Having a skeleton husband is not that nice

by Naryhey

Summary:

Monsters have come to the surface, and with that a lot of probelms have been caused, so maybe a marriage between two people from the two races might help?

Notes:

I don't even know guys, let's go

Chapter 1

"Y/n" mr.hatchett greets as you walk in his office

"Hey" you say, closing the door behind yourself.

Blake hatchett, an extremely strong man, the literal general of the special magical force -which you just call it special force- also your higher up, as the captain of this branch of the special force you are under his direct orders. Your job is like 70% about taking orders from him.

It doesn't matter though. He is a GENIUS in strategy and battle, no wonder he's the general.

He's also your (adoptive) dad. And yep, you do have his last name. You changed it a few months ago

"Have a seat" he says quite sternly, oh, then this is about work huh?

He NEVER jokes about his job

"Am i in trouble?" You ask in a joking manner as you walk and sit on one of the many chairs he has in his office

He locks his hands together, putting his elbows on the table as he leans against it

"Well, I'm sure you already know about all the problems monsters arrival has caused. What do you think of monsters and the problems?" He asks seriously

What kind of a question is that? Why is he asking it like that? Whatever

"Eh, i don't really mind" you shrug "and the problems, well they want to live too. If us humans took the surface from them then we have to bear some rough patches to make them come back to their normal lives, yeah it wasn't us, but it was our ancestors" you explain your reasonings

Monsters have made their way to the surface around 5 months ago. There was a sudden surge of magic, it was like a wave hitting you and everyone else, you were on a mission at the time so you couldn't go see what happened.

Mr.hatchett sent a team there for investigations and yep, it was revealed that those two humans going missing on mount ebott awhile ago were in the UNDERGROUND the whole time. Living with a bunch of monsters.

With those two as ambassadors humans and monsters are now trying to co-live together. It's not bad, but it's far from good. Racists, fights, lack of space, cultural differences, fear and even hostility have been making it hard but both sides have been trying to help as best as they can

Mr.hatchett nods

"Have you ever thought about what would be an amazing way to get humans and monsters to get along? Something like a shortcut" he says as he pushes himself up and starts walking around the table

"Something that might prove to people that humans and monsters CAN get along" he says, coming to a stop infront of his desk, holding his hands behind his back

"Uuhh... no?" You say, unsure of what he's trying to get at

"Maybe a rolemodel?" He says simply "a human and monster, getting along just fine and even get closer than friends"

"Uh huh, i get it now, a human and monster dating and we'll make sure everyone knows"

"Not date, marry"

"Ma-" you look at him with a baffled look "marry? There's a couple out there that want to get married?"

Wow they move fast

"No. This was the queen of monsters' and i's idea. We have decided to basically have an arranged marriage"

"You do know those don't usually last right? Not to mention how an arranged marriage most of the time makes the two hate eachother"

"They'll just have to act like they love eachother infront of the media and people"

"So who are these two lovebirds? Are they SOULMATES?" after all in this world, people are borned with a destiny, with a SOULMATE

A person said to be the best match for you, two people made just for eachother, now the way to find your SOULMATE is a little hard, everyone has one clue, the tattoo they are born with. An image giving you a small hint of who the SOULMATE might be

Yours is a small, cartoony bone, maybe he's a dog person?

you didn't know monsters and humans could be eachothers SOULMATES though

"No they are not, and that's exactly why i called you here. The person the queen has in mind is the captain of the royal guard, basically one of the strongest monsters. So i want you, to gather a list of every single person you'd deem befitting. The person doesn't need to have many qualities. Just be around 21 to 30-"

"Wait wait wait, why?" Is this captain a creep that likes young women?

"Because the captains age in human years is around the same thing" he explains which makes you nod "as i was saying, decent amount of magic and good at acting. We need the list for thursday" today is tuesday

"Gatcha" you say, standing up "I'll get started immediately sir" you fake salute and walk towards the door "have a good rest of the day!" You say, walking out the room, noticing him shaking his head as you close the door

You just chuckle as you start walking towards your office. Ugh, finding the right person is basically paperwork. Going through the files of everyone to find the right person, but you guess if it's going to lessen the street fights and aggressions then it's kinda worth it

Walking inside your office you go straight to your desk to get started.

Mr.hatchett really cares about order and being on-time. Plus, most likely the queen wants it by thursday if he gave you a deadline so soon

Whatever, you just have to search around a bit

Hmm... good magic. Now a lot of people here have amazing magic BUT they can't even begin to compete with the people from your branch so you have to choose the candidate from your branch.

But again you don't want the queen to look down at mr.hatchett, ok fine, you'll make two lists, one with only women from your branch and one with the other branches women.

This is gonna be a long day

Chapter 2

"Are you sure everyone is here?" Mr.hatchett says, checking the list you've spend about 2 days on

"Of course. I've checked the list about 2 times, and have made sure everyone is here" you say, almost too proudly as you look at the women who are standing in the investigation rooms, talking with eachother.

After readying the list they were told to come here today, they haven't been told the reason, and neither are they going to get told but they still obeyed which is honestly normal, in this working place everyone knows, always listen to your higher up

He nods "then you can go for your break, dear" he says as he starts walking away to get things ready

Yeah, break is good. Extremely good, you start walking away, going outside, there's a pretty good cafe closeby, rachel is most likely going to come with you too

Rachel is your, dare you say, best friend. Your friendship with her started with her getting on your nerves 24/7 but well, you're kinda happy that happened

"Since when are you a pimp?" Rachels voice booms out as you suddenly feel an arm wrapping around your neck and some pressure on your back which makes you stumble forward.

"Oh my god, shut up" you say, catching yourself and straightening yourself up as you start walking towards where the cafe is with rachel following you 

"How'd it go?" She asks, finally letting go of you 

You shrug making her look at you questioningly so you elaborate

"The queen is still not here yet, and it's my break so i left before she arrived"

Rachel nods as you two walk, on the way, in the line, and even when you were eating you and her did not stop chatting. You see eachother everyday but still have even more things to say (somehow)

After eating something you two start walking towards the headquarter.

It's been 2 hours now, you wonder who the queen chose. You feel like it's going to be that one girl, you don't remember her name but she is extremely pretty, not to mention she seems like she would do an amazing job being a wife

After a bit more talking and walking and acting like idiots you finally get back

"I gotta go, see you later" rachel says, hugging you before starting to run.

You wave begore going inside and seeing a... a goat monster? Oh! She's the queen Isn't she?

You walk towards her, greeting her as you come to a stop 

"Hello your majesty" you say, with a small nod-like bow

She turns around, smiling at you even though you can say it's obviously fake and forced, you're not going to comment on it though

"Hello little one, did you need anything?"

"Oh no, i just wanted to say hi and see, which one did you pick?" You ask, putting a hand on your hip "shouldn't the captain be here himself though? I mean it's his wife" you say which makes her eyes widen slightly. Yeah cause not everyone knows about this. Actually it's just you, Mr.hatchett, rachel and micheal

To put it bluntly micheal is the tech guy and is like a manager. He also acts as backup sometimes, not physically of course but he tells you what to do with the help of his cameras

"Well, he is busy. Also, noone really stood out" she says, looking back at the girls who are now leaving the room

"I assure you, we have handpicked our bests, so if you have not picked one... they are the only options" you explain, maybe she thoyght there well multiple

"I must say, i have had a small research myself, and there IS someone who has gotten my attention, but i did not find her there. I believe you have missed her out while 'handpicking'" she says the last part in an almost mocking tone.

"I assure you, i have went over the list multiple times, there's noone missing. How about you tell me her name and we can talk to her? You most likely just didn't notice her"

"Her name was y/n hatchett from whwt i saw, are they related? The general and her" she says making your face go blank for a few seconds

"Uh... excuse me you said who?" Ain't noway she just said that, you must have heard it wrong

"Y/n hatchett" she repeats

"Well uh... she... like..." you can't even form sentences at this point! What the hell?! All this girls you chose just for her to choose you?! "Why her? How do you even... how do you even know that name?" You ask, with a small frown

"I am not bound to answer that question" she says her eyes narrowing slightly "but just this once, i will. We have files of all the s.m.f's agents. I knew you couldn't do it probably so i went on my own research" oh yeah, the monsters were given the files of all of you and your coworkers, but they were without pictures, just to make sure.

"With all due respect, i KNOW how to do my job, also she's unavailable" yeah, you're not marrying some random dude you've never met

You've been waiting for your SOULMATE for all this time! Never getting in a relationship or anything just for you to marry this random dude?!

"And why is that?"

"Ma'am. What made you choose her?"

"Answer my question" she says

Damn this is tiring

You sigh out of exhaustion, you just came back from your break but you'll be needing another one by the end of this conversation

"She does not want to get married, let alone to a random dude. She's quite busy as you probably know" being the captain of the special force is TOO much work, it pays good but they make you work enough that you literally earn every single penny

"I will have to have a talk with her then. I'll convince her myself, where is she at the moment?"

"Can i just know why you chose her?" She seems to be wanting her answer right now as she opens her mouth to object "i promise I'll answer you after this"

"Because she seems suitable, why else? But the main factor is that she's the captain" that's literally the reason you're not well-fit for this "two captains, two of the strongests will be amazing for this. Both have many fans that will follow their leads. She's the best option we have, now, answer me"

"Y/n hatchett, that's me and I'm afraid you can't really convince me to change my mind" you say sternly. Her eyes widen upon hearing the revelation

"You? Then why- why didn't you say that sooner?" She says, her cold tone long gone.

Seriously?

"I mean, when you want to force me into a marriage with your captain. Introducing myself is not only awkward but also kinda weird"

"Dear, I'm sure you two will get along just fine! This is an important matter, making a small sacrifice to help two whole races isn't really that bad. Plus don't think of it like that" she looks around seeing all the people around "can we please continue this in a more private space?" She says

"I don't think this conversation needs continuation your majesty"

"This is an important matter and the wedding is already being planned, we don't have enough time" she says, now the sterness coming back to her voice

"Then choose someone else, your majesty that is my last answer, no" you say "now if you'll excuse me i have a lot of things to do" you say turning around and walking away to go to your office

Honestly though! You? Marrying someone you don't even know? Yeah no, you're not even ready for dating yet

Even if he was your SOULMATE you're not ready...

No way in hell are you marrying this dude

Chapter 3

"You got in trouble again?" Rachel says, companying you for a little until you reach mr.hatchett's office

"Nah, I'm pretty sure i haven't done anything wrong"

"Pretty sure? Like how pretty?"

"Extremely"

"Then why has he called you in AGAIN?"

"Do i look like i have an idea? But... thinking about it maybe..."

"Maybe what?"

"Maybe it's about the whole marriage stuff" you say shruging, you have retold the whole thing to rachel

"Maybe. But really though, i would die if i was in that situation"

And yet, her reaction was laughter, laughing at your misery

"You can do this girl" she says, punching your arm lightly making you nod and take a deep breath before opening the door and seeing mr.hatchett sitting there... alongside the queen.

Yeah, amazing.

Rachel goes her own way as you go inside

"Hello sir, your majesty" you say nodding to each one as you greet them

"Hello little one" the queen greets

"Hello" your other company says, he seems to be more stern and on edge than normal, most likely cause you're not alone and have company, and not just any company, the queen herself "have a seat" he continues and you obey immediately, sitting down on a chair on the opposite side of the queens

"How have you been dear" the queen says, the same smile she wore on that day on her face again

"Good, thank you for asking" you say before looking at dad mr.hatchett "is everything ok?"

"Yes. y/n... you are the one that the queen has chosen for this marriage" you're about to say something when he raises a hand, silencing you "but I'm sure you already know that. Dear, i want to ask you to reconsider your answer to this matter"

"What?!"

Him saying that?! Why would he?!

"I understand your dismay and concerns, but that's for the best. Plus, this is not going to be a real marriage"

"That's correct, you will only act like a couple infront of people and in public, you can do whatever you want aside from that! Whatever, even being with others" the queen continues

She thinks you don't want to get married because of sex?!

"So this is an open marriage?! That makes it ten times worse!" Really?! Open marriages?! If you're going to have an open relationship, why have a relationship in the first place?

The queen looks slightly taken aback

"But i thought..." she shakes her head slightly before talking "just think of this as having roomates" she offers with a small smile

"No, i don't want roomates, thanks. Also, just choose someone else, anyone else, there are people who are extremely close to me in the sense of magic" you argue

"But they're not the captain" she says, shaking her head as if she's tired

She's tired?! Hell nuh, you're the one who's supposed to be tired!

"It's not that big of a deal, it's just a small arrangement that won't really change your life"

"Marriage is just 'a small arrangement'? Are we talking about the same thing right now? And i have a whole SOULMATE!" This is getting more and more stupid, mr.hatchett isn't saying anything, just watching how this goes

"This is not a real marriage! Listen, just a small ceremony, and the fact that you'll live in the same house, aside from that, there will be nothing. He won't bother you, you don't have to do anything either. You won't have to cook, clean, or anything. Just attend a few balls and events with him here and there. That's it"

Still...

"I think i can handle this, please get back to more important things your majesty" mr.hatchett finally says, standing up as does the queen. The two going to the door and the queen leaving before he closes the door and comes to seat on the seat infront of you

"What's the matter?" He asks softly

"I don't want to marry someone i don't know. I don't want to get married at all! I have decided to wait and i have for all these years!"

"I understand that, but as she said this isn't even a marriage, plus you can take advantage of it at times too. Like when you want to reject someone? I've seen you have problems with that" he says, yeah you do. People just don't take 'no' for an answer sometimes "you can just tell them you're married. Also, having some roomates might help you, plus since it's arranged and open, any time you find your SOULMATE, you can start dating them"

"I don't know... marriage is still drastic... why are you going along with this eitherway?" You ask, looking confused as you tilt your head to the side slightly

"The queen is not going to change her mind, i tried. This is an amazing opportunity to create a better bond between humans and monsters, and her reasoning makes sense, she's not giving up" he explains before putting a hand on your shoulder and continuing "i feel like this 'marriage' will actually be a good thing, not for others, but for you. Also, just to make it up to you, what about a good pay raise?"

"Are you buying my hand in marriage?" You say jokingly

"Kinda" he chuckles "and how about an extra off day?" That sounds extremely temptimg "still not convinced? God you're so expensive." He says, shaking his head, you know he's joking though "fine, all of that plus a day of working at home"

He can just force you into doing this by ordering you and making this your mission, so you'll definitely take this. If this is a fake marriage and you'll take all this privileges then why not

Plus... you'll get your SOULMATE when the time comes...

"So?" He asks, with a smile

"I'm in i guess" you say with a smile of your own

"You get to have a wedding day too, you can choose the dress yourself and make changes in the plans as well, I've talked with the queen about it" he says

Wait, a wedding day?! Without actually marrying?! You have actually always wanted something like that after seeing weddings and the brides in those gowns

"Seriously?!" You ask excitedly

"Of course" he says, nodding

"Thanks!" You say hugging him, he hugs you back with a small smile

"You're welcome"

Chapter 4

"You accepted?!" Rachel asks, louder than she should

"Yep, honestly couldn't say no to dad... not to mention the privileges" you nod

"I mean, i kinda get it too... so, a wedding huh? Got any ideas?"

"Definitely. We gotta look for a wedding dress first though. The wedding is scheduled for (choose a month and day;) )"

"That's just a month away!"

"I know right?"

"We'll start shopping today! Right after work"

"Nah, I'm really tired right now. We'll just go on our off day, it's in a few days eitherway"

"Ugh, whatever, you're hopeless" she says, shaking her head which makes you roll your eyes

"So when are you meeting the guy?" 

"Tomorrow, he'll be here with the queen to, as they said, 'put our boundaries'"

"Makes sense"

°°°°°☆°°°°°

"girl, don't back down ok?" rachel says as you're about to open the door. Your future 'husband' is on the other side, with queen toriel and mr.hatchett. rachel is allowed to come with you so you two are going together

"Acting like you doubt it" you say with a smirk before knocking and going inside

"Hell-" your greeting dies in your throat as you see the guy is... a skeleton?

A SKELETON?!

he looks at you with his eye... eyelights, they look like purple tri-forces, one of them has a white circle behind it but the other doesn't

He looks annoyed, even more that you felt a few days ago

"Uh..." you shake your head slightly "Hello" you say with a smile as rachel walks in and snorts slightly

"You're going to be literally boned" she says silently so that only you can hear but if the chuckle that rises is any indication, she failed

Looking at the source, it's another skeleton, sitting on the same couch as the first one, this one is taller with an eyepatch on one socket, and unlike the other one this one looks kinda unkempt

You nudge rachel with your elbow before walking in as she closes the door

The taller one stands up and extends a hand, you go in to shake his hand when the first one stands up and catches it by the wrist, not letting you

The heck?

He looks pointedly at the taller one and he chuckles, rotating his hand to reveal a buzzer

"A buzzer? Seriously?" You say, looking at the buzzer on his hand "honestly, same" you say, pulling your own buzzer out of your pocket

He looks at it a little before laughing again

"Yeah, i like her" he says, looking at the others.

The others contains queen toriel which is at the head of the couch. Next to her the short skeleton, next to him a human girl... wait is that? That's the ambassador isn't she? What was her name? You honestly can't remember, who cares? Next to her is the tall skeleton

Wait, is HE the guy? He doesn't seem that bad

Now you finally observe his appearance, not in a way that he notices though. He's wearing a purple unzipped sweater that shows his black shirt under it, black shorts, socks and slippers

You feel the humans glare on you and look at her before looking back at the tall skeleton and shaking his hand with an introduction 

"Hello, nice to meet you, the names y/n" you say with a smile

"Papyrus, nice to meet you sweatheart" he says with a wink, how the hell did he wink? Whatever, how can people literally fly?

You move to the human who is still sitting down

She stands up, taking your hand and putting too much force in the shake, most likely to intimidate you or something? Whatever, it's not like she's that strong for it to hurt badly

"Y/n, as i said" you try to act as friendly as you can in this situation which is not all that much

"Nathalie" she says simply but with a bite in her voice, the fuck is her problem?

After her you move to the shorter dude, he is wearing the uniform of the royal guard you have seen so many times by now, yeah this is most likely the dude. Damn.

He shakes your hand sternly, in a calculated motion.

Ugh, motherfucker is like a robot

This is not going to be fun at all 

"Again, nice to meet you. I'm Y/n"

"SANS" he says simply

You just nod at the queen before taking a seat opposite side of the group

Rachel does the same after introducing herself

"So, which one is it?" Nathalie asks, sounding annoyed

"It's y/n, I'm sure you will get along" the queen says with a smile

"Oh I'm sure of that" Papyrus exclaims

"Should we ask the same question?" Rachel says jokingly, trying to lighten the mood a bit

"The answer would be sans"

Yeah, nice. 

Yay.

He looks at you with a cold expression but you try to keep the friendly expression on

"Who are you?" Rachel asks nathalie

"You talk too much" she says

You frown but as you're about to defend her she starts talking

"Hey, give me some credit here, as the maid of honor i need to know" how can she keep acting this good? You would have lost it by now. If you didn't know her you'd think she is unfazed but you can notice how she's just as angry as you are

"So desperate you already have a maid of honor?"

You let the friendly expression fall completely as you look at her with an annoyed glare

"What is she supposed to be doing here?" You try to be as respectful to the queen as you can

"Well... she's my daughter, but you already knew that right, she's also sans's girlfriend" she answers

Motherfucker has a girlfriend already?!

This is getting worse by the minute

"She won't be moving in as well is she?" You ask, not hiding your true feelings anymore, if she's gonna be a bitch then even ACTING friendly infront of her is pathetic

"She is" Papyrus answers

Hell no, she's not moving in your house!

Also, yes you've convinced dad to set your house as the shared one, there's enough room, you don't have to move to somewhere new and it's decorated how you want it

"That would be a hard pass from me" you say, leaning back

"1 hour shorter" dad says, 1 hour shorter shifts?! Is he serious right now?!

You sit up straight quickly

"That can be arranged" you say, nodding at the queen

Everyone looks confused aside from rachel who nudges you with a smirk

"I'll be staying too" Papyrus says, pointing at himself lazily

You genuinely don't have a problem with that

"No objections here" you say, showing a thumbs up

"So the wedding will take place in a month, this small meeting was scheduled to create some kind of familiarity, so we would like to know what you all think"

"I like her" Papyrus says

"Yeah, not a chance" Nathalie says

"NEUTRAL" sans is next in line

Dad and queen toriel look at you

"Papyrus genuinely seems like a fun person so no problems there"

"Aw, thanks sweetheart"

"Nathalie, i have no idea what your problem is, but i guess i can be civil"

She scoffs, crossing her hands

"Sans... well, i feel like even though it's him im supposed to get to know right now i really have no understanding of him, so he's ok i guess?" Being honest is key right now

Dad nods

"So let's fix this problems before proceedings any further" he says

"Of course, nathalie dear, first you start" the queen continues

"What? You expect me to be ok with some random girl marrying my boyfriend?!" She says, hugging his arm which makes him smile at her

Ew

You look at rachel with a grimace seeing her do the same

"This is not a real marriage dear, remember?"

"Just look at how excited she seems, ugh. Listen girly, no matter how much you try, you are NOT taking my man" she says, pointing at you accusingly

"Yeah, you can keep him, all yours" you say, raising both your hands in a surrender motion

Seriously though, this man is a SKELETON. What exactly are you supposed to steal?

"Ok, then that's it, so the next problem, captain, please introduce yourself a little more detailed"

Sans sighs before starting to talk "SANS, 27 IN HUMAN AGE AND..." he seems to be struggling to find something to say

You look at rachel with a raised eyebrow seeing her looking at you with an unimpressed look

"Just stop" you say, massaging your nasal ridge, trying not to laugh "is it seriously that hard?" You ask, a few chuckles leaving your lips before you can stop them "just say random things about yourself, like: I'm y/n, 22, i LOVE chocolate, this is my best friend rachel, i like (hobby) and (hobby). Was it that hard?" You ask with a raised eyebrow

"Sorry, my bro isn't that good with social cues or being social as a whole"

"Uh huh, I see. Also, bro as in a close friend or...?" You ask

"Brother, he's my brother"

"How different two siblings can be" you comment

"Like you and your sister" rachel whispers in your ear which you nod at that

Yeah, you're not like that gold digging bitch at all

"How about you try again?" Queen toriel says, looking at sans. That's not a suggestion is it? It's an order

"SANS, 27 IN HUMAN AGE, I LIKE TACOS I GUESS?, AND I USUALLY TRAIN ON MY OFF DAYS, LIKE JOGGING OR WORKING OUT" he says

Bro doesn't take a rest

"You TRAIN on your off days?" You ask with a raised eyebrow

"Some people should really look up to that" you hear dad say

"First off, who's side are you on? And second, of course I'm going to rest and have fun on my off days, what do you expect? My job is hard man"

"If it was to me I'd rest on work days too" Papyrus says

"Exactly" rachel says

It seems that even though you're supposed to get to know sans, you're getting to know his brother and honestly you feel like no matter how bad sans and his little girlfriend are going to be, he's going to make up for it

"Like, dinner breaks are so short" you join in

"I know right? They have to make them longer and give us shorter shifts" rachel says

"Couldn't agree more" Papyrus nods

"I see everyone's getting along, this is going to turn out just fine" the queen says, clapping her hands together. Now THIS is how she will fix everything for her people

Chapter 5

"So... how have you been?" You ask, mixing your smoothie with the straw before drinking a little bit of it

"GOOD" sans answers, drinking his coffee

"..."

