A/N: Hey everyone! My name…is Fallen…*bows*…and I am here today…to bring you…some Harvest Moon one-shots! Oh, but not just any one-shots; these will be specifically categorised into many separate…eh…they're gonna be in alphabetical order, okay?

Now, I'm new to this fandom, so I ask that you PLEASE treat me with respect. Like, literally, I got 'Sunshine Islands' 3 days ago. Which, in case you haven't noticed, will be the base of these one-shots.

Is that all? Oh yeah! One more thing! The one-shots will have as much Chelsea X Vaughn as I can cram into them! I love Vaughn! He's just so…*sighs dreamily* I wanna have his babies! :D

Ahem, so without further ado, I give to you, 'The A to Z of Sunshine Islands!'

Chapter 1 - Apples

"Hey, Vaughn! Look at that!"

I sighed a little and tilted my hat to the side; allowing myself some sight while still hiding my face from passers-by.

"What, Chelsea?"

The hyper-active woman pouted; a simple gesture that made my stomach flip and my heart thump loudly in my chest. Why did she have to look so darn cute?

"See for yourself!" she giggled happily, pointing up into a large tree that was situated in the middle of the bustling island. Slowly, I allowed my eyes to trail up the tree's thick trunk, along it's thin sickly branches, to finally stop on the item Chelsea had been so fascinated about.

"It's the first apple of Fall!" she cheered, her small form practically bouncing from excitement. I glanced at the apple, and back to her; repeating this process a few times before sighing slightly. She noticed, and poked my arm, getting my attention.

"What's wrong?" she asked, her face falling slightly as I gave her the look that told her I was not amused.

"Chelsea…it's just an apple. It's nothing special," I sighed, moving away from her, walking towards the gigantic tree and leaning against the trunk, tilting my hat over my eyes again to shield them from the setting sun.

"It is special, Vaughn! This apple is the start of a new season!" she chimed, skipping over to me and leaning against the tree; mimicking my posture which made me huff in annoyance.

"This apple signifies that the seasons are changing; Summer is finally morphing into Fall. This apple holds the seeds that will make crops grow in the future for many years. This apple holds the future in it's core," she whispered, and I risked a quick glance at her. She was staring up at the sky; her bright azure eyes seeming to glisten; glisten with an intensity that rivalled that of the ocean's waters.

"I…never thought of it that way," I muttered, glancing up at the apple again, allowing Chelsea's words to sink in.

"…Well…I guess it is still just an apple," she giggled a little, reaching her hands out to grasp one of the low branches, "there are plenty more of them to come, I'm sure…hey, Vaughn?"

I turned my head, a little put off to find that Chelsea was no longer climbing. She had vanished into the branches. My eyes scanned the tree, searching for anything that might give her away; her red bandana, the bright blue of her eyes, her laugh that reminded me slightly of a bell's chime…

"Whoa!"

I only had enough time to glance upwards as she came hurtling down; a broken branch clutched tightly in her hands. My eyes widened, and I felt her weight hit me like a truck. We both went tumbling forwards into the grass.

I groaned a little, rubbing my now hat-less head in irritation and pain. I felt something shaking on top of me, and then that's when I heard it.

"Hahaha! Thanks for breaking my fall, Vaughn! I owe you!"

She was laughing. Laughing. I felt my face beginning to burn with embarrassment and anger, and I couldn't help from growling a little.

"What were you doing up there?" I muttered, and she sighed; wiping a stray tear from her eye, before answering.

"I was trying to get the apple."

I head-butted the floor, groaning a little at her utter stupidity. All this for a fruit…

And, done! Hope you enjoyed! Next up, 'B'! Please review!
