It was 2:59 pm and as the bell rang, the school day had finally ended. Wirt knew he was supposed to go with Sara to her garden, she'd invited him last time that she came over, but Wirt was melting at the thought of spending so much time with Sara all alone, just the two of them. He was totally going to mess up somehow so he decided to just go home and disappoint Sara. He was already regretting his decision a little bit when suddenly someone touched him on the shoulder, he turned around with a surprised look written over his face which turned into a ''I wish i could disappear'' look when he noticed who had stopped him. It was Sara, how embarrassing.. ''Hey Wirt!'' She breathed since she'd ran all the way over to him. ''Shall we go to my garden?'' Wirt turned away and lowered his pace so Sara ended up walking next to him. ''U-uhm yeah! Totally!- I just- I couldn't find you and-'' His stuttering turned into a faint, embarrassed laugh. When Sara had asked him to come over to her garden she had given him a small peck on his cheek, it might not have seemed like much to other people like Greg who'd even encouraged Wirt to kiss Sara, but his face heated up just thinking about it.
With that they started walking towards.. wherever Sara's garden even was. They didn't speak to each other, mainly because Sara was focused on leading the way and because Wirt was too afraid to make any small talk. He kept his face focused on the ground and took a small glimpse of her once in a while, she would catch him staring and smile awkwardly as he quickly returned to watch the oh so interesting stone tiles of the pavement. When he was about to take another look at Sara he clumsily tripped over a pebble causing him to let out a small squeak and causing Sara to grab him so he wouldn't fall. He looked at Sara and quickly looked at the ground once more, a little blush forming on both their faces while Sara let go of him and began walking again. He had to say something, thank her maybe? Or was that too formal?.. Stupid pebble. ''Thanks for uh- yeah- thanks..'' He smiled and returned to watching his feet carry him. ''No problem love!'' She jokingly said, causing Wirt to have a little heart attack.
''Hey Wirt, something fell out of your pocket just now-'' Sara exclaimed as she picked what looked like a crumpled up piece of paper up from the pavement. Wirt blushed as he played with his hands, a little nervous, knowing what it was. ''Can I look at it?'' Wirt finally looked up and nodded, afraid to mess up his speech. Sara straightened out the piece of paper, it was a drawing, infact.. it was Greg's drawing! Wirt looked surprised but didn't say anything and took the drawing from Sara. ''H-he must've put his drawing in my pocket-'' He looked relieved for some reason.
After a long walk without much talking they thankfully arrived at Sara's garden. As Wirt entered his eyes widened, there were a bunch of flowers, plants and bugs in the yard, even a lake which looked to be having fish in it. ''Do you like it?'' Sara came into the garden as well and closed the pretty gate. ''It's wonderful! Y-you know, this is a very good spot for.. uh stargazing.'' Wirt blurted out, he awkwardly put his arm behind his head and grinned. ''We can do that if you want! We've got the whole day to spend after all.'' Sara smiled and grabbed Wirts hand, leading him to her flowers. Wirt was starting to feel a little more confident, he hadn't messed up his last sentence that much and now Sara was holding his hand.
Sara sat Wirt down on a picnic blanket in the middle of all the beautiful flowers, he kept looking around and eventually spotted Sara picking a small bouquet before sitting down next to him. ''Why the flowers?..'' Wirt asked as he took the small bouquet Sara had just picked. ''I thought maybe we could make flower crowns for each other!'' She looked at Wirt who was kind of staring at her blankly before realizing and quickly looking at the flowers, slightly fidgeting with his hands.''We can do something else if you-'' ''NO- nO uh-'.. I-I'd like that..'' He smiled and looked at the flowers she had given to him. ''Sara, what is your.. favorite color?'' Sara smiled brightly, happy that Wirt was talking to her more. ''I like yellow.'' she grinned. Wirt took a few yellow flowers from the bouquet and started on the flower crown. ''W-what color are you going to do.. mine?'' He asked quiet. Sara picked a few dark blue flowers and put them next to her. ''You liked these flowers right?'' ''Mhm'' Wirt nodded as he was drawn to the marine blue flowers. ''Already!'' She started on her flower crown as well.