"..."

"Can you say some shit?! This is awkward enough, just say something!"

"WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO SAY?!"

"i don't know! What do you normally say on dates?!"

"YOU'RE NOT MY DATE"

"Shut the fu-" you take a deep breath "listen, real or not this is a date, so act like it" you say instead through gritted teeth

To get to know eachother more, the queen has sent you two on a date, also to make people see you two are together so that they will believe the whole marriage thing, but sans is NOT doing a good job

He just scoffs and looks aside

"At least keep a cheerful face! People will see" you say, with a deep sigh.

He's really too much

"How are you gonna pull through the wedding?" You say, chuckling a bit as you raise an eyebrow. You just know he's gonna have a bad time that day

"I'LL WORRY ABOUT THAT"

"Ugh, you're hopeless" you shake your head before just shifting your whole attention to your smoothie instead, nothing's gonna come out of sans

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

"So? What are we thinking?" You say, walking out of the dressing room

"That's it!" Rachel says excitedly, walking towards you with open arms

"This dress looks amazing on you" the shopkeeper says

Choosing a wedding dress sounded hard, but looking at this dress now, you know this is IT.

The money's coming out of someone else's pocket too (not sans's, you think the monsters are paying it though, but who cares)

Heheh 

"this is your final choice then?"

"Yes"

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

"I think (favorite color) would look amazing"

"Excellent choice, you have an extraordinary taste"

Ok, now the weddings theme is also over with

You've chosen the venue and now have the theme picked, they'll be getting it ready for the special day

With your dress, photographer, foods and similar things, guests, invitations and now theme ready, you just know the wedding is going to be amazing. Yeah, the groom is sans which is a bummer but that will not stop you from having fun on your wedding night, who knows? Maybe this will be the first and last one

Now all you need is rings and the wedding party, you have your maid of honor obviously (rachel will kill you if it's not her), you won't be inviting your family, you don't need more drama.

The rings, THAT, sadly you have to go with sans but in the other cases he had no problems with you planning the wedding.

But still the matter of wedding party remains, the flower kid will not be your choice, they took THAT at least. But you don't care, you don't know any kids eitherway, you've heard that it'll be chara, the monsters ambassador that has been adopted by the king and queen themselves, sans's bestman and groomsmen will be chosen by himself (obviously) so it just remains your bridesmaids. But WHO should it be?

You have no idea, there's noone you really want there. Maybe you'll talk about that with dad, he can pick some girls from the special force

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

"Wedding party?"

"Yes, i have only one person and that's rachel, I'll need three more"

"Why three in particular?"

"Cause sans is going to have four groomsmen, so i need four bridesmaids"

He sighs "I'll see what i can do"

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

"Everyone, this is the bride to be" dad says, introducing you to your soon to be bridesmaids

"Y/n, these are the girls, they've been chosen carefully so no need to worry, I'll leave you be, so that you can get to know eachother" he leaves after that, leaving you alone with three girls, rachel with you of course

"Hello captain! I've been really excited to meet you" a girl with red hair and gorgeous blue eyes says, extending a hand excitedly "my names olivia, olivia voxel, 23 of age"

You take her hand shaking it with a nod as you introduce yourself, rachel doing the same

Next up is a girl with brown hair and lovely brown eyes 

"hello, my name is Charlotte hansley, I'm 24" again you two shake hands

The last girl is black haired with green eyes

"Hey, my names eleanor solace, 24" again, shaking hands.

After that you all sit down to talk and get to know eachother

"It's amazing meeting you captain" olivia says

"Just call me y/n, no need for that" you say, which her eyes widen at before she nods

"I didn't know you were engaged" eleanor comments, making everyone agree as they look at you with a questioning look

You've asked before, you're allowed to tell them the truth, actually you have to, if you want everything to go well

"Mr.hatchett hasn't told yall?" He was supposed to

"Tell us what?" Olivia asks with a confused expression

"That this is an arranged marriage"

"Arranged?!" All three ask at the same time

"First, yes, second you're not allowed to tell anyone and third, this is just to make a better relationship between humans and monsters and sadly, i was the one chosen"

"I mean, the captain of the royal guard is quite handsome" Charlotte says which makes everyone look at her with a raised eyebrow which makes her blush slightly "just saying" she raises her hand in a surrender motion

"Anyways, i hope we can get this over without a hitch, cause i for one am kinda excited"

"I thought this was arranged?" Eleanor asks

"It is, but still wouldn't you be excited for your wedding? Haven't you ever dreamed about it? Plus, she never wanted to get married so this may be her only wedding day" rachel answers

 "I'm convinced, so what will we need to do?" Eleanor says, nodding before looking at you 

"we gotta go dress shopping for the bridesmaids, my dress is already purchased, the bouquet is still not chosen, nor are shoes, the wedding theme is though, it will be (favorite color)"

"Sounds amazing"

"I'm so in"

"Let's do this"

You and rachel look at eachother before nodding and looking back

Dad definitely picked some good bridesmaids

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

In the end, the whole wedding was ready in about three short weeks. You went and got rings with sans (he brought his annoying girlfriend too, ugh, you took rachel as the others were a little busy at work), got the planning ready, talked with a beautysalon that charlotte recommended about your hair and makeup and booked an appointment, booked a date for the wedding, talked more with the girls about to be your bridesmaids, which let's be honest are all fun people, you've made new friends it seems, you also planned a Bachelorette party for you and your bridesmaids.

All in all this whole wedding thing isn't as bad as you thought it'd be, it's actually fun planning it, knowing that it's an arranged marriage and there's no need for stress and it's just going to be fun, after that, sans doesn't want anything to do with you so you're good

Now, you just have to wait for your party.

Chapter 6

Finally, the day of the wedding is here, the salon has sent a cosmetologist and she is already done.

The guests are here, waiting for the wedding to begin, you're with your bridesmaids, talking and joking around when the queen and dad come inside the room you are in

"Oh, you look absolutely lovely dear" the queen says with a smile as she approaches you, she is wearing a beautiful purple dress that has the sign of the royal family on its chest with her crown on her head

Dad is in a suit, not much more to say about it honestly

"Thank you, your majesty" you say, nodding with a small bow

The bridal party bows as well, greeting the queen

"You do look nice" dad says with a small smile, walking over and fixing your tiara and veil slightly as you smile up at him

"Thanks d- general"

"I think for today you can be a little... less formal" he says, stepping back

You nod at him happily, he's the one that will walk you down the aisle afterall so calling him dad won't be out of character

"General! Please can you help with this!" Someone says which makes dad nod at you before looking at the queen 

"I'll be back" he says before leaving

"So, dear, now that it's already over, the reason the general first wasn't agreeing with this marriage... is it because you're his daughter?" The queen asks

"I don't think so" it was most likely related to that too, but the main reason was most likely something else

She's interrupted before she can push for answers

"Is everyone ready?! The ceremony is starting!" The dude who works at the venue says, which makes the bridal party squeak and the queen look slightly disappointed about not receiving her answer

"It appears that it's time to go" she says, looking at the dude running around trying to get everything into proper place "I'll see you later little one" she nods before walking away

"Ok, is everyone ready?" You ask excitedly

"Of course" "yes" are the answers you get

All the guests sit down as the wedding finally starts.

Since your mother isn't here rachel is the one who goes first, as the mother of the groom which was revealed to not be in the picture, the queen walks down, after that, it's sans's turn as he walks down and stands at the aisle, then his groomsmen and your bridesmaids pairs walk down which the pairs consist of THE KINGS(?!) With poor Charlotte (who looks extremely nervous), a robot dude which you recognize as nabstaton, undergrounds celebrity with eleanor and for some reason a dino LADY with olivia before the flower kid (which you were right, it was chara) goes down, throwing (f/c) flowers as they walk. the ring bearer being the last which is no other than Papyrus, the best man himself walks down and it's officially the brides turn, aka you

Everyone looks at the door as it opens, the music changing to a more beautiful and calming one as the doors reveal you, arms linked with dad. looking around -the veil covers your face but you can still see through it- you see all the guests and everyones reactions, sans is holding the best smile he can muster up, the whole wedding party is, some of the the guests whisper amongst themselves, which you hear them complimenting you or the other wedding party members, some even talking about how dad looks... ugh

Your eyes land on nathalie looking extremely annoyed, heh, even better

You start walking down the aisle, your bouquet in hand as you feel everyone's eyes on you. It feels special, arranged or not.

As you reach the aisle, dad lets go and sans extends a hand with his fake smile which looks too real for a fake, if you didn't know better, you'd think he's actually happy, you'd definitely buy the act.

You take his hand, stepping on the platform and standing infront of him after handing your bouquet to rachel.

The officiant walks closer to you two, starting the opening speech

"Hello everyone! Thank you for attending! we are gathered here to celebrate the pure love between two lovely people. Y/n hatchett and sans serif. They are happy that you are here today to witness this sweet union and support the lovebirds with your presence"

You stop yourself from laughing as he mentions the 'pure love' and other things, yeah, you two are so in love, you may die.

Then, he moves on to the whole 'reflection' part

"Falling in love is..." Yeah yeah, blah blah blah, you tune out on that part sadly, looking around instead, noone can see you're not listening thanks to your veil, all these eyes on you makes this feel so special, like you're the center of the world right now and damn it feels nice

"I, sans serif, take you, y/n hatchett, to be my lawful wife" sans says, taking your hands in his, taking your gloves off of your hand before handing them to papyrus who is holding the pillow which carries the rings

oh, it's already time for the vows?

 "I vow to always be the person you can rely on, a shoulder to cry on and a friend to laugh with" he takes your left hand "for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, i vow to never leave your side. Let our love last for as long as i breathe" he says, taking the former ring off of your finger and putting the new one on it

"Our love huh?" You whisper, laughing quietly which makes sans's hand twitch and papyrus chuckle as he heard it too

You take sans's hand, he's wearing gloves too, why? Whatever, you start taking them off, revealing his monstrous fucking CLAWS?! You thought it was just the glove itself, he has CLAWS?! ok ok, go according to the plan

"I, y/n hatchett, take sans serif as my lawful husband, i vow to be there for you whenever you need me, to never use you or take advantage of your trust" you say handing his gloves to his brother before taking his ring and taking his left hand

"For better, for worse, for richer, for poorer in sickness and in health i vow to be your loving and faithful wife till the day i shall live" you say putting the ring on his ring finger, trying your best to avoid the claws

"You may now kiss the bride"

Ok

No

Now this is the part you were dreading, looking at rachel, she seems to sense your stare as she nods at you.

Ok, it's just a small kiss, you can do this

Sans looks a bit twitchy too, his movements look a bit too dry and almost robotic as he brings your veil up

Everyone 'aw's most likely thinking that he's nervous or something

"Ok, love birds, don't forget people are watching" papyrus says with a wink which makes your nerves slightly calm down

Ok, here we go, 

teeth....

You close your eyes, as he holds your waist and leans forward, he's been ordered to make it look real so he is

As he finally reaches you you feel... lips? What the hell. You feel something like lips leave a small peck on yours when people start cheering and you hear the officiant say

"I now pronounce you, husband and wife"

Sans leans back, still holding your waist as he looks at the crowd with an award winning smile

After a little you do the same, waving at people with a smile

Rachel hands you the bouquet and you take it, sans finally letting go of your waist as you see girls gathering in a line excitedly, waiting to see if they are the chosen one to be the next bride, You throw the bouquet and it ends up in the hands of a bunny monster as she squeaks happily and then jumps up and down, showing the bouquet to her friends

Now it's time for the reception party, which makes everyone move to another room which is specified for this party, music playing as tables are placed around the room, one pair of chairs and a table at the very front of the room for you and sans. You all let the guests go in first, so that you have time to talk with everyone

"That was amazing, both of you" the queen says, walking towards you when there's no guests left

Sans bows at the queen politely

"Amazing performance sis" papyrus says, winking at you

Damn, he really IS your brother-in-law now

The bridal party walks towards you

"Girl, that was a spots on performance, if i didn't know any better I'd think you were serious" rachel says, punching your arm jokingly

"I must become an actress" you say dramatically

"You were genuinely amazing!" Olivia joins in

"That was kinda awkward though" you whisper to your little group

"Yeah, i can see why" eleanor nods

"Let's go before the guests say anything" dad says, looking at the doors that show the people in the reception party's room

You nod as everyone starts walking towards the room, before you're stopped by a small child

"Hello! My name's chara! It's amazing to meet you" the small child says, holding a hand up, your friends look at you questioningly to sew if they should wait or no

You take the childs hand with a smile before nodding to your friends to just go so they do

"Hello there, I'm y/n, you expect me to not know you? The ambassador? Seriously? But it's nice to meet you chara"

The child squeaks happily hearing how you know them

"Chara, don't oppress the lady" a voice calls out

"Oh no it's nothing" your smile falls slightly upon seeing who the voice belongs to, the kings.

"Oh, hello your majesty it's an honor to meet you" you say, bowing to him

"Please, no need for courtesies. Just call me asgore" he says, waving a hand

"Are you sure? I mean..."

"I prefer to not be known as 'the king'" he explains "so, if you call me asgore, it's ten times more respectful than you calling me with formal names"

"I understand... asgore" you say, the name feeling weird without any courtesies

"Thank you dear" he says with a smile "you look absolutely beautiful" he adds

"Thank you" you nod, a smile pulling at your lips

"Dad! Everyone's going!" Chara says, pointing at everyone who are waiting for you at the door

Dad, huh? Reminds you of yourself and mr.hatchett

"Let's go then" you tell the child with a happy smile as you start walking with the two towards everyone else

"Ok, make sure it's believable" the queen whispers to you and sans so you nod, linking your arm with his and you all walk in. Everyone cheering as they see the newly wed couple walk in the reception which is FLOODED with different reporters/journalists and photographers who work for different news organizations

They weren't allowed in during the wedding to keep the peace but one journalist and photographer from each organization were allowed to attend the after party. The queen and dad wanted to make sure the news are spread EVERYWHERE, and the different organizations ate the opportunity UP. Afterall this is the first marriage between a monster and human not to mention the two are from the royal guard and special force, and both are captains.

You hear clicks going off as the photographers take pictures and the journalists try to get informations as some live report everything

"Sir! sir!"

"Ma'am" microphones are basically shoved in your face as you enter

The queen looks at a few guards who immediately come to push them away but you stop them before they take the reporters all away which makes the queen and even dad to look at you, confused

"If everyone keeps their calm, we will have a bit of time for interviews!" You tell the reporters happily (acting happy at least) which makes them all have big smiles on their face

"But as i said you will all need to keep calm and respect our personal space. Also please ask questions in order" You instruct which works as they all stand in order and stop talking on eachother

"Can we please have a moment?" A live reporter says, this specific one works for an extremely well known and loved organization

"Of course, are you ok with that dear?" You ask sans and he for a second seems lost before nodding with a smile

"How did you two meet?" They say before putting the microphone infront of you

"Can i answer dear? Or do you want to do it?" You ask sans

"GO AHEAD, LOVE"

You stop yourself from laughing again, turning back to the reporter

"At work, both working for our respective agencies and everything, we actually met in the s.m.f, in the generals room, oh i remember vividly" of course you do, that was less than a month ago

You hug sans's arm tightly as the reporter continues

"What made you two start dating? How did everything happen?"

"The queen introduced us! And for that, I'm forever thankful" thankful cause you got a fat RAISE

Dad which is standing near the cameraman looks absolutely proud as he nods at you

"Are you two SOULMATES?"

Ok, there's noway you can answer that without lying so you just start acting shy and hugging sans tighter, the reporters seem to take that as an answer and continue with other questions

The reporters keep going, journalists taking notes and asking questions as well. You answer them as best as you can which seems to impress the queen if her expression is anything to go off of

After the whole interview and everything is over, you two walk to the chairs at the front of the room

"I didn't think you'd be able to handle the reporters so well" sans mumbles as you two walk

"All you have to do is tell the truth but from a different point of view, we did meet in the generals room, just not as romantically as i made it sound. Just make it a bit dramatic and the reporters will be off your ass" you say with a smirk. You two sit down as you reach the chairs, you can still hear cameras going off, ok you still need to act all lovey dovey

"Ok, sans hold a conversation, that's what people always do from what I've seen"

"What am i supposed to say? And why?" He asks, sounding annoyed but holding the same cheerful expression

"Cause there are people watching and just say some random things" you shrug "like what's next?"

"Next?" He asks, confused as to what you mean

"Yep, the next thing going down is the 'first dance' then the dance with parents then just celebrating and finally, the day is over" you explain the plan of the wedding night

"I've heard... what is this 'first dance' supposed to be eitherway? Why does it matter?" He's genuinely asking that right now? Seriously? He doesn't know?!

"The first dance is basically our first dance as a married couple, you haven't seen the videos?"

"No? What videos" bro is dense

"Have you noticed how there's a cameraman following us ever since everything began and even before that? Also great job at keeping the conversation flowing"

"I'm genuinely asking... but yeah, I've seen it" 

"That dude is recording everything, he's going to edit it and give the result to us after. Then years later we can still watch them, well normal couples actually do that, to be able to remember their special day but we will also get one. It will record everything, the dance included. Some people post them on the internet, you seriously have not seen one?"

"No" he shakes his head

"You're really something you know?" You say, shaking your head jokingly

"What is that supposed to mean?" He says, frowning slightly

"I can't relate to you at all sans, I've never met anyone like you. You don't seem to go on your phone all that much, you don't seem like any fun, you can't hold conversations" you count before looking at him with a questioning look. Is it possible that... "sans?"

"Yes?" He asks, unsure

"How many friends did you say you have?"

"Haven't count" he says simply

"Long time friends" you specify, narrowing the selection choices

"why should i-" you cut him off

"No no, please work on this with me"

"Like... 2" he says

"How old are you again?"

"143" he answers, still unsure of where this is going

Your face turns blank for a few seconds, his coldness isn't intended it's because of his extremely bad social skills!

"What?" He asks, looking around as your face remains blank

"So that's why you can't hold a conversation" you admit your line of thought

"What?!"

"You can't hold a conversation for the death of you sans, I've seen it first hand, maybe try to have more social interactions" you say nudging him with your elbow as you laugh

He looks at you annoyed as he mumbles something under his breath

You keep talking until the dj declares it's time for the first dance

You and sans stand up walking to the dance floor as everyone empty's the area and a calming song starts playing, you and sans start with the dance and except from everyones eyes on you there isn't anything interesting about it, you have trained this dance together before to make sure you're in sync and that you don't fuck up

After the dance the food is finally served, YES

Finally some good fucking food

Everyone gets to eating their food and after that, it's a full on disco, the song booming in the background as you and the bridal party dance your asses off, having as much fun as possible some of the guests join you too and because you're in the middle dancing the queen forces sans to join, to make sure noone gets suspicious

Overall the party goes on amazingly, you have a shit ton of fun, you dance your ass off and the night goes on without a hitch after that you and sans get in a car and drive away, to the house you'll be living in together, plus papyrus and nathalie of course

"Damn that was fun"

"IT'S NOT FUN WHEN YOU'RE FORCED TO DANCE ON THE DANCE FLOOR WITH A BUNCH OF MOST LIKELY DRUNKS" sans says with a frown, not taking his eyes off of the road "COULDN'T YOU SIT DOWN FOR AN HOUR AT LEAST?!"

"what? And miss the night of my life? Yeah no" you say stretching your arms

The rest of the ride is quite the same, sans mumbling/grumbling and you answering nonchalantly, not really bothered, a part of the ride is also silent

After reaching home you go straight to your room, change your clothes, remove the makeup before taking a short bath and plopping down on your bed and finally falling asleep

You're so tired that you fall asleep almost immediately

Today was fun

Most fun you've had in a while

Chapter 7

Hm…

You slowly open your eyes, sitting up on the bed

You stretch and yawn before getting up and going out of your room. Damn you're thirsty

You walk down the stairs and go to the kitchen, bringing a glass down from the cabinet and putting it on the counter, you move on to the fridge and bring the bottle of water out and start pouring some in the glass

“Hey there” papyrus's voice rings out as he enters the kitchen

You stare at him for a few seconds “oh hey” you smile at him before looking back down at the cup

You put the bottle aside on the counter and-

Wait a second

You yelp, turning around quickly and looking at papyrus who looks at you confused 

“What the hell are you doing in my house?!”

He looks slightly taken aback “we all moved in here, remember?” He raises a bonebrow

Oh… yeah… you forgot about that

“Ooh. Right, sorry” you yawn again, picking your cup of water up “im still a little sleepy”

“You know, i thought newly married women wear lingerie to bed not… that” he smirks, pointing at your pjs

“Don't count me as a married woman, I'm not really one” you drink the water before putting the glass in the sink

“You have a ring on” he points at your left hand. You bring it up and inspect it

“Yeah… it still feels kind of weird” you play with the ring a little as you speak, twisting and turning it between your index finger and thumb

“My bro isn't that bad, don't worry about it” he shrugs, opening the fridge 

“What's for breakfast? I'm starving”

“With the hour, we should be having lunch” you point out “but i can make us something if you want. Pancakes?”

“Absolutely”

You and papyrus talk as you make pancakes, he's really fun to be around, you have to admit that. Maybe this whole ordeal won't be as bad as you thought

You hear the main door open and close.

 After a little, sans and nathalie make an arrival with… shopping bags?

“Today was so fun, thank you babe!” Nathalie says

“OF COURSE”

‘Babe’ ew

You cringe as you cook, which piques papyrus's curiosity 

“What? What's with the look?”

“The pet name, i mean ‘babe’ is a bit over used don't you think? And basic too”

He shrugs

“We singles don't understand the appeal i guess” he chuckles

“I guess you're right”

“YOU TWO ARE JUST EATING BREAKFAST? IT'S ALMOST 1 PM!” sans enters the kitchen

“Hey, who did all the wedding plannings? I was tired, but damn that was fun” you say the last part with a smile

“I must agree, it was fun” papyrus nods

“It wasn't, like at all” nathalie says, bringing the water out of the fridge

Yeah, because someone stole your dear boyfriend

You look at her with a raised eyebrow, trying not to laugh

Papyrus looks like he's laughing inside as well

“Anyways, what were you two doing?” you ask just to change the subject and keep the conversation flowing

“What? Now you wanna question him 24/7? Listen, you may be legally married, but you're noone, don't act like a wife”

“Shut the fuck up, now who wants your boyfriend, no offense but he's just BONES, again, no offense” you say, glancing between sans and papyrus

“Oh, we're more than that don't worry about it” papyrus winks “wanna see?”

“Depends on” you turns the stove off as the pancakes are now all ready “what are you gonna show, like no flashing”

He laughs “but that's the whole fun” he winks jokingly

“Yeah, i doubt that” you put the pancakes on the dinner table “You two want any? There's more than enough”

“No, we don't wanna be poisoned, plus, i told you to stop acting like a wife” nathalie pulls sans out of the kitchen

You just look at her with a poker face as she walks out of view, taking the syrup you sit at the table as well

“My bro isn't bad, his girlfriend is” papyrus finishes his sentence from earlier

“I can see that, what's her problem?”

