Prompt 138

Geralt has a garden in his backyard, of which he's very proud of and very attentive to. He grows vegetables and roots and such, unlike his nextdoor neighbor, of whom grows flowers. Geralt prefers something practical. Something he can eat or give his brothers to eat, rather than just something that "looks pretty". He does like how many bees his neighbor's flowers draw in, though. Geralt has reluctantly grown somewhat of a friendship with the strange man he lives next to. For about five years now, his neighbor, Jaskier, has forced himself into Geralt's house and life. He drops by with unplanned brunches, and brings Geralt tea and soup when Geralt gets too sick to garden, and he and Geralt occasionally meet in one of their houses to drink wine until they both can't think. Geralt does appreciate all of this. He's grown to quite like Jaskier. Which is why he's been dealing with Jaskier's recent oddities.

"Oh darling, your veggies are so big!" "It's for a contest." "Contest or not, I'd love to see your melons~" "Come over, then, they're in the left patch." "Oh- Okay!" "I've just picked the last of my cucumbers." "Isn't there one last cucumber you could show me?~" "No, I just said I picked them all?" "Do you grow any corn, Geralt?" "No." "A shame! I'd love a cob in my mouth right about now~" "I'm sure there's some cheap at the farmer's market." It's the night before the contest. Geralt is laying in his bed staring at the ceiling as it rains heavily outside. Geralt thinks back on his recent interactions with his neighbor, and suddenly sits up with a jolt. WAIT. BANG BANG BANG! Jaskier yawns and saunters to the door in his best robe, still holding a cup of tea. He opens the door and is met with a soaking wet Geralt. "Geralt? What are you doing over so late?" "Were you flirting with me?" "What?" "Were you flirting with me? With the comments about the vegetables?" "I've been flirting with you for five years now." "...Can I kiss you?"
