Smarts Ain't Everything That's Important
Epilogue: Fish Out of Water
Dylan walked downstairs to his and Leia's room, carrying Leia bridal-style, this time for the real thing. He was walking over to put Lea back in her tank, but she started flipping in his arms.
"No, no, no," she shouted. "Don't put me in the tank, put me in bed."
Dylan stared blankly at her, his eyes wide.
Leia scoffed. "Never mind. I'll do it myself," she said. She jerked herself out of Dylan's grip and landed on the floor. She proceeded to half-drag, half-slither her way to the bed.
Dylan just watched Leia. When she had pulled herself into the bed, he blurted out, "But aren't mermaids supposed to stay in water?"
Leia stared at him for a minute. Then she started laughing. "Oh, Dylan, you silly. I'm not a fish. I can breathe above water," she said. She stopped laughing and blushed. "Besides, aren't a husband and wife supposed to sleep together?"
Dylan turned scarlet. "Well, yes, but I figured you would be more comfortable in the water," he said, looking down at his shoes.
Leia giggled and stretched a hand towards Dylan. "Then come on. Let us sleep together, honey," she said.
Dylan carefully walked over. He slid in bed slowly. However, when he found himself lying next to Leia, he felt more comfortable.
That night, husband and wife both slept peacefully.
Okay, that's the end of it. I hope you liked the story.
Okay, before I go away, maybe I should explain a few things. One, Dylan was fifteen at the beginning of the story, and three years, at least, passed in the story. 15+3=18, it's legal that he married Leia. Second, why put Leia in the bed? Because I find it stupid that she sits in the duck pond in the game. I would think the requirement for her would be for Daryl to build you an aquarium, not buy a duck pond. Besides, hopefully not offending anyone, how the heck does Leia get pregnant if she sits out in the pond all the time.
Also, as a bonus, seeing how Leia is living downstairs, she can't be blown away by a storm (which is another stupid game feature).
Anyways, I might write another Harvest Moon story, but I have other stories to attend to for now.
Until next time.
Mission Complete.
