Yep, I'm still alive. I'm working on my Pokemon story "Pokemon Transforms" 'cause I recently got inspiration for it again. Oh, and look, a non-Pokemon story. Yayy! It's going to be a drabble collection, so yeah. I just asked my friend to give me something to write about and she wanted me to write a love triangle thing between Rick, Karen, and a surprise.

So here. If my friend is here right now, I dedicate this to you 'cause you sort of encouraged me to write this stuff in the first place. Even though I'm terrible at writing stories.

Disclaimer: Why would you think I own something amazing as this game?

Drabble #1 - Rick and Karen and a surprise - Plushies and Terrible Singing

"Lillia, where's Rick?" the auburn haired girl asked. She stood in at the entrance of the Poultry Farm. As usual, she was there that Sunday to visit Rick then head to the Harvest's Goddess' lake. The two were childhood friends and more recently, dating.

"Oh, he's in the chicken coop. He'll be out soon." Lillia answered. "Would you like to go and visit him anyways?" Karen did a quick nod.

"Okay, just make sure you don't do anything in there." Karen nodded again, trying to hide the blush begin to show on her cheeks.

"Thanks."

-o-

She had arrived at the large barn Rick's family called their chicken coop, empty because the chickens were outside. "Rick, you here?" she called out. No response. Huh.

"I have to tell you something very important." She heard a faint voice say. Was that Rick? Who was he talking to?

Stepping in further, stepping in straws of hay scattered on the ground, she tried to locate her maybe-unfaithful boyfriend. "I love you." She heard him say.

What?! She ignored that feeling of her heart breaking into a thousand pieces. She could see a faint light coming from one of the rooms; her and Rick's secret place. "He brought someone in there too…" she whispered to herself, feeling tears at the edges of her eyes.

Peeking through a crack of the door, she saw Rick with his back turned, humming the tune to "Just The Way You Are" to a figure in front of him. She mentally argued with herself about whether she should step in or not.

In the end, she chose the former.

"K-Karen!" Rick exclaimed, a blush on his cheeks. He pushed whoever he was talking to behind him and under a blue blanket. "Uh, it's not what it looks like!"

"You're cheating on me?" she questioned quietly.

"What? No! Of course not!" he answered.

"Then show me what you're hiding." Karen spoke, heading towards his blanket.

"Wait, Karen!" the blanket was pulled from his grasp. She blushed at first, seeing that he was only in a white t-shirt and in chicken-patterned boxers. Then she started laughing hysterically, and it was Rick's turn to blush. "Stop laughing! It's not funny!" She saw him gripping a chicken plushie tightly in his arms, wrapping it up with a hug.

"Of course it's not funny. It's absolutely hilarious! What were you doing with a chicken plushie?" she asked, still chuckling quietly. She saw his mouth move, but she couldn't hear a word he was saying. "What?"

"I, er… Was pretending it was you."

"A chicken plushie equals me?" she questioned. She didn't notice him pulling something out of his pocket.

"Karen." He said, holding a Blue Feather in front of her. "I love you. Would you, eh… marry me?"

The brunette stood there, dumbfounded. Rick averted his gaze; he couldn't possibly be even redder than he already was. "Yes. Yes!" she yelled suddenly, pulling the blonde into a hug. He started to sing the lyrics of "Just The Way You Are".

"Rick, please stop singing. No offense, but your singing is terrible." She could feel him nod and she hugged him tighter.

The chicken plushie leaned next to the door, and if it was real, it would be smiling uncontrollably because of the couple's beautiful happiness. Until it was knocked over by Popuri, who was looking for her lost chicken doll, and then yelled at Rick for stealing it, breaking their moment.

Err... Yeah. So that's it. ouo
