The Brotherhood of Harvest Moon

Chapter One: Brothers

Luke yawned as he slammed his alarm clock and tossed the blankets over his head. "Luke!" someone yelled. "It's ten o'clock and Chase has breakfast ready so get your lazy ass down here!"

"Shut up, Gill! I need my beauty sleep, you idiot!" Luke yelled back. It was silent for a few minutes, until Luke heard someone stomping up the stairs. A few seconds later, Gill appeared at his door.

"If you're going to be like this every morning, then you can stop all those late-night parties!" Luke shot Gill the evil eye.

"Never", Luke muttered. Gill rolled his eyes.

"Chase made some spinach… but I guess you're not interested", Gill said quietly as he left the room.

Luke sat up. "Spinach?"

Chase was cleaning up the kitchen when Gill entered scratching the back of his head, "Please tell me you made something with spinach in it…"

There was a long moment of silence and Chase stared at Gill with no emotion before calmly saying "…no."

Luke stormed down the stairs a few moments later. "Chase, my man!" Chase gave a very un-amused sigh. "I knew you'd make my favorite! Just for me, buddy? You shouldn't have!"

Chase turned his head to look at Gill, but he had already retreated from the room.

Luke, Gill, and Chase had been friends since high school. Though they had very different personalities, they each had a certain respect for each other. Once out of high school, with the help of Luke's father, Dale, they transformed the old lighthouse into an amazing home, fit for the three of them. The first floor was the biggest with a huge living room and kitchen. On the second floor were Gill's room and a small room with a computer and two bookshelves. The third floor was where Luke and Chase's rooms were. The forth was home to a door leading to outside, where spiral stairs led to the top of the lighthouse.

Later that day Luke sat lazily on the couch, flicking through the very limited number of channels. Chase was in the kitchen, cleaning some dishes, and Gill was out having dinner with his father, Hamilton.

Chase entered the living room and sat next to Luke who was now watching Elli's news. "What are you watching that crap for? It's just three minutes worth of lame information that we don't want to know."

"Yea, but Elli's boobs are frickin' huge!" replied Luke as he stared at the screen.

"You're such a-" began Chase, until he eyed the TV. "You're actually right…"

Gill walked in the front door a minute later. "So, I was discussing something with my father today", he began.

His voice snapped Chase back to reality and he quickly turned away from the TV, "Oh, really what about?"

"Well, I'll tell you once Luke stops watching the television…" Gill replied.

Luke didn't even respond until Chase shook his shoulder. "Dude, even you admitted she has big breasts… don't interrupt me."

Gill stared blankly at Chase who began to lightly blush. "No! I never said that!"

Gill walked over to the TV and hit the power button hard with his fist. "As I was saying… my father was discussing some business with the town and it seems as if we'll have some new residents here on the island.

"I don't really care", Chase said as he let himself slide deeper into the couch cushion.

"Are they cute chicks?" Luke asked.

"Idiots…" muttered Gill. "I don't know all the details, but there are two twins and some other girl."

"It should be interesting…" Chase said.

"We should have like… a welcome party!" Luke happily suggested.

"No!" Gill and Chase said in unison.

"They're coming sometime this week, and we should all greet them with smiles", Gill looked at Chase, and "Which means no rude comments…" Then he looked at Luke. "And no hitting on either of them!"

Luke and Chase sighed. It was defiantly going to be an interesting week.

Author's Note: I thought it would be very interesting to have three boys with such different personalities living under one roof. I'm sure it will prove to be very amusing. Luke, Chase, and Gill are my favorite boys in Harvest Moon Tree of Tranquility and I found it very hard to choose between the three of them. I wanted to write a fan-fiction for each of them, and I couldn't decide which one to write first, when I got the idea for this fan-fic. I was discussing it with my best friend and she couldn't wait for me to write it. She also gave me some great ideas for later chapters, so I'd like to give some credit to my best friend, Alex.
