The Inevitable
Part 3
The weather began growing colder as it forced the leaves to fall from the trees and the morning dew to freeze, leaving a sheet of frost on the ground. On this day Sam woke up early, bundled himself up and went out for a walk. He needed more time to be alone and gather his thoughts. Even though everything in nature seemed to be dying, there were still little traces of beauty to be found. Like the frost glittering in the sun just before it melts. Nature all around him was breathtaking and he began falling in love with Hidden Springs all over again.
Just as Sam was heading on his way back home he noticed a large, stunningly shaped and colored bird pecking at the ground. He'd never seen a creature like it before and crept closer to get a better look. The bird's head turned immediately as it heard Sam's footsteps, but it just stared at him instead of flying away. "Easy there birdie," Sam soothed as he inched closer. "I'm not going to hurt you, just want to get a better look at you." The bird was indeed beautiful. It had shimmering metallic feathers and "ears" like a Great-Horned Owl's. Sam was amazed a bird of it's size hadn't flown off yet the closer he got. It almost appeared as if the bird was smiling at him, as he crunched down in front of it and spoke to it for a bit.
It was apparently a bird of intelligence, Sam observed. He wondered what would happen if he held out his arm and beckoned the bird to jump onto it.

After a few tries, with the bird finally learning what he was asking, the bird jumped onto his arm and Sam's heart began to flutter. This is amazing! he thought as he carefully stood upright with the bird lingering on his arm, talons gripping it.

