Third Person POV:
It had been about two weeks since you settled down in Moominvalley, and frankly, it's been rather nice. You've gotten quite close to Snufkins friends, and had started to become a familiar face to others in the valley. But, there was something frustrating you since you've crossed paths with this lovely little place, and it was your feelings towards Snufkin himself. Never experiencing these types of feelings , all you could think to do was ignore it, but that hasn't helped at all. Snufkin seems to be struggling with the same situation as well, but both of you are to hotheaded to confront these feelings. For now, we can only see how this whole scenario will play out. Today might not be as peaceful as they think.

(Y/N) 's POV:
" (Y/N)! Wake up!" I jumped as I woke up to someone shaking me, still half asleep.
" Oh my goodness...Moomin you gave me a mini heart attack.." I placed my hand on my chest for comfort as my eyes started to focus on the white furred boy.
" I'm terribly sorry, but it's 12pm. You should be awake." Moomin huffed. I blanked out for three seconds, until I plopped back down into my sleeping position.
" 5 more minutes Moomin..."
" (Y/N)!" He whined.
" Ugggggghhhhhh! Fiiiiiinee! I'm up!" I grumbled, running at my eyes furiously.
" Just give me 15 minutes to get ready."
" Alright, but hurry! The others are waiting!" He added.
" Okey-dokey, whatever you say. But can you do me a favor and fill my cup up with-"
" River water?"
"Precisely." I giggled. He simply nodded, and excited the tent in a flash. I began to set up my little hygiene station. Toothbrush, toothpaste, soap to wash my face...
" Here you go (Y/N)." Moomin arm reached through the tents opening.
" Why thank you Moomin." I said.
" Is she almost done in there?!?" I could hear Little My's impatient voice from outside. I shook my head with a tiny smile, and began to get ready for the day.
* 10 minutes later *
I  shuffled out of my tent wearing a pair of patched blue jeans and a plain (F/C) T-shirt with a little pocket. I decided to just let my (H/C) hair do it's thing, being a tad frizzy and all. At least it's not as bad as Snufkins bed head.
" Finally! What took you so long?" Little My placed her hands on her hips.
" It doesn't matter.. all that matters is that I'm here now." I sighed.
" So, where too?" I asked, dusting myself off.
" Well, I had recommended the nearby field." Snorkmaiden said.
" Today is delightful for flower picking."
" And the butterflies should be flying about. It is spring after all." Snufkin added.
" Butterflies?!?" I squealed with excitement.
" Why yes. Blue ones, orange ones. They're all quite beautiful." He added.
" Oh yes! I could possibly find one to sketch!" I jumped happily.
" Well then it's settled. C'mon everyone!" Snufkin waved his hand over his head, leading the way. I quickly snatched up my sketchbook, and followed along.
*Time skip*
" Are we there yet?" Little My whined.
" Patience Little My. I think we're nearly there." I reassured her.
" That's what you said 3 minutes ago!"
" Exactly. It was 3 minutes ago!" I had started to become irked with her constant bickering. Although that's how she is, it can sometimes get to me.
" Look! Over there!" Sniff pointed towards a yellow...leaf? No wait! It's a-
" It's a butterfly!" Moomin giggled, His feet sprinting towards the graceful insect.
" Moomin! Wait!" Snorkmaiden called after him, but it was no use. He was out of hearing range. Well standing there clearly wasn't an option. I started to run myself, the grass crunching beneath my feet.
" Moomin, wait up!" I yelled after him as he still ran after the butterfly. I could hear the others behind me running as well. Man, this kid can run! He seemed to vanish behind a clutter of bushes.
" Moomin!"
I squeezed myself through the jumble of leafs and twigs , and that's when it came into view.
" It's breathtaking.." I stared off into what was the fields, swarmed with butterflies galore.
" Isn't it just gorgeous?" Moomin grinned, the yellow winged creature he chased after resting on his forearm.
" Indeed." I flinched as I heard Snufkins voice behind me say 'indeed'. The rest of our friends had finally managed to catch up.
" Well what are we waiting for? This'll be loads of fun!" Little My jetted through the grass, jumping at nearby butterflies. I simply couldn't contain myself, so I rolled through the bushy grass, probably tangling pieces of junk and flowers in my already messy hair. I laid on my back, gazing at the cloudless baby blue sky, butterflies coming from each and every direction.
" Having fun I see?" Snufkin had walked over, leaning over me to see my nature infested hair. He soon began to howl with laughter, falling back as he clutched his stomach, his feet kicking in the air.
" You look like a homemade shrub!" He wheezed.
" Well goodness me, I didn't know you could laugh that hard Snufkin." I exclaimed, sitting up.
" Really? I don't know whether I should be offended or not." He started to calm himself.
" Take it however you like. I just didn't see how someone as calm and collected as you are could burst into a chuckle-fest." I said, now attempting to brush out any weeds out of my hair.
" We all have a time where we laugh till our eyes nearly pop out (Y/N). That's how it is."
" And I assume that wasn't your first?"
" No. But I haven't laughed like that in ages." He shook his head with a smile.
" Well I'm glad my supposed ' shrub costume ' made you amused. But in all honesty, it's becoming a nuisance. It seems like the flowers and grass have barricaded themselves in." I said with a strained voice as I tugged a daisy out from the knots of my hair.
" Well while you clean out your hair, I think I'll enjoy the sun for a while. Ah, toasty." He set his hat to the side as he closed his eyes, a grin laying upon his thin lips. Not a second later, a bright blue butterfly landed upon the tip of his nose.
" Oh?" Snufkin lifted his eyes open, examining the beautiful creature:

