Four days later,
Bucky pulled into her driveway, and he grabbed the purple roses that had white roses that formed an A and purple bear.
She opened the door, "Hey.." he said
"Hi.." she said
"These are for you." He said
She smiled, "James..they are beautiful." She said
"Bucky, you can call me Bucky. Most people do especially when I'm around my friends. Only my family really call me James except my nephews and nieces then it's Uncle Bucky." He said
"Bucky.. why Bucky?" She said as they walked to his truck.
"James is a family name on my dad's side, he's James III and my grandpa is now James Sr but when my great granddaddy was alive he was James Sr and my grandpa was James II. It gets confusing.." he said as he opened the car door for her.
"Thank you." She said as she got in.
They headed to Magnolia Equine for horseback riding, and a picnic/bonfire. They rode horses along the trail as they talked. They stopped on the hill and watched the sunset together before heading to the spot for them to eat.
Bucky surprised her with sparkling apple cider, and purple chocolate covered strawberries. They started up the bonfire, and chatted more. Near the end of the date Bucky scooted closer to her.
He cupped her cheek as he leaned in, and kissed her. She began to kiss back as she cupped his cheek. They both gently pulled away as they smiled. They cleaned up turned in their horses.
"Thank you for tonight Bucky." She said as they walked to his truck.
"You're welcome darlin." He said
He took her home, and walked her to her front door. They shared an another kiss before saying goodnight and agreeing to a second date.
