"Claire, wake up!" A familiar voice said, definitely Mary's

"We're gonna be late!" another voice said, Pop's

"Huh..?" I answered opening my eyes

"Mornin' sleepyhead" another voice, a guy's greeted, let me see, I told you before that this voice is always familiar to me, Kai's

"Ugh..what are you doing here, Kai?" I said sitting up and rubbing my eyes

"What's the harm?" he replied

"Nothing..." I said

"Hey guys, let's go!" Pop said "Your last period is Pre-calculus with Mrs. Chris, Claire." she continued

"WHAT!" I burst. Math is not a favorite subject of mine, seriously. Everybody jumped then looked confused as to why I just screamed so suddenly.

"Wha-whats wrong?" Cliff then came. Gosh, he probably heard me scream from across the campus, well, good job Claire, you humiliated yourself on the first day.

"A-ah, it's nothing, I just..um..hate math..and stuff.." I stuttered, stupid me screaming and stuff!

"Oh..your next subject is Pre-cal?" he asked

"Y-yeah." I replied blushing,

"That's mine too, we could..um..go together..if you want.." he asked. I brightened up, well maybe Pre-cal isn't gonna be so bad. Then I saw Pop and Mary grinning at me, so was Kai.

"Sure!" I answered cheerfully. Then Kai chuckled.

"Well, how bout you Pop, what's your next class?" he then asked

"I've got Home Ec with Mary's Mom." she answered. Oh yeah, Mrs. Anna is Mary's mom, she's the Home Ec teacher here.

"Cool. That's also my next period, let's go together." He offered, showing his oh so gorgeous smile again.

"S-sure!" Pop agreed, blushing. Here we go again with Popuri being so naive

"So Mary what's your next period?" I then asked

"Oh, I have Home Economics too, I'll just go with Elli." she replied winking at Pop. She giggle and mouthed a "thanks"

"Alright, I'll see you guys later" I waved and them and they waved back heading the other direction. "So..um, let's go" I said to Cliff shyly. He nodded and we went of. We walked in silence for a bit.

"So, Cliff..how's Manna and Duke?" I asked trying to make small talk

"Their okay, I guess" he replied. Silence again

"Why'd you move here in Mineral Town? I mean surely this place isn't as popular as it seems." I asked again

"Well, I like to travel..and..well, I think this place is great, surrounded by nature and all." he replied again, he was smiling a bit. I'm guessing he's one of those "I love nature" people, good thing he's not a hippie. They creep me out a bit. Like Gustafa, yeah. He's weird sometimes.

"Cool. But unfortunately, it gets kinda boring don't you think?" I said, still wondering why he would like to live here. I mean, I would like to see other areas, but unfortunately, I can't. The only way to go to another place is by boat. And it's either from phone call, which will take around 3 days for the boat to arrive and a lot of expenses, or by Zack and his not so nice boat. Yeah, I'd rather not leave just for a vacation.

"Nah. I like it here. It's peace and quiet, I love the nature." he answered. "Must be awesome to live in a farm, huh?" he then asked

"What? Yeah right! It's so hard, even though I'm just helping my brother" I replied folding my arms. He chuckled. God, he is so cute!

"Well, I would think it's nice. Working in the grapery is cool too." he said. We were then reaching Mrs. Chris's room.

"Hey, there it is, ugh. I can't wait for Pre-calculus.." I sulked. Cliff chuckled again.

"It's not gonna be that bad, I think." he said with a small grin

"Yeah right, last year, we only had algebra and it was way hard! How's Pre-cal gonna be any different." I said still sulking. He just shook his head smiling at me as we sat down on the table. Behind us was Gray and Rick.

"Hey, guys!" Rick greeted

"Hey Rick." Cliff nodded

"Hey, chicken face" I said, and snickered when Rick looked annoyed. I saw Gray hiding a laugh, Cliff was grinning, probably hiding a laugh too.

"Harhar, very funny, Claire." he said, folding his arms in annoyance.

"Hey, I was just joking, you don't have to be so mad about it." I apologized, still snickering a little. Gray looked away, definitely trying to hide his laughter. Rick grunted. Then the bell rang. Everybody quieted down, and the teacher came in. Mrs. Chris, 's wife, is a nice and kind teacher. I like her, even though I hate her subject.

"Good Afternoon, children." she greeted. Then everybody greeted her back in unison. After an hour of studying about numbers and..stuff, the bell finally rang.

"Well that's all for today kids, I will see you again next time" she said and everybody rushed out.

