Oliver can enjoy the rain, he’s lived on an island that does nearly nothing else his entire life and if he hasn’t come to terms with the weather by now than he has some serious issues that he needs to deal with. But a wild grin breaks across his features as he watches Rachel take tentative steps down the stone steps and sloshing onto the gravel trail with a grimace on her face.
“What?” Oliver can’t help but tease, “You’re not afraid of a little water are you?”
“Hey,” Rachel admonishes, “there are only three kinds of wet that I like, and cold-ass English rain is not one of them.”
Oliver rolls his eyes at her stubbornness, “well, which do you prefer, aside from our dreary Scottish weather,” he corrects.
“Hot bath water wet and salty ocean water wet,” she states moving precariously around a puddle and the soaked ground.
Oliver watches her with a funny grin, “and what’s the third?”
Rachel’s face shoots up to look at him devilishly before splashing him with muddy puddle water and racing back towards the safety of the stairs, “Come get me, maybe you’ll find out!” she challenges him before racing indoors.
Oliver’s breath doesn’t catch in his throat, because he isn’t all that surprised by this, but he knows that he’s not sure if he’s willing to take that risk.
