Chapter One: Gee, that's one LONG flashback.....

Jack shook his head vigourously, causing water to fly in all directions and grinning broader than one would think anyone with his size noggin could. He burst out laughing, and swiped his hand across the rippled surface of the water, spraying waves of crystal clear, cool and refreshing water over his beautiful wife, Celia, and his son, Alex, who was held close to her chest, in her arms, and desperately clawing forward, reaching for the waterfall right next to him. she cried in protest, putting one of her hands in front of her to block the water, in vain.

AHH! Daddy! Alex cried, blinking his eyes tightly shut and instantly withdrawing his groping hand. Both his parents bust out in giggle fits and he glanced between them, a very confused look on his face. Wha, what? he asked shyly, looking up on the water sprinkled face of his mother.

Sweetheart, you, you have a, a FISH on your head! she chocked out in-between laughs. Alex blinked several times before awkwardly, and with as little movement as he could manage, glanced up at the top of his head(well, as close as you can get without a mirror), and, just on cue, a small fish's tail collided with his face as it flopped off, back into the water.

AH! Mean fishy!! he cried, wiping at his face frantically as though it might become contaminated, which just caused his parents to laugh more. Jack was wearing a pair of light blue swim trunks, his wife a light green one piece swimsuit, with horizontal white strips across it(no bandanna), and they were both up to their chests in water. Their son, who now clung relentlessly to his mother's suit, cowering in fear of more fish that may attack at any moment now, in seek of revenge, wore a pair of dark green swim trunks, and no hat.(Darn headgear isn't waterproof!)

Well, you three seem to be having fun.... a blond girl with absorbing blue eyes said calmly, with the slightest undertone of anger, from the riverside. It was none other than the infamous Muffy, in her incredibly revealing, bright red bikini. Jack, turning to face the lady, dropped his arms and stared, a slight blush covering his face. Celia blinked briefly, before catching on, probably from the malevolent and seductive grin that now consumed Muffy's face, as she began posing for any males in the proximity, and waded carefully across the river, and taped Jack lightly on the back, her face with a horribly annoyed and stern look on it. He wheeled around, nearly knocking her over, and after about a semi-second of his brain catching up with him, his arm flew behind his head and he grinned sheepishly.

Eh heh heh, er, sorry, darling? he said awkwardly, still blushing. Celia's face softened a bit, she pecked him lightly on the cheek, waving a finger slightly in front of his face as if to say That's a no-no.' and waded the rest of the way to the shore, setting Alex down on the river side, at Muffy's feet(coincidentally).

Mommy! No! Me wanna swim!! the boy cried in protest, but she quickly hushed him, then Celia looked up toward the blue bar waitress.

So, Muffy, what brings you here? she asked, her voice leaking with inward dwelling rage. Long ago, the village girls had been competing over the newcomer. Muffy and Celia had obviously both fallen for him(hard....) by the time Fall rolled around, but no one really figured out what Nami was thinking. Anyway, Nami wasn't the one trying to break Jack's loyalty, so, back to the matter at hand, -ahem-, It was a brisk, winter day, just a tad bit colder than most, when Celia came running into the farm, as Jack was engulfed in a very interesting milking session........

!!!FLASHBACK!!!

Celia, what's wrong? Jack asked, his voice slightly strained with worry. Tears were running in streams down from her gentle eyes, and her apron and face were coated with dirt.

Jack! I, I'm so sorry! please, forgive me! she wailed, collapsing at his feet. There were harsh cuts along her ankles, that ran up her flawless legs, and probably farther, but he couldn't see past her dress(not that he was trying! ;D ).

Celia! Wha, what's wrong? What are you sorry for? Jack asked awkwardly trying to stroke her back in a attempt to comfort her. She just withered away and began to cry harder.

Oh, Jack! I'm, I'm SO sorry! she continued to wail into the soft snow that coated the freshly cut grass. Jack was beginning to get very nervous. He couldn't seem to get her calmed down, he didn't know what he should do to try, and he had no clue what she could be blubbering for.

