The ticket stand stood tall with a cover above it reading "Bucket's Sunflowers." The person standing in the ticket stand smiled warmly at Sage and I.

I watched Sage nervously as he asked for two tickets, wondering why he was so superstitious a few minutes ago.

He held out the tickets for me to hold, "You ready?," he questioned grinning at me like nothing happened. I nodded silently as he proceeded to softly tap my fingers before grabbing my hand.

We walked towards a man with a tall complexion, "Hello welcome to Bucket's Sunflowers!, I am Bucket and I will take your tickets please!," the man explained enthusiastically and I handed him the tickets. He punched a hole in them and gave them back to us so we could keep them. I gave Sage one and slipped mine into my back pocket, right after i felt something touch my left back pocket causing me to jump as Sage giggled, right after he slid his muscular hand into my left pocket shocking me.

We walked into the entrance of the field, the yellow yelling at us at every angle, I felt short compared to the sunflowers reaching higher then 6ft tall.

Sage reaches up to touch one slowly caressing one of the petals before plucking it of it's home and placing it behind my ear, which caused me to blush, "You're stunning," Sage explained holding up my chin so I would make eye contact.

My face started to steam even harder and my heart was thumping out of my chest, he leaned his face closer to mine I let my lips lose but before he could get any closer he slowly breathes and backs down releasing my face.

I craved feeling his lips against mine more then ever now but before i could put too much thought into it he gripped my hand and ran through the field as a dragged behind him trying to keep up. We were in the middle of the field, it was empty, nothing but grass and a few daisies.

He pulled me down on the ground next to him as we lie down watching the clouds pass by, it was silent for what felt like forever. I felt his hand grip my arm and before I knew it Sage pulled me on top of him we both giggled. I wrapped my arms around him as he played with my hair, I could've laid there forever. My eyes slowly started to fade as the sun shinned on us restlessly.

It was 5:45pm, the sunflower field was about to close as Sage repped up his soothing engine, "I had an amazing day," I said softly, "I'm glad you did," he examined my face and I smiled tiredly. "Let's get you home," Sage giggled.

The cars around us zoomed by so fast all i saw were blurs of color. Sage sat there motionless like we weren't going 100mph; "Sage why are we going so fast?!," I questioned freaking out, I check his speed and he is going 175mph.

He didn't answer, he tapped his finger on the steering wheel still staring out the window, "Sage release the gas please!," I pleaded and I felt the car slow down a little, "Amara we weren't even going that fast," he assured me but i felt shook to my core.

"You were going 175, tell me that's not fast?!" He looks at me and grips the wheel, "You wanna see fast?," he questioned with a smirk. I shook my head desperately, already feeling sick.

I hear *zoom* as he puts all his pressure on the pedal and i'm grasping for anything to keep me from flying backwards or forwards. I look over, blurred vision, Sage has a huge smile from his adrenaline.

I couldn't help but feel relieved for a minute before I check his speed, he was going 350 mph and I went back to panicking. I felt my stomach churning in every which way and Sage looks over and must have realized I was feeling uneasy so he slowed back to 50 mph, "I'm sorry," he exclaims with slight concern on his face. I couldn't spit out any words so I just nodded and smiled.

The car comes to a stop and I feel a warm hand shake my shoulder, "Ama," Sage says with his warm soothing voice. "Hm?," I questioned as I slowly start to open my eyes, "We're at your house," I open my eyes to see him staring at me and we make eye contact which last five times longer than it usually does. His lips were calling my name, it was something I craved. He backed up, but I could see the temptation rising.

"Goodbye Amara," "Goodbye Sage," I shut his car door carefully before taking a deep breath. My heart was pounding a thousand miles a minute. The time was 7:15pm now, and the moon was shining as bright as I was.

I go to unlock the door to my house but for some reason it was already unlocked? I thought i might have just forgot to lock it so I didn't panic too much.

"I wonder when she is gonna be home," I hear a distance voice from the inside and I knew that voice from anywhere. I open the door with excitement. "Ahhh hiiii!!, I've missed you so much!!," the warm familiar figure hugs me and I can't help but feel comforted by her perfume grasping my senses.
