A/N I did not proof read this cause I was stoo excited to release it. art by my friend who's dosent have watt but just know she's super talented

Something warm and wet dragged itself across Kevin's beard.

"Nahj!?" He snorted himself awake. Looking around confused as to what had licked him he smiled at the large possum sitting in his bed,"Mornin Butter, came to wake daddy up?"

She headbutted his arm and nugged her head into his hand.

"Hehehe,yeah yeah,your daddies girl ain't yah? That's my girl" he scratched under her chin and let Butter climb up onto his shoulders,"Lets see, what do we want to eat?"

He made his way into the kitchen and dug for some eggs and sausage maybe some grits  too if he felt like it.

"Here you go lil lady," he pulled her high chair up and sat her down at his table while he cooked,"got a fair down town, tonight, "wonder if I should go?" He asked himself out loud. He yawned and scratched his tone stomach,dark hair bending to his scard fingers and knuckles. The sound of bacon sizzling slowly started to perk him up, it was warm out and the spring air was nice and humid.

"Annie's coming by for visit," he said to himself again. That's when an idea hit him! "We could ask her tah make yah'a nice dress! Yeah something real' pretty like!" He could already see it! A cute lil dress for Butter! What color would she look good in? Pink? Maybe purple? Or maybe blue? Nah not blue

He felt butter nibble on his ankle and realized that his food with indeed burning!

"Thank you sweetheart!" He kissed her head and fixes them both a bowl of breakfast. He made sure she got mostly possum food but still set her plate at the table.

Seeing Butters fangies peek from under her lips was always cute to see,especially when she started to smack on her food. She'd look so cute with flowers to! But what kind? He was no gardener.

After breakfast he cleaned both places and looked through his dresser for a clean shirt. He pulled out an old black work shirt that had been sitting on the back of his chair for a while.

Butter followed him as he worked on his laundry, made a mental list of what he needed from the chicken and how many sheep he'd have to sheer for the afteroon. It wasn't alot thankfully.

"You ready to help me heard some sheep Miss.Butter?" He asked affectionately as he slipped his shoes on.

She mearly headbutted him and followed him outside.

"Oh! You're already awake! Sorry I didn't mean to swing by so early but I ran out of eggs," Ah yes the local adorable toy maker,Miss.Anne Lester! Had swung by.

" 'mornin Miss.Lester! Yah gave me a bit of'a startle!" He forgot that she'd mentioned coming by to get some extra eggs.

"Sorry! Hi Butter" She leaned down to pick the possum up and help her like a baby,"You really should let me do something, I know me eating half your eggs is bad for business!"

"Iv always got extra eggs for yah! It ain't no big thing!" He fixed his hat and opened his door for her,"Make yahself at home,I'll be quick"

Anne took a seat in a handmade wooden chair and looked around the room. There weren't many pictures but there were alot of pelts sitting neatly folded on the small table int the center of the living room.

"Oh! I could make him an outfit!"

"What'bout'n outfit?" Kevin came back with a large basket filled with brown and white eggs.

"Well I wanted to make you something,as thank you!" She said,Kevin had been so kind to her when she first set shop here in Otelus woods. He never hesitate to bring her fresh chopped wood or drive out to places and bring her things.
