The Scientist's Partner - Wilson x Reader [Don't Starve]

Y/N P.O.V

The heavy pellets of rain beated down against your small house and the vast vegetation that bordered it. You sat by the window, staring into the sky, which at the moment was covered in thick, dark storm clouds. A sigh escaped your mouth as you stood up on a mission. Entertain yourself.

You walked around the living space looking for something to occupy yourself with. Normally on gloomy days like this you could be found laying in the warm comfort of your mattress and sheets with an interesting book in your hands, but you wanted more. Something a little more physically stimulating, rather than shadowing into your room and fixating yourself to a book. Nope, today you were going to pry yourself away from your beloved bedroom and find something else to do.

Minutes passed and you were still uncontrollably bored. You decided that maybe the best option would be to catch up on some sleep. Although not "physically stimulating", you felt like this was important. You laid in a comfortable position on your chair and closed your eyes.

Ring...ring...ring...

Your telephone was ringing. With an intrigued attitude you forced yourself up and reached for the phone.

"Hello?" You answered, waiting for a response.

"Hello" A deep but tuneful voice echoed back.
"I see that you're bored."

You froze. Were you being watched?

"I...who are you?" You asked.

"You will find out soon enough. Don't you seek entertainment?"

He wasn't wrong. But you knew much better than to become mislead by this mysterious figure.

"I'm sorry, i have to-"
"Place the phone onto the table" He ordered, cutting off your attempt to end the call.

"I'm sorry i really don't-"
"Now."

You rolled your eyes. Figuratively and literally. You were being threatened by someone on a phoneline. How petty can people get?

"I don't have to do anything" You snapped at him, receiving a dead silence for a while.

"What if i gave you...[insert something you have always wanted/desired]"

You stood there for a minute, thinking. This guy was either serious or just some asshole.

"Prove it" You coldly snapped.

All at once [Wanted item/mental gift etc] came to you.

"Huh...h..how?"
"Now put the phone on the table."

You reluctantly obeyed and stood silently.

"Be prepared" You heard the faint voice from the phone speak.

Before you could ask what he meant by that, two shadow looking arms came stretching out of the phone. In a panic you screamed and tried to pull yourself away. Terrifying thoughts penetrated your mind as the situaion escalated by the second.

But then it all cut off.

You fell unconscious.

1 hour later

A pain tugged at your sides as you groggily rose from the heavily scented ground. You sat up, raising a hand to your forehead, trying to pull together your dizzy mind. As your vision began to become clearer, a tall figure loomed over you. He was wearing a suit, a neat dark hair and looked much older than you.

"Got to say, you're looking great considering what just happened"
"What-"
"My name is Maxwell. Enjoy your stay. Lets see how long you last."

He laughed chaotically, disappearing from where you were.

Panic surged through your body.

"Hello?! Where am i?!" You called out.

No answer.

You could not believe this. You looked around. You appeared to be in a heavily forested area. A gust of wind swept your (length/colour) hair into your face. You held yourself tightly for warmth, walking through this unfamiliar terrain.

You were frightened, to say the least. You were lost, tired and worst of all alone.

You didn't feel like doing anything but sitting down and crying in an anxious ball of frustration. You wanted to believe that this was all just a dream, but it felt too real. You were lost. Alone. You were going to die. Starvation, natural disaster. Who knows.

In an attempt to calm down and distract yourself, you laid on a bed of grass and examined the area. It was undeniably quite pretty. The grass was bright green, there wasn't a cloud in the sky, you were surrounded by beautiful pink flowers and more serene components. The more you thought about it, the less anxious you felt. You breathed in deeply, laid down and closed your eyes.

The peace was interupted by a rustle behind you.

You jolted and spun around, eyes scanning the area behind you. You couldn't detect anything with your eyes, and just decided to shake it off, for the sake of your newly found calmness. You turned back around and screamed from surprise.

A man was knelt in front of you. He was extremely pale with dark bags under his eyes, messy black hair almost in the shape of a 'W', he wore a white dress shirt, red vest, black pants, gloves & shoes and had a spear in hand.

"Who are you?" He asked, face inches away from yours.

"...Y/N. I- I don't really know how or why i'm here." You responded.

"Ah. My name is Wilson"

He extended an arm, offering a hand up. You grabbed his hand and he pulled you up with an unexpectedly strong force, making you stumble into him a bit.

You awkwardly laughed.

"Sorry.." You apologised.

"For what? Falling? No apology needed, miss" He answered with a slight smile.

A real gentleman.

"It's getting dark, follow me" He kindly commanded, giving you a warm and welcoming smile when he saw your face grow hesitant. You followed him as he lead you to a small camp.

He sat down and looked up at you, motioning you to sit down with him. With a smile, you sat down and thanked him for the hospitality.

"It is nice to have company" He said, cooking what appeared to be carrots over the bonfire.

"How long have you been here?" You inquired, scanning the camp with your eyes.

"5...maybe 6 days. Not too long." He responded, starting up a fire.

"It's almost dark" He muttered almost in a frightened manner, making sure the fire was lit as big as possible.

He stood up and stretched.

"What is this place?" You inquired, standing up with him.

He shrugged in response, turning to you.

"Just stay with me for a while. It'll be okay."