“Gold digging” he says with dismay apparent on his face

Makes sense

“She keeps saying how you're probably a gold digger that volunteered to marry him to get his money”

“Wait wait wait, volunteered?” You didn't sign up for this shit

“Yeah? Didn't you?” He looks confused as well

“No, the queen basically forced me to” 

“Seriously?”

“Yeah, there were girls who would volunteer I'm sure, but i wasn't one of them, she said that she wanted the captain to be with him so she chose me”

“Wait, you're the captain?” what the…

“What exactly has the queen told yall?”

“That a volunteer has been found that works for the s.m.f but that's about it”

“Seriously?” She hasn't tell them shit

 you just shake your head 

“but you know, actually, the reason i married Him WAS money but not his” he looks confused “i got a quite big pay raise with shorter shifts, and listen, shorter shifts in my job is a BIG deal”

“So… they convinced you in this marriage?”

“Yeah, the queen wasn't letting me go and kept insisting it should be me, in the end my boss bribed me with pay raise, more off days and shorter shifts”

“Damn, he gave you a lot… then i assume the queen was REALLY dead set huh?”

“Yeah she was”

“That's a whole different story from what she made us believe, but honestly it's the queen, she's always like that”

You and papyrus keep talking until the end of breakfast. After that yall went your separate ways, even though you had today off, you decide to go to work since you have a lot to do

You sit in your office and work on your computer, there has been this trouble maker you need to arrest but whenever you find his hiding spot he's already gone

On another note, you have finally found one of the professors.

Years ago, there has been an laboratory full of professors that used to experiment on children which has left a lot of literal psychopaths that you have to deal with, they were going to get the death penalty eitherway so you were ordered for assassination.

You have finally find him, he goes by a different name now, fake id and everything, you should get him as soon as possible…

He goes by the name of Sebastian jones

He has chosen a really common lastname that's for sure, but of course it makes him blend in better

He as his real id has been intro8duced dead, it seems he has stole someone else's identity…

You will get him soon

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

Sans walks in the hallways of the new castle, the queen has called him over because of a reason he doesn't know

He makes his way to the throne room and bows to the queen

“Hello captain, there has been a request for a bodyguard and i have chosen you for the place, the target goes by the name of Sebastian jones”

“Of course your majesty”

“Also, how is everything going? Any problems”

“No your majesty, everything is fine”

She nods giving him the address “be there on monday, 11th of September” 

He has more to do now it seems

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

“Mr.hatchett if you let me i will go there and eliminate the target before anyone realizes”

“alright. but not today, when is the first free time on his schedule?”

“11th of September”

“Then you know what to do”

“Of course sir”

There's nothing else to day so you leave the office

You WILL do you job right and eliminate him

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

Sans WILL do his job right and protect him

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

You spend your night talking and joking around with papyrus, now that's a good roommate

This wasn't too bad, sans doesn't really interact with you all that much, nathalie does annoy you but it doesn't matter

Afterall, this whole marriage might just work out

Chapter 8

Everything falls into a routine from then on, mornings you spend with papyrus or alone (depends on when you wake up), go to work, come back.

Sans doesn't do much, he's pretty harmless almost like he's not even there

Today is the 11th

You should really get this over with as soon as possible

you wear your special uniform which has a hood and mask to make sure noone realizes you're there from the special force. Noon can know people in this organization kill, it's under the government afterall.

fixing your glove you get started on your way to the professors house in your car, it's quite a long drive but you eventually make it there

You break in silently, pulling your mask up and your hood down. You have checked everything, his schedule, the map of his house, the surrounding area, there's no way you can't do this, it's like a piece of cake

You make your way to his office and kick the door open, just for a little bit of fear to find it's way to his heart, it helps.

But your jaw almost drops when you see sans in there

What the hell is he doing here?!

He gets on guard immediately, summoning bones all around the room

Shit

He shoots them at you and you use your own magic to stop them, the two magics collide together, creating a sickening sound.

You thought this was going to be easy but damn his magic is strong, he keeps pushing them and they start to BREAK THROUGH YOUR MAGIC!

You jump out of the way in the last moment but you do get a cut in your arm

Now he's done it! You're going to kill him!

You glare at him summoning a scythe in your hand as you get on guard, making sure it looks different from your normal scythe, he DOES THE SAME?! 

What is this?!

You grit your teeth as you starts attacking him and he keeps deflecting them with his own weapon

Damn him! You should have gotten this done 10 minutes ago!

You see from your peripheral vision the damn professor running away and that sadly distracts you too much cause sans successfully pins you against a wall, taking your scythe from your hands

…

Sorry, sans… sorry

You kick him in the middle of his legs which makes him let go and hiss in pain

Damn that actually worked

You go to follow after the professor when the earpiece in your ear comes to life

“retreat” mr.hatchett orders

Fuck

You do as told, jumping through the open window (you're thankfully on the first floor) and running to your car, of course not before getting your blood off of the room and sans’s magic weapon, incase they try to find your dna

You sit in quickly and drive away, this particular car has no numberplates, legally of course, to make sure you can do your missions correctly and without witnesses knowing who you are and who you work for

After you're far enough you pull your mask down

“Fuck!”

What the hell was he doing there?! He wasn't supposed to be there!

“Don't worry, you'll get him next time" michael says, you can hear a slight smile in his voice

“What the hell was he doing there?!” You shout

“I hacked sebastian jones phone and he has asked for a bodyguard from the queen. Didn't think it would be your husband from all people”

“He's not my husband”

“He technically Is”

“Whatever, just shut up” you pull your hood down, punching the steering wheel

Agh! You have NEVER left a job unfinished like this! This is humiliating! Ugh!

Fuck!

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

You sit at home, your arm bandaged up under your sleeve as you sit there looking mad

“what's with the long face?” Papyrus enters the livingroom

“Bad day at work” you grumble, playing with your phone

“It was that bad?”

“Yes! This fucker fucked everything up!” You say angrily

“Woah there, not like it was me” he smirks, sitting beside you and putting one of his legs on the other (crossing his legs)

“Sorry, just… it was the first time something like that happened” you couldn't do anything… he's a skeleton so you couldn't use your special attack which is blood manipulation which he doesn't have!

You must get stronger! You can't believe YOU, the literal captain of the special force were beaten so easily! This is humiliating! And by who?! The captain of the opponent agency

Ugh

The entrance door opens and sans comes in, not looking any happier than you

“Ok, now why do YOU look like you got kicked in the balls?” Papyrus asks with a raised brow

“IRONIC YOU WOULD SAY THAT, CAUSE I ACTUALLY DID” sans grumbles, plopping down on an armchair

“Seriously? Why?”

“BODYGUARD DUTY, THE TARGET ACTUALLY GOT ATTACKED, I GOT THEM CORNERED AND THE ASSAILANT KICKED ME” he says, annoyed

Oops

“So you both had bad days huh? See, you two are meant to be” 

you and sans both look at him with annoyance which makes him chuckle and bring his hands up in surrender

“Ok, tigers”

uuggghh, The person who beat you is right infront of you and you can't do shit, this sucks

You need to train more… you're so much weaker than you thought…

How did he beat you?!

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

“That was disappointing to say the least” mr.hatchett scolds you as you keep your head down “You're the captain y/n, this is beneath you”

“I'm sorry… i… i don't even know how that happened…”

“You shouldn't rely on your special attack all the time” he says sternly “but i should have gave you permission to eliminate the target by using magic” he massages his eyes “now he'll get more defensive and harder to find”

“I apologize… I'll do better”

“I'll call the queen, maybe ask for a personal trainer”

“What? No!” You don't want her to think you're weak!

“Monsters are better at magic and that's a fact, you weren't a match for their captain even in the sense of magic, i don't expect you to be better than him in physical strength, cause he's a monster male and you're a human female, but i expect you to try and get equal if not better magic wise”

“But calling the queen may cause suspicion” you try to reason

“Hm… then how do you plan on getting stronger?”

That shuts you up, normal training is obviously not enough

“But still… isn't it weird to ask them for help”

“You say them like there's something wrong with them” now he's accusing you of being a monster hater?!

“No, i- ugh” you groan in frustration “first of all, i know you're teasing me, second of all i mean, i don't really like the queen all that much.. she's…” secretive, mysterious and doesn't stop when she hears no, i mean being a queen that kinda makes sense but still

“I understand, you're not happy that she forced you in this marriage” he says, leaning back in his chair “but it won't be suspicious, here in the special force our agents are better strategists, we can have a collaboration, it won't sound suspicious at all”

“I guess that is better”

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

Michael Is currently working on finding that damned professor and the collaboration has started. The monsters teach yall how to use magic better and you teach them on the subject on strategies and the best ways to do different things

To say that monsters are extremely good with their magic would be an understatement, they're all really skillful which makes sense, they are MADE out of magic.

You have to admit, in a fight that is not for killing you aren't THAT good, you can save your own ass but beating someone powerful without using your special attack? Not really

The training now consists of yall trying to hold up as much weight as you can with your magics which is easier said than done

They are putting a LOT of weight on your magics saying it's just the beginning.

Beginning!? These motherfuckers have to be joking cause you're already tired

“You good?” Papyrus is here for some reason too

“Yeah” your voice sounds like you're under pressure, your face says the same

“You sure?”

“Uh huh”

“You don't look good though” he brings one hand up and holds up all the weight with ONE HAND!

“How the-” you just stare

“Monsters know how to use magic since they are children. Not to mention the conditions of the UNDERGROUND”

“Conditions?”

“It was kill or be killed, if you were weak you were just an easy target, monsters train their kids from a young age, at least did” 

“that… sorry to hear that”

“Don't be, it's all in the past”

“PAPYRUS! DON'T HELP THE HU- DON'T HELP HER!” Sans sounds mad

“Sorry bro” he lets go of the weights

Shit! if they fall on the ground you're out! You're the captain, you can't be out!

You quickly extend your hand and make your magic appear again and catch the wights just in time

“You ass!” You say angrily. Papyrus just chuckles as he walks away

At first you were afraid maybe sans will recognize the color of your magic but thankfully there are others here that have red magic too, and probably a lot out there

DETERMINATION is red as well after all

plus, you're pretty sure he will never think for a second it was you, you work for the -well thought of- special force!

You can't let him find out

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

you plop down face first on the couch, feeling tired because of all the training

“Good job” papyrus chuckles, sitting on an armchair

You groan before showing a thumbs up

“YOU'RE TOO LAZY, THAT WASN'T ANYTHING” sans crosses his arms

You bring your face up, sending an annoyed look his way before burying your face in the cushion again

He huffs, sitting down, a sigh of contentment leaving him

He must be tired himself

“Sans!” Nathalie bursts through the door “Let's go on a date”

“DARLING I'M REALLY TIRED TODAY” He says with a sigh

“Even for me?” Sans is definitely gonna say no

You save his ass, kinda

“How about you just take his card and go get food for the both of you and have a date/movie night?” She's not gonna like that at all, you just know it. She wants more expensive dates. While living with them you've learned just how right papyrus was and how much of a gold digger nathalie is

She frowns at you

“That's a good idea” papyrus agrees with a nod

“I…” nathalie looks between you and others “but if he's tired he'll fall asleep” she tries

Pathetic

“Then you can watch him sleep before putting a kiss on his forehead and then say ‘goodnight, have sweet dreams love’ and then he stirs in his sleep, wrapping his arms around you as you two fall sleep alongside eachother”

“You watch romance alot?” Papyrus asks

“no, i read romance a lot”

“Can see” he chuckles

Nathalie scoffs before walking away and going upstairs

“Just saved your ass” you say with a smirk, turning around and laying on your side instead

Sans frowns slightly as he stares you down but doesn't say anything

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

Today they added weights, god this shits are heavy

After a little they give yall some time to rest, the others look just as tired as you feel

“Humans aren't that good in magic, they're not bad but it's far from perfect” papyrus comments, not sounding mocking but just stating a fact

You nod

“We used to train to human standards and before monsters came it was more than enough, but you are far better than we thought hence why we requested for this whole collaboration” you admit, drinking some water

“You know, we eat magic induced food all the time, that helps”

“Magic induced?” You've seen those in supermarkets “do you think a human can eat those too?”

“Yep, they tried and the humans didn't show any signs of discomfort or anything else”

Hm…

“Maybe I'll buy some” you shrug

“Why not get all of them like that? There are monsters in the house too. We can eat normal human foods but well, we're more used to that”

“Yeah… maybe”

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

You are putting the grocery away when papyrus walks in and looks at the things you've bought

“You did listen” he says, surprised

“Yeah? Why?”

“I thought you… didn't really like mosnters all that much”

“Why would you think that?”

He shrugs

“No, monsters are no different, they're people too so why see a difference between us? I think, you think. I move, you move, i decide, you decide”

Papyrus doesn't say anything and just thinks

“Are those?” He says after awhile

“Monster candy. I didn't know what they are for but it said candy so I thought maybe it's like a snack?”

“It is, it's a candy just with magic” he shrugs taking one, opening the wrapper and throwing it in his mouth

“Do you have a tongue?” Then how does he eat?

He opens his mouth, a glowing purple tongue coming out of his mouth

“What the- how?!”

“Magic”

“So… like… it's a weird question i know, BUT… do you like… have a” your eyes glance down at his pelvis

“Yeah, wanna see?”

“Kinda but not really” you turn back to the groceries, you won't let curiosity get the better of you

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

You keep the training up and see some small improvements as they keep on adding weights. They have also started a new form of training where they will attack your walls of magic with their own magic

You still hang on better than others but you're not satisfied at all

You NEED To beat sans this time, from what you figured out he has bodyguard duty all the time recently, most likely for the same person

You just hope you get ready on time

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

Maybe you can ask papyrus to help? Or maybe sans himself, that way you can learn his attack patterns…

Maybe you should ask mr.hatchett for permission for this or maybe not, you can ask for help after your shifts are over.

But it's gonna take a lot to admit to him that you need help… the fact that he doesn't know about you being the captain kinda helps but still…

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

“Hey sans”

“HELLO MRS.”

“yeah we're at work but it's break time” you look at him with an unamused expression “just say my name”

He doesn't 

“Come on”

He shuts his mouth tighter

“oh my god just say it” you say with a cocked up eyebrow leaning closer

He leans back, shutting his mouth even tighter if that’s even possible

you lean closer until he's basically leaning against the platform behind him, his hand and arm supporting his weight due to the position he's in

You lean as close as you can

“Just say it oh my god!”

“GET AWAY FROM ME MRS.! THIS IS EXTREMELY UNPROFESSIONAL ON YOUR PART!”

“Say my name and i will” what's his problem?! Just say the damn name!

“Damn, in public?” Papyrus laughs

“He won't say my name!”

“I mean he didn't say mine for a while either” he shrugs

“Say my name sans, say it!” You say, glaring down at him

“get away before i slit your throat open y/n” he whispers lowly

“Now was it that hard?” You say, standing straight

“Oh, i forgot what i wanted to say. Can we talk in private?”

Sans looks at you weird

“Not like that, i just want to ask a favor”

Papyrus pushes sans forward

“FINE, BUT DON'T THINK OF ANYTHING”

You roll your eyes

“Let's go in my office” you start walking

“OFFICE?” 

Shit!

“Yeah? Paperwork is a bitch” You try to defuse the situation

Thankfully your rank is not written on your door or on your name tag due to your own request, you're thankful you did that

You two make your way to your office and go in, you go and lean against your desk as sans’s eyelights scan around the room

“Sans, i wanna ask for a favor that i really hope you will agree to”

“DEPENDS ON WHAT IT IS”

“can you…” fuck, there goes your pride “can you help me alone? i want to train more than the others and well… i guess i can't do it alone”

“WHY?”

“you never wanted to be better than others?” You raise an eyebrow

“I GUESS I HAVE… BUT WHAT WOULD THAT HAVE FOR ME”

“i don't know, what would you want?”

“HM… HOW ABOUT A FAVOR IN RETURN? I DO SOMETHING FOR YOU AND YOU DO SOMETHING FOR ME WHEN THE TIME COMES”

“as long as it's a rational request” you nod and then push yourself off the desk and walk towards him “Deal?”

“DEAL”

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

Training with sans goes better than you thought, he's a good teacher you'll give him that

He helps you a lot but he's quite cruel in his teaching, showing no mercy at all

You get injured too but you guess it's ok since your improvements have been more apparent and more severe

He attacks you and you have to defend, he uses weights on you and sometimes combines both which is the hardest part, he also makes you attack dummies and punching bags and everything to see how much harm you can cause

All in all, you're not regretting your decision, at all

he helps you after your shifts when you're at home which nathalie seems to not like and she has shown it a few times and sans either said you'd continue later or convinced her that he will make it up to her later. You hate seeing how he gets used like that you don't know why but it irritates you but you don't say anything since you don't want to get on his bad side when you need his help

Chapter 9

Notes:

Guys, I've gotten chicken pox and IT ITCHES
AND today is my birthday
But here it is, the chapter, right on time👍
Hope yall enjoy😭🫴
Also, as we proceed, please tell me if there's anything i need to add to the tags، thank you all very much❤️

You've been training with sans for three weeks now and you can see a lot of improvements, your body is covered in bandages and you're sore all the time and also you go to sleep way too easily at nights but if that's what it takes, then so be it

“Damn girl, I'm not judging if you like it rough but that's a little too far” rachel says as she sees the bandages especially the one on your cheek

“The hell you going on about, it's because of training”

“What kind of ‘training’ does that?” Eleanor asks with a questioning look

“Sans's trainings”

….

“Wait wait wait no it came out wrong! Rachel! Stop smirking!”

“I thought you didn't like him?”

“Listen, seriously, i asked him to help me with training my magic and he agreed, he's just a little cruel that's it”

“Damn, lucky you” olivias smile widens

“It has It's downsides as you can see” you point at your bandaged cheek “also, i owe him a favor in return, so it's not that fun”

“Oh, What favor?” charlotte leans closer

“Don't know, he said when the time comes I'll do him a favor, i think he doesn't have something in mind either”

“Was it worth it at least?”

“Definitely”

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

“DON'T GET DISTRACTED FROM THE BACK” 

You make a wall behind you quickly, before making another infront of you

“A NEW LESSON, SOME PEOPLE CAN”

Can what?

A spear comes out of the earth infront of you, you yelp leaning away

“YOU WOULD BE DEAD IF THIS WAS REAL” his magic attacks stop

“I know” you grumble as your walls disappear as well

You catch an attack that was coming towards your head with magic

“AT LEAST YOU'VE GOTTEN BETTER IN THIS” he nods

The practice time is over

You stretch

“Tch, you have to cut me?” You say, looking at the cut in your shirt and the blood -pouring out of the gash he made- underneath

“IF YOU DON'T GET HURT, YOU'LL NEVER LEARN”

Never learn huh?

You sigh going back inside the house

“Again?” papyrus looks up from his phone

“Yeah, again” you pick the bandages that were on the counter top

“Sans, you should really be more careful, this is a human”

“IF SHE WANTS TO LEARN, THEN IT MUST BE DONE, IM CAREFUL ENOUGH NOT TO KILL HER”

You guess that's something at least

You yawn, walking upstairs, ducking down your head as an attack flies over

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

“We have found the professors location, do you think you can do it this time?” 

“Yes sir”

“you're allowed to use your special attack if needed” you nod before leaving the room

You'll get the dude this time

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

“YOU'RE MORE QUIET THAN NORMAL” sans comments, attacking you more

You dodge or deflect them

Now that you have to attack tomorrow, you feel kind of guilty… You're gonna do him a favor in return but still…

“Just… work”

“IT'S BEEN BUSY?”

“no, i just have to do something that makes me feel… bad”

Sans never stops his attack

“IF IT'S YOUR JOB, YOU HAVE TO DO IT” he answers simply

Yeah… 

“Yeah you're right…”

You have to do this! You can do it, of course you can

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

ok this is where michael said is the location, looking at the old cottage you kinda question that, but whatever. You just have to-!

You jump out of the way as a purple attack is thrown your way

Sans…

He walks towards you, a glare plastered on his face as he holds his scythe

Ok, this time he might just straight up kill you, but calm down

“JUST GIVE UP NOW, THE MORE YOU ATTACK, THE WORSE IT GETS”

You just glare at him, you must find a way inside without him interfering

He's stronger than you and you can't just fight your way out of this

The only entrance is blocked by him, the windows are closed up

the professor is the target, so you must find him, having the SOUL of BLOODLUST has it's peaks, you listen for his heartbeat

…

He's on the second floor

Ok, just kill him and leave, but from this distance you can't use your special attack, he's too far

You just need to get in

He starts his attack and you start dodging, it's easier than last time you admit, but it still isn't a piece of cake

As you're distracted with his attacks he somehow sneaks up on you and holds his scythe under your neck

Uh man, not fucking again

His glare hardens as he stares at you, you can feel yourself sweating under the mask, his hand starts coming to your face, he wants to take your mask off! You pull your head away, His scythe disappears as his literal claws take your neck as his other hand pulls your hood down

Ok ok think

Fuck

Think

He's made of bones so- bones? Bones! He MUST have bone marrow right?, and blood is made from those

You have never tried manipulating someones cells but maybe, just maybe you can make them produce blood cells and then cut it off so that he can't move his body for a few seconds, or maybe you can control the bone marrows themselves

You close your eyes, concentrating as hard as you can as his hand reaches you mask

Come on 

Come on

COME ON!

You're completely ready to be unmasked but then you hear a groan and open your eyes, seeing sans look at his hand weird as it shakes

You did it! You did it!

You grin widely under the mask before kicking him in the head which makes him stumble but you do the same thing you did to his hands to his legs which makes him fall to his knees as he groans

“What the fuck” You hear him mutter, sorry sansy

You run inside quickly, going to where you hear his heartbeat from, you let go of your magic on sans, not wanting to hurt him

You run in the room professor ‘jones’ is in

He looks at you with wide eyes as you walk in

“HEY!” you hear sans say as well as his footsteps that come closer and closer with each second

You don't have time for this

You quickly make jones’ blood come out of his veins and gather in his throat, making him choke on it as he falls to his knees and grips his neck

Sans quickly bursts in, his eyesockets widening upon seeing the scene infront of him

You make a stairway appear outside the window and run out from it, sans leaves The professor to catch you as he jumps out of the window, following you quickly

Uuugh, damn it!

You don't have time to make him numb again

You let go of the stairway as you reach the bottom and jump the rest of the way down, sans falls but is able to land on his feet as he groans again

You run as fast as you can, jumping in your car and driving away as fast as you can 

Woooaaahhhh, you did it! You fucking did it!

You take your mask off with a big smile

You finally did it!

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

“How did you let a HUMAN beat you?!”

“I APOLOGIZE YOUR MAJESTY”

“just tell me how?”

“I HAD THEM UNDER CONTROL UNTIL I FELT MY BODY GO NUMB… FROM WHAT I SAW THE TARGET ALSO DIED WITHOUT EVEN BEING TOUCHED”

“Numb… touch” the queen thinks out loud

“We need to see what has happened to the corpse” she stands up planning to go to the autopsy team

Sans follows, the two walking in silence

“You said he chocked?”

