,,Sam! Sam!"

,,Mr. Frodo! How nice to see you." Sam turned around and saw his friend running up to him. When he had his head full, he liked to go on walks around the Hobbiton and get some fresh air, which cleared his mind and he had a good feeling after. But seeing his favorite person cheered him up even more. He tried to quickly sooth out his clothes with one hand, and the other ran through his golden curls. He always had this self-rule that his head made up that stated, that he always had to look his best in front of Frodo, even though he knew he wouldn't judge him.

,,Just the person I was looking for." said Frodo with a cheeky smile, hugging Sam. ,,Do you have any work today?"

,,Hmm I suppose I don't, why are you asking?"

,,If you wouldn't mind I was thinking that we can go on a little walk down the road?"

,,that would be really lovely." Sam smiled ,,do you have a time in mind?"

,,Weeell if you don't have anything special to do we can go right now."

,,Yup, that could work for me, I'd love to spend time with you."

Frodo tried to hide his rosy cheeks, but failed miserably. He tried to laugh it off by taking Sam's hand and pulling him to the place he had in mind. Everyone in the village knew that Frodo and Sam were the biggest of friends so he figured no one would be suspicious. Or at least he thought.

Sam tried to caught up with him laughing at Frodo's reaction to his flirt comment. He knew Frodo always got frustrated from his comments, but he knew the brunette loved them to bits.

When Frodo finally stopped running they were at the edge of the most gorgeous flower-filled field. Sam was blown away. Apart from gardener, he was a florist from heart and this was beauty itself. He couldn't stop staring, he just stood there admiring every single detail of this place, and wondered how did he had never been here before. As far as he was aware, he knew every flower field or garden in Hobbiton.

,, It's so...fascinating. I don't know a word that could describe such charming sight. It's a heaven on earth for eyes and soul, where even are we?" Sam asked, still in astonishment. Eyes wide open, looking around for a familiar part, so he could at least guess where they were.

,,Before the journey, when I was waiting on Gandalf, I went on walks a lot. One time I found this place and my first thought was, that I need to take you here one day. It's truly unbelievable right? How can mother nature be so beautiful. Like they say ,beautiful things don't ask for attention' this place just draws attention by itself, no need for a sign or anything. I really like it here."

Neither of them realized they were still holding hands. On their adventure it didn't really matter and they did it a lot back then but now...it was somewhat different. But they still liked it. It brought comfort to them and you could at least always know that the other person was around and they couldn't lose them so easily.

,,Can I pick some flowers for you Mr. Frodo?"

,,You could really do that? I would love that!" Excitement filled Frodo's mind, he loved seeing Sam talk about something and look so passionate sometimes even stumbling over his words in an attempt to tell more information that he could possibly get out of his mouth.

,,Of course I would love to!! Look! Here's some Aster. It was named after the greek word for "star" due to its blooms resembling a star and it symbolize love, wisdom, faith, and color." He picked up a couple of flowers, starting a bouquet for Frodo.

,,And here's some lavenders. They symbolize calmness and peace. And there's some white Dahlia flowers! They, are a symbol of devotion, love, beauty and dignity. " he said excitedly. ,,..and they will be a great contrast to the purple here" he mumbled under his breath, rearranging the bouquet with some freshly picked Dahlia's, while Frodo just observed all the information and stared, admiring Sam's knowledge.

,,The chrysanthemum carries the symbolic meaning of devoted love, loyalty, happiness, longevity, and joy. And here they are in every color possible, can you believe it? Even though they are taken as more of an autumn flower aren't they splendid..." His eyes trailing off to a big part of the field, taken by roses of every color. Of course he knew what each meant. So he on purpose aimed for the reddest of them all. He found one so pretty, he felt a little sad disconnecting it from its roots, but it would be the perfect center of attention. So he shamefully picked it up with some nice but a little bit smaller pink roses to soften the dominant red look of the rose. 

,,Ooh and some baby's breath! I love that flower. It kinda completes a bouquet, if you know what I mean." of course picking up the very light baby blue ones, adding it to the other flowers. They indeed gave the bouquet a rather completed look.

Taking a big breath, Sam turned around with one arm behind his back, holding the done bouquet there.

,,Mr. Frodo I made this for you..." blushing a little he showed it in front of him so Frodo could see his genuine gift. He quite liked that Frodo was showing interest in what he was saying and listened because usually people would find it distracting and or annoying and shove him off. Which he found rather hurtful but never said a word. ,,As a thank you for taking me here, listening to all my crap and.." he stopped for a moment rethinking what he would say ,,..because i like being with you and you made my day so much better" he finished shyly, looking down.

,,You did this for...me?" said Frodo in disbelief after a taking a few seconds to process this even though small, still very thoughtful act of kindness from Sam.

,,I love it Sam! It's the most delightful bouquet I've ever seen and I appreciate it deeply. He hugged Sam gripping his gift tightly so it doesn't fall and destroy. Even though Sam with his years of experience skillfully secured it with a grass stalk he still didn't wanna risk it. Mainly when Sam unexpectedly picked him up from the ground (using that he had his hands around Frodo's waist from the hug) just so high that he could spin him around in this adorable moment.

They were happy.

Truly happy.
