"I'm not sure about this Kasey..." Renee said slowly, walking around one of the few houses for sale. The home was pretty big, but it was so high up on the mountain. She had nearly fallen off three times. If Kasey wasn't there holding her hands while walking behind her she would have fell through the blacksmith's roof.

"I dunno, I don't see what's wrong with it. Well, except for the fact that it's a hike to get up here, but it's got a nice view." He said, gazing out the window to the people below. Luke swinging his axe outside, Phoebe walking with a remote in her hands and a small robot flailing around, and Chloe and Taylor playing some game by the mines. It looked like they were playing kick the can with some red thing.

Angela, who had wanted to tag along, was checking around the rooms. "I like it."

Renee huffed. "But I don't. What if the baby is outside and falls? It's a drop of doom from up here."

Kasey scratched the back of his head. "Yeah, I guess that makes sense. Mayor Hamilton also warned me about something else that I guess makes this house a definite no."

His sister tilted her head to the side. "And that is?"

"Rocks falling from the mountain. There's a chance they might break through the roof." As if on cue, a sizeable boulder smashed through the roof inches from Kasey, causing the whole house to shake and the man to turn white as a sheet. Angela squeaked in surprise and Renee ran to his side to check for injury. "Next house!" he said, pushing both of the ladies outside and as far away from the death trap as possible.

The next house was located in Harmonica town right above the Ocarina Inn. Angela seemed to take quite a liking to it, making quick friends with the orange tabby walking around nearby. "I wanna keep him! Can we?" She begged, holding the cat in her arms. Kasey cocked an eyebrow at the cat which seemed to give him the cutest look he had ever seen on an animal.

"Fine, but I name it later."

"Okay!" She giggled, rubbing her cheek on the cat's head and giving it a kiss on the ear. It mewed at her and licked her hands.

When they stepped inside, it seemed very nice. Blue wallpaper, good flooring, no giant rocks falling from the sky. Renee was mesmerized by the huge kitchen and Angela was quite fond of the fountain to the side of the house. Kasey was just wandering around when he started hearing a weird thumping sound. The girls stopped whatever they were doing to look around for the source. Angela even walked outside to see if something was loose.

"Nothing outside. Maybe it came from the basement?" She said when she came back. Her brother nodded in agreement, opening and closing the door behind him as he stumbled down the stairs. When he came back up the stairs, he had a sea bass writhing in his grasp.

"I found this beating against the walls...there's an ocean in the basement."

Renee groaned. "I really liked this house too. Oh well I don't think we have any more options." The three of them properly disposed of the fish and started walking up the path back to the farm. Kasey carefully placed his arm around her and she rested her head on his shoulder, feeling pretty bummed out about not finding a house. "What other options do we have?"

"Hamilton said there was a house on Toucan Island, but I didn't figure you'd want to be so far away from Hanna and Cain."

The rest of the walk passed in silence. Angela awkwardly parted from the couple to go say hi to Chase. Kasey and Renee sat by the bridge, watching the water wheel turn. "I can't live with my parents with you there as well." She sighed.

"Yeah I don't think they like me too much." He chuckled to ease the tension. She blinked slowly, pulling him by the hand to hold her. He wrapped his arms around her. She felt his chin on her head as he said, "I promise I'll find somewhere for us to live." Without hesitation he added, "I love you."

The young rancher's eyes widened. That was the first time he had ever really said that to her. Her heart felt like it was about to explode. With a wide smile on her face, she pulled back to look in his eyes. "I love you too."

As they leaned in for a kiss he suddenly swooped his head up to narrow his eyes at a building behind her. Renee opened her mouth to whine when he broke away from her into a run. "H-Hey! Where are you going?" She yelled, waddling after him. He was already inside the house when she arrived, panting.

He was dancing around inside the house when she peeked inside. "This is great! Perfect! Awesome!" He laughed joyfully. "No rocks, no water, and no one living here! It's perfect, Renee!"

She giggled at him. "Yeah it looks great." She admired, touching the green wallpaper delicately. "We could always build a fence to keep the baby from drowning or anything."

"I can do that!" Kasey whooped, still bouncing off the walls. "Man, I can't believe Hamilton didn't tell me about this place! I'll have to have a word with him about it."

Renee smiled at him, absently stroking her stomach again. Things were looking up.
