Forgotten in a Beast world

The interaction

My laugh surprised him and stops his growling. He stands up and towers over me. He makes me feel small. I hardly ever feel small, as I am a tall girl, but he is massive. He looks down at me.

“What were you trying to do?”

His voice is rich, deep and powerful as it rumbles out of his chest. I feel my body shiver in response.

I stumble over my words as I realize how weird it must look to wake up seeing me. A creature with a huge brown backpack that towers behind me, a big white floppy hiking hat with a blonde plait on the side hiding my ears, a royal blue hiking long sleeve shirt, dark grey hiking pants and hiking boots. And atop of all that I was, hunching next to him trying to touch his ears.

“Well,… you see… I was … checking if you were alive...? I kind of…. saw you lying unconscious on the floor. “

I couldn’t really tell this beast of a man I was trying to touch his fluffy ears. My cheeks heat up from embarrassment. He seems unconvinced. As I look all over his body except his eyes. That is when I see it.

“Wait, show me your arm”

I shout suddenly as I grab his arm and he snarls at me. The older sister in me can’t leave him bleeding. Especially, if I am the reason why. But he doesn’t need to know that part. I quickly take off my backpack and grab my first aid kit.

“What are you doing?”

He asks me, but my older sister in me doesn’t take nonsense, especially after growing up with trouble loving my little brother.

“Oh, just hold still so I can treat your wounds.”

I quickly use a disinfectant and bandaged his forearm, which must have gotten a cut somehow as I fell on him. He is looking at me strangely.

“ I cant figure you out? I wake up with you looking like you are going to attack me, then you are terrified but laugh at me, only to become embarrassed when I talk to you. Then you take charge and insist on treating my wounds. Why?”

I really do sound like I have mood swings, but the whole situation is just very overwhelming and just kind of winging it. Just trying to focus on one thing at a time.

“ Well, you were hurt and I could help. And besides, I got a fright. I didn’t expect you to wake up. So, I laughed at the situation and was embarrassed. Need any more details? Besides, I have a little brother that always gets hurt, so I am good at treating wounds.”

I told him the truth as I am not big on lying.It is kind of weird that he can read all my emotions so easily. He considers my answer. Then looks me in the eye.

“ But, what are you doing on my territory?. “

Okay, now I am lost. How am I supposed to answer this?
