This is story is actually being co-written by my sister (and me!) her account name is BlossomingLuck.
Anyway, We decided to write this story to incorporate elements that would appeal to a whole lot of different people :D (But, honestly, it's really a romantic comedy!) Which leads me to the may point why we started formatting the idea for this story, why aren't there more stories that feature yaoi and hetero pairings? (That's rhetorical :D) Anyway, that was the whole discussion/question that led to us coming up with this story. Obviously if you hate yaoi then DON'T read. If you're okay with it or undecided about it then give it a shot ;) or if you really like OCxGC pairings then you should also try reading :) I'm done with my little rant thing now.
Now to the actual part about the story! The pairings are OCxLuke, OCxChase, and then a male OCxGill; and later there may be some LunaxBo (they're a pairing that's recently grown on me!)
Okay, so I hope that you will read, enjoy, and review!
Wil POV
I held onto the side of the hay cart as it bounced along the bumpy dirt road. "I... oh…," the girl squeezed to my left groaned, as she placed a gloved hand slightly over her mouth. She cringed as her face started to shift to a pea green color. The contrast to her dark turquoise hair was actually rather amusing. Or it would have been had I not been ready to throw up too.
"Ugh…" the girl to her left groaned. She slightly cringed, obviously trying to hide the amount of pain she was in. Her light lavender colored hair fell over her shoulder in a loose ponytail.
"How are you guys doing back there?" the driver of the cart asked as he slightly glanced over.
"Oh, just fine," I lied as I mustered up a very forced smile.
"I must admit I have found myself in more pleasant circumstances," the girl next to me whispered, as she clutched onto the cart.
"So, I didn't catch your names earlier… you all related?" the driver asked.
"No, I'm afraid that we are not of the same family lineage," The girl next to me corrected.
The driver shrugged before turning his attention back to the bumpy road, "Well, I'm just asking. Folks around here don't always look alike. My name's Craig, by the way."
"My name is Sarene," the girl next to me replied. Her attire was completely ill suited for this trip. She was in a very elaborate dress varying in shades of peach, pink, white, and then a black corset.
"I'm Felicity," the other girl piped up with a gentle smile in Craig's direction. The older blonde man mustered up a smile in return.
"Oh, I'm Wil," I remarked.
"Wil? That short for anything?" Craig asked as he steered the horse slightly to the left.
"Um, yeah," I replied as my grip tightened on the cart, "Not William though. That would have made too much sense." I sighed.
"So then I must ask, what is your name?" Sarene remarked as she tried not to be thrown out of the cart or throw up.
"Wilhelm," I replied with a sigh, "My mom really liked old, bizarre, traditional names."
"That's a fine name," Felicity offered up nicely.
"I don't believe I've ever been acquainted with a Wilhelm before…" Sarene whispered, before returning to the daunting task of trying to hold onto the cart for dear life. A few painful moments and the town was in sight.
"We're almost at Harmonica Town," Craig announced, rather gloomily actually.
"Oh finally," Sarene exclaimed as she turned to look at the town looming in the distance, her eyebrows furrowed together… it must not have been what she was expecting.
"What a cute town!" Felicity exclaimed as she clasped her hands together. Within a few moments we were dropped off in front of the town.
"If you guys see Pascal, can you tell him to drop anyone else off at the port? Not some random beach… And next time Cain better come get whoever ends up wherever." Craig huffed before we all got out of the cart. Sarene coughed slightly, expecting someone to help her down. I just raised my eyebrows and she was forced to jump out of the cart. I heard the trot of the horse's hooves as they went further into the distance.
"There the three of you are!" a blonde man sighed as he stormed over, "You were supposed to be here an hour ago! What happened?" he huffed.
I raise my hands slightly and smiled, "Calm down, there was a mix up and Pascal dropped us off on some beach so Craig had to come get us."
"I swear if this happens again…" the man huffed. He shook his head, clearly deciding to let it go, "Anyway, I'm glad the three of you all arrived today that way I will not have to repeat this three times. My name is Gill; I will be briefly showing you around," he explained, "we really don't have much time for introductions, however, so I'm going to get right to the chase." Gill then proceeded to ramble off a bunch of buildings and then point to them. "Since it's already sunset, I suggest the three of you just stay at the inn and then come up with a more permanent rooming situation tomorrow. You should also talk to my father, Mayor Hamilton." Gill explained.
"Um…" I stammered as I stared. I was used to crazy instructions but Gill definitely seemed to not really care; probably because he had something more important to do. Gill then walked off.
"So I guess we're going to the inn?" Felicity whispered as she looked in the direction of the building Gill must have said the Inn was.
"That is normally the proper etiquette …" Sarene let her voice trail off. We then headed to the Inn. Although the three of us didn't seem to have a whole lot in common it seemed like we were stuck together, at least for now. We entered the large Inn.
"Welcome to Ocarina Inn!" a slim woman with short hair exclaimed, "My name is Colleen. I assume you were the three new arrivals I heard all about?"
"Heard all about?" I remarked as I scratched my head.
