Hey!
Thank you for everyone who's reviewed!

Now. Announcement – I'm going on holiday for a week. You have a longer chapter than my Tokyo Mew Mew fanfic readers, but you have a cliffhanger.

It was just the way my ideas worked. :D

Harvest Moon is not mine, I do not own any characters used in this story.
I guess it's probably because nobody would buy the games if I owned it.
Sigh.
Poof!

Jane's POV

I turned my light off and closed my eyes, thoughts of Skye filling my head at once.

The way he looked at night, his voice, his smile, his sparkling green eyes, the way the moonlight made his hair shimmer…

I sighed happily. I was sure I would have an awesome dream, and I was looking forward to it no doubt.
When I finally drifted into a deep sleep, I was right – There was Skye.

He was next to the goddess pond, the top button of his shirt undone, looking up at the stars. Then he closed his eyes, and blushed, as if he was thinking of something embarrassing or cute. I giggled. He stood up, and brushed himself down, smiling.
"I've been waiting for you." He said.

I looked around. Waiting for who?

I turned back and his piercing green eyes were locked on mine. I realized he'd been waiting for me. I blushed. He smiled, walking forward. The moonlight shimmered across his hair, his pale face, the top of his chest… I could hardly breathe.

He was so gorgeous, especially with a smile. A smile for my eyes only.

He reached out and pushed my hair out of my eyes, much like he had in real life. But then he stroked my cheek with the back of his hand. His touch was soft, gentle, loving.

I knew that in my dream, he was mine.

I lowered my gaze to the ground, feeling bashful. He laughed. A laugh that made my heartbeat quicken every second.

He stopped, and took my hands in his.
"Jane…" he said, suddenly serious.

"Yes?" I whispered. I realized I had actually stopped breathing. I took a deep breath and looked deep into his eyes once more.

"Jane…" he murmured again.
"Yes?" I said louder.

"Jane… Jane, I told you to leave me alone!" He said, stepping back, his voice getting louder.
I felt tears in my eyes.

"But Skye, I don't want to!" I said, clasping my hands as a tear rolled down my cheek.

"I told you to! Now they're coming! They're coming for you! They're coming for me!"

"Who's coming? Who?!" I screamed frantically, tears rushing in an endless stream now.

Then he cupped my cheek with his hand and wiped my tears away.

"Go now." He murmured, looking straight at me.
"Go where? Who's coming?" I asked, taking his other hand.

"Just go. As far as you can. They're coming."
"Skye! Where! Where do I go?! Tell me! Please!"

"Just go!" Skye said, pulling away from me.
"Run, Jane! Run!"

I woke up, tears all down my face, and breathing heavily. I sat up in bed quickly to get myself a drink. It was just as I was going to turn on the light that I heard the voices.

Vesta's. Carter's. Griffin's.

"She knows where he is!"

"She's hiding him!"

"Imagine hiding a thief from your friends! Little bitch!"

Then I heard Celia's frantic voice.
"But… But she hasn't… You have no proof… It's not like that… Jane wouldn't…" She stammered, constantly being interrupted.

I froze. The dream... Skye.

I had to get out of this place, now.

I got up, and carefully peeked out of the window. I saw the four of them, just going past Takakura's. Well, the front door wasn't an option.

I hurried over to the back window, and opened it quietly.

I was so glad I'd left my dog in the bird shed. There was apparently a fox in the village, and my dog was surprisingly well behaved around my ducks and hens.

I climbed quickly out of the window. If I wasn't so terrified, I would have laughed. I felt incredibly silly climbing out of my window in my pajamas and fluffy sheep slippers.

I could hear them, banging at the door. I crouched down low, praying they wouldn't come round the back. I had a thought, and closed my window. If they saw it was open then they'd know for sure I'd heard them and got away.

Luckily, (Well. as lucky as you can get when your friends roommates have turned against you) they didn't bother checking the back. Carter and Griffin started doing the manly thing and tried to batter the door down, but I heard Vesta yell at them and push them aside, banging the door open herself.

She was a terrifying woman.

When I was sure they'd all gone inside, I ran.
I ran faster than I had before. Ever.

Adrenaline was pumping through my veins, and I felt it with ever step I took.

My mouth was dry, my legs were threatening to give in but I pushed them to their limit. My muscles burned. But I knew I had to get far away. I headed towards the forest. It would be hard for anyone to find me there.

I didn't really think about how I'd get out at that point in time.

I got into a clearing. I bent over, breathing heavily.
Then my vision faded, and I fell into black.
