Stuck with You..

Recap
    "What the f-" I began.
    "You're up." She simply stated.

3rd P.O.V.

Ben and the young girl stared each other down. With each passing second more agonizing than the last. Ben was not about to lose to a mortal girl. Not now, not ever. As much as he tried though, he ended up blinking first, much to his dismay.
"Alright..what do you want to know?" He grumbled.
"I want to know why you're different! I want to know why you're here, and why you tried to kill me!" (Y/n) huffed and crossed her arms.
Ben cocked his eyebrow and realized what she meant..the knife! She must've found it!

Ben's P.O.V.

"Uh..I-I..I don't know what you're t-talking about.." I stuttered..that's never good..I sighed and looked down at my feet. I noticed all the things I brought with me onto the floor. Holy hell..so then that means she..she checked me..EVERYWHERE..I didn't even realize my own face had started growing hot and started turning red. I caught her staring at me with a weird expression on her face.
"L-Like what y-you sEe..?" I tried to be seductive, but I was still nervous and I had a voice crack..great job Ben..
"Not really, see unlike you, I have some taste." She sneered.
Hmm..feisty..I like it..I smirked which freaked her out.
Hah..
.
..
...
Gotcha.
Her weakness must be a guy's smirk. Well I can see why, mine's irresistible!

(Y/n)'s P.O.V.

Is..is he really trying to flirt? Disgusting. I sighed.
"I just wanted a normal afternoon, not having to deal with some psychopathic-elf boy who looks like a child!" I huffed and tugged at my hair, wanting to wake up from this nightmare.
"I honestly don't want you here but I don't know what you'd do if I let you go. And I don't want to know." I sighed again and looked down. I caught a glimpse of his face and I saw his eyes spark with hurt. I shook it off because if he came here with the tendency or intention of hurting me, then he couldn't possibly harbor any type of feelings..right? No-...my thoughts were interrupted by Ben's stomach growling.

Ben's P.O.V.

FU—

3rd P.O.V.

"What do you want?" She asked.
   "W-what?" He squeaked.
   "Well I'm not going to let you starve. What do you want to eat?" She asked further.
   "What's with all the kindness all of a sudden? Wait..since you searched every part of me, you found the poison..are you going to poison me!?" He yelled out idiotically.
   "W-what!?" She snickered. "You think I'd waste perfectly good poison on you!?" She started laughing which evidently, angered Ben. She was starting to get cocky. He couldn't have that. He has to show her who's really in charge. But since he's chained up, which is his weakness, what could he do other than squirm and beg to be let go?
His stomach growled again, this time, it was more painful than the last. He groaned and his head shot up to try and find (y/n)'s eyes. He hoped he could find some kindness in her, at least long enough to let him live.
   "C'mon! Let me go! Please! I'm hungry! I didn't eat all freaking week! Please! I'll do anything! Just let me go! I promise I won't do anything weird! Pinky swear!" He pleaded. He wasn't trying to pull a trick, he was really starting to get desperate, and seriously hungry. His stomach was really starting to hurt.
  He tried to curl up so he could ease the pain but of course, the restraints didn't allow him to move much.
  (Y/n) quickly took note of this and kneeled down next to him. She reached out to rub his stomach, since (y/n)'s mom would do that to soothe an "upset tummy" as she would say, but Ben instantly got feral and almost bit her.
  Honestly, he didn't mean to do that, but he hadn't eaten in a while as a punishment from The Boss Man Himself.
  Ben actually had a brief moment of relief from the pain from (y/n) trying to rub his stomach, but he couldn't have her knowing that.
  In all honesty, he yearned for her soothing touch again because she had a very calming attribute to her, and it seemed like she cared.
  (Y/n) gasped quietly as she quickly retracted her hand. She backed up from him a little bit, and Ben instantly felt bad.
   "N-no wait! Do it again! It-it hurt less when you rubbed my stomach.." Ben looked down in embarrassment. Never in his life would he have thought he would be asking a mortal girl to ease his pain.
   "I'm sorry I almost bit you..but can you just.." Ben sighed. "Rub my stomach?" He looked in her eyes with a pained expression.
   "If-if I untie you, you won't do anything weird?" She asked, skeptical.
   "Yes! I promise! You won't regret it! And if I do anything weird, you can kill me on the spot!" He pleaded, desperation obvious in his tone.
  (Y/n) quickly untied him and Ben was quick to get her hands. She almost screamed and punched him, when she realized he put her hands to his stomach.
   "Oh..!" She said quietly, then rubbed his stomach gently, applying a bit of pressure every few seconds.
  Ben instantly felt relief and felt more at ease. After a few minutes, he felt 10x's better and sighed contently. She slowly took her hand away when she saw Ben's face change from one of pain, to one of slight happiness.
   "Hey, how about we get you something to eat?" She asked softly.
  Ben opened his "eyes" and nodded eagerly.
   "Yeah, but uhm..can you not mention this to anyone?" He chuckled nervously. "I-uh-..kind of have a reputation to maintain." He held out his pinky to hers.
(Y/n) laughed a bit, but nodded.
   "Yeah totally, I promise." She interlocked her pinky with his. "Besides, who would I tell anyways?" She asked rhetorically.
  They both looked at each other and chuckled.

YEET❤️
Sorry about the inconsistency in the beginning but I was a bit unfocused at the start then I stated to catch a feel for the story and finally stuck with something that made a bit more sense.
ALSO
that part about the tummy rubbing?
I got inspiration from AWildBimbo 's Chucky story and decided to use it! So I hope you don't mind AWildBimbo !!