“YES MA'AM”

Hm… 

The two final make their ways there, Seeing the team packing things up

“So?” She asks

“Your majesty! Uh…” one of the doctors, undyne, says before clearing her throat “nothing, but we found a few ripped veins, also there was blood gathered in the victims throat”

“HE WAS CHOKING ON BLOOD, BECAUSE I SAW BLOOD POURING OUT OF HIS MOUTH”

“in the end, the blood from the veins somehow has made it's way to his throat, chocking him and resulting in death”

“How can someone rip someones veins without even touching it?” the queen mumbles to herself

!

She has seen something like that before…

“Captain, follow me” she looks at the doctors next “Good job” she nods before walking away, sans following behind

“I've seen something like that before and i believe the two have the same cause” sans looks at her, waiting for the answer “blood manipulation”

“BLOOD?” That would make sense, the way he was feeling numb, and his target literally choked on blood

“you were still responsible for protecting the target, but that isn't something you could have prevented, so, this once, you're excused”

“THANK YOU, YOUR MAJESTY”

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

Who was that?! Whoever it was ruined sans’ reputation! If he ever gets his hands on them…

He clenches his fists as he makes his way towards the entrance of the house, before taking a deep breath and walking inside with the best poker face he can

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

You see sans walk in, trying to hide his frustration

“Bad day at work?” Papyrus asks

“I DON'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT” yeah cause you BEAT HIS ASS!

Haha! You still can't believe this, you really did it! with the use of your special attack but still, it's better than nothing, thinking about it now, you were able to control his bone marrow, what else can you do that you didn't know of?

Nathalie comes downstairs “sans! There's this new dress i really want to get, can we please go there?”

You fucked him over, so you owe him this

“But we were supposed to train together tonight, can't you go alone?”

“I want my boyfriends opinion”

“or you just want to get it with his money and don't wanna spend your own”

She gasps “How dare you say that? Of course not, you know what? You just ruined my mood” she crosses her arms, walking upstairs again

She did want his money

There, all done

“no time for training, just go take a rest”

Sans doesn't say anything and goes straight to his room, looking angry as fuck

Damn… you kinda feel bad now… but that professor deserved it and needed to die

sans was protecting the wrong person…

“Don't mind him, he'll get over it”

“I hope…”

Chapter 10

The next few days you feel kind of bad for sans, he looks stressed out all the time, at nights, in the morning even during training

Also, during training he's been more forceful and cruel.

these new injuries are deeper and hurt more, yeah since this is kind of a life or death situation you've been more serious and there has definitely been better results but damn

Today it's a ‘friendly’ combat that you two are doing. Sans, even though he's obviously holding back, is still too fast for your liking

“DON'T GET DISTRACTED” he says as he swings down his scythe, you jump out of the way

“ALWAYS KEEP YOUR FOCUS TO YOUR SURROUNDINGS” shit, you jump aside but you're a few seconds late as it slightly injures your leg

“DON'T LET INJURIES SLOW YOU DOWN” he swings one more time, you barely dodge it

“YOU'RE TOO SLOW!” He kicks you in your chest, you're breath stopping for a few seconds as you cough, he kicks you again, making you fall down as he stabs his scythe next to your head

“YOU'RE SLOW, DON'T PAY ENOUGH ATTENTION AND WASTE TOO MUCH TIME OVER A SIMPLE INJURY” he says, looking down at you, pulling his scythe out and walking away

…

That bastard…

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

you're sitting on the couch, going on your phone as the door bursts open and sans walks in, looking more angry than normal

“uh… you goo-”

“YES!” he yells, making you jump slightly before going upstairs

What's his problem?!

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

You had today off so you decided to make dinner, You prepare the table. And right on time, sans arrives again

“Hey sans, i made dinner, it's ready”

He looks at the food with a glare

“What's your problem?” You ask, looking annoyed

“IT'S POISONED ISN'T IT?!”

“Wha- why would it be?”

“THAT WAS YOUR PLAN FROM THE VERY BEGINNING, WASN'T IT? TO BE A PART OF THIS MARRIAGE, KILL ME AND GET EVERYTHING I OWN” he accuses

“Excuse me?!” You put your hands on your hips “why would i do that? I work for the special force, they pay me good enough”

“SAYS YOU” his glare hardens as he goes upstairs again

You know what? Fuck him

He can sleep hungry 

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

agh!

“TOO SLOW” 

He just cut through your shoulder!

“YOU WASTE TOO MUCH TIME!”

He swings again, damaging your arm

You wince, holding your arm as you see his leg coming up to kick you in the head!

You are able to move away just in time

“DON'T WASTE THE TIME YOU CAN ATTACK WITH WHINING OVER OLD INJURIES”

“you do realize that I'm not a monster right?!” You dodge his scythe again

“THEN A MONSTER CAN EASILY KILL YOU” he says, kicking your legs from under you which makes you fall on your butt, he holds his scythes blade under your chin

“YOU DIED” He says coldly

You push his scythe away before standing up

“Emptying your frustration on me isn't an option here you know”

“WHAT IS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN?”

“you think i can't see it? You're always letting your frustration out on me, I'm not a fucking punching bag”

“YEAH, YOU'RE A GOLD DIGGER INSTEAD”

You clench your teeth

“Don't you dare call me that!” you say, making magic attacks and attacking him with them

He deflects them with his magic simply

“TRUTH HURTS HUH?”

what does this fucker think of you?!

You make your blood close your wound as your SOUL pushes you forward, numbing the pain you feel

You make a scythe of your own, making sure to change the model slightly so that he won't recognize it

You run towards him, swinging at him as quickly as you can which he dodges easily

“It's nowhere near the truth, who do you think you are?!” You swing again and again, each faster than the last as your SOUL get's more frustrated

“THE MAN YOU'RE TRYING TO USE” he swings at you with his own scythe which you stop with your scythe before making magic attacks behind him and attacking him

He notices them at the last moment and dodges them, attacking you again

“I'm not trying to do anything!” You swing at him, he defends with his scythe, you, in the heat of the moment, without even realizing it make your magic enter your hands which raises the strength of your next swings

Sans seems slightly surprised before masking it

“IT SEEMS LIKE SOMETHING TO ME”

“Fuck you!” You swing at him rapidly, making him take steps back as he defends “fuck you! Fuck you! I don't have to stand here and take your bullshit! You think you're some tough shit?!” you swing your scythe at him with each sentence told “well guess what?! I was forced into this as much as you were! You think i wanted this?! The only reason i accepted was simply because they offered me some privileges in my job!” 

That seems to surprise sans slightly as his grip on his scythe loosens slightly, you kick it out of his hand before pushing him against the wall with the non sharp part of your scythe

“I was forced too! You think I volunteered or some shit for this?! Well guess what?! I didn't!” You say, breathing heavily as you slowly start to calm down

“YOU DID IT” he says simply “YOU WON”

“What the fuck are you talking about?”

“YOU PINNED ME DOWN WITH A WEAPON POINTED AT ME”

“Huh?” You look down, before stepping back “i… I'm sorry… i lost my temper…” you make the scythe disappear

he doesn't say anything as you turn around and go inside

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

A few days later, you are cleaning the dinner table and sans is helping

“HEY” 

“Yeah?” You aks as you pick up a plate

“I'M… SORRY”

“For what?”

“MY BEHAVIOR… I DIDN'T… STOP TO CONSIDER THE FACT THAT YOU WERE JUST AS FORCED AS I WAS… I BLAMED YOU FOR THIS WHOLE THING…” he seems like it's awfully hard for him to admit that

“See? It wasn't that hard” papyrus says with a smirk as he leans against a counter

“is there something I don't know of?”

“Just me going on his ass to apologize for being such an ass himself”

“Well, i… i mean i need to think about everything, but if you stop being such a pain then i guess it's ok”

He looks offended but doesn't say anything

“Also, really sans, I'm not trying to get advantage of you, which i kinda think a lot of people do, am i wrong?” you look at papyrus for answers, sans probably has some issues revolving around this topic

Papyrus shakes his head no “well I'm not, i think i make enough in my job” you shrug “and i didn't beg to be here, i was forced, yeah they did give me things in exchange but what I'm trying to say is this is a FORCED marriage for both sides, so how about we try to get along a little?” Yos take the dishes to the sink, your back facing the two

He doesn't say anything and just walks out

“Goodnight” papyrus follows behind

“Night”

You really hope he'll stop seeing you as his enemy

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

Since then, you can see sans's behavior changing slightly, he doesn't accuse you of things anymore, poisoning and all

He doesn't seem to glare at you all the time either and he almost seems… a little softer

You ain't complaining, it's actually quite nice not having him on your ass every single day

°°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

tonight, you can't quite fall asleep and right now, you're THIRSTY

You get up, going downstairs and to the kitchen, you see a purple light inside

What the- oh, they look like tri-forces, it's just sans

You turn the lights on, seeing him taking some painkillers before gulping down a glass of water

“You good?”

“YEAH”

“You don't look good” you comment, taking a glass for yourself

“WHAT IS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN?”

“you, as a skeleton, have eyebags which is concerning on it's own” he looks really tired “work?” You try taking a guess

“WORK” he confirms

“Try spending more time with papyrus and people you love, work isn't everything” you pour water for yourself in the glass

“DAMMIT! THIS ONE FUCKER KILLS ANOTHER FUCKER AND NOW I HAVE TO TAKE ALL THE STRESS”

Is he… talking about you?

“are you allowed to tell me about it?”

“A BODYGUARD DUTY GONE WRONG” is all he says

Yep, it's you

“Can't you take any off days?”

“THE QUEEN IS ANGRY ENOUGH”

Hm… maybe… you can help him a little…

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

“Asking For help from the royal guard? But we can take care of it ourselves, I'm pretty sure you can do this alone”

“Just… a personal thing… i wants to know if the captain could also… help”

“The captain? Sans?” You nod “why?” You don't answer that one, you can't just say you want to help him, for some reason. Mr.hatchett sighs “fine, but only this once” yes!

“Thank you very much sir!”

Ok, at least that's a start

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

“SO, WHAT IS IT THAT YOU NEED ASSISTANCE ON?” Sans stands there in a straight posture as he holds his hands behind his back

“Take a seat” you say simply, holding a serious look

He does as told, Waiting to see what the important matter you needed help with is

“There's actually nothing”

“WHA-”

“don't tell this to the queen, or mr.hatchett but there's actually nothing that i need help with, i can do it myself”

“THEN WHY DID YOU WANT ME HERE?”

“you seemed stressed at your job, so i thought maybe you can help in my current mission which is really easy, you can relax as i do the research and paperwork, then we go catch this small drug dealer and done” 

“WHY?” He looks genuinely confused

You shrug “i don't know, just thought maybe i could help”

“ARE YOU EXPECTING SOMETHING IN RETURN?”

“wha- no” you shake your head

He really thinks so low of you “What? A human can't be a little kind sometimes?”

“I… YOU JUST DID IT… JUST BECAUSE?”

“just because” you nod “now just relax a little” you stand up, walking to a locker in the corner of the room, gripping the handle and pulling it down, the murphy bed revealing itself “Don't ask why i have this”

He looks surprised

“IT'S A KIND OFFER, BUT I HAVE TO DECLINE, I GET PAID TO DO MY JOB, NOT LAY AROUND”

“you're working, working in my office”

“NO I'M NOT”

You just sigh “fine,” you push the bed up “then let me tell you the details of the case” you take a seat again

“So, recently this drug dealer has been selling a new type of drug, in which seems to be overwhelmingly strong, a week later, the people still seem under the influence. I have searched around with the cctv and have found his schedule and hideout, all i need to do is do the paperwork and we go and catch this fucker”

“THERE'S REALLY NO NEED FOR ME HERE”

“Shut up” you say mindlessly, filling the digital paperwork

Sans just sits there, not doing anything and just waiting

“Is it really that hard to relax?” You can see his tense shoulders

he doesn't say anything

You stare at him for a few seconds before turning your computer off, taking your laptop and standing up

“Let’s go”

“WHERE? ARE YOU DONE?”

“You'll see”

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

“A COFFEESHOP, REALLY?”

“what? it has wifi so i can do my job, at the same time you can get something to eat or drink”

You say, walking inside, sans follows, looking unhappy

“Come on grumpypants, smile”

He looks at you with an annoyed expression

In the end, he gets a coffee and drinks as you work

Now, he finally seems slightly more relaxed

“Ok, I'm done” you close the laptop in half an hour

“SO?”

“got the permission, now we need to go get him and that's it

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

“I STILL BELIEVE I DIDN'T NEED TO BE HERE, AT ALL” sans says, pulling into your houses driveway

“at least it was less stressful than normal, wasn't it?” you get off the car

“... I SUPPOSE THAT'S RIGHT” he gets off as well “...THANKS” he says after a while

“No worries” you say, walking in the house and stretching

“Nothing like home” you mumble, starting to go upstairs 

“Night sans” you don't give him time to answer and just go up to your room

“Goodnight…” he mumbles

He didn't expect you to actually help him like that… and not asking for anything in exchange? Now that's new… noone has ever helped him without expecting something in return except papyrus…

Chapter 11

Ugh, god you're bored

You're laying on your bed, back from work and bored out of your mind so you decide to go down, maybe someone will be there? Even though the only fun one is papyrus, sans isn't wary of you that much anymore but he's still no fun and nathalie… she'd a bitch, you don't like her

You go out of your room and go downstairs, finding papyrus sleep on the couch

There goes your plans

You sigh, walking to a couch and plopping down on it, staring at the ceiling, damn you're sleepy, it's around 10, sans is out with nathalie but you'd think they'd be back by now

You feel your eyes getting heavy and after a few minutes of pure silence

You fall asleep

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

You wake up to the sound of a groan, you open your eyes and look around, your eyes landing on papyrus, slowly waking up as he groans

He wakes up himself, looking around, when he finds you he grins

“Oh, hey there sister”

“hey brother” you decide to go along Which makes him chuckle

“You were asleep too?”

You nod, standing up and stretching

“where's my bro?”

“Out” you look at the clock, you've been sleep for only around 30 minutes, so they're most likely not back yet

“Another ‘date’?” You nod again, papyrus's normally calm expression turns to disdain

“you don't like that?”

“I'm sure you've noticed yourself what a gold digger she is… i doubt she's actually my bros SOULMATE" so they are dating cause they're SOULMATES?!

“why not? Don't they have related marks?”

“Well yes but… i still don't know”

“What are their marks?”

“A drop for sans and a triforce for nathalie”

“A…drop?”

“She was wearing a necklace with a drop the day they met” now that makes sense

“Then they're obviously SOULMATES, a triforce? What else could that mean?”

“Maybe someone who likes that zelda game thing?”

“That… makes sense too” so there's a chance the two aren't even SOULMATES? It's not that much though

“This SOULMATE stuff aside, how was your day?”

“Like always” he shrugs “what about yours?”

“Same thing”

“What made you fall asleep here?”

“I was bored, i came downstairs and saw you asleep, there was a lot of silence which made me fall asleep”

He nods

“Still bored?”

“As always”

“What do you think we play a video game?”

“Video game?... that sounds fun”

“Amazing, sans and nathalie never wanna play, it kinds sucks, playing alone” papyrus says while walking to the tv and turning his console on which he brought along while moving in

You walk to the couch infront of the tv and take a seat, he hands you a controller and you two start playing some combat games, he beats you a lot of times but you manage to win a few times

As you're playing the door opens and sans and nathalie walk in, not that you notice

This round you manage to win again so you yell jumping up to your feet and dancing around 

“Hah! Get that!” You point at the tall skeleton, he chuckles

“Yep, you got me this time”

Sans and nathalie stare at you two, sans looks disappointed while nathalie scoffs

The sound of the scoff finally gets your attention, you look at the two, seeing nathalie walking away as sans looks at his brother in disappointment. Papyrus sees you looking away so he follows your gaze

“Oh hey bro” he waves at his brother

“WHAT ARE YOU DOING?”

“playing video games”

“NOT ONLY IS THAT A WASTE OF TIME BUT ALSO I'M QUESTIONING YOUR CHOICE OF A PARTNER”

“What is that supposed to mean?” You frown at him

“wanna play with us?” Papyrus holds a controller up

“NO” sans turns around and goes up the stairs

“Come back here you bag of bones!” You frown as he leaves, he needs to hold respect! at least a little. He ignores you and leaves

“don't mind him, he's always like that”

“he doesn't have to insult me all the time” you cross your arms and sit down

“he just needs some time” he shrugs “ready for another round?”

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

You spend HOURS playing video games, celebrating loudly whenever you win which annoys sans to no end, he can't sleep with all the noises going on downstairs, when you two finally finish playing he thinks he's finally going to have a peaceful sleep but alas you two move on to BOARDGAMES

Yes, you all are off tomorrow since it's sunday but he still wants to sleep! Plus he goes to training with alphys on sundays

He just grits his teeth, trying to block the noises with the pillows but he can't

He grumbles, sitting straight, he stands up to come to get you two to calm down but as he's about to open his door he hears something that stops him

“Goodnight paps”

“Goodnight”

And then two doors opening and closing. Sans lets go of the doorknob and walks back to his bed with a sigh, honestly his brother is enough trouble for his sleep…

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

“You good?” alphys raises an eyebrow as she looks at her tired companion 

“YES”

“i asked for an honest answer”

“THE HUMAN GAVE ME TROUBLE SLEEPING ALL NIGHT”

alphys looks at him surprised

“All night?”

“YES, UNTIL AROUND 4”

“she's got good stamina” she comments, nodding as she does

“HOW DOES THAT CONCERN HER STAM-” sans cuts himself off “NOT IN THAT WAY YOU PERVERT!”

“Then how?”

“HER AND PAPYRUS WERE PLAYING VIDEO GAMES ALL NIGHT LONG!”

“oh, that makes more sense, since nathalie is there too and all”

“YOU ARE HOPELESS” he walks away from his lizard friend

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

You wake up late the next day, since you were awake until late in the night, actually does 4 am count as night or morning? Morning right? So you basically stayed awake the whole night, with papyrus of course, it was a lot of fun

You sit up, stretching and getting out if bed, you go through your morning routine and walk downstairs, going to the fridge to make a sandwich for breakfast, or lunch at this point

As you're making the sandwich, papyrus stumbles into the kitchen

“Hey paps”

“Hey” he yawns, plopping down at the dining table

“Sleepy?” He nods “honestly, same” you hand him your sandwich, you can make another one for yourself

He thanks you before taking it

You make another one for yourself and sit at the table as well

“Last night was so much fun, thanks”

“I should thank you, sweetheart” he smirks, eating the sandwich

The door opens and sans walks in, looking exhausted

“You good bro?”

sans looks at you two from the corner of his eye(socket)s. He seems annoyed

“What?” You Raise an eyebrow

“YOU TWO WERE SO DAMN LOUD LAST NIGHT, DO I LOOK OK RIGHT NOW?!”

“Not really, you look like shit” you answer which makes him frown at you

“Go take a nap or something” papyrus points upstairs with his thumb

Sans just grumbles as he walks upstairs, saying things under his breath, things that you do not hear

“What was that about?”

“Don't worry about it”

“Wanna do something today? I have nothing better to do” you suggest

“Depends on what it is” he smirks 

“don't know, we can watch movies, go outside, maybe get some coffee or something to eat”

“Cheating on my brother?”

“Oh yeah”

“I'm in” he chuckles

You two watch a movie before going out, getting coffee, ice cream and some food before going back home

You've seen people on the internet making different things with playdough. You always wanted to do that, but you didn't have a partner, you don't have that now either but maybe papyrus would be down?

So you ask him and he agrees

Now the problem at hand, you do not have playdough right now, and instead of buying some you decide to make them at home, that will be fun too

So here you are, wearing an apron with papyrus doing the same beside you, he's fun, he's literally down for everything

“Ok, it says here we have to whisk the flour, salt and cream of tartar” you read from your phone

You two nod at eachother, pouring the things in a bowl and you whisk them together

“pour the boiling water into a measuring jug and then stir in the oil and a few drops of food coloring” papyrus reads

You do just that

“You're not gonna help, are you?”

“eh, I'm not a cook” he winks

You look at him, unimpressed before getting a fistful of flour and pour it on him

He looks at you with wide eyesockets before smirking

He picks some up himself and pours it on you

By the end of the little cooking session the whole place is covered in flour, you are too

You put the playdoughs to rest and clean the kitchen in the meantime, papyrus kinda helps too, with his magic though

In the end, the playdoughs are ready

You finally go and sit down

“So, this is the first reference, a duck”

“ok”

“No magic”

“What?! Come on”

“Use your hands for once”

You and papyrus get to work, making the duck which both look weird, but his does so more

“Next up, we got a chicken”

You two nod and get to work, again, the result looks weird but who cares? This is your first times

A few references later you're finally done

You take pictures from the resulting sculptures to keep as memory

You two look at your handiwork, high fiving

“Masterpieces?” He asks

“Masterpieces” you confirm, in reality, you both know they suck but you don't care

“wanna watch a movie and laze around?” You suggest 

“I'm always up for lazing around”

“i think I've found my twin”

Youtwo goand lay on couches watching a movie but then you decide to watch more and more

By the end, you watch around 4 movies before going to bed

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

Papyrus is definitely fun to be around, so why not invite your friends over so that they can get introduced?

So that's what you do, invite them over

“Hello captain”

“again, Just call me y/n”

You invite the four girls inside, you've gotten quite close during the whole wedding thing so you DO consider them your friends 

“Guys, This is papyrus, sans's brother” you introduce “papyrus, this are my friends, olivia”

“Hello!”

“Charlotte” she waves

“Eleanor”

“Hey”

“And rachel”

“Hey there, nice to see you again”

“Hey” Papyrus greets them back

it takes a little but the five slowly open up to eachother and by the end of the night they're all joking around and having fun, ok mission passed

Now your friends also know papyrus, now you can invite them over and have fun with the skeleton

All according to plan 

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

From then on, you and papyrus spend a lot of time together and get quite close, he's fun to be around so why not?

Chapter 12

You can't wait to get home,you were forced to stay overtime today and it SUCKED

You pull in the driveway and get out of your car, going to the main door and going inside, then you go to the kitchen, hoping to have dinner there but to your dismay there's nothing

Ok, this is about enough, some nights there's no dinner because you think the others will make it and sometimes as you go to cook you already see either someone cooking or a pot already on the oven

So you decide to call a house meeting to address the issue, so you go, door to door to call everyone down

“Why?” nathalie asks with crossed arms

“Because we all need to talk, now go down” you move to papyrus's door and knock, the door opens after a little

“Yeah? You needed something?”

“House meeting, In the living room”

“House meeting?”

“Yep, there's NO discipline in this damn house” you sah walking toward sans’s room

You knock and he doesn't answer, you knock again and it finally opens, sans looks like he just woke up

“We're having a house meeting, come to the livingroom” you say, silently to make sure you don't startle him

“OK” he says simply, walking out and going downstairs

Damn, he's so compliant when he's sleepy

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

“ugh, why are we here?” Nathalie asks, going on her phone

“Because we need a schedule”

“Schedule?” Papyrus raises an eyebrow

“Yes, schedule for different things, first, cooking”

“Count me out of this” papyrus raises his hands in surrender

You look at him, unimpressed

“WE'RE THREE PEOPLE, EACH GET TWO DAYS, I'LL GET THE LAST DAY OF THE WEEK IF NOONE ELSE WILL” sans says simply

“ok, so when are you two free?”