"Finally, last period is over! I could take a rest, too bad we have heaps of homework to do! Ugh!" I said stretching. Cliff smiled. Man, he keeps smiling a lot now, and he's so cute!

"Yeah, I know." he said

"Claaaiiree!" somebody called, definitely Pop.

"Guess that's my cue, I'll see you later, Claire." he nodded and walked off to where Gray is. Their probably walking together, with Kai maybe. Gray and Kai always walk together after school.

"Okay, bye!" I waved cheerfully.

"Oooh! Looks like you two are starting to get cozy!" Pop teased. I didn't answer, I was still looking dreamily as Cliff walked off with Gray and Kai catching up. I sighed dreamily

"Claire." I didn't answer

"CLAIRE!" This time I jumped, then looked behind, Pop was looking annoyed, Mary was beside her already, giggling

"W-what?" I asked seeming like I woke up from a long nap. Pop sighed and Mary just smiled. I looked confused.

"Let's go! Already" Pop then said, as she put on her roller skates. I then unlocked my bike. Mary didn't have any gear so I offered her to ride on my bike.

"Alright let's go!" I said and we rode off. After a few conversations about stuff, we reached the peak on Mother's Hill, then we passed by Gotz's house first and passed Rose Square so that I can drop off Mary, we said our goodbyes and see ya laters and went straight ahead to the entrance of Midnight Sun Farm. I waved at Popuri as she went left to their farm. Chicken Lil's.

"I'll see you tomorrow, Claire!" she said as I entered our farm waving back. Finally, home. I could use a rest for a while. I then parked my bike beside our dog Max's doghouse. Then entered our nice cottage.

"I'm home!" I said as I opened the door. No reply. Huh. I checked the time. 4:00 P.M. I guess Jill's not home yet, probably hanging out with her friends for a bit. Hmm, then were's Jack? He's gotta be here by now...

"Yo! His voice greeted coming from the kitchen, well guess that's my answer

"Hey Jack!" I greeted back as I flopped on the couch

"How was school?" he asked while opening the fridge

"Cool. At music class, I get to play the ocarina again, and at P.E, I won first in the 3 lap race." I replied cheerfully

"That's great, Claire. Guess you beat Popuri this time huh?" he said chuckling as he took some other stuff from the fridge.

"Yup!" I answered "So what's for dinner?" I then asked, eying all those ingredients he took out, he was now preparing some utensils

"I'm thinking, Stir Fry." he replied know chopping some veggies.

"Awesome!" I said. He smiled as a reply. He makes the best stir fry. Well, I guess he makes the best stuff. I can't wait to eat!

"Hey guys! I'm home!" the door opened and in came our little sister

"Hey, Jill" I greeted absentmindedly, clearly I was watching my favorite TV show, Glee.

"Mmmm! That smells good, big brother!" Jill said sniffing on Jack's cooking

"Thanks. So how was your first day, Jill?" he said as he cooked

"Great! Most of my classmates are from Forget-Me-Not Valley so I kinda know some of them" she replied excitedly

"That's nice.." Jack said

"Oh and I get to play the violin! Isn't that awesome? I love the violin!" she then said, I tugged in a smile and clearly she saw it. Then again she sharpened her eyes at me.

"What?" I said, hiding a laugh

"Nothing!" she replied, annoyed again

"What's going on?" Jack asked

"Oh nothin' bro." I replied smiling. Jill snorted.

"I'm going to my room now!" she then stormed off upstairs. I snickered a little.

"What's with her?" Jack asked confused. I just shrugged and laid my eyes back on the TV. I wonder why she's so mad about that? I was just teasing her. Maybe she doesn't like that Skye kid. Huh, I think he's got looks, but yeah, he seems like a flirt and they may get annoying. Oh well, who cares.

After a few minutes of watching a double episode of Glee, dinner was finally served. Jack's stir fry smelled like heaven!

"Alright! Let's eat!" I said digging in. Jack chuckled and as well, Jill still looked pouty but ate as well. We usually eat like this. Quietly. But it's alright, we like to eat in silence rather than in chaos. After eating, It was my turn washing the dishes. After that I said good night to my siblings and went to my room. Jill replied a "G'night" as she also went back to her room. Jack nodded as he went out to the farm for a bit. He usually goes out to check to animal's and stuff. When I went in, I did my tremendous amount of homework and flopped on my bed.

"What a day, it was nice meeting that Cliff guy." I smiled as I turned off the lights and slept soundly.
