The Village, A Truth and A Wish

The next day, Crystal was still sleeping at Haru's chest. Haru slowy opens his eyes and got a bit blind by the sun's lights "Hmm..." he puts his hand covering his eyes from the sun "Weird... it's still cold and the sun it's still coming out." he looks at his chest and Crystal was still asleep, Haru blushes a little and says "Wake up little one" Crystal slowy opens her eyes "Hmm?.. O-Oh!... O-Ohayo..." "We should get going" he smiles at her Crystal nodded as she stands up. Haru stands up as well " Can you walk, or does your body hurts?" "I-I think... I can walk..." "Oh well" Haru grabs her hand and starts to walk with her heading to the village. Crystal gets surprised and blushes hard. While they kept walking something start to smell good, a smell of food something that got Haru hungry -Guuurrrr- Haru stayed serious "That...wasn't me" they both kept walking. Crystal gets confused "E-Eeeh?..." her stomach growled "U-U-Uhh...." she gets embarrased "We should walk a bit faster"while both kept walking they started to walk down a cliff that was 5 minutes away from the village"We're almost there, hehe" Crystal accidently falls "A-Aaaah!"Haru falls but lands on his back while holding Crystal on his chest"Augh!" they both landed after the fall to the ground. Crystal closes her eyes tight as she shivered.  "Open your eyes... We're play now" Haru said with a smooth voice while he waited her to open her eyes.  Crystal opened her eyes. Haru gets up with Crystal and says "Are you ok?" Crystal hugged him tight "I-I'm fine....a-arigato..." "Oh well... Let's keep going" they kept walking till they arrived to the village. Crystal stomach growled again " Oh...God... how embarrasing..." Crystal kept walking. Her stomach growled once again " >A<.... H-Haru-kun.....~  I-I'm hungry.... QAQ.... I haven't eaten for.... 3 days..." "Let's keep going over here, were close from my house" Haru hurried walkimg to his home because both of them were starving"We're here! The villagers are at their houses they dont come out in mornings"The house was small it was made with good quality wood. "Ooooh.... I see..." Crystal smiles sweetly. Haru opens the door and gets in with Crystal "Sit here! I know its all rusty but thats all I got, it's not easy looking for a job at the city" The couch was red and was rusty and old, the house inside was small too but was comfy, the bed was a King bed which was very clean and enormous the covers were color red and had 3 pillows, the kitchen was small, it had a white fridge a stove and a sink with table, and had a familiar table with only 3 chairs. Crystal sitted in the chair  "I... see... your house looks comfy to me..." she smiles as she thoughts * Should I tell him... about who I am?... N-No... I think is not the right moment...* Haru starts to look in the fridge for eggs, butter and bacon. Haru gets a pan and adds butter to it and puts it over the stove, he turns it on and the butter starts to melt slowly, he cracks 4 eggs and puts them in the pan, while they fried he puts 6 slices of bacon in it too, they all fried for almost 6 minutes. Haru went and cleaned 2 plates and 2 spoons. Crystal smells the food " *^* it smells soooo goooood!!" "Im glad you like the smell haha!" He laughed a bit while he divided the food and putted them in the plates , puts the plates on the table and he went looking for bread "Here, half for both of us"Crystal eyes starts to sparkles "A-Arigato!!"  Haru asked her "Oh wait, i have grape juice and orange juice, which one you want?" Crystal reponds with her sparkling eyes "Graaaaaaaaapeeeeeee!!!""I love grape juice too! Haha" Haru grabs the grape juice from the fridge and 2 cups too, gives one cup to Crystal and pours it with grape juice, he does the same to the cup he haves and he goes and sits on the chair and starts to eat his food slowly. Crystal starts to eat " Oishiiii!!!! *^*" "Haha! Do you like it?" he smiled while eating. Crystal was focusing eating her food quickly and drinking her juice as she gets full "Aaaah~...." she starts to giggles. "Wow you're a fast eater, i love to leave the bacon for last" Ends eating his bacon and drinks the juice"Mmm it was good haha" he smiles. She stands up picking up her plate and cup as she starts to wash them when she finishes she goes to Haru's room leaving a tiny bag with 4,000 yens in the night table. As fast as Haru finished cleaning the dishes he turned around and walked to the table where Crystal was "How was the food did you lik-- what is that on the table?" He grabbed it and looked inside, he got a bit mad at seeing the money inside of it. Crystal smiled and blushed "Arigato....Haru-kun... that is a gift for helping me so.... you deserve it" "B-but I really can't accept this... Specially from a girl" Haru looks at her.  