This story was also requested by x_friday, if you would like a certain Animal Crossing ship to be used, please make requests on the introduction of this collection.

[3rd Person]

Raymond was busy chilling under a tree on a hot summer morning, hoping for some shade. With a book and a cup of coffee beside him, it was surely going to be a relaxing day for him. He picked up his book, an expensive, first edition copy of "Murder in Mid-May", his favourite book. For some unknown reason, the hustle and bustle of the rest of the island just didn't fit his mood today.

However, stuck in her house was Lolly, not knowing what on Earth she was supposed to do.

"It would be best to be healthy and get a small walk in, I guess I'm just getting to walk around the island." she thought to herself. And she left her house.

[Raymond POV]

This is Raymond reading in his head.

Jessica took out the gun.
"Calm down everyone" I'll find out who did this, even if it kills me." Screaming. "I said calm down!" The fiery emotion was very obviously visib-

[3rd Person]

Bang.

Something dropped.

Raymond thought nothing of it, after all, fruit is always dropping on the ground.

Buzz...

Nevermind. A wasps nest had been knocked out the tree. Raymond turned around to find wasps coming towards him, planning to attack him with the sharp pains of the stingers and on the other side of the tree, Lolly, who had just realized what was going on.

[Lolly's POV]

I saw Raymond lying on the ground in front of me, face red due to the stings. I dash over to him, feeling awful about what I had done. Trying to wake him up, I lean over him. I placed my shaky paws anxiously on his hips, and moved him about and to my relief, he woke up!

"What are you doing to me?" He asked impolitely while stuttering his words.

I didn't know what to say, I couldn't tell if it was just me or he was going even redder in the face. I stayed silent.

"Well?"

"I.. erm.."

"Don't have an answer? I see." Raymond snapped as he was staring into my eyes. At that moment, I felt.. awful. I sprinted. Sprinted to the most deserted place to the island.

Maybe if I find some weeds here, should be easy as this place is pretty isolated.

[3rd Person]

No less than a minute later, she had found the three weeds the needed. However, problem struck pretty quickly when Lolly realized she had to get a wasps nest to craft the medicine. Panic arose. If Lolly had to go get a wasps nest, then she either had to shake loads of trees to find one or go back to where Raymond was sitting. This means she has to risk hurting herself for Raymond or face another awkward interaction. The second option was the one Lolly chose.

But when she went back to where Raymond was sitting, he was gone - the only thing that was left was a wasps nest and spilt coffee. After checking the wasps nest to see if it was empty, Lolly picked it up. Raymond had probably gone home; he had gotten quite unlucky.

Returning home, Lolly set up her crafting table. How could've a simple walk turn into an embarrassing scenario? Making medicine was tedious and took about ten minutes, and the whole time Lolly was scared about her interaction with Raymond.

[Raymond POV]

I closed my door, escaping from the warm, breezy world outside into my office-like interior. Trying to process what happened, I sat down and continued reading- giving up on my injured face. All of a sudden, I realized, I felt warm (not because of the hot day) and was red in the face (despite the stings). Did I... like Lolly? No, that's just weird and I'm not seeing this chance occurrence as 'bonding time.' Never. I felt sick. Maybe I should read to take my mi-

There was a knock on my door. I went to go answer it.

"H-hey- excuse the loo-"

It was Lolly. I went red all over again.

"Oh.. its you..." She stood there wanting to talk to me but it looked as if she couldn't find the words. "Still have nothing to say?" She nodded her head violently and held her paws out. There was medicine in her paws.

"Here!" Lolly squeaked. I took the medicine. I felt better already and the stings looked like they had already gone. I stared up at her, feeling warm.

"Thank you." I said, breaking the silence. Excitedly, Lolly jumped on me.

"I'm sorry!" She shouted. I laughed

"It's fine. Accidents happen." Feeling grateful for what she had done, I hugged her.

You could feel the shock immediately.