"Of course! Barbra mentioned they hired you to help at the general store. And then Perry kept saying how a very qualified young woman was coming to the island to discuss some problem with the Goddess Tree," she explained gesturing to Felicity, then she looked at Sarene, "and it's nothing short of a miracle when an heiress from the mainland arrives here!"
Felicity POV
Sarene looked very uncomfortable as she shifted her feet. She gave an awkward nod as she said, "Well, I'm very pleased that I was able to arrive, my father will also be quite impressed at the hospitability you're offering."
"Oh, it's no problem, you're welcome any time, we've got a nice room set up for you," Colleen stated. Then her eyes shifted to Wil and me, as she continued, "But, I'm afraid we're fresh out of available rooms, so we've set the two of you up in a back room."
"Umm… that should be fine…" I said trying to shake off my discomfort. I mean Wil seemed really nice and all but I certainty was jumping up and down at the idea of sleeping near him.
"Well, Then I'll show the two of you to the back. Oh, and Maya, honey, can you take Sarene up to her room? " Colleen asked nicely to the energetic girl, I assumed was Maya.
"Oh, yeah, of course!" Maya babbled happily as she basically skipped up the stairs. I found her enthusiasm refreshing; but, Sarene looked brutally out of place and uncomfortable.
"Well, then let's head back. Usually my husband, Jake, is in charge of the guests but he had to run a quick errand," Colleen explained as she lead us to a back section of the Inn. It was a small room yellow colored room, with dainty wooden furniture. It had a small living room space that was connected to a petite kitchen, along with a tiny bedroom off to the side.
"So, there should be enough space for both of you, once again I'm deeply sorry about the inconvenience. We'll hopefully have all your living situations sorted out for tomorrow," With that Colleen gave a quick smile as she left the room.
"I'll take the couch, and don't worry; I promise I'm not a creepy pervert," Wil said with a lopsided grin.
"Well, that's slightly reassuring," I said with a small smile and a chuckle. I opened the creaky door to the small bedroom, the wall was a faint blue color and the paint was peeling, but it was still fairly quaint. I slowly sat down on the soft quilt that covered the bed. I closed my eyes as I tried to picture the journey ahead of me. As of now, I was getting nothing. I didn't have a clue about what was in store for me.
"Well, I'll be going to bed now, see you in the morning," Wil called from the other room. I smiled a little as I quickly pulled on a blue nightgown that came down to my knees. I turned off the lamp as I crawled into the bed. I let my thoughts drift as I was overcome by sleep.
Later that night….
"Hello," A faint voice chirped. I only slightly could make out the voice as I was pulled out of my pleasant sleep. That voice did not sound like Wil.
"W-who are you?" I mumbled as I pulled the covers up to my chin. Perhaps this was just a dream.
"My name's Flynn, what's yours?" The voice asked. By now my heart was pounding in my chest, and I felt the small shriek escape my lips before I could stop it.
"Are you alright?" I heard Wil ask but I was frozen. In front of me floated a dorky looking orange sprite, with a huge grin plastered on its face, this was definitely not something to be afraid of.
"I didn't mean to scare you; I only wanted to find someone to help me," The sprite, Flynn, exclaimed. He fluttered forward as he pumped his fist in the air with a grin.
"What the hell?" Wil had a look of total disbelief from where he stood in the doorway.
"This is… Flynn…" I managed to say, still in complete and utter shock.
"Nice to meet ya both!" He giggled happily, as he flashed us both a smile.
"What exactly is Flynn?" Will squeaked. He rubbed his eyes like he still couldn't believe this was happening.
"I… I think he's a… Harvest sprite…" I tried to explain. I'd heard the rumors but I'd never expected to actually see one… Somehow I'd always pictured them a tad more graceful and elegant.
"Wow! You're right, I am a harvest sprite," He said with a smile. It was the most awkward sentence I'd ever heard... Like there could be some doubt about whether he was or wasn't a harvest sprite. He definitely wasn't the brightest…
"And, um, what exactly are you doing here?" Wil stated awkwardly. The sprite was humming as he fluttered around.
"I came for help," He said nodding, as if that was supposed to explain this whole situation to us.
"To do what?" Wil inquired, trying to get this difficult little fellow to explain himself.
"Well… the Harvest Goddess would need to tell you that…" He replied, biting his thumb nail.
"Well, than where can we find the Harvest Goddess?" Wil asked, trying to get Flynn to fully tell his story.
"I think I might know that. There's a Goddess Spring here, right? That'd be the most logical place," I pointed out with a smile. The sprite just nodded with a dopey grin.
"Okay, then… So, um, we'll go their tomorrow…" Wil said his eyebrows furrowing together, showing he still didn't really understand this whole situation.
"Okay, I'll wait for the three of you!" He chirped as he disappeared in a cloud of orange sparkles.
"Three?" Wil said looking confused. Then the answer hit me.
"Sarene, she'd have to come, too," Why the three of us, I didn't know… but… we'd figure it out…
Okay, I know Craig in the beginning probably wasn't bitter enough and goodness we made Flynn dopey ^_^' but hey, whatever works! I hope that you've enjoyed and will review ;D
