Mark's povIt's almost 4 a. m. when we got to my father's farm.
It's still night but Sarah insists on going to see the horse I gave her when she turned 16.
- Pleaseeee! I just want to see how the Thunder is. I haven't seen him since last week.- She begs
What was I waiting for? I could never tell her "no"
- Okay, but we have to be quick because you already know that my father doesn't like us being in the stable at night.
- I never understood why. But okay, let's be quick - She gets out of the jeep and starts running to the stable like a crazy girl
I also get out of the car and, without realizing it, I smile
- You're not coming? I think I get it, you are not in shape like me, right? - She screams from afar and raises her arm at 90 degrees to show her muscles (which ones she doesn't have)
I start running after her and she runs away screaming
Insane... This girl is insane

I get to the stable with her on my shoulder, but she jumps straight to the ground and runs towards the Thunder
- Mark! He's sleeping! - she whispers
- Fine, now that you saw that he's okay, let's go, I want to show you something
- OK....
When we arrive at the place, the sun starts to rise which is perfect
- It's so beautiful here! Why didn't you show me this before? - she asks
- I don't know, maybe I didn't remember.
- You're such an idiot
I grab her around the waist and tickle her, as I expected she starts laughing like a crazy
I take the backpack I brought and take out a blanket and some cookies
- Are you hungry? - I ask her even though I already know her answer
- Yes sir! You know I'm always hungry
She takes the cookies out of my hand and I start to spread the blanket on the grass
- What is this? A date? - she asks funny and starts to laugh
.....
I stay quiet
.....She looks at me with a questioning look when she realizes I still haven't answered
- No no of course not haha - I answer finally
We lay down on the blanket and stared at the sky.
She lays her head on my chest
And I just think: Sarah, if you don't want this to look like a date, don't make it so.
You'll only mess up my feelings even more
- Mark?
- Hmm
- I noticed your eyes.... - Oh no, not again please - You have to be able to stop it
- I'm trying
-.... please..... - I can tell from her voice that she started crying and that's all I hate
I get up, making her sit between my legs and lean her head against my chest
- Listen to me, sweet. I'll stop but you know it's a slow ride. But the first step right now is for you to stop crying, okay?
I run my hands over her cheeks and wipe her tears
- Now let's enjoy the sunrise.
She lies down on top of me
Again
