he even went to this very school. She was the first to attend here in her family (other than her dad of course) and she had to admit she rather loved it. The campus was gorgeous, the town was so cute, and St. Petersburg was an amazing city.
Aria wanted to do something fun in her free time. She squeezed the water out of her shirt and a smirk crossed accross her pale face. She set her bag, books, cell phone, and iPod on the ground. The thin tenth grader ran out into the courtyard, into the rain. She laughed happily to herself. This is what she needed. This is what everybody needed to do, running in the rain is lovely. She skipped and twirled like she was dancing except more silly and less up tight and perfect. She stopped and just lifted her arms to the sky for a moment, as well as her face as the chilly rain droplets fell on her face and soaked her clothing.
She was having the time of her life.

- - - - r e c k l e s s - There was something about rain that this girl just adored. Something about it's cleansing nature, something that felt freeing. And thus, why would so use an umbrella to hide herself from the lovely raindrops? She wouldn't! It didn't matter that she was wearing a long tunic dress in a light grey colour with nothing underneath but her faaancy lacy undergarments. Well, it really didn't matter because the girl hardly noticed. She probably wouldn;t care if she had noticed, but it mattered nonetheless. Rainboots, size six point five (yes, she has very tiny feet), in bright primary colours. She had actually bought them from the children's department during a sale last summer. Anyways, that was what she was wearing as she traversed the campus, coming from a small coffee shop in town. The brew was now diluted with rainwater, which she found to be completely hilarious. It tasted bad, though. Skipping forward, she dumped the container in a trashcan. It missed, and splatted murky looking water all over the clean drenched pavement in the parkinglot of the store. "DAMMIT!" The girl could yell quite loudly, so loudly, in fact, that apparently people could hear her through their closed windows of their cars. Her loud voice drew attention from a few people waiting at a redlight, and when they saw her in her slightly see through clothing, they of course, honked at her. She stuck her tongue out at the lot of them and sloshed back towards campus in her lovely rainboots.
Upon entering the courtyard, the girl noticed that another was enjoying the rain. The carefree expression on the brightly hair coloured youth made Emma smile. Forgetting the coffee incident, she splashed over to her, an equally wide smile on her face. The girl was Aria, and she and Emma had been friend for a while. "Enjoying the rain, Riii?" Emma asked, accidentally drawing her friend's name out in a variant of syllables. There was a touch of Emma's made up english acccent in there too, so she was forced to burst out laughing. Sure, she seemed a little insane, but Aria knew her enough to understand that she was in fact less than normal.

That would be rather uncomfortable later, for she hated walking with wet clothes when she wasn't almost constantly getting wet. She giggled, she loved how the cold liquid felt on her skin, the only thing she didn't enjoy about the rain was seeing it when she was inside. It restricted all of her outdoor activities.
"Enjoying the rain, Riiii?"
Her yellow hair stuck to her face as she turned around to see the person who had spoken to her in the familiar fake-english accent. The grin accross her face spread into a wide smile as she saw her buddy Emma come closer. Of course she was wearing an almost-see through outfit, she proboably had her lacey underwear on too. Yep. She giggled a little bit. Aria had known Emma for about a year now and she considered them pretty decent friends. "Oh you know it Emmms!" She immitated Emma's extra sylable draw-out thing and laughed a little bit. She was feeling rather hyper at the moment, like she always did when Emma was around. And this was considered a good thing.

- - - - r e c k l e s s - Spinning around in a circle, just to add to the effect of her wide grin, Emma giggled when Aria attempted to try her odd accent thing. "Oh you know it Emmms!" Emma plopped down on the ground, thankfully it wasn't muddy on the grass, and looked up at her friend with a childish smile. "Rain looks good on you, darlin'" Since that sounded like she was hitting on her friend, why not make it even more funny. An overenthusiastic wink topped off her compliment, and her childish grin widened. "I'm thinking that we should get the entire tenth and eleventh grade out here to enjoy the rain. Like a party, but with rain." A quick glance towards the building told her otherwise. People were looking out, and looking completely unenthusiastic about the weather. "On second thought, they're lazy bums who don't know how to have fun." Emma looked momentarily stumped for something to do, then her bright green-blue eyes lit up. "I have an excellent idea!" Would it work? Mind whirring, she realized that she had fallen silent as she pondered her 'excellent idea.'
"Lets go swimming!" Well, screw thinking. She might as well get her idea out there so two minds could think about it. Yes, maybe there was a place to swim that Aria knew about. Ri always seemed like she knew the sneaky, secret places that no one ever told Emma about-- because they were afraid that she'd give it away accidentally to too many people. To be quite honest, they were probably right. She probably would tell a bunch of people, then the secret would be ruined. "Know anywhere good?" Bright eyes focused upward back on her friend, who was still standing.

She smiled and watched as some nineth graders walked by with their schedules and then stared in the courtyard at two girls basically dancing in the rain, she laughed a bit.
"Rain looks good on you, darlin'." Emma said and the little wink she added made the perfect 'I'm-hitting-on-you-but-not-really-because-that-would-be-weird' look. She grinned and chuckled a little bit. "Rain makes you look...wet...." She laughed slightly and turned to the doors that lead inside the school. "I'm thinking that we should get the entire tenth and eleventh grade out here to enjoy the rain. Like a party, but with rain." She got excited for a moment and then followed her gaze to some of the tenth and eleventh graders that were very unhappy and mad about the weather. "On second thought, they're lazy bums who don't know how to have fun." Aria couldn't help but nod. "They probably have schoolwork to attend to!" She said that in a very proper, teacher-ish voice.
"I have an excellent idea!" Oh no. An excellent idea? She wanted to laugh, but she didn't. "Let's go swimming!" That wasn't as crazy and reckless as Aria thought, she smiled and nodded excitedly. In her head she began listing all of the places that were near campus that had a pool or even a lake. "Know any place good?"
This was exciting. She thought a minute more, "Well, we could like go break into the Goldov Hotel, or go take a dip in the river." She said sarcastically and looked back at her friends face. She was starting to like the rain.
