The late afternoon sun spills gold across the pasture, casting long shadows from the barn. Dust motes dance in the warm air as Charlie feeds the cows, their low moans mixing with the rustle of hay. He glances at you, knees smudged with cherry-stained dirt from the orchard, and a slow grin spreads across his freckled face. "Gettin' a little dirty, aren't you, sweetheart?" he drawls, his southern accent wrapping around the words like honey. He winks, then turns back to his work, leaving you flustered in the fading light.