" DON'T. MOVE." I whisper shouted, grabbing a hold of my sketchbook in a flash.
" Alright, but don't fum if I sneeze." He chuckled.
I began to work.
* 15 minutes later*
" Done!" I examined my work, satisfied with the final product.
" Finally. Fly away not little one! Shoo , shoo!" Snufkin swatted away the winged beauty.
" A blue swallowtail! How lovely." He stares after it, waving goodbye in the process.
" May I see how it turned out?" He asked.
" Why certainl-"
" What is this?" A dark purple noodle of an arm came from behind me, pulling the sketchbook from my grasp.
" Stinky?!" Snufkin gasped.
" Wha-?" I turned around to see a small, brown, hairy thing creature with a fat orange nose, and two little purple antenna like things sticking out from his head.
" Stinky, give it back."
" And why should I? Might be useful." The little creature had a nasally voice.
" I assure you , it's just all drawings and doodles. Nothing special really." I felt my stomach drop. 'Don't do anything to it..please..' I thought to myself.
" I don't know... I just might have a looksee.."
" Snufkin? What's going on?" Moomin and the others started to gather around the commotion.
" Oh no!" And with that, Stinky ran for it.
" NO!" I screamed, now running as fast as my legs could carry me. That wretched little creature laughed as he took off with my beloved sketchbook. And that's when I heard it..the sound of paper ripping. He threw back one of my sketches, one by one as he ran.
" These are all useless.." I could hear him mumbled.
" NO! STOP!" A lump started to form in my throat. He eventually dropped the book, still running. I rummaged through the grass to see where it had landed, tears starting to form in my eyes. As soon as my hand touched the hard cover, I tucked it under my arm, and began to search for the papers that were teared off. My chest ached as I picked them up, page by page, looking at how they were now crinkled at the edges, teared from the sides..
" (Y/N)!" I turned around to see the rest of my friends jogging towards me.
" (Y/N), what happe-" Snufkin cut himself short, looking at my tear streaked face, then looking at my hands, clenching to my papers. I didn't want to stay here. Not anymore. I just sprinted off.. not really knowing where I was going, but didn't care. I just wanted to be left alone.
Snufkins POV:
" (Y/N) , WAIT!" I yelled after her. I booked it, until I tripped over something.
" Snufkin! Are you okay?!" I heard Moomin call, concern in his voice.
" I'm okay Moomin." I got back on my feet, dusting myself off. I looked back to see what I had stepped on. Why.. it was one of (Y/N)'s sketching pages. I turned it around to see:

 I turned it around to see:

A drawing of me..
I sighed to myself. Poor (Y/N). She didn't deserve any of this. I should've warned her about that horrible Stinky. I folded the picture neatly into my robes pocket.
" What are we going to do Snufkin?" Moomin asked.
" Should we go after her?" Sniff questioned. I shook my head.
" You can all go home...but I'll be the one to find (Y/N)..one way or another."
