Tom Nookie

Sweet Tea (short chap.)

It was a cold winter day and you were sitting at home reading a book. You begin to hear the wind gush outside your window as you cozily sit on the couch. Tom was out at work and so were the nooklings. You had the house all for yourself...

The ambient felt strange without them around, like something was missing... 

You shrugged it off and walked off to take a shower in the meantime. 

Tom Nook's POV

It is ever so snowy outside, and the clouds seem to gather a dark swirl in the sky... "Dear me, it seems there is going to be a snowstorm today..." I say looking out from the shop's window. Lyle walks up from his desk and examines the sky, "It seems like there is going to be! Hah, good thing Lyle has insurance!" he chuckles. 

"Good heavens, I should probably check up on the nooklings to see if they are alright. I should probably dismiss the rest of you all from work as well... Just to be safe..." I nodded. Lyle grins, "Oho! In that case, I'll go tell Lottie and Digby!" he exclaims before heading off outside. 

I closed the shop and went to pick up the nooklings from T&T Emporium. I sure do hope Ms. Y/n is alright...

Your POV 

I stepped out of the shower feeling refreshed. The restroom mirror is steamed up. I smile and wipe the steam off. I look at myself in the mirror and smile. I slipped into my undergarments and wrapped the towel around my head. That's when I realized I had forgotten to bring any clothes, I facepalm and sigh.  I opened the bathroom door and saw nobody there. From there I rushed upstairs as quickly as I could. 

Nook's POV

With the nooklings, I rushed home as quickly as I could. The sky becomes darker and darker by the minute... 

We finally made it home. Sighing in relief, I locked the door but Ms. Y/n was not to be found... I looked around. 

Oh, dear! Could it be that she is still outside!? 

I hurried and searched the rooms. I am beginning to worry as I failed to find her. I quickly ran upstairs to check the last room. 

My, I just hope she is not outside! 

I opened the door but she was not there... I walked in and looked around, "Ms. Y/n are you in here?" 

My ears perk up as I hear a loud rustle behind the screen divider. I peek behind it and feel my face flush red, "M-MS. Y/N!" I immediately closed my eyes. 

"GAAAAHH" She screams and slaps me. "I AM SO VERY SORRY-" I exclaimed and ran out of the room.

I stumbled down the stairs and fell on the floor.

3rd person POV

Nook blinks a few times before finally opening his eyes. He was laying on the couch with an ice pack on his face and a blanket over him. You sit next to him and wave your hand in front of him, "Phew... You are ok..." you sigh as he sits up. He rubs his cheek before remembering what has happened. 

"M-Ms. Y/n! I-... You-..." He stammers. "I AM SO VERY SORRY I DID NOT KNOW YOU WERE IN THERE!!!" his face begins to burn up again. You frown at him and cross your arms, "Knock first next time!" 

Nook nods his head, "Y-Yes ma'am." He looks down feeling guilty. 

You rub your arm feeling bad as well, "And um... Sorry for slapping you... I didn't mean to, you just scared me that's all..."
