At Six o'clock, Silvex finished unpacking and was now properly settled into his new home. The sandwich he had eaten earlier made him feel better. Maybe the strange vision and dream were all just from the stress and anxiety of moving into a new home. Being hungry didn't help.

He decided to get a move on and started his way back to the town. The sun was setting over the Gem Sea, and it was quite the sight.

"Beautiful." Silvex said admiring the Sunset as he slowly walked on. He arrived at the town, walked into the Plaza, and past the saloon. He looked at the sign.

The Stardrop Saloon

Silvex paused for a moment. "Well… that's pretty over-glorified naming for such an old run down building." Silvex said examining the structure. it had seen better days, and wasn't something to brag about.

He continued on, and walked past a pen, with some sort of box in it.

DOG

It said in big and bold painted red letters. 'Guess there wasn't enough space for 'Beware of'?' Silvex thought as he walked up to Alex's house, River Road 1. He knocked on the door.

"Coming!" Evelyn's voice rang out. Silvex smiled, and waited patiently. A moment later, Evelyn opened the door. "Oh hello, Silvex! Alex told me all about you, come in! He's been waiting for you."

'Really?' Silvex thought as he walked in. To his right, was the living room, where George was watching something on the television. To the right, was the kitchen, where Alex was doing the dishes from dinner.

"Heya, Silvex!" Alex called out when he heard Evelyn greeting the blonde. Silvex smiled.

"Hi, Alex" SIlvex said as he sat down in one of the chairs. Evelyn sat next to him. "So how are you, Evelyn?"

"I am doing alright. I'm not really feeling well right now, so Alex volunteered to clean up after dinner tonight. He's such a sweetie," She said, smiling fondly. "He helps a lot around here too. He's been a big help even since George's accident."When She said that her smile had faded.

"Well, I'm sorry to hear that. You don't need to tell me if it's too painful for you, I respect that." Silvex said calmly and gently

Evelyn smiled just a little. "Thank you, dear." She said as she got up. "Care for some tea?" She asked.

"He's not an old person like you, grandma." Alex chuckled as he was washing dishes. Silvex could not tear his eyes away from that butt of his.

He blushed as he looked away as Evelyn set up the tea kettle on the stove. "I'll take some Starleaf Tea if you have some," Silvex asked.

Alex only laughed more as Evelyn perked up. "That's my favorite kind!" She chirped happily as she started up the burner.

"Well, it's actually quite nice, Alex," Silvex said. "You wanna try some?"

"Oh don't ask. I drink it too," Alex said as he finished the dishes and sat across from Silvex. Finally, Silvex didn't have the temptation of that butt, but now he had a new problem, Alex's eyes.

Silvex fought his body to keep from blushing under the gaze of those beautiful eyes as Evelyn waited for the water to boil.

"So how's the farm?" Alex asked. "Getting a good workout from it?"

"Not too much, but I'm sure there will be a ton of more work as the farm grows." Silvex said.

"Even then, you've got quite the body there. Were the girls all over you in the city?" Alex asked.

'Wait… Why am I so interested in that?'

"Funny you should ask, I would get a lot of calls, messages and pick up lines from the ladies all the time," Silvex said.

"Ahhh, the local ladies man I presume?" Alex teased.

"Sh-shut up!" Silvex blushed a bit. "They were just after me for my looks." Silvex added.

"Wouldn't blame them," Alex said.

'D-Did he just…?'

"Thanks," Silvex said as Evelyn gave him and Alex their cups, and poured them the freshly brewed tea. She served herself a cup and sat down with them.

After an hour, Evelyn yawned. "I think I'm going to bed early. Don't be too loud boys." She said as she walked down the hallway.

"Goodnight Evelyn." Silvex said.

"Night Grandma," Alex said getting up and washing his cup. Silvex did the same. "Say, you want me to show you my room?" Alex offered.

"I'd be happy to." Silvex said happily. Alex nodded, and Silvex followed the brunette down the hall. Alex opened the door to the right. The farmer assumed the door to the left was Evelyn's room.

"Well, here it is!" Alex said as Silvex looked around. Definitely had an athlete's feel to it. There was a bookshelf, but it looked very dusty. He saw a set of weights, a Gridball, and a Gridball helmet.

