CACTUS X READER

A prickly conversation

You woke up to the sound of shuffling. As you slowly lifted your head you felt someone's presence around you.

When you slowly opened your eyes,you saw that you were surrounded by what appeared to be a household? 'Seems more like a cabin to me..' you thought to yourself for a moment before turning you head around only to see a frightened cactus man?

'Maybe I'm just high off dust?' You thought trying to make sense of the situation in your mind.

"Oh!..Umm.....n-nice to see your ok.." said the stranger.

You were silent. Dead silent.

"Um..sorry if I did something to hurt you..It really wasn't my intention." Stated the man.

You just kept silent, with a blank expression.

You and the stranger just kept starting at each other not knowing what else to say at the moment.

You were on what appeared to a pile of blankets and pillows so you lied back down hoping that this was just some coma-induced dream.

It was then and there that you started to realize all of the bandages on you arms and legs. Some stitches here and there but nothing *to bad. Strangely enough you noticed that from the corner of your eye you saw that the man was tinkering with some stuff apparently looking for something.

? CACTUS'S P.O.V (leave a name please I don't know what to call the cactus)

What I was looking for was some thicc gloves.
Why? Well I just needed to see if her wounds have gotten worse overtime.
She was the only one I've seen in a long time.

Finally I turned to her and asked,"hey you hungry?" She nodded. I found the gloves while slipping them on slowly looking at her straight in the eye.

Her face went red in embarrassment, such an odd reaction.

Anyway, I looked at the soup in my pot,'Seems bout done' I thought to myself.

I brought the food out to her in a hot plate and gently placed it down in her lap. Since she was covered in blankets I thought she wouldn't get burned to much.

But why was I worried!?

I left her alone and went over to the fire-place. Heard there was gonna be rain tomorrow so I was just getting prepared.(it was a rare thing ok?) Besides I haven't really been one to talk much..let alone to a girl..I blushed thinking about how I had to unclip her bra in order to get rid of the spikes that still hung onto her back.

I didn't look or anything! She was unconscious anyway and besides all I had to do was flip her over so don't get any ideas!

But back to the present we both just sat in silence...

Your P.O.V

Knowing I just had to say something..I wanted to ask him something that had been on my mind lately...so I asked.......
