Enjoy everyone! :D

I don't own anything related to Harvest Moon...at all. (Seriously, if I owned Harvest Moon would I be here right now? On a computer typing fanfictions?)

By the way, I meant Hugh's mom having the name Chris. But I'm still keeping the marathon thing for his dad though because Wally creeps me out. He really does.

But whatever! Enjoy :D This chapter is mostly concerned about Violet. Rose will be next! ^^

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Violet kept running up the stairs to the mansion.

Chris was hardly getting near her and Rose was barely keeping up with either of them.

"C'mon, slowpokes!" Violet yelled out cheerfully as she stopped next to the open gates.

Violet turned around to see the huge building.

Wow..this place is three times bigger up close!

A few minutes passed until Chris finally got near the gates too.

"You're..(huff)...fast" Chris panted out while catching his breath.

Violet reddened a little at the compliment.

"Hehe, What? that's nothing! I usually kick it on high speed when I'm in trouble!"

Violet then started looking around frantically.

"Wait, where's Rose!? She isn't this slow!"

Chris also looked around.

"Huh? I don't see her either. She should be here soon though."

Violet stomped her foot out of annoyance.

"Yeah? But what if something happened to her? I can't wait around just thinking she'll come soon. I need answers!"

Violet leaned a little closer to the stairs.

"I'll be right back."

Chris was no longer breathing heavily as he grabbed Violet's hood.

"Violet! What if you leave the same time she comes? Are you sure you can't wait for a minute or two?"

Violet took Chris's hand away from her jacket hood.

"Hell no! This is my sister!"

And after that Violet took off without another word.

Chris sighed and sat down on the ground.

"This should take about five minutes before something happens."

Meanwhile~

Violet was running down the stairs almost tripping twice.

"Rose! Where are you?"

Violet kept running down the stairs until she passed a flash of green.

She then spun around on her sneakers to see Rose.

"Rose, what are you doing? I thought you wanted to meet Chris's parents."

Rose had a frightened expression on her face and looked away.

"...?.."

Why is she just standing there in front of the stairs?

It took around five minutes total for Violet to figure it out.

"Oh! You're afraid of the stairs, aren't you?"

Rose gave a slight nod.

"But why? Stairs are a lot of fun when you run up them!"

Rose then turned her head and looked at Violet's scratches from the fall earlier.

She then walked up to her sister and whispered in Violet's ear.

"When you fell I was scared. I heard people died falling on stairs. So I didn't know what to do. I'm not brave like you, Violet."

Violet knew Rose was scared of a lot of things but this was new.

"What are you talking about? I do stuff out of lack of common sense sometimes! Bravery means nothing! The fall wasn't even that bad! Now let's go up those stairs!" Violet shouted while pointing to the stairs.

Rose backed away a little but her escape failed as Violet grabbed her hand.

"Wait! Do I have to?"

Violet looked at her sister and smiled.

"Of course! But it's okay if there's someone with you! When have I ever been wrong?"

Rose thought for a moment.

"Don't answer that question please."

Violet then gave Rose's arm a tug.

"Let's go! Chris is waiting!"

Meanwhile, back at the gates~

Chris was snoring lightly as he was leaning against the gate sitting down.

It's been forty-five minutes since Violet left and it was 9:00 p.m.

The two sisters were walking up the last five steps of the stairs.

"Okay Rose, you're doing great! Just a few mo-"

Violet then looked ahead to see the sleeping boy.

"Chris! You're napping!?"

Violet then let go of Rose's hand and ran up to Chris as Rose was walking up the last step.

She took a twig out of her rucksack and started poking Chris with it. (Twig in her rucksack? This story seems to write itself.)

"Wake up!"

Chris lazily opened his eyes and look up at Violet.

"Oh, you're back with Rose. Sorry, you took a while and I guess I fell asleep."

Chris got up from the ground and yawned.

"Fell asleep? You were out like a light!"

Chris gave a nervous laugh and turned around to face the mansion.

