Radiant Farmer:

Best Friends

"Gray what types of girls do you like." asked Cliff. He was eating his favorite dish.

Gray looked at him and stared for a few seconds and thought. Who could fit the bill?

"I don't know… it's like a girl I could like never existed." Gray answered thinking of anybody who could fit the bill.

"Well tell me her possible traits." Cliff suggested. He then continued to bite his food.

Gray paused for a second and then looked at Cliff. What's up with the hundred questions?

"Well… a blond… smart… kind… graceful… talented… understanding… lovable… and the most important one is if that person can make me fall in love with her… but I find it hard." Gray said as he looked into his baked corn.

"Oh" Cliff answered with a sigh.

"Now I told you mine, tell me yours." Gray said trying to forget the other lonely question.

"Umm… a good chef, a cute face, understanding, sweet and umm…" Cliff answered and started to mutter 'Umm'

"Umms for the poor…" Grays said jokingly.

"Warmhearted" Cliff said as he took a bite from his food.

Then after Gray and Cliff ate breakfast, Gray looked at the door and stared at it for a long time.

I bet Claire would most likely be caring for her crops… well I should go to the mine… yeah… that might be nice for me. Gray thought.

Gray stood up and walked over to the door and when he opened it he saw Claire and Ann. WHAT THE FUCK… WHAT'S SHE DOING HERE???

The two girls were talking about the day they first met. Claire was said to have no friends but Ann seems to know her well.

"Hi Gray…" Greeted Claire, for some reason she's more enthusiastic and cheerful.

"Hi Claire… so how's your farm?" asked Gray"(I don't like asking about the weather so I'd better ask about her farm instead) are you still having fun." He continued.

"I'm having fun. Because it's clean, my animals seem to be attached to me." Claire cheerfully answered.

Ann looked at them… and Cliff approached them while Gray and Claire were talking about Claire's farm.

"Hey Cliff… it seems like those two are close." Ann stated while she stared at the blonds who were chatting.

"Yeah… They seem like they know a lot about each other." Cliff agreed with a nod.

"Ann, I have only met Claire once before." Gray said. Ok how the fuck did they get that idea?!? Thought Gray

"Yes we met only once before, Ann." Claire added as she tried to push Gray away.

Do we really seem close, well we get along well together? Gray thought not noticing Claire pushing him away.

"Gray can you do me a favor?" asked Claire as she tugged Gray's jacket. Then making Gray land on Doug's sign and practically braking it.

"Uhh… sure…" Gray muttered "oww" he continued.

I wonder why would she ask something from me??? Gray thought. He stared at her with his normal pissed eyes but he did not notice her shaking fingers and sudden paleness.

"Can you please show me around town?" requested Claire.

"Sure at least I get to kill some time." Gray muttered. Still not surprised nor shocked

"Thanks." Claire said thankfully

WHAT DID I JUST SAY… thought Gray

"Well Gray… lets go…" said Claire shyly

Then the blonds left the inn. Gray showed Claire to the front of the library

"Hi Gray" said a black haired Girl with eyeglasses.

"Hi Mary" Gray said with his normal expression and then felt Claire tug his jacket. "Mary meet Claire… Claire meet Mary." Said Gray dryly. Do I have to introduce them to each other??? The blond thought.

When Mary went back into the library… "this is where I usually spend my time in… the library." Gray said looking pissed.

Then by the time they went to the super market

"*CRASH* ohwsowwy Gwayyyy I wust gwhat wintwo a dwinkwing cwompe- *hic* twition with Dwuke." (Translation: oh sorry Gray I just got into a drinking competition with Duke.) The drunken Karen said practically falling into Claire's small frames.

"EPP!!!" Claire shrieked. "GRAY!!! HELP ME GET THIS GIRL OFF ME!!! PLEASE" Claire shrieked as she began to smell the scent of red wine.

"OK, OK, I'll get Karen off you." Gray smiled at Claire as if he was mocking her.

When Gray was getting the drunken Karen off Claire Sasha, Karen's mother went and grabbed her and said "sorry for Karen's awkward behavior she always gets into drinking competitions with duke trying to beat him… and succeeding." Then the two girls disappeared into the supermarket.

"Oh and Claire… this is the supermarket… beware though… when Karen's drunk you don't wanna get involved with her." Gray said dumbfounded.

went to the clinic and they saw Trent and Elli getting out of the clinic.

"oh hi Claire how's Ja-" said Elli as she was disturbed by Claire who cupped Elli's mouth.