“SUNDAY AND THURSDAY ARE MY LEAST WORK LOADS, I CAN ALSO TAKE FRIDAYS”

“Uh huh” you write that down on the piece of paper “i can take tuesday and wednesdays then” you write that down as well “so that'll leave saturday and monday for nathalie”

“Ugh, why should i?”

“Cause you also live here” you say with a deadpan tone “next off, cleaning. This is a quite big house, a small mansion if you will, so i feel like hiring someone for cleaning makes sense, y'all agree? even though we can't hire them for everything, i aint getting a maid or something, three roomates is already enough, so everyone wash their own dishes and do their own laundry, ok?”

“Whatever” “uh huh” and sans just nods

“Anything else everyone?”

“A CURFEW FOR LEAVING AND ARRIVING AND FOR TURNING THE LIGHTS OFF”

“what is this? A prison?” hell nah you aint agreeing to that

“Yeah bro, what if work keeps someone up? Or if it's an emergency”

“ALL I'M SAYING IS THAT YOU TWOS NOISES DON'T LET ME SLEEP AT NIGHT” he looks pointedly at you and papyrus, you sometimes invite guests over, papyrus and you also play video games together at nights and make a lot of noises so you kinda see where he's coming from

“Ok, then how about this? No guests after 11 pm and no video games after 12 am?” You suggest

“BETTER THAN NOTHING”

“Ok anyone, anything else?”

everyone says no

“Ok then, don't forget the cooking. Me and sans are not home in the afternoons, Are you?” You look at papyrus and he shakes his head no “you?” You look at nathalie “sometimes”

“Then you should think of something yourself” you shrug “ok, so we go through this one last time, I'll also put this” you shake the paper “on the fridge infront of everyones eyes, anyways, so saturday and monday with nathalie, sunday, thursday and friday with sans, tuesday and wednesday with me, no guests after 11pm and no videogames after 12 am” 

“THIS HOUSE MEETING WAS ADMITTEDLY A GOOD IDEA” sans nods

“We need order if four people are gonna live together”

°°°°°°○°°°°°°

Thankfully everyone has kept up to their promised day, even though nathalie cooks super easy to make foods but it's better than nothing you guess

that ‘curfew’ also seems to satisfy sans as he looks like he gets better sleep recently

It turns out his hearing is really good, better than other monsters so noises really mess with his sleep

You sometimes have night shifts and ever since learning that you've tried to be more quiet as you leave.

Yours and sans’s relationship is getting better, he doesn't hate you anymore at least so that's something

Chapter 13

You park your car, you've come home earlier today since there was nothing to do and you were able to convince dad to let you go

You get off your car, unlock the front door and go in aiming straight for your room

You go up the stairs, everywhere is peaceful. You take a deep breath in, hmm, finally, some peace and quiet.

That is something that you don't get to experience much lately with the new ‘roommates’

You walk past everyone's rooms and-

You suddenly hear a… was that a moan?

You look at natalie's room, the source of the noise, with a grimace, You should add that to the rule, be a little quite, sans may listen if-

That voice… the guy's voice, that ain't sans…

You don't know him THAT well but you still know his voice well enough. That was NOT sans.

Is she… is nathalie cheating on sans?

You can hear nathalie calling a name and again, it's definitely not sans

Ok, this is… awkward to say the least

You take a few slow steps backwards before turning around and fast walking to your room

You try your best to be quiet and just go sit on your bed, still a little shocked from what you just discovered. Yeah, nathalie didn't seem to be a good girlfriend but cheating? That is a DEAL BREAKER

should you… tell sans?

Should you?

how will he react?

Thinking of it now, sans has finally started not being an ass so… 

if you tell him about this, there's a good chance he won't believe you, then he'll start villainizing you again

He won't believe you over nathalie and if you have to guess nathalie won't breakup if she wants his money

Both parties want to stay together

So, conclusion, you will not tell sans shit

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

You all sit at the dining table, eating as sans and nathalie talk, papyrus is eating silently and you? You're staring at the couple, sans seems completely clueless and nathalie is acting like nothing has happened

“You good?” Papyrus's voice brings you out of your train of thought

“Yeah, why?”

He stares at you blankly for a few seconds

“What?” You raise an eyebrow

“I can tell you're lying sweetheart”

You make a small grimace, you're acting too weird! But you can't help it, it disgusts you to no end this whole thing…

You've always had strong opinions on cheating and to see a cheater and catching them red-handed? This is something that has not been leaving your head

Worst part is that you can't tell sans

“Ok yeah yeah, something happened” you admit, going back to eating your food, should you tell him? He's more likely to believe you, but there's a chance he will tell his brother…

Sans and nathalie seem too lost in talking with eachother to notice the other conversation going on

“What is it?”

“… not something i want to talk about”

He narrows his eyesockets, his eyelights glancing between you and the couple

You purse your lips to a thin line as you look at him, there it goes, he found out

“Wanna tell me what's going on?”

“IS SOMETHING WRONG?”

“no!” You say quickly, shit, now sans knows somethings wrong too! “everything is amazingly fine i just think i have something to tell to your brother” you stand up, taking papyrus's hand and pulling him away, out of the kitchen and towards the entrance door

Sans and nathalie look at you two before at eachother

Sans shrugs, going back to his food nathalie stares some more before also resuming her eating

“What is this all about? Are you seriously falling for my bro already?” He smirks as you push him outside

“No” you close the door “can't you just not get on my ass?”

“Sorry, no can do”

You roll your eyes. Papyrus gets a serious look on his face

“Is something wrong?”

You tap your feet on the ground lightly, now this is even more awkward

“Don't tell sans” he has to promise you that much, or you will not tell, cause if sans hears that, you will be the bad guy

“Depends on what it is”

“I won't tell you until you promise”

He looks at you for a little, not happy with that at all, before he clicks his tongue 

“I don't like promises… but fine, i promise, i won't tell him”

“I uh… caught nathalie cheating”

Papyrus stares at you silently, almost like he's trying to process the information

“Uh… i think i heard that wrong, what?”

“I caught her… uh… look i came home sooner than usual, then i heard noises so i was like… that gotta be sans and nathalie but that voice, i know that wasn't sans, plus he must have been at work at that hour” you try to explain as he blankly looks at you “you can not believe me or whatever” he most likely doesn't believe you if he's looking at you like that

“Cheating?” He finally speaks

“Yeah”

“Nathalie”

“Yes”

“With another dude”

“Yes sir”

He still looks at you blankly but you see his eyesocket twitching

“She, cheated, on MY brother?” He states more than ask

He tries walking past you to go in, you hold his hand, pulling him back

“Where do you think you're going?!”

“first that bitch uses my brother, i don't say anything because i don't want to see him sad, then i get along with every stunt she pulls, but THIS is the last straw!” He says angrily, frowning deeply

“Do you have evidence?!” You whisper yell “he won't believe you!”

“I don't give a fuck, she- how dare she?!”

“Papyrus, think about this! If you tell him, he will ask nathalie and she will say you're lying, then sans will ask for proof, do you have that?” He opens his mouth to talk but you stop him “yeah yeah, you have a witness, but who is your witness? The arranged wife that sans thinks is trying to pull him apart from the ‘love of his life’ that will not convince him”

“Then what am i supposed to do?”

“What you always do, don't do anything”

“But-”

“if you tell anything, you'll end up as the bad guy, you want your own brother to be wary of you?”

“No but…” he groans “god! I hate this shit, i should've killed her the moment i laid eyes on her” he turns around, talking angrily as he looks ahead

“Couldn't agree more, but papyrus remember you promised me not to tell sans, ok?”

“I can't just let this go on”

“try to gather evidence or something”

“how? She probably does it when we're at work, i can't catch her like that”

“Look, gold digging and using someone is bad too, so if you can close your eyes on that, do the same with this, cause this is a losing game, sans will NOT listen, it's his SOULMATE we're talking about”

he clenches his fists and teeth, bringing a pack of cigarettes out of his pocket, taking one out and putting it between his teeth before lighting it up

“well she's a shitty SOULMATE, couldn't it be someone else?” he mutters the last part under his breath

You pat his back

“Come in when you've calmed down” you walk inside, going to the kitchen to finish your food

Two heads turn towards you as you enter 

“WHERE'S PAPYRUS?”

“outside” ok, act normal, give a nonchalant expression

“WHAT DID YOU TWO TALK ABOUT?”

“some personal matters”

“HE'S MY BROTHER” sans presses

“it is MY personal problem” yeah cause you can't get this shit out of your head, it's stuck

He stops pressing for answers and stands up, he's done with his food it seems, so is nathalie, sans takes their plates to the sink and the two go up the stares

Are they gonna- but nathalie did it with someone else already…

You grimace again, shaking your head

DON'T think of that

Think about something else

Papyrus walks in the kitchen, looking grumpy

You don't comment on it and you two eat in silence

“What if we install cameras?” He suddenly asks

“To install them, we would have to bring someone to do it, nathalie will notice and stop bringing people home, even though it's still better, i don't want that kind of thing in my house”

“What if we do it while she's not home?”

“She can sue us for invading her privacy”

“No she can't, it's a security camera”

“Security cameras should not invade anyones expected privacy, bedrooms, bathrooms, restrooms, it's illegal to install cameras there”

He grumbles

“Is there shit we can do?”

“no”

“I'm gonna break her neck…” he mumbles under his breath, taking a spoonful of food in his mouth

“I would love that” you try to lighten the mood, but it doesn't work, papyrus still seems mad

“What exactly is bothering you?”

“My brother is getting used, financially abused, and is WRAPPED around a whores finger and i can't do anything!”

“He’ll come to his senses eventually… hopefully” you mumble that last part

“She CAN'T be his SOULMATE, that's not how they're supposed to be” he says, staring at the table intently

“As you can see, she is” you mumble, eating your food

“There must have been a mistake, i just need to make him see that”

“You seemed so nonchalant before, what happened?”

“Sorry” he sighs “just… i got a bit angry, cause she keeps doing new fuck ups, I'll… get over it”

You pet his arm awkwardly, not knowing what to do right now

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

And he did, he got over it in the span of a week or two, never mentioned it again and seemed to have gone back to normal

He still glares at nathalie from afar but doesn't do much beside that

Or that's what you thought

Turns out he has been trying to talk sans into breaking up or at least taking a rest, not mentioning the cheating but telling him other problematic shit, which sans did NOT listen to

As always, so he has officially given up

He walks over grumpily, plopping down on the couch, you don't even look up from your phone at this point

“Said no?”

“Said no” he confirms

“Told ya, just let it go”

“That damn- how does she have sans wrapped around her fingers like this?”

“Love, my friend, plus, it's his SOULMATE, of course he will act like that”

“I'll convince him one day… I'm telling you”

“Yeah, of course”

Chapter 14

You lay on the couch, going on your phone and wasting time when sans, nathalie and papyrus all enter the room

“Hey” you don't look up from your phone

“GET UP, WE'RE GOING ON A DATE”

“ok” you say, not actually paying attention to what he said

Suddenly your phone is pulled out of your hand which makes you frown

“Hey!”

“DID YOU EVEN HEAR WHAT I SAID? UGH, GO GET READY WE'RE GOING ON A DATE”

“we?”

“YES, ME AND YOU ”

“why?”

“THE QUEENS ORDER” he says, looking aside with an annoyed expression

Ugh, again?

“Where are we going?”

“I say the amusement park” Papyrus says

“No, a restaurant"

“Why are you two suggesting shit?”

“We’re coming along” papyrus says with a smirk

“Oh, so like a double date thing”

“A FAKE ONE, BUT YES NOW GET.UP.”

“fine” you stand up, walking to your room and wearing the most comfortable clothes you have since you're definitely going to the amusement park and then walk down

“OK, LET'S-”

“where again?” Just to make sure you convince him before leaving the house

“A RESTAURANT”

“No, we're definitely going to the amusement Park”

“See? She gets it” papyrus leans against you with his arm on your shoulder

“What? No! We're going-” you cut nathalie off

“If we're not going to the amusement park, i aint coming along, then you can explain to the queen why you didn't listen to her”

Papyrus Laughs, bringing a hand up for a highfive which you answer immediately

Sans looks between you and nathalie before sighing

“FINE”

“What?!”

“WE CAN JUST GO THERE LATER DEAR”

Nathalie looks mad but doesn't say anything further and just grumbles under her breath

“Let's go!” You say excitedly, walking towards the door, everyone goes to sans's car so you follow

Doesn't sans own a motorbike? Maybe you can go with that, that would be so much more fun

“Can't we go with your bike?”

“WHY?”

“It's more fun” he looks at his bike before at you, seemingly thinking

“i can drive your girl there” papyrus says with a wink

“FINE” sans says after a while, he hands papyrus his keys before walking towards his bike

Yes! You follow after him, he hops on and you do the same behind him

He hands you a helmet and wears one himself, you take it, wearing it excitedly

He turns the bike on and you wrap your arms around his body

Papyrus also turns the car on

And the two leave the house and start driving towards the amusement park

It's really fun actually but sans doesn't go as fast as you'd hope

“Can you go faster?”

“WHY?”

“cause there's literally noone on the streets right now and it would be fun, don't tell me you're afraid to” you say with a smirk

“ME? AFRAID? NEVER”

“then come on” you say with a smile

“HANG ON TIGHT” sans says as you hear the engine hum, sans raises the speed suddenly which makes you grip him tighter and closer, enjoying the wind blowing on your face as your smile widens

The trip to the amusement park is fun as hell as sans speeds through the streets, you've never rode a bike with someone or even alone so it is a new fun experience

As you reach the destination you jump down “That was so fun!” You say excitedly, handing sans his helmet back “thank you!” You say before walking to papyrus who is coming out of the car, they both have parked close to eachother

Sans joins you after a little as nathalie gets off as well and you all make your way inside

The park is quite crowded with long ass lines for the different rides but whatever

“Let's go on the freefall first” you say excitedly, pointing at the ride

“Why not?” Papyrus agrees

“No… we can go on something less…” nathalie trails off

“You're not scared are you?” You asks with a smirk

“Of couse not” 

“Then let's go” 

You go and take four cards (the cards are like credit cards but are specially used for this park, they're also reusable and rechargeable) and go in the line

In the end, nathalie doesn't come on the ride and just stays there, she was afraid after all

You, sans and papyrus get on the ride (you force sans since he wanted to stay with nathalie, you told him he has to act like this is a real date so he should be with you and he finally accepted while grumbling)

Closing the guards you sit there, your heart beating quickly in yoru chest

“You scared?” Papyrus asks, you can see him gripping the guards tightly

“Kinda” you admit with a smile, sans is sitting to your right as papyrus sits to your left

The ride starts going up which makes you grip the guards

“Guys, if we don't make it, just know i loved you all” you say jokingly, looking down, you now kinda regret your choice but it's too late for that

You look down, you're at least half way through and it's HIGH

You grip the guards tighter, waiting for the fall with your heart in your mouth, you clench your teeth and ready for the-

Suddenly the ride falls, making you look down, too stunned and scared to even scream until the ride slows down and you reach the ground

You laugh as you reach the bottom and the guards unlock, letting you get off. Your legs literally shake as you get off, adrenaline pumping through you while looking at your two companions who one has left claw marks on his guard (sans) and the other who looks shook

“You scared?” You smirk at papyrus and sans as they stand up as well

“Not as much as you” the tall skeleton says, pointing at your legs which are still slightly shaking

“Fair enough”

you laugh as everyone walks off to go on other rides

after that you, sans and papyrus keep going on different rides while nathalie does go on some and doesn't on some others

After going on a few rides yall get some food and just joke around (more like you and papyrus do) while eating

You get cotton candy and smoothies while choosing the next rides or waiting in lines

For the rest of the night you go on more rides, like right now that you and sans are seated on the roller coaster together and papyrus and nathalie are seating with eachother on another seat

You sit excitedly, holding your breath as the roller coaster slowly goes up and readies for the big fall

Your heart starts beating fast when suddenly the drop happens and the roller coaster goes quickly through all the twists and turns

You scream loudly, holding onto sans for dear life but refuse to close your eyes

All in all, it was fun.

You also see people pointing and taking pictures of your group at times

Sans looks pleased with that, since now all his efforts haven't been for nothing, if this gets nn the news, not only will the queen be happy, but also the whole goal of this date is achieved

at the end of the night, you suggest yall go on the ferris wheel so you and sans do while papyrus and nathalie don't

“Thanks sans, it was real fun today” you say as the ferris wheel spins, taking you up slowly

“IT WAS AN ORDER” he says simply

“Order or not, you brought me here and have rode every single ride i wanted with me, so thanks” you smile

He looks at you for a few seconds before talking

“NO PROBLEM”

Your smile widens as you look outside excitedly, seeing all the city lights and the people, the rides and vehicles when you're right at the top

“YOU… HAVE YOU EVER BEEN TO AN AMUSEMENT PARK BEFORE?” did you act too excitedly?

“Yeah, but it's something else with others around” You've only come here alone before which wasn't much fun

Sans just hums, looking outside

On the way back, the streets are even more empty as it's way past midnight

So again, sans speeds through the streets

In the end, it was a super fun day and you wouldn't hate doing this again

So for once, you're thankful to the queen

Chapter 15

You open the door, walking in, you find your team in the room, and of course sans's

You look around, searching for the said skeleton, finding him standing near a table, examining a map with a human

You walk towards him since he is the only one you know on a personal level, yesh you don't know him THAT well, but still

“Hey there”

Sans looks up before nodding

“HELLO” ugh, he's acting formal again but you decide not to point it out infront of all this people

You look at the map

“What's this?”

“The map of the place” the human answers

“Uh huh”

You look down at it, it's quite a big place

The special force and royal guard are doing a collaboration (again) to stop two groups of criminals and trouble makers. Sadly a human gang and a monster gang have started working together, so this collaboration is needed

So two of the strongest teams have been chosen and today is the day yall go to the place and arrest this trouble makers

After about 10 minutes of examining the map and talking about it, dad comes to give the strategy and explain the plan and finally, it's time to go

the ride there is mostly silent as everyone just sits in the vehicles waiting to reach the destination

Upon reaching the destination everyone starts making sure they're ready, checking their clothes, weapons and other things

“Ok everyone, this is just another mission, don't stress it” you say, trying to calm everyone's nerves

“Yes captain!” Everyone says, getting out of the vehicle

You fix your gloves before going out yourself

You see sans ordering his team and telling them what to do

What you don't expect is an attack hitting one of your people

You look at them quickly before searching for the source, finding it moments later

A guy, standing inside the building, he seems to have attacked from the open window

You and sans both tense up as you hear footsteps

“We're surrounded! Hurry everyone, change of plan!” You shout

“TAKE DOWN AS MANY AS YOU CAN!”

You and him also get to work

it seems a lot of the people are aiming for you and sans as you find your back hitting his as you both fight

You two glance at eachother for a split second before just going back to fighting

As you knock someone out you notice the others running away

What?

You look at sans seeing him punch someone unconscious, he still hasn't noticed it seems

You frown, going after one when you suddenly hit an invisible wall and groan

What is this?

Your frown deepens as you touch the invisible force infront of you

“WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!”

“there's something… i-” sans grits his teeth, pushing you aside and trying to go after them when he hits the wall too

You look at him with an annoyed expression “you think i wouldn't just pass if i could?”

sans doesn't answer, inspecting the seemingly empty air closely

“IT MUST BE A MAGICAL FORCE FIELD”

“So… we're stuck?”

He punches the ‘forcefield’ as he said and nothing happens

You all hear a chuckle and look at the source

“You fools really thought you could succeed? Now look at you, all stuck” a human and a monster stand on the other side of the force field on the other side “your teams are imprisoned, and are all going to suffer the same fate as you two later”

You can feel the temperature slowly dropping

You look around with wide eyes

Both teams are either unconscious or tied, some are still fighting but they're losing one after one

He said ‘suffer the same fate’... what is this ‘fate’?

is the temperature actually dropping or is it just you? Stress maybe?

No… it's actually dropping, you're not THAT stressed, actually, you feel no stress

The two laugh before walking away, sans clenches his fists, glaring at the two as they leave

“Sans…” it's starting to get too cold… “they're gonna freeze us to death…” you wrap your arm around yourself to provide a little more warmth

Sans looks at you questioningly

“FREEZE?”

“Yeah! Freeze! Can't you feel it?!”

“NO?” His breath is starting to become visible in the cold air

He looks at it with slightly wide eyesockets 

You look around again, they're taking everyone away and for some reason you can't hear their voices

“How are you not cold?!”

“I USED TO LIVE IN SNOWDIN, I'M QUITE USED TO IT, BUT IT IS STARTING TO GET CHILL” you have no idea where snowdin is BUT if it's called snowdin then…

And did he say just ‘chill’?! Ugh

Damn, what are you supposed to do?! You and sans do not have fire magic to at least warm yourself up…

You wrap your arms around yourself tighter

“You have any idea how to break this ‘forcefield?”

“THERE'S NO WAY…”

“What?!”

“THERE'S NO WAY EXCEPT STOPPING THE SOURCE… WHICH IS THE GUY IT APPEARS, BUT I CAN'T FORM MAGIC FOR SOME REASON”

you try yourself, it seems you can't use magic either

“Maybe it's their doing… what are we going to do then?! Just sit here and freeze?!”

The temperature is rapidly dropping, you can't go out, can't use magic…

Is this where this ends?!

“KEEPING UP A FORCEFIELD TAKES ENERGY, IF WE CAN WAIT LONG ENOUGH, THE MAGE MAKING IT WILL GET TIRED…” sans looks around frantically

“How long exactly?”

“FROM WHAT I'M SEEING, THIS IS A STRONG FIELD… THE PERSON MUST BE AN EXPERT SO… I'D SAY AROUND 2 HOURS”

“2 hours?! I'll die until then!” you panic, you're not gonna die like this… are you?!

You try to call dad and michael but for some reason there's no signal

“HOW DID THEY KNOW WE WERE COMING?!”

Your body starts to slightly shake, your lungs burning slightly

Sans grits his teeth harder

“THERE'S NOTHING WE CAN DO” are you hallucinating or are his eyelights starting to get slightly fuzzy

“You good?” You say, trying to get the shaking under control

“NOT REALLY…” his breathing is getting heavier

“Is it cause of the cold or something else?”

“I THINK… BOTH”

Wait, the field is somehow stopping magic, aren't monsters MADE out of magic?

“What's going on? Come on, i need to know” or you'll both die!

“I… THINK THE FIELD IS… WEAKENING ME… SOMEHOW… AND IT'S CAUSING IT TO GET COLD… TOO COLD”

So you're both freezing… come on… think…

“Maybe they'll get us if they think we're dead?”

“MOST LIKELY”

“then why not pretend?”

“I GUESS THAT'S ALL WE CAN DO…”

“I'm genuinely freezing though…” is there any source of warmth here?...

Anything!

You'll take anything!

!

…

Ok, there's one… no two…

 you and sans

“Ok… this might sound weird, but we can't pretend without dying from the cold so…”

“SO?”