"Well, ladies first I guess."

Violet took Rose's hand again and started walking.

"Let's go!"

The three teenagers then entered the mansion to a woman with a rejoiced look on her face.

"Chris! You're home! I was starting to believe you wouldn't come back!"

The woman then gave Chris a tight squeeze.

She doesn't even seem to notice us. Maybe she's too busy tyring to kill Chris.

Chris's face was getting red from either lack of oxygen or embarrassment.

"Mom..suffocating..."

The lady instantly pulled away while Chris was gasping for air.

"Sorry honey. I better go tell Rock your home!"

Then the lady just passed by the two girls and went up the stairs.

"That was weird to watch." Violet spat out under her breath.

Chris turned to Violet and smiled.

"Yeah, she's like that sometimes. But she's my mom so I love her anyway."

Violet frowned for a moment and looked down.

"Um..yeah, that's awesome.."

Chris noticed the sad tone in her voice.

"Violet, did I say something? You're upset all of a sudden."

Violet then snapped out of it and smiled again.

"What? ME? No way! Hehe, Don't be silly!"

Chris was still doubting she was okay.

"Well if your sure.."

Just then an old woman and man walked up to the teens.

"Chris you're home! And who are these girls your with?"

Before Chris could answer Violet held out her hand.

"Hi! My name's Violet and the other girl is my sister, Rose. We're the new farmers here!"

The old woman laughed and shook Violet's hand.

"I'm Chris's great-grandmother, Romana. And that's Sebastian our butler."

Romana then turned towards Rose and smiled.

"I must say, you two would be identical if it wasn't for the eyes."

Rose bent down respectfully and looked at her shoes.

"T-Thank you, madam. We're twins."

Romana had a surprised look on her face.

"Really? But you look a little older to me."

Yeah, by 15 minutes lady.

Violet was still standing next to Chris while Romana was talking to Rose.

"So that's you're great-grandma eh? She sure likes Rose."

Chris frowned while he was looking at the two.

"Yeah you're right. My mom used to tell me how great-grandma would pressure her into being a young lady. So I guess Rose would be what she is talking about."

Violet sighed and looked away.

"When is your mom and dad coming anyway? Rose is so freaked out right now I can almost feel it."

Right after Violet said that they heard a door close and the lady from earlier and a man came down the stairs.

"See Rock? Those are the girls I saw with Chris."

So she did notice us!

Romana then smiled and stepped away from Rose.

"Well, I'll leave you girls alone now, let's go Sebastian."

The elders went to another room leaving two parents, three teens, and a problem that's probably going to happen within the next ten seconds.

The man walked towards the Violet and Chris and smiled.

"Hi! My name's Rock and I'm Chris's dad. And who are you, lovely lady?"

Violet reddened a little and giggled.

"I'm Violet and the other girl is my sister. We'll be working at the old farm."

Rock then eyed Chris a little.

"So is this you're girlfriend? She's a pretty one I'll tell you that."

Chris's and Violet's faces were completely red now.

"No dad! I just met her! She's not my girlfriend!" Chris yelled loudly.

Rock sighed and laughed.

"Well that's too bad. Well, nice meeting you!"

Rock then went to Rose to introduce himself.

"Wow.." Was the only word Violet could spit out.

A moment passed until the woman came up to them.

"Sorry about earlier!I was just so concerned about Chris I didn't even introduce myself! I'm Chris's mother, Lumina."

Violet grinned and pointed to herself.

"I'm Violet and that'-"

"Yes, that's Rose,your sister. I just got done talking to her."

Violet laughed a little while getting redder again.

"Sorry, I'm so used to saying that to strangers. But you beat me to it I guess."

Lumina laughed and looked at Chris.

"So is this girl you're new friend?"

Chris didn't really know how to respond.

Violet then nodded her head.

"Yep, and the first one I made here too. I feel pretty lucky meeting him!"

Chis looked at the happy girl and nodded.
