Julia sipped hot tea from a dainty teacup and took a bite out of a blueberry muffin when someone knocked at the door.

"Miss Julia, there is a Mister Jack outside for you." Sebastian called and walked over. "Don't worry, you look fine." he whispered.

Julia giggled. Jack never officially asked her out. They gave each other glances and spoke daily, but Jack would just court subtly. This was the first real indication he liked her. She straitened her peach sundress and went to greet Jack. He was wearing khaki pants and a blue button down shirt. He also was holding a toy flower that smelled like soap.

"Hello Jack. Is that for me?" Julia said indicating the flower.

"Yes. I was wondering, would you like to uh, see my farm?" he said shyly.

"I would enjoy that very much." she said, tucking the flower behind her ear.

"Great. So would you like to go now?" he asked.

"We shall." she said.

They talked pleasantly while the walked and enjoyed the trip. Not as much because the conversation but just being with each other gave them the enlightening feeling. The conservation was mostly just about how Julia was settling in or what festival was coming up next.

"It is a really beautiful day." Julia said dreamily.

"Yeah, it sure is." he said.

Jack then slipped his hand into hers, giving her a little jump. But she didn't resist and held tighter. They both blushed and looked into each other's eyes for a moment. His blue green eyes sparkled and her gray eyes were warm and inviting. Their faces moved closer but he turned his head down.

"Oh look, we're here." Jack said with a hint of sadness.

The farm had tall green grass that waved in the breeze. Two cows were grazing in the pasture and chickens ran around gaily. Julia then saw a picnic set out by the pond.

"I made us lunch." he said walking to the blanket.

"Wow, it looks delicious." Julia gushed. She sat gracefully, tucking her feet under her bottom.

"All of the food I made from the farm. Here is some cheese, grape juice, fried eggs, and apple pie. It is pretty amazing, and it's all fresh." Jack said with a twinkle in his eye and a sense of pride.

After they ate their fill and chatted for a few hours the sun began to set.

"Thanks for the meal but I really must be going." Julia said as she stood up and fixed her hair.

"Well, can I at least walk you home?" he asked.

"Of course." she said sweetly.

They walked back and held hands; a few villagers stared and smiled. Nina looked at Galen and smiled. Muffy giggled and continued sweeping outside the bar. Even Hugh ran off to tell his mom that gave them a warm smile. Seeing the onlookers, Jack shifted his eyes and let go.

"Hmm? What is the problem?" Julia asked.

"It's not you, it's just... I don't want everyone to know we are going out." Julia made a little sigh and looked away. "It's really just this one girl that has a huge crush on me. I don't want to hurt her feelings." Jack explained.

"Jack, she has to know that you are dating me or she will just get her hopes up and be more devastated when you turn her down. And I think we will get more serious because... I really care about you." Julia said.

"I care about you too." he said with a smile.

"Well, we're here. I had a great time." Jack said and started to walk away when Julia grabbed his hand and pulled him back.

"I never got my kiss." Julia said cutely.

He grinned as she put her hands around his neck. They swayed for a moment until finally their lips met. He opened his mouth slightly and only for a couple of seconds their tongues touched and they started to pull away. But as soon as they looked into each others eyes and they began kissing again. Julia pulled him closer and kissed a little harder. Jack wasn't reluctant and he squeezed her close. This would seem to be a happy moment but not for the girl in the window, crying her eyes out.

End Episode

Notes: I'm sorry to stop it right here, but if I wrote the whole thing it would be too long and you wouldn't see a update for a while since there is a lot of drama coming up. I am also sorry the links I put out last chapter didn't work, I really don't know why. I just won't do anymore. But if anyone cares I get all my ideas from tonner dolls- Betsy McCall or Tiny Betsy McCall
