Ashley laughed loudly as Alexander grabbed his hand and broke into a run. His prior hesitation had appeared to have been washed away by the rain itself and he followed Alexander intently, still laughing as they raced to shelter. He'd totally forgotten the coldness of the rain as his body aclimatised to the temperature drop - this was much more fun that sitting in the car.
Between breaths, Ashley panted "H-hey-" he breathed inwards again "There it is!" he yelled happily, pointing towards the grotto a few yards in the distance.