“Listen, we have to work together if we're wanna survive”

“GET TO THE DAMN POINT” He says impatiently

“Well… the only source of warmth here is me and you, so… we should keep onto it as much as possible… this is hard to say but… i think we need to stick together”

“WE ARE ALREADY TOGETHER” he says, annoyed that this was all you wanted to say

“No sans… we… gotta hug” he looks taken aback

“Like a blanket, blankets don't MAKE warmth, they save It, we have to use eachother like blankets, it will at least keep a small part of us warm”

He seems to think about it

“IS IT SERIOUSLY THE ONLY WAY?” He asks warily

“YES!” You raise your voice slightly, the weather is getting worse and worse

He looks around before looking at you reluctantly and opening his arm slowly

You quickly wrap your own hands around him, burying your cold face in his clothes

It isn't perfect but is still better

“Lets just take a sit” you say, slowly pulling sans down with you

You two sit, sans leaning against the forcefield and you on top of him, clinging to him desperately

After a little it gets slightly warmer between you two

“Ok, we just need to stay unmoving” you whisper and he nods

As you stay like that for around 20 minutes, you slowly start to feel sleepy, barely keeping your eyes open

You're about to fall asleep when

“You think it's over?” You hear one of those guys from earlier talk

You stay unmoving holding your breath, sans doesn't move either

“Let's see” you hear footsteps approaching, it's too close, he most likely somehow has passed the fields walls

your heart starts beating faster, slightly scared

You suddenly feel a yank in the back of your uniform

Ok, playing dead is NOT gonna work

You quickly let go of sans, rise to your feet and turn around, kicking his legs from under him

You see a hole in the forcefield that for some reason is visible now, it quickly repairs itself and becomes transparent again

You put your leg on the guys chest to make sure he won't run away

“So what? You're still stuck” the man standing outside says, which is the human smirking at you

If the barrier is now closed, there's a good chance, the guy inside which is the monster is the one making it cold in here, there isn't a 100% chance but the chances are not low

“But if the cold stops, then what's the point?” You smirk back at him

“what makes you think the cold will stop?”

You're not sure this guy is the mage with ice element but you won't let them know that

“maybe the fact that i got the little mage right here?” You push your leg harder

“You think I'm the one making it cold here?” He says, mockingly, laughing at you

“You do realize that if you die, the coldness will automatically stop, right?” You grin down at him “right sans?”

…

“Sans?” You glance back at him, he's… unmoving… “sans?” Your eyes widen, he did say the field was making him weak… what if… you don't know why, but you're starting to get slightly afraid of the idea of him dying… no no, monsters turn to dust when they die! you've heard that much… 

Fuck it! You've only heard about it, what if it's wrong?!

You hear laughter from outside the field

“One out”

“One remains” the monster smirks up at you, finishing the sentence

No… he's not dead

“Monsters turn to dust when they die” you narrow your eyes at the monster on the ground

“You believe that dumb legend?” He says mockingly

What if he's right?!

“Sans, come on, It's not the time for this! Sans! SANS!” he doesn't move, his eyelights are nonexistent

Your eyes widen further

“Sans?...” your voice comes out small, weak

You hear laughter, the two are laughing at you

…

They… they killed him… THEY KILLED HIM!

“What? Is the girl sad that her dear husband is gone?”

You look down at the guy hatred flashing in your eyes

You quickly move your leg, stomping down on his throat

You hear a choking sound as the guys hands fly to grip his neck

the laughter stops, silence falling over the place except for the monsters gasps

You put your leg on his throat again, glaring down at him, his hands are still there but it doesn't matter

“The cold is getting on my nerves” you say, pushing your leg down

He grabs your leg and is about to push it away, so you stomp down again and while he's distracted, you kick him in the neck, sound of cracking filling the air

As you thought, the temperature starts to rise

You look at the human, his eyes are wide as he stares at the body of his friend

you walk towards sans, he's just asleep, yeah, he's just a deep sleeper… that's all

You kneel next to him and shake his shoulder slightly

“Sans?” You swallow, looking at him with a frown, yeah you don't love him, but he isn't that bad! You were actually starting to like him! “Sans, come on!” You shake him harder “sans!” you keep shaking him and he doesn't move, his body falls against yours, as he stays lifeless “no…”

You look down at him, covering your mouth as tears gather in your eyes

You whip your head around, looking at the human who's staring at you. He seems to get startled

You gently push sans's body to lay on the ground and stand up, starting to walk towards him

“What do you think you're gonna do? You are stuck there” the guys says, obviously trying to suppress the slight stress he has

If you've learned one thing about humans SOULS, is that with enough DETERMINATION, everything is possible, it's all a matter of DETERMINATION, whose is stronger? Yours or his

It's said that people can literally come back from death with that SOUL trait!

Ok, you can do this, they killed sans! THEY KILLED HIM! You can't just stand here!

You punch the field

“What do you think is gonna come out of this?” He crosses his arms

Ok, concentrate, you can't die, if you stay here, you'll die, you'll die! You can't die

You

Can't 

Die

You throw another punch and for a second, you can feel the wall disappear, just a split second but it happens

The guys eyes widen slightly as he takes a step back

Come on, DETERMINATION!

You continue to try but fail, time after time

what are you doing wrong?!

…

You are not DETERMINATION… of course you can't do something with that… maybe… you should just try something else, your OWN SOUL trait…

BLOODLUST

Ok… your medicine stops you from fully doing this, but maybe, just maybe if you get angry enough…

What have they done so far?

This guy has taken your team, basically made you look weak, made you freeze

You clench your fists, glaring at him

He has forced you to stay here, trapped you, mocked you, laughed at… sans's death…

worst of all, he literally KILLED sans!

You need to get rid of him… he doesn't DESERVE to live!

You feel your nails starting to dig in your palm even though you have gloves on

You grit your teeth, punching the wall with all your have, all the hatred, the anger, sadness…

And finally, a red smoke spreads around as the wall disappears

The guy jumps up, quickly looking around

“How… it's not possible…” he mumbles in disbelief before trying to run away

You mess with his blood circulation which causes him to fall on the ground

You will NOT let him get away, not after what he has done

You grip his collar, making him sit and bringing him face to face with you

“I surrender!” he raises his hands in surrender

“As if that matters” your galre hardens

“What?... I'm surrendering! Just take me to jail or something!”

“Garbage like you, doesn't deserve that luxury” you make his blood circulation stop and throw him on the ground, watching as he slowly and painfully struggles, after all, his body should be feeling numb, he shouldn't be able to breathe, and much more

You glare down at him, a tear rolling down your cheek

You look at sans again, walking towards him, you sit beside him and put his head on your lap

More tears fall down your cheek

You were seriously starting to see him as a friend… you've spent a lot of time with him during these past months…

“Sans… wake up” you shake him again but again… the answer is silence

Chapter 16

You clench your fists tightly, biting your lip to stop the tears from falling but you can't, tears fall on his face and yet, he doesn't even flinch

you should go save the others but… you can't… you can't just leave him here…

But you can't stay here either. What can you do?! Nothing…

You slowly get up, mumbling a “sorry” before running inside

You simply kill everyone that tries to stop you, your SOUL thumping heavily in your chest due to the sudden amount of killing you're doing

You make sure to not make a mess so that noone will realize what you've done

You finally find everyone after a while of searching around

You free them and order them to get back to the original plan and take everyone down

As everyone goes to do just that, you turn back around, walking outside with your head held down

What are you gonna tell papyrus…

After reaching where sans originally was laying on, you find it empty

Did someone take him?! Why would anyone do that?!

You look around frantically trying to see any trace of a person when you finally do

“You- you're alive…” you mumble

Sans is standing, holding his head in his hand as he uses the wall for support

“You're alive!” You shout, making his head snap towards you quickly

You run towards him, jumping and hugging him closely “I thought you died!”

He stumbles back, looking down at you, shocked out of his mind

You let go, grabbing his collar and shaking him back and forth

“Never, fucking do that again you hear me?!” you glare at him

He takes your hand, pulling them away from himself and holding them to make sure you won't do anything, cause if your expression is saying anything, it's that you definitely want to attack him “WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! WHAT HAPPENED?!”

“You weren't moving! I thought you died! I'm gonna kill you myself!”

Your chest heaves as you breath heavily

Sans stares at you, before his expression softens slightly

“WHAT HAPPENED?”

“they came to check on us… one of them came inside, you weren't moving… the one who came in was the one responsible for the temperature, i… knocked him out” your eyes glance at him, thankfully no blood is spilled so it just looks like he has passed out “then i guess the one making the field was tired… i was able to get out and well…” you look at him, his lifeless body on the ground, sans follows your gaze

A monster and human run out the building, saluting infront of you and sans

“Sir, ma'am, the building is clear, everyone has been defeated”

Good, you can go home

You nod

“tell everyone, we're going back, I'll call people over to get them out and take them to jail” monsters can't find out you've killed the troublemakers, the humans are from your own branch, they have assassinated people before and know that you have too but monsters CANNOT find out

“Yes ma'am” the human nods simply, going in while the monster looks at you questioningly, after alm you are not her captain, of course she won't listen to you that easily

“Let's just go” you say, sounding exhausted, noticing sans is still holding your hands “you wanna let go or not?”

“WHAT?” he looks confused before looking down and retreating his hand like you've burned him

You get one of his arms, wrapping it around your shoulder

“Let's go” he looks reluctant but let's you help him to the vehicle, you make him sit in the same vehicle as you, just to be sure…

“What do you think happened?” You ask him on the way back

“AS I SAID IT WAS WEAKENING ME… I GUESS THE MORE WE STAYED, THE WORSE IT GOT…”

“Yall think mr.hatchett will be mad?” One person from your team asks

“I bet he'll be, i can just see it ‘that was such a terrible performance’” a girl answers, mimicking dads voice, everyone laughs as you and sans just watch

You sigh

“Will you report everything to the queen? In detail?”

“THERE'S NO OTHER CHOICE”

“Will she be mad?”

“THERE'S A HIGH CHANCE”

“Then don't tell her the detail, just say… we were stuck in a forcefield and they took the teams, we were able to get out in time and save everyone”

“I DIDN'T”

“Listen, it's all about the sentencing, me and you WERE able to get out on time, before they killed everyone”

he looks hesitant

“Just do it, nothing will go wrong” the teams have not seen what happened they can't tell the queen the details

He just sighs

“I'LL THINK ABOUT IT”

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

You and sans never talk about that incident again

But you do your little research and turns out monsters DO turn into dust when they die

That damn man WAS lying

You don't even fully know why you were so sad over his ‘death’

Are you really letting him be your friend? but let's be honest, he has been getting so much better, he doesn't treat you like his buddy but he doesn't treat you like enemy either, actually he treats you the way you treat him, like a roommate

You guess you're getting a little too comfortable

Chapter 17

The door opens and sans slowly comes inside

You look up from your laptop with a raised brow

He looks… flushed, his eyelights are slightly fuzzy and he seems like he's about to pass out

“Bro… did you get sick?” Papyrus says from the stairs, walking down and heading towards sans

“I'M FINE, IT'S JUST A SMALL COLD, I'LL BE OK IN NO TIME”

“I don't think so” you say, looking as papyrus puts a hand on sans's forehead

Sans honestly looks too sick to ‘be ok in no time’

Sans looks at you with an annoyed expression

Papyrus takes his hand and brings him to the couches, sans looks confused but papyrus makes him sit down and goes upstairs, coming back downstairs, holding medicine all while you type away on your laptop

“We're out of pills but there's-”

“AS I SAID I'M OK, JUST SOME SLEEP AND I'LL BE AS GOOD AS EVER” sans stands up before going upstairs

“Never knew skeletons would catch colds too”

“It doesn't happen often” papyrus shrugs, taking a seat on the couch

“Uh huh”

You and papyrus fall silent as you go back to doing your work and he just relaxes

After a little while nathalie comes in the house

“You may wanna go drop by your boyfriends room” you say, not looking up

“and why is that?” she asks, looking annoyed at you

“He's sick”

“What?! What if i get sick too?!” She says, looking slightly worried

So she doesn't wanna drop by

She seems to think a bit before walking towards the door

“Where are you going,” papyrus asks suspiciously

“I'm staying the night with mom” and with that, she leaves

You and papyrus look at eachother with unimpressed expressions before going back to what you were doing before

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

I'll be ok in no time my ass

By the morning, it's obvious sans is NOT gonna get better

If any, he looks worse, he descends the stairs in his uniform

“bro, you are not going to work like this” papyrus says, looking at him from the couch

“AS I SAID… I'M OK”

You look at the interaction from the kitchen as you eat your sandwich

Sans reaches the bottom of the stairs and is walking towards the door when papyrus blocks the way

“BROTHER, STEP OUT OF THE WAY”

“You can't go like this” papyrus now looks slightly worried

“EVERYTHING'S FINE, I CAN'T MISS WORK JUST BECAUSE OF A MERE COLD”

Sans tries to walk around papyrus but he doesn't let him, sans seems to be getting annoyed

“just call in sick”

“FOR THE THOUSANDS TIME, I'M OK BROTHER, AND IT'S GETTING LATE” sans tries to go again but again, papyrus doesn't let him

Sans frowns before disappearing in thin air

“He can teleport too?!” You ask loudly

Papyrus sighs “yeah”

“Then why does he even drive to work?! He can just appear there!’

“He thinks it's lazy” he walks to the couch, plopping down on top of it

“Don't worry, he can take care of himself” you say, walking to the door, it's time to go “see ya”

“See you later sweetheart”

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

You and papyrus sit at the dining table in the kitchen, eating food and joking around when The door opens and sans comes in, looking… not good

He's barely standing, his eyelights are flickering and you can obviously see just how much something is hurting, Now you're not sure if it's his head or his body, but something is obviously hurting since he seems to have problem walking

Papyrus's eyesockets widen as he sees him, he stands up

“Bro… are you ok?”

“YEAH… YEAH IT'S-” he suddenly covers his mouth, rushing to the restroom on the first floor

Yeah, he's definitely sick, so much sicker than you thought

a hint of concern flashes on papyrus's face as he walks towards the restroom

You hear him talking but can't quite make out what he's saying, moments later papyrus and sans come out of the restroom, papyrus is holding sans's back to help him, they go up the stairs and after a little papyrus comes down

“I need to go get him pills, can you-”

“Take care of him while you're away? Yeah sure”

“It will take a while, the pharmacy that does have the pills i need is quite far away from what i know”

“Just teleport then?”

“I've never been there before, i can't”

“Ok, don't worry about it, I've got it covered”

“Thank you” he nods, going out

You stand up and go up the stairs and to sans's room, he's sitting at the edge of his bed, holding his head

You knock on the door to let him know you're there and his eyelights, unlike always, don't snap towards the noise but he looks at you slowly

“WHAT DO YOU WANT?”

You push the door further open and go in

“Papyrus is out and he asked me to keep an eye out for you”

“I'M COMPLETELY FINE AS I AM, I DON'T NEED-” he covers his mouth again, rushing to the bathroom again

You shake your head, going to the door and standing there as he crouches next to the toilet

Alright what in the hell Is that? He's vomiting some… purple, shiny thing out

Almost looking like…

“You… throw up magic?!”

Sans's chest heaves as he breathes, a bit of the magic on his chin, you walk closer as he vomits again, damn he's really sick…

You hand him a hanky you keep with yourself when he's done

He looks at it with fuzzy eyelights before taking it with a thank you, he wiped his face before you help him up and take him to bed, you help him lay down as he breathes heavily

You put a hand on his forehead and almost jerk your hand back, he's BURNING

You walk downstairs, dampening a cloth with cold water and filling a container with cold water before taking them up the stairs and to his room, you put the container on the bedside table and put the cloth on sans's forehead, he's still breathing heavily

“Shouldn't you go to a doctor?”

“THE MEDICATION IS ALWAYS THE SAME…”

You nod, sitting at the edge of his bed

“YOU CAN JUST GO, I DON'T-”

“don't talk, you already seem to be struggling”

You keep reapplying the cloth after dampening it again and again until papyrus finally comes back

He has brought just one container of pills

“That's all you went out to get?” You raise an eyebrow, looking at him as he walks in the room with the pills and a glass of water

“He'll be good in no time with this” papyrus shrugs

Sans coughs, you help him sit up and papyrus hands him the two

He gulps the water down after throwing the pill in his mouth

“THANKS…”

“I can make him soup… if that helps”

“Any kind of magic induced food helps”

You nod, walking out the room and to the kitchen

Why are you even doing this at this point, ugh

But like… he almost died a few weeks ago and it did NOT feel good so… you don't want it to happen for real

You spend around a few hours making the soup and then take a bowl, walking up the stairs, poor thing has surely threw everything he has ate this whole day up

You go to his room and knock before going in

He seems to be asleep

You walk in, putting the soup on his bedside table, and turn around to…

Will it get cold? Until he wakes up? Should you take it? Soup isn't good when cold, maybe you should bring some later? Or maybe-

You take too long to decide, which you understand when sans stirs, his eyesockets opening as he looks around with his fuzzy eyelights

“WHAT… ARE YOU DOING HERE?” his voice is groggy and sounds tired

“Just brought you soup, do you think you can eat it yourself?”

“OF COURSE I CAN, WHY SHOULDN'T I?” He tries to sit up, groaning as he does so you decide to help him

You help him sit up

Hm…

You sigh, picking the plate up as you sit on his bed

You take a spoonful and keep it out for him

“I CAN DO IT MYS-” you shove the spoon in his mouth, he is always so annoying, ugh

As you bring the spoon out he coughs slightly

“WHAT THE HELL DO YOU-”

“listen, you're sick right now, i can definitely keep you down and force feed you right now, so let's just get this over with, look at you” you point at his shaking hand that is ‘supporting’ him “just relax” you shrug “it doesn't mean anything either” you say, pushing him slightly so that he's leaning back against the head of the bed and keep another spoonful of food out

He looks reluctant still

“It's gonna spill”

He still looks reluctant before he opens his mouth and you put the spoon in his mouth

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

Papyrus is going to check on his brother, he is really worried about him even if he doesn't show it much… sans is the one who raised him, took care of him and now the strong, powerful brother he knew is sick, too weak to even sit straight

It's not a good look… not at all…

This damn virus he has isn't some small, weak and insignificant cold. It's a dangerous one… but sans will surely get past this easily, he is the captain of the royal guard after all

Papyrus is about to push the door further open when his eyelight lands on his bed, you sitting on it, feeding sans as he leans back, he looks embarrassed as hell, even though, you probably can't tell

He smirks, taking a picture for future use before deciding to walk away

Sans is definitely in good hands

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

the queen has forced nathalie to go back to visit sans and take care of him, can't say ‘forced’ but if nathalie wants to keep the ‘kind’ facade on, she needed to go

Which is annoying, she doesn't wanna go, go and get sick! Ugh

But there's no choice, is there?

So she walks in the house, it's silent with noone in sight, ok she should just get this over with

She walks up the stairs and goes to sans's room

Peeking inside the room, she finds you, putting a wet cloth on his forehead as he sleeps, talking with papyrus

Ok, she doesn't like that, at all. And now she has two options, she can either go in and throw a fuss right now, or she can wait and do it later

If she goes now, papyrus will definitely interfere, and sans will wake up, and if he's sick that won't look good. Her, waking a sick sans up

If she doesn't, she can find sans alone later and turn him against you easily

Again, if she comes in now, she will be forced to take care of him but if she doesn't, she won't have to

Ok, the second one will definitely be better, and easier

For now, you can do her work

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

Sans has to call off of work for a few days but as papyrus said, the pills are doing wonders

everyday he's getting better and better

Nathalie came back too but she doesn't do much except visiting him every once in a while for a few minutes, even though sans seems to take that well enough

“I WOULDN'T WANT HER TO GET SICK EITHER” he said

So no problem on his side it seems

If avoiding red flags was a job, sans would be a billionaire

After a few days, he's completely healed and is back on his feet

So… this problem comes to an end

Chapter 18

“Hey sans, are you feeling better?” you ask with a smile as sans comes home from work

“IT'S NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS” he answers sharply

You look at him with a taken aback expression

Ok, what's wrong with him?!

“Excuse me?”

“IT IS NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS”

“The fuck's wrong with you?! I was just asking how you were and you're being a bitch about it”

“WHAT DID YOU JUST CALL ME?!”

“A BITCH, not to mention a moody twerp!” You're done with him, one day he's friendly, one day he's hostile, what even is his problem

“YOU BETTER WATCH YOUR TONGUE BEFORE I PULL IT OUT” he glares at you

You two get into eachothers faces

“Oh i would love to see you try” you glare back at him

“Hey, uh… you two are supposed to get along you know…” papyrus tries to defuse the situation “how about we all take a deep breath?”

You look at him “Deep breath my ass! This fucker thinks he can talk to me however he wants!” you look back at sans “who do you even think you are?!”

he takes your collar, pulling you up

“SAY THAT AGAIN”

“Who. The FUCK, do you think you are?!” You repeat

He grits his teeth as he glares at you

Papyrus quickly pulls you two apart from eachother

“Enough, what's wrong with you two?!”

“Ask your brother! The fucks's your problem?! You know what?! I'm done!” you stomp up the stairs

“Ok, what the hell was that about?” Papyrus looks at his brother

“DON'T YOU THINK THERE'S SOMETHING WRONG? WHY IS SHE BEING SO FRIENDLY? SHE MUST HAVE A GOAL” sans says, glaring at where you went off to

“Or maybe she just doesn't want drama?” Papyrus sighs, pinching his nasal ridge “you better go apologize”

“WHAT?! NEVER, IT'S HER FAULT TO BEGIN WITH” he crosses his arms “I'M SO TIRED OF THIS” he goes up the stairs to his own room, living papyrus to sigh again

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

You slowly wake up with the sound of your alarm, it goes on your nerves enough to wake you up

You shut it up before getting up groggily, you spend around 30 minutes getting ready, brushing your hair, going to the restroom, wear your uniform

After that you go down stairs and to the kitchen and make breakfast for yourself

You sit at the table when sans and papyrus walk in, papyrus looking mad cause he has just woke up

You roll your eyes, looking away from the two as you eat

Sans does the same, looking away from you as he prepares breakfast for himself and his brother

Papyrus looks at you two before shaking his head and sitting down

“Stop acting like children”

“Better day that to him”

“BETTER TELL HER TO SHUT UP”

“tell him I'll shut up when his bitch ass does”

“TELL HER-”

“that's enough” papyrus says, already getting a headache from this

You quickly finish your breakfast and leave

It's a silent drive to the special force since your mood is dampened by your argument with that damn skeleton

How dare he?!

You were just helping and he acts like that

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

Today is another training day at the special force so after a few hours the monsters along with their annoying captain arrive

Monsters and humans train together as you talk with rachel on your break

“YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE TRAINING RIGHT NOW” sans is basically the boss right now since this is magic training

He frowns as he talks

“with all due respect, what i do is none of your business mr.serif” you bite back

“I'D ADVISE YOU LISTEN MRS.HATCHETT”

Rachel looks between you two as you glare at eachother

“Uh… we're on break? We are allowed to have ten minutes every hour or so”

“THEN YOU BETTER BE BACK ON TIME” he turns around sharply, walking away

You cross your arms and look the opposite direction

“Ok, what's going on?”

“This bitch is so annoying! Always on my ass for no reason” you whisper yell

“You do realize that you two are supposed to present yourselves as an amazingly loving couple”

“i don't give a fuck”

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

The queen is walking in the hallways of the embassy, trying to get all her responsibilities which have doubled since the barrier breaking… it seems like it will never end either

Things are not going that smoothly in her personal life either…

as she walks, she accidentally hears an ongoing conversation

“You saw how the captain and his wife were acting?”

