Harvest Moon WizardXHikari Ch7


                        "W...Wizard-kun?!" Hikari asked bewildered. She let him in and shut the door. "What are you doing here?" He didn't respond. He just looked at her. Just then another loud rumble of thunder was heard. Hikari shrieked and then put her hand over her mouth and looked down to hide her embarrassment.  "Ahh. So thats what it was." Wizard spoke.
"What do you mean?"She asked. "I was using my crystal ball today, and your face appeared in it. And it said that one of your biggest fears would appear today. I didn't know what to think, because Harmonica Town was such a peaceful place, and the biggest fear here, was the land dieing. So then it started storming, and I knew that most people were afraid of thunder and lighting, or maybe even typhoons and tornadoes. But it wasn't storming that bad, but soon it started to get worse, so i came to make sure you were okay."

"Haha. Well you caught me red handed. Its the thunder..." Hikari admitted. The Wizard just nodded.  

'That was so sweet of him. Julius and Wizard are two people that are very precious to me...' Hikari thought. 'They both came to see if i was okay...so...they care about me too...'
Hikari almost didn't know how to deal with the new friendship feeling...No one had ever cared about her this much. Not even her parents...
A huge flash of lightning occurred outside her window, and a thunder crash that sounded like a bomb exploding, made her power go off.

Hikari screamed, and jumped into Wizards lap burring her head in his cloak.
"Um...Hikari-chan?" The wizard tried to ask whilst blushing, but he felt her shake, and just put his arms around her, and tried to comfort her.
Until she soon fell asleep.

Sun shining on her face and the pleasant sound of birds chirping outside made Hikari stir the next morning. She slowly opened her eyes.
She was laying on her couch. Her head hurt. She couldn't remember what had happened the previous night. That was until she saw a note laying by her head.

Hikari-chan,
Sorry to not be there when you awake, but I couldn't stay at your house, the storm was getting worse and I had to get back. But I made sure you were asleep, so you wouldn't be afraid when you awoke. Hope your better soon,
Wizard.

Hikari blushed. She remembered what had happened after all. There was a loud boom of thunder...the power went off...and she...she jumped into Wizard's lap...
Hikari gasped and hid her face from how red it was even though no one was around her.
How was she supposed to face him like that? Ahhh!


Later that day, after Hikari had visited Julius and given him a purple herb, (What he uses to die his hair) she was standing outside the Wizards door. She gently knocked.
"Enter." Said Wizard.
She did so.
"Hello Wizard-kun." She said, trying to hide her red face.
"Yes." He said. He had a look on his face...like he was trying to figure out an unsolveable math problem, while looking at her.
"Something wrong?" Hikari asked.
"Oh no.." "Well good." She opened his hand and put a Fungue Mushroom it it.
"You like these don't you? Here you go" She said and smiled.
Wizard blushed. "Yes. Thank you." He approached her and gave her a hug.
Hikari blushed hard at his sudden affection. But she felt...warm. On the inside.

When he released, Hikari bid him farewell and was picking mushrooms in the grass beside the Mines. For some reason...so couldn't stop thinking about the Wizard. She liked the hug...He felt so warm and it made her feel safe that she didn't want to let go...
"Hikari-chan...Do you love the Wizard?" Finn asked.
"I don-" But she stopped herself. Did she not really? He made her happy, and being there for her...
"I...I think i do..."Hikari admitted.
"Well i think you should tell him. Before someone else does." Finn replied. "Who else would like Wizard? No one in this town takes him seriously except me." She said.
"Theres the Witch and The Harvest Goddess."
"I highly doubt the Harvest Goddess would go for someone like Wizard. Wouldn't she like, a God?"
Finn nodded. "Yes but theres the Witch."
Hikari responded with, "But her and Wizard don't get along at all."
"Well i still think you should go and tell him. I have a bad feeling for some reason..."
"Fine. I will." And Hikari set off back to the wizard's house. To confess...
