my tsundere caretaker
I know I’m right! -Cheeks puffed, she huffs at him again.- Are you— are you actually asking me that? Of course you scared me, you big idiot! -She roughly takes his hand into her smaller ones and pouts at him.- I thought something really bad might have happened! And here you were, just the other day, telling me about how you weren’t going anywhere and— -She cuts herself short, not even wanting to consider anything like that.-
-She stares at him, chewing her lip for a moment, and then sighs, shoulders drooping noticeably.- … Yes. I was very worried. But seeing you is enough apology, I guess— Though between you and Ash, you know, I’m probably going to die very young of a heart attack.
[Eyes trail down to her hands, staring silently for a moment - before he resumes his gaze upon her.] I’m sorry, Cheryl … I don’t want to scare you. It was just a small accident— my fault, definitely … but it’s ok now. [Shifts his hand around, lifting hers into his instead, gently gripping onto it.] I’m still right here.
[Smiles lightly, letting out a soft chuckle through his nose.] It’s alright, Cheryl. The doctor said I’ll be fine in a week as long as I rest like this. So— don’t worry. [Gently lifts up her hand and brings it to his lips, kissing the back of it - before looking back at her.]
I’m glad you came to visit me … I’ll be more careful next time, okay?