“Who didn't? Must've had a fight or something”

“Honestly, which couple doesn't fight? it's normal, but still, they seemed too heated”

“Exactly, i heard his wife calling him an ‘annoying twerp’”

“And i heard him call her a ‘nauseous’”

The queen frowns, you two have gotten in a fight? But that doesn't matter, you should have kept it behind curtains and at home, not bring it to the working place

It seems she needs to have a talk with you two, but that has to wait sadly, since she has some other things to get to first

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

“Can you stop getting on my ass?!”

“MAYBE I WOULDN'T IF YOU WOULDN'T LAZE OFF INSTEAD OF DOING YOUR JOB!”

“I'm not lazing around, it's called a fucking BREAK”

“OH REALLY? CAUSE I DON'T THINK SITTING AROUND ALL DAY IS A ‘BREAK’”

“You know what? I'll do whatever the hell i want, what are you gonna do?!”

“Captain?” Someone calls, voice slightly wavering

“WHAT?!” Sans whips his head around, glaring at the person who called. The poor rabbit monster jumps

“The queen wants to see you, sir!” the say quickly

he glances at you with his glare before nodding and walking away

“Fucker” you mumble, crossing your arms

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

“IS THERE SOMETHING WRONG YOUR MAJESTY?”

“there sure is, can you tell me WHY you're fighting with y/n? especially infront of OTHERS?!”

“SHE DOESN'T LISTEN! I KEEP TELLING HER TO GET BACK TO HER TRAINING AND SHE KEEPS INSULTING ME!”

“Whatever the reason, you better make this right. As SOON as possible”

“HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO, SHE DOESN'T EVEN SEEM REMORSEFUL”

“Go apologize yourself then”

“WHA- WITH ALL DUE RESPECT YOUR MAJESTY, IT'S HER. WHY SHOULD I APOLOGIZE?!”

“because i said so”

Sans's eyesocket twitches as he stares at the queen but is unable to protest

He can't apologize! It's your fault!

He can't just step on his pride

He clenches his fists

“Listen, we didn't go through all this trouble just for you to ruin it”

‘We’?! He was the one forced in a marriage, who's we?! What problem did the queen go through?! NOTHING

But he can't say all of that

“You better get this right soon, you may leave”

Sans grits his teeth but bows and walks out

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

“NOW THE QUEEN EXPECTS ME TO APOLOGIZE!”

“i mean it WAS your fault so…”

“WHAT?! SHE STARTED IT!”

“you started it bro, she was just asking how you were when you insulted her”

“CAUSE SHE'S OBVIOUSLY DOING SOMETHING!”

“no, she's not, what even makes you say that? Wait a sec, has nathalie said something again?”

Sans doesn't answer and that's an answer on it's own

Papyrus face palms

“Nathalie, the one that didn't even want to visit when you were sick, and y/n the one that took care of you, seriously?”

“WHY WOULD SHE DO THAT?! THERE'S SOMETHING SUSPICIOUS ABOUT THIS”

“no there's not! Oh my god, I'm done arguing”

You walk in the kitchen, looking around in the fridge to decide what you want for breakfast

“YOU BETTER START ACTING LIKE A PROFESSIONAL, THE QUEEN IS UNHAPPY WITH THE-”

“i don't care, if you expect me to treat you good, well that's too high of an expectation” you glare at him before turning back to the fridge

“THAT'S THE QUEENS ORDER” he spits

“I couldn't care less”

Sans stands up quickly, his chair creaking against the floor a she does

“Sans!”

Sans walks up to you

“YOU THINK LIKE DOING THIS?! I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE TRUTH TO BE OUT SO THAT I DON'T HAVE TO SEE YOUR UNBEARABLE FACE, I WANNA PUKE EVERY SINGLE TIME I SEE IT”

Papyrus's eye socket widens as he looks between you two

Ok… that stung too much…

You can feel a small lump in your throat but you're not gonna cry infront of him, you're NOT

You knew he didn't like you but… that hurt your ego a little too much, a sense of insecurity hitting you suddenly

Before you can even register it yourself you slap him

“Jerk”

 before going up the stairs angrily

Sans stands there, stunned, his face still in the place your slap pushed it to

Papyrus just looks at him and where you went off to, a little shocked over the whole thing that happened

“That… wasn't nice sans… you were supposed to fix it, not make it worse”

“DID SHE JUST-” sans holds his cheek, looking at the stairs, too stunned to be angry

papyrus shaking his head again

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

Since that day, you try your best to avoid sans throughout the day

Waking up sooner than you know he does, not attending the training sessions and sending rachel instead of you

Everyone is talking about it at this point

Mr.hatchett catching a word or two about it

So he has called you to his office

“What's wrong?”

“He's a moody bitch, i was just asking how he was when he insulted me, one day he's kind, the other he's not, I'm tired of him, you know what, i want a divorce, everyone already knows we're not on good terms, it's the best time”

“Let's not move too fast, if you two divorce, it will be even worse than before your marriage, that is quite out of question”

“He called my face unbearable and said he wants to puke whenever he sees it!” You point at your face angrily

“he was most likely angry”

“He has no business letting his anger out on me!”

“True” he agrees “but you should at least act like you're in good terms infront of others”

“Sorry, but i won't, I'm tired of this” you cross your arms

“You can't-”

“I can, and i will, he keeps insulting me! Im not gonna act all friendly with him” you stand up and stomp out

Dad just sighs

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

“I thought i told you to fix this”

“I TRIED… I JUST THINK… I WENT THE WRONG ROUTE”

The queen looks at him, unimpressed

“captain, i expect you to fix this as soon as possible”

“YES YOUR MAJESTY”

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

Ok he admits, calling your face unbearable and saying all that he has were a little too far

But he still can't bring himself to apologize

he's gonna go down the stairs when he hears you and his brother talking

“Listen he's just… he's bad at apologizing”

“i don't care, you saw what he said?!”

“It was in a fit of anger, I'm sure he didn't even mean it”

“Can we end this conversation, i don't even wanna hear his fucking name”

He has to apologize for what he said, humans aren't like monsters, they're not used to insults like that, he knows that but he still can't… his pride doesn't let him…

“... are you THAT offended?” papyrus asks slowly

“Yes! What the hell is wrong with my face?!”

“Nothing, seriously he was just angry”

“Well he can let that anger out on his damn girlfriend, i was just trying to be considerate since he was sick and that's what he does but if that isn't good enough, why should i even try?”

Sans hears a sigh, most likely papyrus's

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

Ok, if he has to apologize, he will, sans goes and buys a necklace, nathalie loves this type of things so you should too, right? That'll definitely show that he's sorry without him actually saying it

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

You go home from work, finding sans sitting on the couch, seemingly waiting

You roll your eyes, walking faster to get to your room quickly

“WAIT A SECOND” you stop, looking at him annoyed, what? He wants to insult you more?

He walks up to you, holding a box out

You raise an eyebrow as you look at it

He doesn't elaborate so you take it, opening it to see a necklace inside

What is that supposed to be?

You look at him again and he doesn't say anything

Is he… does he think if he gives you something then you'll start acting good infront of others again?! Who does he think you are?! Nathalie?! He thinks he can buy you?!

“Who do you think i am?!” You say with a frown “you think you can pay me to act good infront of others again?!” You force it back in his hand “you've got the wrong person sir!” You say stomping up the stairs

Sans looks stunned again

What? Did you misunderstand his intention? He was just trying to apologize!

The hell?!

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

Sans needs to seriously apologize it seems…

Ok, he needs to do something he doesn't like…

“You want help?”

“I TRIED TO APOLOGIZE WITH A PRESENT BUT SHE GOT ANGRY”

“uh huh, well…” papyrus thinks “you would like everyone to see you two are in good terms, right?”

Sans nods

“Then i think i have an idea” a smirk pulls at his teeth

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

Ugh, this bitch ass sans is walking towards you again

“HELLO”

“If you want to get on my ass again, then you better-”

Sans brings a flower out from behind him and holds your hand

“I'M SORRY… AND I THINK THE OTHER DAY THERE WAS A MISUNDERSTANDING, I CAN EXPLAIN IF YOU WANT… THERE'S A CAFE NEARBY, WE CAN JUST… GO GET YOUR FAVORITE, (insert favorite dessert here)”

You freeze, wait a second, he remembers your favorite?

“Uh…” you stare down at the flowers that he is currently holding out patiently “misunderstanding?” You look at him now

“I'LL TAKE TIME OFF OF WORK, WE CAN GO NOW… I'LL EXPLAIN”

You look between him and the flowers before feeling hands pushing you forward, you look behind you finding rachel who was the one pushing you and olivia, eleanor and charlotte showing thumbs ups

You look back at sans and slowly take the flower

“Thanks… uh… i guess i can always call and ask for a reschedule for my break hour” you say, still unsure

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

“Ok, i agreed because of others who were watching, are you gonna get on my ass now?” You raise an eyebrow as you look at sans from across the table

“NO… I'M SERIOUSLY… SORRY” he seems like it's genuinely hurtful to say that “I… SHOULDN'T HAVE… UH… YOU KNOW…” he taps his claws on the table slowly “BEEN SO RUDE… YOU JUST WANTED TO HELP AND I… I GOT IT THE WRONG WAY… ALSO THE OTHER DAY… I WAS JUST ANGRY, I DIDN'T MEAN WHAT I SAID…”

“Just cause you're angry doesn't mean you can say whatever you want”

“I KNOW… I'M SORRY… AND ABOUT THE NECKLACE, THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE AN APOLOGY GIFT…”

“Wait what?” that wasn't- oooh “couldn't you just say that?”

He looks aside

You rub your eyes “don't expect me to be kind towards you at home, but I'll play along in the public” you say quietly to make sure noone hears except from him

He nods silently

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

You two go back to the training area, holding hands before entering

The whole day you two try to act as friendly as possible

The words reach both your dad and the queen, both are pleased

Everyone talks about how sans apologized and seemed to have found it romantic so, a win?

You try not to get too close to him from then on, who knows when he'll turn hostile again?

Chapter 19

You look around, seeing people with cameras trying to hide from your view

“They can't be serious” you mumble, going back to looking at the menu

It is that time again, the time everyone loves

Valentines

Well, Not when you're single or worse, in an arranged marriage

“What can i get for the lovely couple?” The waiter asks with the normal customer service smile

“why is everything on the menu… like this?” They're all the ones that come for two, like those milkshakes that have two straws, there is not one single-person thing there

“Due to it being valentines of course!”

“I DON'T REALLY CARE, YOU CAN ORDER WHAT YOU WANT” sans says with his fake smile, putting the menu down on the table

Nice, so you can order whatever you want

“Then we'll have a (order)”

The waiter nods, typing the order down and walking away

For today, you and sans were ordered to come out together, and you can't say no to orders now, can you?

So here you are, at a restaurant that is screaming ‘love’ and ‘valentine’ with all the decor

Everywhere is filled with pink and red hearts and other similar stuff

“So…” you start, the silence is extremely awkward and you NEED to do something about it “what's your plan for after this?”

“ME AND NATHALIE ARE GOING OUT” he shrugs

Your face turns poker

seriously?

How rude can he get? Saying that while you two are here for a date

It's a fake but still

“WHAT?”

“nevermind” you massage your nasal ridge “ok, let's change the subject, Tell me about… i don't know… the UNDERGROUND” that's the first thing that came to mind and the only thing you are actually curious about

“WHY?”

“we need to have the conversation flowing, now go”

“FINE… WHAT DO YOU WANNA KNOW?”

“hm… how was it like? Papyrus says it wasn't good”

“IT WAS BASICALLY KILL OR BE KILLED, PUT YOUR GUARD DOWN FOR A SECOND AND YOU WERE A GONER”

“Sorry to hear about that, were you the captain down there too?”

“YES, I WAS, IT WASN'T MUCH EASIER DOWN THERE, THERE WAS A FIGHT EVERY OTHER DAY BETWEEN MONSTERS” he seems like he doesn't want to remember that

“Anything good about it?”

“I HAD PAPYRUS” aw, that's sweet “AND THEN NATHALIE TOO” ok he fucked it up

The smile that appears on his face is now genuine as if he's thinking of something he likes

The photographers most likely will think he's smiling at you now so, it's not a whole loss

Your order finally arrives and you two at first look at eachother, the air extremely tense and awkward

“Ok… let's just get this over with”

Eating from the same plate and the same glass is surely too much but you pull through, it kinda disgusts you though

Come on, you've never even held someones hand romantically before now you're eating from the same plate

You two try your best to keep smiling it gets harder as time passes but you pull through, sans doesn't fuck up either so that's also good

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

You and sans go get ice cream next, walking in the streets with the goods in your hands, none of you saying anything

You glance around when your done with your ice cream, some of the photographers are still following

You roll your eyes, before your eyes land on a reporter walking towards you 

This one is extremely popular, and works for a well known organization in a really good channel 

Ok, just this once, cause you want the queen to get off your ass since she's been bitching about your fight with sans from what you've found out

“Sans…”

“WHAT?”

“i love you so much”

“WHAT?” 

You pull him in a hug

“I just love you so much… I'm so happy to have met you”

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

Ok what the hell? Sans stands there, caught off guard, looking down at you with wide eyesockets, his eyelights vanished

He wants to push you away, but can't, due to you being in public

Is that why you're doing this now?! Cause you know he can't push you away?!

Or-

His line of thought is broken when he sees a specific reporter, the degree of the camera tells him all that he needs to know, you two are definitely in the frame

So that's why…

He looks back down at you, hid eyelights coming to life

He wraps his arms around you hesitantly

You lean up, putting a kiss on his cheek before letting go of him, catching his hand in yours and walking away, acting all shy

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

Ok, fuck

As you reach home, sans does not stop going on your ass about everything

“WHAT THE HELL?! COULDN'T YOU WARN ME?! I WAS THIS! THIS CLOSE TO BEATING YOU TO A PULP!”

You just roll your eyes as you sit on the couch with him walking in circles infront of you, lecturing you

Nathalie sits on the other couch, smirking at you

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

The queen, when informed about the news immediately goes to watch it and to say that she's happy with it would be an understatement

She claps her hands with a big smile as she stares at the scene

Now that's what they all need

Chapter 20

Sans, Papyrus and nathalie are sitting in the livingroom, each doing their own thing when the door bursts open and you stomp in, tears in your eyes, the three look at you, unsure

Papyrus decides to talk

“Uh… sweatheart you-”

“No! I'm not fucking good!” You say with a glare before tears stream down your face “my sleeve got stuck to the fucking doorknob 2 times already!” Your voice breaks as you talk and you start walking towards the stairs to go to your room when your hand hits the railing

You glare at it, kicking it before going up the stairs

The three all look surprised but don't have anything to say about it

You're sadly on your monthly cycle, known as a period and to say that you've been irritable would be an understatement, period cramps are a bitch as well. You go to your room, plopping down on your bed and just cry in your pillow after wrapping the blanket around your body

After a while of crying out of sheer anger, you fall asleep

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

You are awakened by a knock on the door, you grumble as a sign that you heard them

“it's time for lunch” papyrus says, opening the door and popping his head in

You look at him with eyes puffy due to sleep and crying

“What's wrong?” Period

But you won't just say that, he's a guy and maybe you shouldn't just tell him that, maybe he'll get uncomfortable or something

“Nothing” you answer, your face telling a whole different story

You stand up and walk past him silently, going downstairs and sitting at the table

The pain in your abdomen getting almost unbearable, you don't know why it's been so bad these past two months

You sit there, trying not to say anything as you all eat

After everyone is done, nathalie and papyrus leave, you are the last to finish your food as sans cleans the table

The pain and hormones get too much as you start crying again, weeping rather loudly which makes sans flinch

He looks back at you as you cry before looking at the entrance of the kitchen, hoping for papyrus to be close or even nathalie but nope, one is napping upstairs as the other left and went outside

He looks at you, unsure

He hesitantly steps closer

“UH… YOU GOO-?” before he can finish his sentence you lean your head on the table, your arms wrapping around your stomach as your body closes in on itself

He looks around, seriously not knowing what to do

But you seem to be in pain?

he knows it's not his problem, he knows he shouldn't care, but for some reason, he puts a hand on your back, slowly rubbing it

“WHAT'S GOING ON?”

“period…” you mumble, tears still streaming down your face

His hand stops for a moment before he resumes his rubbing

“ALRIGHT… WHAT USUALLY HELPS?”

“it's never been this bad”

He's genuinely lost on what to do, is there someone that he can ask from?

Not really

But he has a phone for a reason

with a quick search on the internet he decides to just get you warm somehow

So he helps you to your room and asks if you have a hot water bottle which yep, You do

He gets it full and hands it to you

You do put it on your stomach but still don't stop crying, you get more quiet but tears are still running down your face 

“OK WHAT NOW?”

“i want chocolate”

“WHAT?”

“chocolate…” you say quietly, embarrassed that you're asking him but you have no other choice. You're just CRAVING some and you can't get it yourself

Sans doesn't say anything and just stares at you

You're staring back, half of your face buried in your blanket as you cry

Sans sighs before nodding and going out of the room, he goes to a store, but gets stuck in there, not knowing what type of chocolate you like

As he stands there, just staring at the aisle, someone approaches him

“Hello sir, do you need help with anything?” 

He looks at the source, seeing a human and a monster, standing there, almost too close to eachother for sans to think that they're strangers, if any, they seem more like a couple

“NOT REALLY, THANKS FOR THE OFFE-”

“Please don't be shy, you've been standing here for a while now”

Should he-? Well, he doesn't want to be stuck here more than he already has

“WELL… I WANTED TO GET CHOCOLATE FOR… MY WIFE, AND I FORGOT TO ASK WHAT TYPE SHE LIKES”

“Oh! You want to give her a gift?”

“NO… SHE UH… SHE'S ON HER… YOU KNOW”

the woman ‘aw’s, finding this lovely that sans wants to help his wife in her moment of need and take care of her

“well, i don't know about her, but most people I've seen love this one” she points at one of the many brands and flavors “this is popular too” she points at another one

He will get both he guesses... he picks up a few of each one when the couple start talking again

“Also, Does she like ice cream?” the guy asks this time

He has seen you eat ice cream straight out of the very container numerous times…

He nods

“Feel free to get some of that too, women usually love it” he smirks down at his girlfriend, making her roll her eyes playfully

He thanks the couple, starting to go get the ice cream before he's stopped

“You know we really owe you” the woman says, smiling at him

“OWE?” He has never seen them before though?

“Yes! You and your lovely wife normalized human monster relationships, before that it was… not pretty” she hugs her boyfriends arm “thank you” they smile before saying their goodbyes and leaving

At least this marriage had something nice to offer…

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

Sans comes back with the chocolate also having ICE CREAM

By now your cramps have gotten so much better, you smile happily as he walks in, thanking him profusely as you eat the chocolate and ice cream, somehow, He has gotten your favorite flavors too!

You're thankful for what he has done

Chapter 21

"This is an important celebration, almost every monster will be there” the queen explains “and i ask you to come as well, of course as the captains partner”

uuuggghhh

“is there any other choice?”

“No”

“Figured” you say with a nonchalant face “when is this celebration?”

“The 10Th”

“Wait wait wait, this month?”

“Yes, this month”

“And you're telling me this on the 5th?” She nods “i would appreciate it if you would say this kind of things sooner but of course, I'll be ready”

“We have a dress picked for you” she says, looking almost excited

“Why?”

“To be sure you and the captain actually look like a couple, your clothes are handmade by our own royal seamstress, same color, same fabric”

“Can i know the color? No no, let me guess, purple” That seems to be a repetitive color scheme. The queen nods again. You sigh “I'll be there”

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

“CAN YOU HURRY UP?!” Sans asks, knocking on the door

“Oh my god, shut up, there's still 4 hours until the celebration”

“I, AS THE CAPTAIN, NEED TO BE THERE SOONER! HURRY UP!”

You're currently putting your dress on

“Shut.up. you can just go yourself, I'll join later”

“THAT'S NOT WHAT THE QUEEN ORDERED! WHY CAN'T YOU JUST HURRY UP?!”

“Because unlike you, i need to do my hair, wear a hard to put on dress, do my makeup and other things”

“WHY DIDN'T YOU START SOONER THEN?!”

You open the door, holding the dress up with your hand

“Cause i didn't know your ass wanted to be there so soon! At least be useful and help me with this” you turn around

“WHAT THE HELL AM I SUPPOSED TO DO?” he avoids looking at your almost exposed back

“Pull the damn strings and then tie them up”

He looks hesitant as he stares at the strings

“That won't count as cheating bro” papyrus says, leaning against the wall with a smirk

“CAN'T YOU JUST DO IT?”

“no, and before you ask, because i don't want to” he laughs, going downstairs

Sans grumbles something under his breath before his gloved hand come up and takes the strings in his hand, he pulls them slightly

“A little tighter” It's too loose, has he never done this before?

He pulls it more but it's still loose

You sigh “listen, you have to pull it until my back is completely covered” the strings are so loose that the two sides of the dress aren't even meeting yet

He does as told, pulling it until the dress is closed

“Ok, now tie it tightly, make sure it won't open on it's own”

He does as told, tying the strings

“Thanks” you say, walking inside

“COME ON!” he says as you take a seat on your dressing table

“Calm down damn it” you say, starting to put your makeup on

Nathalie walks near the door, standing next to sans

“She's giving you trouble?” She asks, completely ready as she smirks at you, you can see her smirk in the mirror

“YES” sans sighs “CAN'T EVEN GET READY ON TIME”

“Oh, sorry you have to go through that” nathalie says, wrapping her arms around his neck and putting a kiss on his teeth… lips… whatever

You don't say anything, it doesn't matter, who is she to get you frustrated? You just go on with putting lipstick on

“And so much makeup too, come on, noones going to be looking at you like that”

“Mad that i stole your boyfriend?” You say, putting on some mascara

“Excuse me?! You did no such thing” sans nods along

You just laugh, intentionally wanting to make her mad, she deserves it

She frowns and opens her mouth to say something when there's a knock

Oh, they're finally here!

“Paps! Can you take it?” you say loudly, to make sure he hears

“Gotcha” he yells back from downsairs

“WHO'S THAT?” sans asks, nathalie thinks maybe it's her the person at the door is here for

But no, the PEOPLE are actually here for you. You've called your bridal Party here, to help get ready for the ‘celebration’ which is actually just the anniversary of monsters breaking free, it must be important for monsters though

The four girls walk into the room, sans and nathalie just staring, surprised as to why they're here

You stand up and turn towards them

“What are we thinking?”

“Yeah, the dress is better than i thought” eleanor nods

“Nothing less to expect from the royal seamstress” rachel points out, nodding as well

“CAN YOU HURRY UP?!”

