Work Text:

The roost was a bit empty. Isabelle came in pretty early. “Hi Brewster! I’ll order a mocha with lots of cream and three spoonfuls of sugar” She gave Brewster a handful of bells from her little purse.

“Coo… alright.” Brewster took the bells and began making the coffee. The door opened and Isabelle seemed to notice a familiar otter walk in.

“Hi, yeah, can I have a blend with a little bit of milk and two spoonfuls of sugar?” Lottie said, clearly sleepy, getting some bells.

Brewster took the bells and Isabelle waved to Lottie. “Fancy seeing you here, Lottie!”

“Fancy seeing you here too Izzy. You know, I usually don’t really see you here. Maybe because I get here early to energize myself for work.”

“Yeah, today, I just came here a bit earlier because I wanted to get an early start today.”

“Hey, since we’re already talking these to go, do you wanna chat for a bit?” Lottie wondered. “I still have some time before we open up Nook’s Homes”

“Sure!”


They sat on a bench outside the roost and chatted for a bit. Isabelle slowly noticed something. “Hey Lots, is something bothering you? You look a bit upset” she sipped her mocha

Lottie gulped. “Well, there’s this guy I like… and I’m not sure if he likes me back.”

“It’s Digby isn’t it?”

Lottie just nodded, not sure how she’ll take this information.

“It’s fine if you want to ask him out or something.” She punched Lottie’s shoulder. “Also you’re incredibly obvious that you like him.”

Lottie turned more pink then she usually is. “What? I was being obivous?”

“You put on makeup to impress him. You were being crystal clear if I do say so. Anyways I am actually pretty sure he likes you back.”

“Really?”

“Well I’m not entirely sure, but he does mention you a lot. And I’ll be more than happy to help set you two up.”

“Thanks Iz.” Lottie then pulled her into a hug.

“You’re welcome.” She hugged her back. It looked like she needed it. She nuzzled into her neck a bit and perked up when she heard a small chuckle. Isabelle pulled away. “Sorry. Did that tickle?”

“A bit.” Lottie scratched the back of her head akwardly. Big mistake.

Isabelle quickly made her way under her arm. “Ticklish?”

“Okay, okay.” Lottie managed to say through giggles. “Stop it.”

Isabelle moved her paws to her sides and stomach. “Not until you admit it!” She said mischievously.

“Ahahahahaha! Okay! I’m a bit ticklish!”

“Okay, I’ll stop.” She pulled her into another hug and gave a mischievous smile. “Right after this!” She blew a rasberry into her neck.

Lottie burst out laughing. “No! Ahahahaha!”

Isabelle poked her side. “Okay, now I’ll stop.”

“Gosh… that’s embarrassing to have your crush’s twin find out you’re ticklish.” Lottie admitted bashfully. “Like really only my family knows.” She chuckled. “Please don’t tell anyone about this.”

“Oh I won’t tell anyone. But if you hurt Digby…” She wiggled her little paw beans. After a few seconds they both laughed, Isabelle’s bells jingling while she giggled. “Only messing with you. I know you wouldn’t do anything to hurt him.”

Lottie chuckled with her. “I know, you just scared me for a second. Plus you’re not that mean.”

“True true.” She checked her watch. “Oh, got to get back to town hall.”

“Mr. Nook should be opening up soon too. Well, I’ll see ya around!”

“See ya!”

Notes:
