I do not own Harvest Moon, Claire, Trent, or Elli. Or any of the other bachelors. This is purely for entertainment purposes. Blah blah blah.
Something is wrong. Seriously wrong.
My hands gripped the side of the porcelain toilet, my knuckles white from grasping to hard. I never get sick. I haven't gotten sick in almost 5 years!
I can't even think of the last time I threw up, it was so long ago.
Shaking, I stood up from the floor and flushed the toilet. I walked over to the sink to rinse my mouth out, trying to decide what to do. If I went to the clinic and it was really nothing, I just wasted a whole week's worth of farming. And I really needed all the money I could get right now, since I spent most of my money buying a cow and some fodder for her.
Looking up at the mirror, I realized how pale my face looked right now, even with my farmer tan. I sighed and wiped my hands on the red towel draped over the side of the tub. I hardly got out of the bathroom door before I felt quesy again. Groaning, I went back down on all fours, and crawled along the hardwood floor. I shoved my head over the toilet once more, trying to ignore the awful smell of vomit. I closed my eyes and rested my head against the cold rim, praying that this was only a hangover from the night before, even though I only had one cup of wine.

This is bad. I thought.This is really bad.
Elli looked at me apologetically.
"You can get married before anyone really knows. We won't tell anyone, if that is the case." She said reassuringly. I almost believed her for a second, with her sweet peaceful smile and soothing voice.
"But who is the father?" She asked politely. "That is, if you don't mind telling me."
"Uh..."
I actually have to think about this?!
"It's.."
I racked my brain for the possible father. The more I thought about it, the worst it got. There were 4 potential fathers!
"I'm... Not so sure..."
I said, shifting uncomfortably in the rickety chair. Elli's eyes widened.
"You don't know?!" She exclaimed, a little louder than I would have liked.
"Shh!" I said, jumping out of the seat to clamp a hand over her mouth. "No, I don't. It's either.. Kai, Gray, Cliff, or.." I shuddered.
"Or?"
"...Rick.."
Elli's eyes got wider, if that's even possible.
"Ladies? Am I interrupting something?"
I gasped and Elli spun around to meet her coworker.
"How much of that did you hear!?" I demanded, shaking so hard my legs were knocking together.
"I-I just came in!" The doctor stammered "I didn't hear anything!"
"O-ohh.. Sorry.." I said, flushing as I scampered back to my seat. I'm never that rude! What's wrong with me?
"Ah.. Anyways.." The doctor started again once I was back in the plastic chair. "It's exciting news!" He said, smiling.
Oh no. I inhaled sharply, taking in the scent of the doctor's office.
"It's a very special circumstance, actually." He continued, beaming. "This is the first time I've ever dealt with this! Very exciting indeed."
Will he just shut up?! "Get to the point!" I snapped impatiently.
"O-oh." He stammered, taken aback." Well. Uh, yes you are pregnant."
My stomach dropped. I felt sick again. I stared down at the checkered floor as tears began to obscure my vision. I wasn't ready for a baby! Elli reached over to hold my hand, and squeezed it hard.
"..With twins."
Neat idea, right? I had fun writing it. I think I'll start on the second chapter, even if no one likes it. Please review, because the more people who review and give me constructive critiscm/compliments, the more likely I am to write the next chapter! Oh, and I know it probably isn't perfect. But I had to work up a lot of guts to put it on here. A fanfic isn't a lot of good if it's just taking up space on my computer, after all. Thanks for reading, hope you enjoyed it!
