Memories Forgotten. A Stardew Valley Fanfiction

Chapter 18: The Move.

 A few days had passed since the incident at the saloon and Marcus was out and about tending to his crops while looking over at Leah who had been visiting him just about everyday. Then again who could blame them despite their short time together they've gone through a lot a young couple shouldn't have to go through.

"So is your cottage setup for winter ?" He asked as he sat down beside her on the deck. Leah looked down with a frown. "I don't know to be honest I mean the past few nights its been really cold in there and personally Robin said there wasn't much she could do to winterize the place."

Leaning back Marcus smirked looking up at the sky. "Well why don't you stay with me for the rest of the season and winter ?" Well that was one way to ask and rather straight forward.

Blushing before smiling at him she nodded in agreement. "So you don't have any problem with me staying with you ?" Laying down on the deck he chuckled at her. "Well um we are getting married right ?" He asked. She then tilted her head. "Yes we still are." He then rested his arm across his eyes. "Well there is your answer if anything we are just making it easier to move things while it cool." Well Leah hadn't thought of it that way but it did make sense.

Laying down resting her head on his chest she sighed happily. "Its hard to think that I've been here just as long as you have and we are already getting married." Marcus looked down at her. "Well we did make that promise when we were kids all those years ago." she nodded and then sat up.

"Well I better go start packing things up then so we can get everything moved." Slowly she got up and Marcus sat up and smiled. "Alright I'll be down there after I finish up the little bit left I have to do."

Leah smiled then ran off towards his cottage while Marcus got up and stretched grabbing his axe he started to finish up cutting the wood for winter.

Later that day Marcus, Sam, Shane, Jeb, Emily, Haley, Maru, just about all the young couples were at Leah's laughing and talking while packing and moving stuff. "Marcus you lucky dog you !" Alex said slapping him on the back as the guys were laughing while loading furniture onto a wagon Marine had let them barrow. "So what ? When are you gonna man up Alex and ask Haley ? " Marcus said before seeing Alex turn bright red then try to play it off as a joke before looking back over to Haley and smiling. "I don't know I mean what can I offer her ?" Marcus leaned on the side of the wagon then looked towards Haley. "Your love, your devotion, and your support." Alex smiled at Marcus as Sebastian wheezed and panted putting a box up on the wagon. "I'm already ahead of you Alex I asked Abby out on a date to the fall fair."

Looking at Seb Alex snorted then folded his arms. "Yeah well I bet the other guys haven't asked any of the other girls out yet." Shane leaned on the side of the wagon and chuckled. "Yeah I mean your the only one who hasn't asked your girl out I mean everyone else has even I've asked out Lucy." Alex was now getting mad before he looked over at Elliot. "Well what about Elliot ?" as if trying to make a point when a girl with dark black hair walked over wrapping her arms around Elliot. "Oh well his fiance is moving out here her name is Mary." Shane said pointing at the woman who was smiling while hugging him. "Oh man !!!" Well Alex was in a tight spot before gaining the courage to walk over towards Haley.

Of course the guys all hanging around the Wagon watched when Alex turned around looking at them and sure enough Sam smirked and brought the group into a song. "Baby will you be mine and give me that loving feeling." Forcing Alex to blush as the other girls watched on as if rooting for them both.

"Haley ! W-will you go with me to the fair? A-as on a date ?" he asked as the singing stopped and silence filled the air. "I'd love to you." she replied as everyone broke out in cheer. They we're of course the next generation of pelican town.

It was getting dark now and everything had been moved in and everyone was sitting down at a big bonfire talking about this year so far. "You know Marcus if you hadn't come here you would of never giving me the courage to ask Emily out." Clint had said while sharing a pale ale with everyone. "Yeah you know its kinda cool to see all of us now well what we are now." Sam said as everyone chit chatted more and laughed this was the start of a new era for everyone.

"So I guess everything is going to change now huh ?" Marcus said while Leah was leaning on him fast asleep. Everyone agreed with what he said when Shane stood up. "A toast Bruhhh as to why I'm toasting cause I'm thristy ! To all of us and the better change's we are about to enter !" Everyone that was still awake rose their glasses before taking a drink. Soon everyone left in good spirits while Marcus carried Leah into their house putting her to bed he walked over to the sofa a pillow in hand along with a blanket despite they we're now living together he rather she enjoy the bed while he took to the sofa.

It was late now when Leah walked into the living room and ran her finger tips across his cheek she knelt down and kissed his cheek. "Thank you." She whispered into his ear before walking back into the bedroom.
