This small one-shot, and first story, is dedicated to Miss rouge apple, my favorite fanfiction artist since she wanted to review something of mine. Hope you'll all enjoy.

Choices

My life is a wreck… I had always made the wrong choices in the past. I never knew the difference between good and bad. After all those years, after all the tough times in my life, I just couldn't help fear from taking over me. I couldn't see the truth in the eyes anymore… I couldn't trust anyone anymore… (Cliff's diary day 267)

It was the middle of winter. It had been a year since Eve had taken over the farm in Mineral Town. It was also a year since she had met Cliff, the town's shy guy. He just looked so sad, Eve couldn't help but cheer him up. Ever since then, they had been friends… well… let's just say that Eve would've liked being a bit more than that. Yes, she had a little crush… ok, a big crush on Cliff. But she had to face the facts; he just didn't feel the same way towards her… He liked Ann. How did she know? Well…

(A few months earlier) Cliff ran towards Eve's farm seeming marvelously happy. "Eve ! Eve !" He yelled as he knocked on the wooden door. "Cliff, it's 7 in the morning… you know I don't get up until half past eight on Sundays." Eve groaned opening the door.

-"I know but I have some great news! Ann just asked me out!"

"Uh… that's great… WAIT! WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY?!" Claire yelled. Cliff replied: "Ann asked me out! I accepted of course! No one had ever asked me out before. Isn't it great?"

-"Y-Yeah… That's nice Cliff. Congratulations…"

-"What's wrong Eve?"

-"Nothing… just a little tired. I'll see you later ok?"

-"Sure… See you later then."

Claire slowly closed the door seeing Cliff getting out of her property. She walked towards her one-person sized bed and plumped down on it before crying out all her anger and sadness. She felt like part of her had died.

(Back to the present)

"Good morning Mineral Town!" she shouted as she got out of her small farmhouse. It was usual for her to go out to town and say 'hi' to everyone she met, however, today was slightly different. She headed out to the forest just before Mother's Hill. She didn't know why, something told her that she had to go there.

"Cliff?" Eve thought to herself. Near the lake, Cliff was crouched in a ball, throwing pebbles in the water. "What's wrong with him?"

"Hey Cliff, what's up?" She said as she approached him. Cliff, who didn't hear her coming, jumped. "W-What? Oh. E-Eve… I-I-I-I-I-I…" Cliff babbled, crying. "CLIFF?! What's wrong?! Why are you crying?!" Eve came to Cliff's side and hugged him tightly.

-"A-A-Ann d-d-d…"

"What? Why would she dump you?" Eve interrupted him. Cliff stopped crying after a while then answered: "We got into a fight and she kicked me out yelling that she… she…" He started crying again.

"Calm down… It's alright…" Eve said reassuringly. Cliff stopped once again but said in pure sadness, "No, it's not alright. I'll have to leave town."

-"What? But ! Cliff ! You can't ! I…"

-"I don't have any money left, Ann was able to let me keep my room but since she kicked me out well…"
-"I'll let you stay with me then !"

-"Eve… Your house is too small… I don't have a reason to stay anymore anyways…"

-"You… You have me… I'll give you a reason."

Cliff looked up into Eve's watery eyes. He could see something he had never seen before. Or… more like something he had never thought he would see. He leaned forward and kissed Eve passionately. She melted on the spot. Her dream had come true.

"Will you stay with me then?" she asked. "Forever please." He answered kissing her again.

That… was the best choice of my life… (Cliff's diary, day 765)
