A/N: Yay! Hey Harvest-Moon-Fan, jensulli11, and HanakoAkatsuki thank you soooo much for the totally awesome reviews. Just like I promised here is the next chapter! Enjoy! Oh and I promise that I won't do one of those: "must have this many reviews before the next chapter" again!
Only two weeks have passed since I last saw Skye. I've got my barn finished and purchased a cow that will give milk in two days! Lately I've been hanging out with Rock; his happy-go-lucky attitude seems to cheer me up whenever I miss Skye. We've become pretty good friends in the last couple of weeks and I visit him from time to time. I've tried my best to seem extra cheerful around him but no one can beat his cheerfulness.
It's down to about a week until Skye comes back and it's the first week of summer. I have some pineapples and some corn growing but they won't be ready for a while (especially the pineapples!). I headed out to meet Rock and he told me he was going to take me to see Patrick and Kassey to ask about the up coming fireworks. They sound really fantastic as Rock describes.

Two days later…
I was ecstatic this morning as I produced my first ever bottle of milk! I was really proud of my cow too because it looked like a pretty good amount! About medium I'd say. I made sure to give my cow an extra helping of hay to show it that it had done a good job. I practically skipped to the Inn out of all of my joy. Rock was outside waiting for me and grinned when he saw my happy aura. "Hey." he called to me. "You look really happy!" I laughed and said "Yep! My cow just gave a medium sized milk! I'm ecstatic!" I pumped my arms in the air playfully and Rock chuckled.
"Hey wanna go to the beach today?" He asked. "It's a nice, warm day today!" He grinned at me. "Sure!" I told him. What better way to spend the day then with your best friend? I thought to myself. We walked to the beach and chattered (mostly about Zigzag, my cow.) When we reached the beach we sat on the bench next to the opening, and continued to talk.
I loved talking to Rock, he was always has such a happy look on the world. But I hadn't realized that when we were talking the sun began to set. "Wow!" I said looking at the sun reflecting in the oceans waves. "It's so pretty!" "Yeah!" Rock agreed. I laid my head on my friends shoulder and said "You're really fun to talk to Rock." He laid his head on mine and teased "I know." Or at least I think he was teasing. And I was happy
I was happy to be with my friend, just talking and enjoying the sunset.

Rock walked me home and headed to the bar. He had invited me to come but I didn't like to drink. And I knew Rock was the type that went all crazy when he drank. Those kinda people scare me if you didn't already know that from the incident with Patrick and Kassey.
I went inside the house and prepared dinner for Coco and I. Then I went to the barn and checked on Zigzag to make sure he was okay. She mooed happily when she saw me and I put in a bushel of hay for her dinner. Then I brushed her in small circles which she seemed to like. I headed off to bed so I could have an early start for tomorrow.
