Rain attends the nearby all-girls school, Miss Cobb’s. The narrator and Rain dance very closely at one of their joint dances, until a monitor makes them stop. Just after this, the narrator sees Rain making out with one of his classmates, Jack Broome. Rain then spots the narrator on the train home for Christmas vacation and is excited to see that he’s reading Ayn Rand’s The Fountainhead. Later, she invites him to the final dance of the school year.
