Singin’ in the Rain: How the Song Was Spun (Five Sentence Fiction)

Looking at the picture makes me realize how important lover’s words can be, especially in a romantic situation like being out in the rain together…

Lillie McFerrin posts a “Five Sentence Fiction” prompt.
This week it is: Rain

from Lillie McFerrin Writes

 
Gene and Debbie Romance the Rain and Are Happy Again
 
What are you doing out here in the rain, Debbie?
 
Oh, Gene, I’m happy and laughin’ at the clouds, because even though it’s so dark above, the sun’s in my heart and I’m ready for love.
 
Then Debbie, let these stormy clouds chase everyone from the place, and I say, come on rain, ’cause I got a smile on my face.
 
Oh Gene, let’s walk down the lane.
 
Yes Debbie, with this happy refrain: Just singin’, singin’ in the rain.
