A/N: Hey! Sorry for the long wait! I NEVER expected the reaction I got to this fan fic. You guys really like the Jack x Goddess pairing. I finally have a direction for this so it should be finished up in the next few weeks. And yes, chapters will still be short. This was never meant to be a long story. I hope you continue to enjoy this. It's been fun to write :)
Chapter 3: Dating
I don't think I would describe the Goddess' behavior as stalking, because I enjoyed it, but she seemed to always be around. I didn't just see her every day at her pond. I saw her on my farm, while I walked around town, and in the mines. I loved every second of it.
"You have shipped 10,000 Sweet Potatoes."
"You have walked 1,000,000 steps."
"You have reached floor 255 of the mine."
"You have shipped 100,000 Large Fish."
Every time this happened the beautiful woman would magically appear before me. She was absolutely radiant. Her body floated a few inches above the ground. My reaction was always the same: jaw drop and stare. I never knew what to say to her. She was just so beautiful.
When she was ready to leave she would just smile at me. Her smile was the most amazing I have ever seen. Even more beautiful than the sunrise on Mother's Hill. The Goddess would smile and then vanish into thin air. It never upset me. I knew I would see her again soon.
Then one day I realized something. I never shipped 10,000 sweet potatoes or 100,000 large fish! At least I don't think I did. I came to the conclusion that the Goddess was just making those numbers up as an excuse to visit with me. I was the luckiest guy in the world!!
That's when something clicked in my head. I spent every moment of the day thinking about the Goddess. I visited her as often as I could. She seemed to do the same. What happened when the other young people in the town spent a lot of time together? They began to…. date!
After I came to this realization I spent all my time on Cloud 9. I was dating the Goddess! Well, I never made it official, but all the signs were there. My happiness could be seen wherever I went. I never watched where I walked, I miscounted money in the stores, and I was even humming while I worked. I could never tell anyone what had made me so aloof.
They would have never believed me anyways.
