Gaven and Elaine were on a date,after arriving in Gaven’s car. Elaine told Gaven she needed to talk to him about something the previous day. Gaven agreed and they settled on meeting for a picnic.
While setting up the picnic Gaven smiled and made small jokes trying to ease some tension. While Elaine was silent and stared at Gaven with a fire in her eyes.

“Men.”
She went into his car,after grabbing his keys,and took one last look at the area. It was a beautiful open field filled with daises. ‘Tragic’ she thought.

Looking out the window Elaine watched the town fly by and received a call from her roommate. “El! Where are you?” Elaine ignored the question and said “I did..the craziest thing...”