"EJ is fine, he's been eating a lot of chicken feeds lately…" Claire said and then she whispered something to Elli's ears.

"Ahh ok…" Elli said

"I wonder what they're talking about." Trent said.

"Probably girl stuff… and again… Claire this is the clinic… where Elli and Trent work." Gray said dryly.

The next location they went to was the church where Carter invited the two to listen to his sermon.

"There was once a boy who was asked by his mother to buy sugar. So the boy went and bought the sugar, on his way home the boy dropped the sugar in the sewer so he went to get it. His mother saw what he was doing and told the son ' son don't get the sugar it dirty.'

Then the son left the sugar behind. The next day the boy and mother went for a walk and the boy dropped a few coins. He went down to get it and his mother again said 'son don't get it its dirty.' So the son left the coins.

The following day the mother fell into the sewer and the boy's friend went to him and said 'your mother fell into the sewer… let get her out of the sewer.'

'no don't get it it's dirty.' The boy said." Carter paused from telling the tale then said "this is the irony of what a mother tells her child."

Both Claire and Gray were dumbfounded and slowly moved backwards. "nice meeting you Claire." Carter said.

After going there they went to the rose square.

"Claire this is the rose square where the people gather for a festival."Gray said was he pointed at the bulletin board.

"What's this… a bachelor-bachelorette ball???" asked Claire as she read the bulletin board. "a special event for thanksgiving day… Gray is the thanksgiving day the one where families get together and eat turkey?" she continued.

"no this one is the one where boys give the girls they like chocolates or chocolate cookies." Gray said.

"Ohh… what a relief…" Claire muttered.

"Huh???" asked Gray.

"Nothing… it's a secret with me and a few girls that I met before." Claire said.

"But I thought you had only a few friends…" Gray asked.

"Yeah although I have a few friends my friends here are Ann, Elli, Zack and May." Claire stated.

"Ok, let's go to the beach." Gray suggested.

Then the two went to beach and proceeded to the dock.

"Gray… thanks for showing me around town… thanks for being a good friend." Claire said to Gray

"Well I don't want you to get lost, since you are new here..." replied Gray

Wait did she just call me, a good friend… thought Gray

"Gray is it ok if you become my best friend…" asked Claire

"*blushes* you're best f-f-friend!?!" muttered Gray

"Why you don't want me to be your best friend." Claire pouted.

"UMM… it's just that I never had any best friends before…" Gray said.

"Oh… I see, I guess not then, we-" Claire said but was interrupted.

"I did not say anything like that… of coarse I'll be your best friend." Gray said cutting Claire off.

WHAT THE… FUCK, did I just say that thought Gray

"Well… I have one last place to show you… and it's almost time too." Said Gray

"Huh???" asked Claire

Then suddenly Gray Grabbed Claire's hand and ran to the mother's hill peak.

"The sunset… it's pretty." Stated Claire

"Yeah it is." Gray replied

"Gray… thank you so much"

"Today was fun."

"Well let's go back now."

"*Growling stomach* *blink, blink*" Growled Gray and Claire's stomachs in unison.

"Hahahahahahaha." The two laughed in unison

"Gray, as thank you for showing me around town I'll cook your dinner." Said Claire

"Ok… wait in your home?" asked Gray

"yeah."

"ok"

Then after watching the sunset they both went to Claire's house. Gray looked at how clean one side of Claire's field, but the other side was a mess.

"Wow you work hard." Gray said

"Yeah… Look it's my chicken Bulbanok, EJ and Lil' tweet" said Claire

"Bulbanok… is that a name or some kind of Pokémon and Philippine chicken the 'Manok'." Laughed Gray

"Yeah."

Then the 3 chickens jumped to Claire's direction. And Claire hugged all 3 chickens.

"You love you're animals, that's why they love you back." Concluded Gray

"You may be right Gray." Claire Added.

Then Claire placed the Chickens into the coop and they went into Claire's home.

A small house and a big room cool, I want to know how this could even be possible. Thought Gray

"You know what Gray I love it here the outside is small but the inside is big." Said Claire

Then they Went to the kitchen and ate dinner, they talked about lots of things and they had fun the whole time.

"Claire it's late I need to go now… Bye-bye." Gray said and then he left.

When he arrived at the inn he saw Cliff and Ann talking.

"Hi guys." Greeted Gray

"Hi" greeted Ann

"Hello" Greeted Cliff.

"So Gray how was your date with Claire?" asked Ann

"Who the fuck gave you that idea huh???" asked Gray

"Uumm… we just thought so…" said Cliff fearfully

Then Gray went to his room and slept.