C-Celia, what is it? I, I'm sure it'll be fine! he offered, getting down and rubbing her back in gentle circular motions. To both his relief and horror, she didn't pull away this time, but still buried her nose deeper into the snow.

Oh, Jack, I, I- she began, sobbing uncontrollably, before her speech was interrupted by another familiar voice.

Jackie, dear! It's me, Muffy! I have something for you! Muffy cried, walking up to the fence. Seemingly totally ignoring the sobbing Celia, she held out a brightly ornate red box. Happy Birthday! I got you a gift! she said, her eyes closed in joy, but as she said the words Happy Birthday', Celia's sobs almost doubled.

Er, Muffy, could you, maybe, come by later? I'm, a bit, busy. he said, a bit unsure of himself, glancing back at the Celia who had abandoned him, squirming in-between sobs over till she was on the other side of Bess(his cow).

Aw, but I made it just for you! she said in a mock disappointed tone, her eyes now opened and fluttering in that seductive way she used just to get to him. Jack was kneeling strangely in front of his cow, but facing the side of the fence Muffy stood at instead of his cow, an embarrassed and confused look on his face. Come on! It'll only take a second! she said happily. Jack sighed.

Muffy, why don't, you, put it down or something, and, I'll stop by the Blue Bar to open it, or, you could take it with you, I'm just, busy right now. he said wearily, thinking This is going to be a very complicated morning, at this rate...' in a very exhausted mental tone.

Hmph! Doing what? Today's Your birthday! she asked, rather impatient. Jack glanced around nervously for an excuse, meanwhile, Celia's sobs had reached a minimum, but she was gasping for breath and now hiccuping as well.

Uh, well, milking Bess! he said conclusively, finally realizing the obvious. Muffy put one of her hands on her hip in disgust, withdrawing the gift to her other side.

And how long will that take? she said angrily, tapping one of her feet impatiently.

Er, longer than you think! And, I, er, still have to brush and trim the sheep, and feed the chickens! But, I'll stop over as soon as my chores are done! he said hopefully. Much to his relief, with only another Hmph!' and a Fine!', she stomped off back to her place of employment. he breathed to himself, falling back on his bottom. Glad that's over, now..., he said calmly to himself, crawling across the snow back over to Celia. Ce, what's wrong? You can tell me anything...., he offered sweetly, placing a hand on her shoulder. She immediately rolled over, putting her face deeper in the snow and shaking him off.

You like -hiccup- Muffy, do-hiccup-don't you? she sobbed, curling up in a tiny ball. Jack, taken aback by both her reaction and response, withdraw his hand timidly.

Well, uh, of course. I, I like everyone in town. he said, his voice shaky from uncertainty. The sobs had died down considerably, and Celia slowly pulled herself into a sitting position, and turned to face him. Her eyes were red from tears, and she was still hiccuping every now and then, but most of the dirt had come off in the snow. Her nose and cheeks were bright red now from the cold, her clothes were soaked and a little muddy and a tiny trail of mucus ran from her right nostril to just above her upper lip. Seeing the way he stared at her, she quickly wiped her face with her sleeve, and vigourously rubbed her eyes with her fists.

No! You, you kn-hiccup-know what I mean! she protested, looking at him sorrowfully. How could one girl look so much like a Goddess, and yet so pathetic at the same time?

What? Oh, er, well...... he began awkwardly looking away, his cheeks turning slightly pink from the thought. It was true, Muffy was undeniably attractive, she always had been. But there was definitely a lot to be desired in the mental department'(as his father used to say sometimes...).

I knew it! I KNEW it! she screamed, standing up in one quick movement, and she began running. Jumping over the fence and heading for Vesta's farm, she called back Now I'm not even SORRY I lost your horse!

What? No, Celia! he cried, standing up as well, and reaching a hand out helplessly. No, I didn't mean, wait! he cried, taking a step forward, then a step back, then another forward, and finally returning to where he began. he whispered quietly, hanging his head and trudging regretfully toward his house, his hands and legs frozen from laying and sitting in the snow. Closing his door, his chores and Muffy temporally forgotten, he thought softly, in only the farthest reaches of his mind. No, not like this, not like this at all.... I love you...'