After a long yet comfortable silence they had both finished their flower crowns. ''I didn't know you knew how to make flower crowns!'' Sara said surprised as she took the flower crown Wirt had made for her and put it on her head. ''I was actually hoping to teach you like when I helped you with drawing.'' She smirked by seeing Wirts face heat up. ''O-oh well- I-I mean..uHm..'' Wirt quickly stopped himself from saying anything more as Sara put the dark blue flower crown on Wirts head while snickering. ''You look.. g-great!'' He exclaimed, immediately regretting his decision. ''You look great too!'' Sara laughed.
Wirt blushed a little when he suddenly thought about something, he'd almost forgotten.
He reached out for his pocket and took out a crumpled up piece of paper, it looked kind of like the one he'd almost lost earlier. ''So uhm..-'' he cleared his throat while straightening the paper a little, his hands shaky. ''I wasn't going to give you this.. y-yet.. but I-I thought.. you-you know.. ''just do it Wirt''- and uhm-'' He quickly shut up and gave Sara the paper looking away as if to avoid rejection.
The paper read the following:
A red rose.
Oh, my Love is like a red, red rose
That's newly sprung in June;
Oh my Love is like the melody
That's sweetly played in tune.
So fair art thou, my bonnie lass,
So deep in love am I;
And I will love thee still, my dear,
Until all the seas gang dry.
Until all the seas gang dry, my dear,
And the rocks melt with the sun;
I will love thee still, my dear,
While the sands of life shall run.
And fare thee weel, my only love!
And fare thee weel awhile!
And I will come again, my love,
Though it were ten thousand mile.
Sara's eyes lit up more by reading each word. ''Wow Wirt it's-'' ''terrible- I-I'm terribly sorry I-I should uhm.. go!-'' Wirt was ready to stand up and walk out of there as quickly as possible but Sara grabbed his hand, forcing him to sit back down. She didn't let go of Wirts hand, in fact she tightened the grip causing Wirt to look at her. He noticed she kept coming closer and closer, only a few inches separating their heads. ''w-wh uhm-'' before Wirt could finish his sentence which would likely still be unfinished if he got the chance to speak Sara gave him a small peck on the lips. She pulled away quickly, making sure that she hadn't made Wirt uncomfortable in any way or form. Wirt was a hot mess, even his hat looked more crooked than usual. He was practically melting as he stared blankly at her, not knowing what to do, he left it at nothing.
The evening wind brushed against their hair as Sara and Wirt returned to Wirts home. Sara offered to bring him home and Wirt could only nod, he was too surprised and embarrassed to let anything out of his mouth. They walked up to Wirts house, Wirt had only noticed just now that Sara had been holding his hand this entire time, his hands were very sweaty but when he tried to let go she wouldn't let him.
Greg ran up to them as he'd seen them walk up to the house from the window. He had patiently waited but that patience was gone now. ''Hey Sara! Hey Wirt!'' Sara and Wirt both answered at the same time, Sara answering with ''sup.'' while Wirt answered with a ''mHh'', voice crack and all. ''It was nice seeing you Wirt! Maybe we can go stargazing next time.'' She giggled, Wirt smiled yet he looked very embarrassed. ''Well see you tomorrow!'' She waved and gave Wirt a small wink before taking off. ''..Sa yee- S-See ya!'' He awkwardly said as he walked into his house.
''How'd it go?! How'd it go?!'' Greg yanked on Wirts jumper curious. Wirt didn't give much of a reaction until he heard the comment; ''Did you kiss her?'' pop up in the sea of questions. He murmured a bunch of stuttering stuff under his breath. ''nO- wellyesbut no but- uHm-''