"Gridball fan?" Silvex asked.

secs ago"Oh man, You have no idea. One day, I'm gonna be a professional player!" Alex said with a cocky smirk on his face.

'Cuuuuute,' Silvex thought as Alex sat on his bed with the Gridball in his hands.

"So why'd you leave the city?" Alex asked.

"It was all too much for me. I swear I was going to turn into dust cooped up in that wretched office," Silvex said. "My grandfather left me his farm when he passed away, and only just two days ago, did I just inherit it. Hopefully, I'll live up to his name."

"Sounds like fun," Alex teased. "Doing all that plowing, and tending and all that farm work... At least it's good for your body."

"Stop it!" Silvex blushed as he tackled Alex to the ground.

"Oh, you wanna wrestle huh?" Alex teased, but to his dismay, found that Silvex wasn't so easy to submit.

The two threw mock insults at each other before they grew too tired to keep wrestling, so they called it a draw, and laid on the floor, panting.

"You're not a bad wrestler farmer guy," Alex said.

"Oh, hush you," Silvex panted out. Alex chuckled.

"I love you so much Silvex."

"I love you too Alex."

"Promise me one thing?"

"Yes?"

"Silvex?"

Silvex blinked. Was he hearing things? He looked over at Alex. "Yes?"

"I said did you join a wrestling team in your high school back in the city?" Alex asked again.

"Oh, well I did consider it, but then I abandoned the thought. I was too worried over my grades to consider an elective like that." Silvex stated.

"Oh." Alex said as they continued to stare at the ceiling. "Well it's getting pretty late, you want me to walk you back to your place?" Alex asked.

"I'd like that." Silvex smiled. The two boys got up and walked out of Alex's room, and left his house. The sun was long gone now, and the stars in the sky took its place. Silvex smiled as he gazed at them.

"Stargaze much?" Alex asked.

"Yeah, I love stargazing. They're so beautiful…" Silvex said, lost in the beauty of the stars.

"Well, Stardew Valley is the best place for Stargazing." Alex said, looking up at the stars as well.

Silvex drew close to Alex. But not too close.

Alex noticed this. Usually, he would feel a little creeped out at how close a guy would get, but… He didn't mind at all.

All too soon, they arrived at Silvex's house. "Pretty run down, ain't it?" Alex said.

"Yeah. Don't worry, it'll be good as new with a little help from Robin." Silvex said.

"Well alright then. Goodnight." Alex said as he began the trek back to the town.

"Goodnight, Alex!" Silvex called out as he walked into his house. He was pretty beat from that wrestling earlier, so he stripped off his clothes except for his boxers, and got into his bed.

He closed his eyes, and drifted off, thinking about Alex…


"GREOOOOOO!"

The sound of a blood-curdling scream fills the air. A figure was being attacked by five slime monsters. The figure gets up, and with a worn sword, stabs two of the slimes on his leg. Enraged, and fueled on adrenaline, The figure impaled the other two slimes, and faced the one that had screamed earlier before. The last smile quivers in fear as the figure brings his weapon down, and turns the slimy monster into nothing more, than DUST.

The figure sheaths his sword. While bleeding badly, the figure pulled himself up the ladder, and walked out of the dark mines it was in. He trundled along the mountain path, and stops by a blue house. Not far off, an athletic Brunette was talking with a blonde girl.

The brunette had a gray tank top on, drenched in sweat. He was wearing blue Gym shorts, his hair glistening in the rays of evening sun.

The figure Smiled, despite in grave pain. The brunette notices the figure and ran towards him with a concerned look. The last thing The figure remembers, is the poison in his system, the countless bites he had, and how beautiful the Brunette looked with that concerned face.


Silvex shifted and grumbled in his sleep. Unaware someone was watching him. A figure stood over him, watching him for a long time, before he whispered to himself,

"This is the one. He is indeed, The savior of Stardew Valley, and Warrior of the stars."

The figure lightly tapped Silvex's forehead with his fingers glowing neon green, then left, mysteriously vanishing into the darkness.


There you have it! The following dream is linked to MarchingBandOfManhattan's Story, so extra point to those who can guess which Chapter it is from.

And with that, being two in the morning, I bid you, goodnight.
