I'm really sorry that I didn't update sooner! I've been sort of ignoring my stories for a while so I feel really bad! Sorry! I don't own Harvest moon and I never will. Ever, I mean it. Chris's POV
It didn't take long for a silver man to come through the door. He had a confused look on his face, I wonder what happened...then again that really doesn't matter right now.
"Hey! Thief! Why are you stealing?" Violet asks beside me. Her purple eyes were sparkling in a childish way. Phantom Skye looked up and was speechless as he gazed at Violet.
"It's because he's a thief, Violet." I answer. It broke the silence and the man looked at me with a shocked expression. He frowns and points at me. He seemed to have regained his cool.
"Don't be rude, boy. How do you know this beautiful girl? Violet? Right?" Phantom Skye asks as he puts his hands in his pockets and walk towards me. I stood my ground and looked at Violet's now wide eyes.
"Yes, Violet. Like the flower. It's also a color, very similar to purp-" I begin to remark.
"I didn't ask for a definition, boy." The man says with an irritated tone. He looks at Violet and smiles as he strolls towards Violet slowly. Violet backs away a little, readying a fist with her right hand.
"Violet, no." I mouth out. Violet looks confused so I cock my head towards the door with David and Ben behind it. Violet mouths out an "Ohhhhhh, okay!" Phantom Skye notices and looks back at me with suspicion.
I pretend to pick at my teeth and act clueless. "What?" I ask innocently. The silver man gave me an annoyed look an goes to walking towards Violet.
"Hey lovely, You wouldn't happen to have a sister? A twin sister to be more exact?" Phantom Skye asks smoothly.
"Yeah, you froze her with the others out there! Her name is-" Violet begins.
I gave her the 'be quiet' sign. Later, I'm going to have to have a talk with Violet about strangers and what not to tell them...
Violet followed and went mute. Phantom Skye takes a closer step, he was getting a little too close in my opinion.
"What? It's okay, you can trust me. I'm sure it's a lovely name. The silver thief sweet talks. Hoping it would make Violet talk.
Violet shakes her head and crosses her arms. "Why do you need to know? It's none of your beeswax." Violet comments as she looks away from Phantom Skye's face.
The man kneeled down to Violet's eye level. "Is it something cute like...Rose?" The man asks. Violet and I jump and I walk towards the two.
"H-How did you know?" Violet asks. Her face had a hint of a scared expression.
I saw Phantom Skye's face. He looked excited, happy, and joyful almost all at the same time. What was with this guy? So happy over a name?
"I-I'm sorry if I startled you. It's been nice talking to you, we'll talk again soon...look it up in the stars." Phantom Skye says as he gets up and walks towards the front door. Violet had an even more confused look on her.
"Wait a second! Weren't you going to rob this place?" I ask loudly. The silver man looked back at me and smiled. "I got to see the world's most precious jewels. That's enough treasure for tonight. Goodnight, Violet." Phantom Skye then dashed out of the bar and left us standing there.
"D-Do you have any idea what just happened?" I ask Violet. Violet looks at me and shrugs. "No idea. What a weirdo..." Violet says, the girl frowned for a bit then smiled. "Well on the bright side, the bar still has their drinks!" The dirty blond says while jogging towards the door to the other rooms.
She opened it and out came Ben and David toppling over each other. They were apparently leaning towards the door while waiting.
David landed on the hard floor first and Ben landed next to him the same way.
"Ow....what was that for?" David asks while getting up and pulling up Ben by the hand. "Where's Phantom Skye?" Ben asks while looking around.
"Gone. He left for some reason." Violet says while looking at her untied sneakers.
"Eh!?" David asks surprised.
One explanation later
The girls were unfrozen around the same time we began explaining. So we told them the story too. Rose looked especially surprised that Phantom Skye knew her name. Soon everyone went home including me, tonight was a long night and I was exhausted.
I already told my family I would be out with my friends a little longer than usual tonight. My mom was okay with it as soon as I convinced her it had nothing to do with drugs, alcohol, etc.
I finally reach my house and open the door to reveal my dad waiting for me in the entrance. It startled me for about a second, he had a big grin on his face.
"Sooo...how was the night out? Who did you go with? What's her name?" My dad asks excitingly.
I sigh at my dad's usual questions. "It was okay, I went with my friends, and...." I really didn't know how to answer the last question without making it sound like I actually had a date. "...I'm going to bed, goodnight." I say as I walk up the stairs, heading towards my room.
"Haha! Don't be shy!" I hear my dad comment as I walk away to bed.
The next morning
"Chr-"
"Chris! Wake up sleepyhead! I've got something for you!" I hear my dad's voice say. I slowly open my eyes, even though all I wanted to do was close them again.
"Oh, morning. What is it?" I ask while rubbing my eyes and letting out a yawn. My dad placed a book on my lap and I look down on it and read the multi-colored cover.
Pick up lines and tips for dating!!!
I widen my eyes at the book. Not to complain, but I'm more of a mystery novel person myself. Anyway, I can't believe my dad actually got this! Even if I did have a girlfriend I wouldn't be so cheesy I'd resort to a stupid manual!! This is so stupid!
I put on a fake smile and teeth out-"I love it...." to my happy father.
"I'm glad you like it! Soon your competition won't stand a chance with you! You'll have a truckload of dates in no time!" Dad says enthusiastically. ....competition? Truckload?What does that mean?
"Now get dressed! We need to eat breakfast and go to the beach! Let's go!" Dad says while walking out the door.
After the door closes I sigh and reluctantly turn to the first page out of curiosity.
