Harvest Moon Fanfic
Conflicting Love
PonyxMarlin
Chapter 1
Pony, she is a newcomer to Forget-Me-Not Valley. I'm not really that close to her, so I don't know that much about her. Why should I care, anyway?
"Marlin, go greet Pony."
"Vesta, I don't want to. Why should I go greet her? I don't care about her at all."
"It'll make her feel more welcome to the valley. Just go."
"Yes, I think you should go," said Celia.
"Ok, Celia. I'll do it for you."
"Ok. I need to tell you something when you come back, ok?"
"Ok."
"So, you suddenly became happy when Celia told you to, huh?"
"That isn't it Vesta! I'm leaving!"
So I reluctantly went to Pony's house. It's really close to mine, so I went there. Then I knocked. A girl with a ponytail and an orange and white t-shirt greeted me.
"Hello. Who are you?"
"Marlin."
"That's a very nice name."
"I noticed."
"Uh…."
"OK, so I'll be leaving now."
"Wait!"
Pony tripped and fell into my arms.
"Uh, Pony?"
Pony's face became flustered.
"I tripped, I-I"
"I'm going home now."
"How do you know my name anyway?"
"Vesta told me. Well, bye."
I went home, embarrassed about what just happened.
"Oh, Marlin! You're back! Let's go somewhere private so I can tell you something."
"Uh, OK."
Celia took me to Mineral Town and we went to a restaurant in Doug's Inn.
"So what did you want to talk about?"
"I want to give you something. 2 things, actually."
Celia blushed and gave me a bag filled with sweetened crops from our farm.
"Th-Thanks."
I blushed and she blushed even redder than before.
When I was about to go to the bathroom, she got up and hugged me.
"Marlin, I-I got a job offering at a farm in Flower Bud Village . And I…"
"What?!"
"I need to give you something."
Celia handed me a blue feather.
"A blue feather?! You mean you want to get married?"
"Yes. If we're married I can go where ever I want, with you by my side. I love you Marlin."
"Celia, I can't accept this or come with you. I have to help out at the farm."
"But I love you!"
"I… I'm sorry. But I don't love you back."
I dropped the blue feather.
"Fine. If that's how you feel, I'm going without you."
Celia left and went on the boat to America. I tried to stop her, but she pushed me into the ocean.
"Celia! Wait!"
But by then she had already been deep in the ocean.
I felt so stupid.
5 years later Pony and I had gotten very close.
She works on Vesta Farm now.
Although me and Pony had been very close, I still kept the crops Celia gave me. Looking at the bag gave me hope.
