Jimmy had been driving for hours, I thought by now we would be in Tampa. We drove through the main streets and yep we were in Tampa, my home town. The town part of Tampa was were we drove through and it was full of life at this time, the evening had just begun. He drove past that all and kept driving till we were back on the empty roads that only had grass and open land filling each side.

Jimmy veered the car to the side of the road and stopped the car in the grass. He got out of the car and helped me out. He held my hand as we ran across the grass together. At one point I let go of his hand and I raised my arms in the air. I felt so alive, so free, I wasn't chained to all the bad things in my life anymore like I finally broke free from all that drama. We were young, wild, and free. The sunset was setting as we ran around just taking it all in. We were having the time of our lives. I stopped because I was out of breathe and I had the biggest smile on my face as I sat down.

Jimmy had stopped as he was also out of breathe and he sat down on the soft grass next to me . He pulled me closer keeping his arm around me while we watched the sun set slowly.

"Don't you just love the sunset?." He asked.

"Yeah, it's so beautiful, mesmerizing almost. When I was little I used to watch the sunsets with...um never mind I don't wanna talk about it." I said looking slightly away ignoring the fact that my father and I used to look at the sunset when I was little and when he was actually sober.

"Well who ever it was, it doesn't matter because now I get to watch them with you." Jimmy said giving me a smirk and cupping my face.

"And your the only one I want to be watching them with. I wish it could just be us, never ending sunsets only with you..." I said leaning in closer but not close enough to touch his lips.

He leaned in and our lips touched, it was like the whole world around us stopped. I played with the hair on the back of his neck as I pulled him closer. I could feel him smile against my lips. I pulled away and bit my lip as I looked into his golden brown eyes. In that moment when I kissed him and the sky was turning just about dark and the stars were peaking out that's when I knew I loved him. I know it was only a couple of days that we had been together but it felt like we have known each other for years. So what I didn't know much about his past and neither did he know about mine and yeah I had my vulnerable moments but the person to catch me when I was falling was always Jimmy.

"Come along now darling, as much as I would love to stay here all night just with you we have to get back. Its getting dark and we gotta go looking for the clown." He said as he got up and brushed off his pants.

He helped me up lending his hand to and we got back into his red beat up convertible. He made a wide u-turn and we drove off back to Jupiter.
