Author's Note: Hello guys! Thanks for reviewing, if you did. I'm trying to create a fanimation… And…it's kinda—no, hard!! You have to do all sorts of stuff. Well, I'll inform all readers about the things I'm making that includes Harvest Moon or any of my creations. And yes, please PM me or write a review for the story about who Claire will end up with. :) Thank you so much for all your support! Anyway, this chapter continues chapter 8, when Claire and Cliff were having a date in Cliff's house. Enjoy!

Chapter 10- Claire:

"Thank you too." He replied.

"Oh wait! I almost forgot… I still have dessert." He continued.

There, he handed me a perfectly prepared dish.

"T-This is great." I said, as I looked at him.

"I prepared it just for you, Claire." He replied back.

"Thank you…" I answered as I gazed into his eyes, I got lost in it.

We ate the perfect meal.

"Claire…" he started, "I—I…"

"You what?" I asked, curios.

"I—I like you." He replied, as he gave me a warm smile.

"I—I like you too." I answered.

"But Claire, from Gray and me… who do you like more?" he said, as I began to freeze, thinking about the answer.

"Umm—Cliff, that's a hard question." I answered back.

"Think about it. I really want you to be my girlfriend." He protested.

"Okay… I just…really don't know." I murmured.

"Gray… I just—" I paused, as I was interrupted by Cliff.

"Gray?" he asked.

"Oh! Um—s-sorry. I—I'm just used to—." I paused once more as he interrupted.

"You're used to him…" Cliff said, as he gloomed, his head facing the other way.

He didn't want to talk to me.

"Cliff! I…" I tried to apologize but I was again interrupted.

"It's okay…" he said, feeling deeply sad, "I'm doing this all for you but you still… love him."

I thought about it, I'm a really bad person. I shouldn't of said that I'm used to talking to Gray. I just… I feel more comfortable when I'm with Cliff… I say the things that I think.

What's wrong with me!?

Cliff, just seeing him like that makes me think that I'm a bad person. He really makes me see through myself. Whenever I'm with him, I feel as great as ever. When I'm with him… I know who I really am.

"Cliff… I… I am really sorry. Whenever I'm with you… I just say how I feel or think." I replied.

"I am… really, really sorry." I continued.

"Haven't I told you? It's okay…" he said, as he continued to have a gloomed face.

"Cliff, I think I'm finished with my meal already… I'm going home." I excused.

"Bye…" I continued.

I gave him a peck on his check, and left.

As soon as I reached his front door… he shouted, "Claire!"

I wondered… why? I turned around

"Wh—a" I paused, as he gave me a kiss that lasted.

It was long, great, right.

As soon as I opened my eyes, he was there… standing beside me.

"I told you it's okay." He started.

I guess he really forgave me.

"I'm not letting you go home without me." he chatted.

"…" I paused.

"I love you. And I'm not letting Gray come into the middle of it." He replied, "I'm bringing you home." He whispered gently through my ear.

Just like on the first day of school.