Crystal shakes her head and walks towards him she hugs him softly "No... take it.... please..." Haru sighs and says "Well... Okay, but i will pay you back someday, thanks" Haru smiled and wrapped his arms around her. Crystal tears starts to come out and blushing "This girl... who is in front of you.... is a princess..""W-what? A princess? How come... Why were you left alone on a forest?" Haru heart starts to tremble. Crystal touches his face "It doesn't matter.... Haru... I'm just glad you found me" "B-But... you should be in a palace right now, on a clean, big palace... Not a rusty old place like this one" Haru shrugs and looks down while he said those words. Crystal replied "I.....can't....return..." Haru moved his ears back and looks at crystal"Wait... Why can't you go back to the palace?" Crystal shivers "Because...I-I'm....wanted..." "What did you even do? You don't seem like someone who would do something horrible... Are you a witch?" Haru starts to giggle when he finished the sentence"Pffft haahaha a witch" Haru pinches Crystal's cheek softly and smiles a bit. She blushed "N-No.. I din't do anything... theres a group called 'Azure' that wants to kill me for some reason... but I'm not sure why...""Azure... Never heard of them before, it must be because I'm a country boy... But are they really bad? Why do they want you?" "Is alright... the good thing... is... that I'm with you and I feel save" she smiled. "By the way... I can grant wishes""You can grant wishes!?"Haru started talking on his mind"If she can do that stuff... Would it be good to ask for a good house!? Good food!? New stuff!? Cloooothes! Oh.. No that would be like using her ugh... No no no "Haru hits his head several times "Are you saying that for real?" Crystal nods  "Yes... plus... I want to help your village..."  "How do you wanna help? I don't want you to think I'm using you.." Crystal softly giggles " Just say what is your wish and of course not you silly""I dont think i should.." Haru looks down. Crystal lift up his chin "If you don't tell me then I can't help.""I... Just want a better house, cuz this one is old and rusty..." Haru's ears move back. Crystal smiles and blushes "Your wish has been heard in my ears!" She jumps and spin around her dress starts glowing Haru's house starts changing into a bigger house as his clothes changes also his closet is set by new good clothes as optional  she lands in the floor firmly and smiles again "There!~ "Haru's eyes got big as he saw the big change on the house and his clothes "thi...this is amazing! Thanks a lot Crystal!" Haru glomps Crystal and rubs his cheek with hers. Crystal laughs and smiles "You are very welcome!" Haru gets up and lends Crystal a hand "Get up, hehe" Crystal gets surprised and blushes and gives him her softly hand. Haru walks to the kitchen and see everything clean, and new stuff even a new fridge an stove"Woah!"He opens the fridge and there was new stocks of food"Ahh! Want something from in here?" Crystal appears sleeping in his bed. "Crystal?" He looks for her and enters to his bedroom"Ohh so here you were" Haru smiles as he saw her sleeping on his bed , he got close to her and kissed her forehead "Sweet dreams" he whispered and walked out of the room. Crystal calls him with her softly tone voice "S.....stay with me...o-onegai..."  Haru's ear twitched and he opens the door"Did you said something?" Crystal opened her eyes a bit "..W-Would...you sleep....with me?""Sure why not?"He went to the bed and laid next to her, he turns around and wraps one of his arms around her belly"Sweet dreams darling"Haru shut his eyes and smiled. She goes back to sleep and nuzzles his chest. He blushed a bit"Hehe" Her hoodie fells off from her head her little elf ears shows Crystal wakes up surprised as her face turns red and squeals "N-N-Nyaaaaaahhhhh!!!!!! H-Haru-kun!!!!! I'm sensitive!!!! "Hahaha" haru starts laughing, "I didnt expect that to happen, and i didnt knew you were sensitive there" Crystal pins him down as her face is still red"Oh~ so you wanna get pervy on me?"Haru grabs crystal by her waist and pulls her down to his crotch, he sticks his tongue out"Heh" Crystal gets surprised as she shakes her head of embarrased "B-Baka!" Haru gets up and she end up sitting on his lap"I wont do anything i you , silly" he giggled a bit by seeing her blush with embarrassment Crystal covers her face her elf ears goes down while blushing. Haru pets Crystal and hugs her "Go back to sleep" C-Can I sleep in your...chest?" she uncovers her face. "Sure, sleep on my chest"Haru laid back Crystal climbs on him and she lays her head in his chest. Haru puts a hand on her hair and starts petting her. Crystal starts purring and goes to sleep Haru shuts his eyes once again and goes to sleep "hehe good night"
