"Nation A [Cuba] finds Nation B [Canada] sitting outside in a torential downpour, thoroughly depressed and convinced that no one likes him. A takes B home and takes care of him with dry clothes, blankets, hot chocolate, cuddling, etc. and proves to him that someone, namely A, does love him."
At least 2nd fill. And, yes, anon is the queen of unimaginative titles.By late evening, the steady drizzle had escalated into a dark, heavy rain. Cuba sat by his window, sipping coffee as he watched the rain tear up the dirt road into a murky soup. Cuba liked a rain like this, when it was enough to break the heat, but not enough to constitute a potentially disastrous storm.