"You feel like coming home with me?" Sam asked.
The bird just c'oc'ke'd it's head to the side and blinked at him a couple of times.
"I guess we shall see huh?" he said as he slowly walked back home. Fortunately it was only about two hundred feet away.
Sam already owned a large birdcage from a previous pet bird he had that passed on so he pulled it out again and made it up for his new pet. The bird seemed to enjoy his new environment which surprised Sam. Man, everything about this world is just different from my own and...I really enjoy discovering every bit of it. He wasn't sure what he would name his new buddy yet, but he knew a great name would come to him eventually.
******************
A few days later Sam thought, for a change, he would get a little more creative (and be a little silly) in asking Donna out again. He decided to write her a "love letter" and tried desperately to remember how to write a great poem from his early school days.
https://s20.postimg.cc/watznizbh/SB_love_letter_2.jpg
Success! He finished it off with a nice personal note...
https://s20.postimg.cc/an51d2yx9/SB_love_letter_1.jpg
...and sent it off in the mail. He was sure she'd receive it by the end of the day.
And she did. The next morning Donna called him before leaving for work, expressing how his letter warmed her heart and that she would love to meet him at the place he specified after she got off work that day. Sam felt like he was floating on Cloud 9 as he concluded with, "Sounds like a date then. I'll meet you there at four. Have a great day at work. Bye." They would be meeting at the Redwood Peak Viewing Area.
******************
The Redwood Peak Viewing Area was Sam's favorite place in all of Hidden Springs to visit.
https://s20.postimg.cc/p6ld5z6tp/SB_snowy_scenery_1.jpg
With breathtaking mountain views, the colorful city down below and a massive waterfall just off to the right...it was a very relaxing and serene spot. The perfect place to bring a date he always thought.
https://s20.postimg.cc/mf23fd8b1/SB_snowy_scenery_3.jpg
Sam waited for quite a while, admiring the scenery when he thought, Donna should've been here by now and glanced down at his watch. It was nearing four-thirty. He shrugged it off and figured she most likely got off work late and was making her way over. Besides there was a bit of a walk to get up to the peak. Still, just to be sure, he sent her a text message making sure everything was OK.
https://s20.postimg.cc/wnukl6wct/SB_snowy_scenery_2.jpg
Fifteen more minutes passed and Sam could feel the cold finally making it's way through his jacket. He did receive a text back from Donna that she was on her way so in the meantime he started a fire in the fire pit to keep warm while waiting.
https://s20.postimg.cc/9mrb1ajwt/SB_Donna_first_kiss_date_1.jpg
Donna arrived a couple of minutes before five and she walked up to Sam expressing her apologies. She did get off work late from working on a project and then of course the short trail up to the peak in heels was a bit difficult.
"I'm sorry about that," Sam apologized in return, "I hope your feet aren't hurting."
"Oh no," Donna assured, "they are just fine. Really, it was no problem." She glanced around for a moment and added, "It really is beautiful up here."
Sam smiled. "It's even more beautiful now that you're here."
Donna blushed.
Sam stepped closer to her and said, "I'm glad you you made it and that you're alright," as he lightly kissed her on the lips.
https://s20.postimg.cc/w03n1ua8d/SB_Donna_first_kiss_date_12.jpg
Donna gladly returned the peck.
https://s20.postimg.cc/w1dkv9c25/SB_Donna_first_kiss_date_13.jpg
When they both stepped back and gazed into each others eyes, Donna spoke first. "Wow," she said in a whisper. "I wasn't expecting that."
Chuckling a bit, Sam said, "I didn't plan on it, it just...felt right."
Donna grinned.
https://s20.postimg.cc/r400a5a31/SB_Donna_first_kiss_date_14.jpg
"Perhaps it would've been more appropriate," Sam continued, "if I had serenaded you first."
Donna giggled. "Maybe. Well then?" she encouraged.
Sam then began to serenade her with a song he learned from one of the tourists from Champs Les Sims.
https://s20.postimg.cc/7xi7t847h/SB_Donna_first_kiss_date_3.jpg
At first it was hard for her to make out what he was saying, but she soon forgot about that and felt her heart begin to flutter listening to his phenomenal voice.
"Oh really?" she asked jokingly.
Sam nodded and continued.
https://s20.postimg.cc/ozb1vbj2l/SB_Donna_first_kiss_date_4.jpg
When Sam raised his arm in the air for the grand ending, Donna held her hand to her heart, swooning, but not literally.
https://s20.postimg.cc/ahdunbrrh/SB_Donna_first_kiss_date_5.jpg
"Oh Sam!" she exclaimed, taking his hands, "that was beautiful! You really have a GREAT voice!"
"Thank you," Sam blushed.
"Hopefully I'm not working next time you perform."
"For sure."
Their arms swayed from side to side for a bit, each one falling even more deeply for the other.
https://s20.postimg.cc/82lz2wbil/SB_Donna_first_kiss_date_7.jpg
Coming out of the daze over the romantic moment, Sam took a good look at Donna's attire and exclaimed, "You must be freezing! Where's your coat?" He began to take off his to offer her.
"Oh I'm ok," she assured, "my sleeves are long enough and my nylons are surprisingly keeping my legs warm."
Sam hesitated, but put his coat back on.
"Besides," she added, "I've always preferred the cold weather anyway."
Smiling Sam said, "Well, coat or not you look great."
https://s20.postimg.cc/brg9g4ax9/SB_Donna_first_kiss_date_11.jpg
"Oh Sam," Donna said, looking away while blushing, "you gotta stop making me blush like this." She rubbed at her arms because she really did feel cold and Sam noticed she was shivering slightly.
"Here," Sam said, taking her into his arms, "let me warm you up here."
https://s20.postimg.cc/ydgzf3z9p/SB_Donna_first_kiss_date_9.jpg
Donna held onto him tightly. "Oh Sam," she said again, "You are just the sweetest and most thoughtful man I have ever met."
https://s20.postimg.cc/g9dyuh1l9/SB_Donna_first_kiss_date_8.jpg
After a few seconds of hugging, Sam released her a bit to look into her eyes, but he didn't step back too far. Donna returned his gaze and added, "and you're the most romantic man I've ever met."
Now, Sam blushed. He didn't know what to say.
"About that kiss?" Donna asked with an expression of longing upon her face. That short kiss, in and of itself, was amazing. She longed for more.
"Yes?" Sam asked, longing for the same.
Donna leaned in and kissed him more passionately this time.
https://s20.postimg.cc/dblleijbh/SB_Donna_first_kiss_date_15.jpg
"Oh really?" Sam asked after a few seconds.
"Yes," Donna answered. "Really."
https://s20.postimg.cc/5ww9m4xfx/SB_Donna_first_kiss_date_16.jpg
And that's the way they continued for the next several minutes...the sun beginning to set in the background.

Note: this is not the end of Part 3, I just have to stop here because it's after midnight and I must get to bed if I'm going to function tomorrow! :lol:
Hope you enjoyed it. :blush:
