The Adventures of IceT and Limon (A Chikin Nuggit OC Fanfiction)

Chapter 13: The Frog Pond

(3rd Person POV)

Synopsis: When IceT stumbles upon a serene garden, a certain demigod manages to catch sight of the mouse.

                  IceT hummed to herself as she walked on the sidewalk, a dark brown satchel decorated with crocheted pins slung on her shoulder. Today, she decided to spend some time by herself to try and relive some of the stress she had been under for some time now.

The only problem was, IceT wasn't sure what she wanted to do today. She'd been wandering around for the most part, familiarizing herself with the town and its various areas.

"How long have I been walking for? I gotta sit down," The mouse thought, catching sight of some flower bushes nearby. Curious, she went closer, parting the bushes to see a beautiful view of bright flowers and shining, green grass greet her.

Moving past the bushes, IceT saw that there was also a pond full of lily pads and smiling frogs awaiting her. The sight was enough to make her quietly gasp, walking slowly so as to not startle the placid frogs.

Finally approaching them, IceT knelt down at the pond's edge, observing the frogs with great interest. "Hey there! I hope you don't mind if I stay here for a while," She said quietly with a smile. The frogs didn't do much except blink to acknowledge the mouse in front of them.

"I'll take that as a yes," IceT giggled as she moved a bit back from the edge of the pond to sit down and open up her satchel.

As she pulled out a pair of crochet hooks and an unfinished project of hers, IceT didn't notice a yellow dog come out from his place behind a flower shrub.

Chikin had come to this flower garden to spend some one-on-one time with nature and reflect. However, while meditating on his thoughts, Chikin overheard someone enter the area.

He was quite surprised to find IceT there, seeing that Crafty Corner was rather far from this tranquil garden. But something about seeing the mouse speak to the frogs there in such a soothing manner made the dog feel deeply warm inside all over his furry body.

It was like merely being around her was enough to give Chikin his daily dose of serotonin and so much more! He had his wonderful friends and even the lovable frogs he cared about, but whenever Chikin saw IceT, he observed whatever she did to be rather endearing or sweet.

It had to be why he always found himself visiting her shop at least once a week, right?

Either way, Chikin wasn't so sure what he was feeling or why. But he thought it would be best to dwell over it somewhere secluded, hence him being here in the garden he and his friends liked to visit from time to time.

At first, upon seeing IceT relaxed near the pond, Chikin wanted to go over and perhaps strike up a conversation with her. However, his body wouldn't move (some part of him was almost scared to), and so he remained where he was, contently watching the mouse whip up another one of her crocheted creations.

For a long while, it stayed that way. That was, until Chikin shifted in his spot and tripped over his own feet, causing a "oomph" from the dog.