The four look at sans before looking back at you

“It seems your husband is in a hurry” rachel smirks at you

Don't call him that” you grumble

“Hello captain!” olivia says with a smile and wave before the four walk towards you

“Because i knew you'd be a pain in the ass i called some help, not only like this i get other peoples opinions, but also we can finish this sooner” you explain, taking your seat again as the four get to work

sans just huffs 

“JUST HURRY UP!” he says for the thousands time before walking downstairs, nathalie following behind

“He's so grumpy” eleanor comments

“See what i have to go through everyday?” You are only half joking

The four nod and you all get to talking as the four try to give you the perfect hair and makeup to match the dress

It takes a while but you finally get ready

“Thank you everyone” you smile 

“Of course” charlotte says with a calm smile

You four walk down, talking with eachother when you hear a whistle, you look at the source, seeing papyrus with a beer in hand

“Damn sweetheart, tempting me to steal my own brothers wife” he says jokingly with a wink

You laugh, thanking him after that

“FINALLY!” sans stands up quickly “HURRY UP, WE'RE ALREADY LATE”

“there's still more than 2 hours left” olivia points out

“ALREADY TOO LATE! WE SHOULD HAVE BEEN THERE AN HOUR AGO!”

you and your friends look at eachother with unimpressed looks as you finally make it down the stairs, sans starts walking towards the door

“Ok, lets go, see you later guys, also, the next hangout is on me” you wink before following after sans, papyrus and nathalie following after you.

You sit on the passengers seat and the other two take the back seat as sans drives

Nathalie never looks happy about that but to make sure it looks realistic you and sans have to sit together all the time

Sans seems worried as he taps on the steering wheel with his thumb as he drives

“You good?” You ask, raising an eyebrow

“WERE LATE… REALLY LATE”

“for what? Sans, you don't have to be there super early, it's not your responsibility”

“I'M THE CAPTAIN, OF COURSE I DO, I NEED TO BE THERE EARLY”

“to what? See the empty space? Has the queen ordered you to be there early?”

“NO BUT-”

“no buts then, then it's none of your business” why are you even trying to calm him down? Ugh, he forced you to leave the house so much sooner than needed

“WHAT IF-”

“just take a deep breath, nothing is wrong, what COULD be wrong?”

“AN ATTACK? MAYBE EVEN WORSE”

“if there's an attack, i promise to personally help and get the people arrested”

“Like you can do anything” nathalie days mockingly

“I work for the special force, of course i can do something” you don't let any frustration show “calm down, if anything is wrong, which there isn't, me and the special force will help, that, i promise”

That seems to calm him down slightly as he stops tapping his thumb after a while

You just relax the rest of the drive, making small talk with papyrus 

Until you finally reach the destination, you check yourself in the mirror one last time before putting on your best smile and stepping out the car, sans and the others following

There are a few reporters around that start taking pictures immediately

Sans walks and stands beside you, you two join your arms and start walking inside, papyrus and nathalie following While papyrus looks laid back and nathalie looks annoyed

sans looks around, making sure there isn't any probelms

“Calm down, see? There's nothing to worry about”

“I GUESS…” he keeps looking around, you just shake your head as you enter the place the celebration is taking place in which the reporters are not allowed in yet

“Finally, what took you so long, loser?” that dino lady from the wedding says, walking towards you, her dress looks a bit like an armor, she has a lot of scars on her face with an eyepatch on one of her eyes

“ASK HER” sans says, rolling his eyelights, the dino lady looks at you

“Hello, my name's y/n, and i didn't think he would want us to be here so early. He just randomly came home 1 hour and thirty minutes ago, asking me why I'm not ready yet”

“sounds just like him” the lady laughs, extending a hand which you take quickly

“The names alphys punk” she holds your hand a little too tightly and it causes slight pain but you don't let it show

“nice to meet you” you nod

“Same” she smirks

The queen also approaches you

“Hello, I'm happy you could make it” she says with a smile

“Of course” you didn't have a choice though

Noone is really around yet other than some monsters who are readying the place for the future celebration 

“Also, are we late?”

“no, actually you're quite early”

You smirk up at sans who just looks away with a scowl

You let go of sans's hand

“I see you have already met with captain alphys”

“Captain?” Isn't sans the captain?

“Yes, the royal guard has two captains if that's what you were thinking” oh, you didn't know that

“Well, again, it's nice to meet you”

She nods at you, her smirk still intact

You see a blue fish monster approaching your group, she comes to a stop beside alphys

“Hello” she say, looking shy

“hello” you extend a hand, you remember seeing her in the wedding, must be a friend of sans

She takes your hand, suddenly pulling you closer as she looks at you with a sadistic smirk

“such a pleasure to meet you, I'm sure we can have so much fun together” you grimace, still trying to hold the smile on. The ‘fun’ she's talking about probably isn't fun at all

you see the queen narrow her eye and sans putting a hand on yours and undynes intertwined hands

She looks between them, her smile straining before she lets go

You step back, standing closer to sans, you don't want to fight a monster, specially on the day of the anniversary

“I'm undyne, it's so nice to meet you” she says, the shy persona (not completely but) partially coming back

Yeah, you're not falling for that anymore

“Y/n” you say warily

“Oh I've heard alot about you” she says, a hint of sadism in her eyes

What the hell is her problem?!

“She's a nerd” alphys says, pointing at her blue friend “she's the royal scientist”

Oh, a mad scientist, huh?

Makes sense

You nod, showing that you've heard them

“There's gonna be a lot of people here, wanna get to know the place before that?” Papyrus asks, looking at you

“Yes, i ain't searching for things in the middle of the celebration” you say, walking closer to him instead

“Let's go then” papyrus starts walking away, you nod at the queen and wave at alphys before following him

You two look around, seeing where everything is, the restrooms, the tables, the bar and so on

By the time you're done the monsters start to show up

You two go to be with sans who is with the queen, talking about work related stuff, the two stop as you approach

“Please, as always, try your best for the night” the queen says, waiting for your agreements

“Of course your majesty” “AS YOU WISH YOUR MAJESTY” she nods, turning around and walking away

“Ok, stop being a grumpy ass” you smirk, before taking his hand and turning around to walk where there's a good open space to make sure people can see you easily

“LIKE YOU HAVE TO TELL ME” he rolls His eyes before a big smile pulls at his teeth

You two stand there as a bunch of monsters congratulate you two, it's a bit late but not every monster was invited to the wedding, that would be a lot of guests…

You two thank them with big smiles, acting all excited and lovey dovey which, ew

“Don't you two wanna dance?” Papyrus says wrapping his arms around your and sans’s shoulder and pulling you closer to eachother with him in the middle

“No” you say with a smile

“Every couples doing It” he says, wiggling his bonebrows as he points at alphys and undyne dancing together with his eyelights

“Wait, those two?” you think it's obvious what you wanna ask

“Yep, have been even in the UNDERGROUND”

So they are together…

Papyrus pushes you two forward “go get it” he says, looking lazy as ever

You sigh, sans still looks happy but you can see his eyelights getting fuzzy, you've notice them doing that before, that usually happens when he's tired, or when he's angry they completely disappear

“Let's just get this over with, people are staring” you start walking towards the place everyone is dancing on, pulling him with you

You two get in position, taking eachothers hands as you put your hand on his shoulder and he holds your waist

This feels so weird, you just want to get it over with, neither you nor sans like this as you two dance together, pretending to be happy

All this pretending is getting on your nerves, you can also see nathalie crossing her arms and glaring your way

She kinda has a point

“How has work been recently? Any better?” You try to make small talk, the silence was sickening

“THE SAME OLD THINGS, NOT BETTER OR WORSE”

“at least the fact that it's not worse is still better than nothing” You point out

“I GUESS”

“Sans, just saying but there's a chance the special force might have a celebration as well that you'll have to attend, thought maybe this is a good time to let you know. Every year, the agency celebrates the anniversary of it's first days” 

“SERIOUSLY?!” he sounds annoyed

“Yep, it won't be like this though, it's always more formal, less fun” you sound annoyed yourself “it's not gonna happen until a good two months or so though, so don't worry about it much” you explain when the music comes to a stop “there we go” you two stop, letting go of eachother

you spend the rest of the night near the queen, watching sans and her welcoming some of the guests

It's boring as fuck but you pull through

In the end you all get back to the car but you fall asleep mid-way and when you reach home, sans wants to wake you up but papyrus stops him

“She seems tired, just carry her up”

“AND WHY DON'T YOU DO THAT?”

“i had too much to drink, i might do something we'll both regret later on” he smirks, walking into the house

Ugh

“Just wake her up, who cares?” Nathalie crosses her arms

Sans sighs

“LET'S JUST GET HER TO BED” he picks you up, making you contort your face slightly but not wake up

He walks you up the stairs and into your room, placing you down on the bed

maybe he should wake you up… you can't sleep with makeup and a dress…

No, if you've fallen asleep, you can probably handle it

He leaves the room, closing the door before going to his room and getting ready for bed

Chapter 22

You're working in your office when your phone's notification goes off

You pick it up to see who it is just to see it's your mom

mom: hello y/n dear!

mom: how are you doing?

Why is she being so kind all of a sudden? She most Likely wants something…

Mom: why should i hear that you've gotten MARRIED from others?

Ugh, now who told her?

Mom: you should introduce us!

Like hell you will

You put the phone aside and don't answer, she definitely wants something cause she never just becomes so kind for no reason

God knows what she wants this time

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

You get out of your car, damn you're tired…

today was a particularly hard day at work and you're EXHAUSTED. Training with sans can wait a day cause you just can't WAIT to go to your room and lay down on your soft bed…

You insert the keys in the keyhole and open the door, going in you hear some talking from the other livingroom. The living room which is for guests, aw dang it, do sans and papyrus have guests? You hope it's someone who knows this marriage is arranged so that you can go and sleep and don't have to stay here to pretend

You go to the other livingroom

“Hey the-” your words choke in your throat as you see your WHOLE FAMILY SITTING THERE! “What the-!” sans and papyrus are also there, chatting with them

“Oh! Y/n dear! I missed you so much!” Your mother says, standing up and walking towards you with open arms, most likely expecting a hug

You move out of her way

“What are you doing here?” You ask sternly

“Wha- we wanted to see you of course!”

“Who gave you the address?”

“dear it doesn't matter! We're here now, we all missed you so much” she holds your hand and points at others

You father, two small brothers and older sister all there

“WHAT'S THE PROBLEM?” sans is sitting quite close to your dad, not on the same couch but they're sitting on two couches which are alongside eachother

“We need to talk” you look at your family “alone” then look at papyrus “you too”

The brothers look at eachother before standing up

“But we don't have secrets!” Your mom says, almost like disciplining a child

You just roll your eyes and walk up to sans, take his gloved hand and pull him to the kitchen, papyrus follows after you silently

“how did this happen?!”

“THEY JUST CAME HERE UNINVITED, SAYING THEY'RE YOUR FAMILY AND ARE HERE TO MEET YOU”

“You shouldn't treat family like that you know”

“EXACTLY, WHY DIDN'T WE SEE THEM IN THE WEDDING?”

“maybe tomorrow they won't be here anymore”

“Even better” you keep a poker face before looking back at sans “and you just let them in?!”

“THEY SHOWED PICTURES”

You sigh

“Also, that's like… your step dad?”

“...” you stay silent, should you tell them?

“Wait… is he…” Papyrus looks back at him, trying to make sure of something and he finds it, the resemblance between you two “then the general” the two look at you, confused

“Yes yes, he is my biological dad and that's my mom but it doesn't matter, what does matter is that we should get them out as soon as possible”

“is there something wrong with them?”

“Ever heard of this thing called favoritism?”

The two hold a look of realization

“But maybe they're here to fix it? Give them a chance”

“No, they most likely just want something”

“YOU ARE FAMILY, PLUS THEY DIDN'T SEEM OFF TO ME” sans shrugs

“If family mattered they wouldn't have fucked my childhood up like that” you hold your nasal ridge “listen, i know for a fact that they're up to no good”

“Let's just give them a chance” sans nods in agreement

“No”

“YES” sans walks out

“No wai-”

“Sorry kiddo, you know in the UNDERGROUND we really care about family” papyrus walks after his brother

Ugh, these two!

You follow after them with an annoyed expression, they take their seats again

Fuck it, let's play their way, they'll see their real intention soon enough and then you can force them to make it up to you or shove this in their faces

You sit down yourself, your mom coming to sit next to you

“Seriously though, why weren't we invited to your wedding? We are your family!”

“Didn't want you pulling a stunt and ruin the day”

“We would never! Don't you think it is insulting and scandalous that i should see my dear daughters wedding on the tv?!”

“It was a rushed thing” you just say that to get her off your ass, even if it wasn't rushed there was zero chance you would invite them

“Also, you didn't tell me you've gotten a raise! Congratulations on becoming the captain!” Oh shit

Before you can shut her up it seems sans hears it

“WAIT, THE CAPTAIN?”

“Yes! the captain of one of the branches in the special force, I'm so proud! I'm a successful mom”

“You didn't know?” Your older sister asks sans with a smirk “really? You didn't tell your own husband?” She asks mockingly

Oh shit, sans is going to explode…

“IT DOESN'T MATTER” that makes your sisters grin drop “EVERYONE HAS THEIR SECRETS”

“It's all over the news, how did you not know? It's not a secret either” she says with a fake smile

“I DON'T WATCH THE NEWS, PLUS IF IT'S NOT A SECRET THEN WHY SHOULD IT MATTER? IT'S MY OWN FAULT FOR NOT KNOWING”

You.love.him

He just saved your pride infront of your family!

“sans dear, can you help me with the tea?” You say, standing up

“OF COURSE” he stands up and follows After you

“You're the captain and you didn't tell me?!” He whisper yells when you're out of view

“Sorry i know i should have, sorry”

“Huh, and it was on the news?! How come noone ever told me?!”

“Sorry again, but god thank you so much for playing it cool. Actually, sans, you gotta keep this up!” You say, gripping his shoulder as you shake him slightly

“I have to eitherway” he answers

“No no, look, today, just go overboard with it! Just.. i don't know, how do you treat nathalie?!”

“You're not her” he crosses his arms

“Sans please, did you see the look on their faces?!” God that was satisfying “please” fuck pride, who cares about that when you can see that look on your jealous sister's face again?!

He seems to contemplate it for a few second before sighing “you owe me after this”

“ok, yeah, of course. Thanks!” This is gonna be a NIGHT 

You ready some tea and sans brings it out to ‘help’ you

He is a gentleman when he wants to be…

Fuck him, can't he be like this all the time?

to say that he's an amazing actor would be an understatement

Your mother seemed so taken aback with him offering the tea and everything

Your sister looked mad as fuck, dad and brothers, nothing really

“Thank you” you tell sans, as you pick a cup of tea for yourself

“OF COURSE” he says before planting a small kiss on your cheek and taking the tray back to the kitchen

…

Ok… uhm… if he was single you wouldn't hate shooting a shot if THAT'S how it would be

“Where did you find this young man” he's older than her

“There was one and i guess it was my share” you say, looking at the kitchen where sans went off to

“Where's the restroom again?” your sister stands up

You give her the direction and she goes sans comes back and this time sits beside you, a little too close for comfort, you're not used to it but whatever

“So, why did you come here again?”

“To meet you and your new husband of course! I can't help but wonder though, why is his brother also here? Wouldn't you two want… privacy?” Mom is answering every question which is suspicious on it's own

“Papyrus is honestly like a bonus for me”

“AND I WOULDN'T WANT TO BE AWAY FROM MY FAMILY, SO WE MADE IT WORK, I'M THANKFUL YOU ACCEPTED” sans says, putting a hand on yours

Papyrus looks with a raised eyebrow, whatever this is, he's in

“Again? Come on, i said not in public”

“Again?” Your dad asks.

“They do this all the time, just the other day- you know what, let me show pictures” wait what? Pictures of what?

He turns his phone around and shows a picture of you, leaning against sans as he's leaning backwards on the platform behind him, looking at it now, it looks like you're pinning him to the platform

This is the day you wanted to convince sans to train you personally!

“You took a picture of that?!”

“PAPYRUS! I SWEAR- DELETE THAT THIS INSTANCE!”

“i don't think i will”

“What was the context behind this?” your dad asks

“Sans being too professional at work to call her by her name”

“You're such a sweet gentleman, i wish ava could find a man like that too” your mom says

“My sister” you whisper to sans who ava is and he nods

“YOU FLATTER ME, AND I AM SURE MISS AVA WILL FIND THE RIGHT PERSON EVENTUALLY”

“Yeah, I'm sure of that” the way she said that… it sounded wrong somehow…

you sister walks down the stairs and sits back down

“i didn't cook dinner so i guess I should call ou-”

“I DID”

“You made dinner?” shouldn't nathalie do that? 

he nods

“I HAD EXTRA TIME SO I THOUGHT I COOK SOMETHING”

Ok, act romantic, act romantic

“Oh, thank you” you try to sound as sweet as possible as you hold his hand, he looks at you with an award winning sweet smile

“Ok ok, love birds, can we move on now?” papyrus says as he brings his phone down

“You took a picture” you say with a poker face

“Sure did”

You and sans look at eachother before he nods at you and you stand up and start running after papyrus who starts running away 

“Papyrus just delete that!” 

“Nope” he says as he teleports away, your families eyes widen when he disappears

“run however much you want! I'll catch you later!”

You say as you go back and sit down

“HE WON'T DELETE IT, HE NEVER DOES” sans shakes his head

“So, sans, what made you fall for my little girl?”

You're not little…

you look at sans, worried about what he'll say

“SHE HAS AN AMAZING AND CHEERFUL PERSONALITY, REALLY LIVELY”

He has finally learned how to lie without lying

He looks at you with a wink, you laugh hitting his arm lightly

“When do you think the food will be ready?” you slowly stop laughing

“IT SHOULD BE READY ACTUALLY”

“I'll ready the table”

“I'LL HELP”

“no, i can do it myself” You smile as you walk to the kitchen again, there are special plates and dishes that you keep for guests, you should do it yourself

“ARE YOU SURE?”

“Of course”

You bring the dishes out of the counters and ready the table when sans walks into the kitchen

“CAN YOU BE WITH THEM ALONE FOR A LITTLE? I NEED TO DO SOMETHING”

“something? What exactly?”

“CAN YOU DO IT OR NOT?”

“ok ok fine, jeez” you answer which makes him nod

Your family walks in the kitchen

“wow, you're an amazing cook” your sister says, standing next to sans

“THANK YOU, PLEASE EXCUSE ME, I'LL BE BACK” he walks upstairs as everyone takes their seats and starts with eating, papyrus walks in after a little as well before sans comes back and sits on your side, you're other side taken by your mother

During the dinner everyone keeps praising sans’s cooking skills, of course with other topics but it comes up multiple times

But however it is, it passes

You and sans clean the table and you ask sans to keep them busy as you get to washing the dishes

After a little though you hear a lot of commotion, one of the many noises being sans’s literal shouting, He's normally loud but this is something else, he's obviously yelling

You walk towards the livingroom to see what is going on

“WHAT ARE YOU EVEN TALKING ABOUT?! GET OUT!”

“What is going on here?” You ask as you enter the room

“YOUR SISTER TRIED TO SIT ON ME!”

“She what?!” You look at her with a frown as she just looks annoyed

“You should wish someone like me even looks your way” she says, popping her hip out

“Let's all calm dow-” sans cuts your mom off

“NO LET'S NOT! WHAT DO YOU MEAN?!”

“You literally just told him to leave your daughter to be with your other daughter instead” papyrus says with a frown

You look at your mom with a poker face

“AND YOU'VE BROKE INTO OUR ROOM” sans accuses while looking at ava

you have decorated the biggest bedroom to look like a room for two which is planned to be introduced as yours and sans’s shared room, he must be talking about that

“What?!”

“No i haven't! Are you accusing me of stealing?!”

“no, You said it yourself, he just said you broke into the room” papyrus glares

“get out” you say in your normal volume

“What?”

“Get the fuck out of my house!” You raise your voice, pointing towards the direction of the entrance door

Your mother takes a different approach as her smile finally turns to a scowl

“How dare you say that to your mother?! I should have gotten rid of you the moment you were born! You disgrace!”

“Get the fuck out before i throw you out” you say with a glare, you're done with this

“YOU BETTER LISTEN BEFORE I USE FORCE”

“we raised you! you ungrateful brat!” your dad says as your sister smirks

Sans walks towards her before extending a hand

“What?”

“YOU KNOW EXACTLY WHAT, GIVE IT BACK BEFORE I CALL THE AUTHORITIES, OH RIGHT, I CAN ARREST YOU MYSELF, RIGHT NOW”

she looks at him like he's bluffing

“I would listen if i were you” papyrus says, standing behind her، towering over her with a glare

She looks slightly scared as she bring a necklace out of her purse and hands it to sans

“NOW, GET OUT” sans pushes her towards the direction of the entrance door

She stomps out of the livingroom

“you brat, late abortion” your dad says coldly as they all walk after her, you three follow them until they're out, you close the door before sighing, your shoulders sagging

“sorry we didn't listen…” papyrus says, looking apologetic

“Don't worry about it, I'm used to it” you are, they didn't say anything new, they stang the first few times, now it's nothing

“did they really… abortion and things…”

“Nah, he just meant they should have gotten rid of me”

“WHY?” Sans looks uncomfortable

“They don't like my SOUL trait”

When children are born, they go immediately for a SOUL Trait test, your sister was perseverance, your parents expected something good for you too but upon realizing your true SOUL trait the two got started on their favoritism.

“WHICH IS?”

“a sore spot” you walk away. The two don't press for answers. You go and plop down on the couch, this whole thing giving you a headache

“SORRY FOR NOT LISTENING TO YOU” sans says, handing you your necklace back

“Don't worry about it, you didn't know THAT'S How some families are” you take the necklace with a humorless chuckle

“You good?”

“Yeah, I'm used to this. Nothing new, also, did they by any chance ask you about how much you make?”

“THEY ACTUALLY DID” sans looks surprised

“They wanted money then, before seeing that you seem like a good guy, then they changed their approach by targetting the source, they most likely thought this house is yours. Yeah, you can buy it if you want but that's besides the point”

“WHY?” He looks genuinely confused

“She's most likely single, ever since i was a child they always wanted the best things for ava, even if it was mine” like if you two got a prize at school or something, they would get the better one and give it to her

That childhood, plus your SOUL trait got you messed up, hence why now you have to take pills to keep your SOUL and emotions stable

You stand up and yawn

“I'm exhausted, I'll go to sleep. Thank you again sans, really appreciate it. Thanks for the dinner as well” you walk upstairs before going to bed

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

“That was… some information i wasn't ready for” papyrus says, looking up at the direction you went off to

Sans nods in agreement, he never expected a family to be like that… that must've been hard…

Chapter 23

Another day, another shitty shift.

As always you've been working your ass off, trying to get everything in order and all

You open the door and go in, finding the place dark, all the lights turned off.

You look around With a cocked up eyebrow

Sans should definitely be home, same with papyrus

You turn the light on, seeing papyrus laying on the couch as sans decorates the place

The two look at you when the lights turn on, finding you look around

“What's going on?”

“Nathalies birthday”

“TODAY IS MY DEAR NATHALIES BIRTHDAY!” Sans sounds too happy about that

Oh, yay, the day a bitch was born

You just hum, going to the kitchen to find something to eat

You open the fridge finding a huge ass cake in the fridge 

The cake is too big for three people

You take a random snack from the fridge and go sit on an armchair

“Why the huge ass cake?”

“The others will come here too” papyrus doesn't seem to care, he's just going on his phone

“Others?”

“THE KING AND QUEEN, UNDYNE AND ALPHYS, PLUS THE SMALL HUMAN”

“Maybe you can tell me when inviting people next time” rude bitches

“WHY?”

“cause i live here too? And i need to know when there's going to be a party in the house i live in” you grumble

“MAKES SENSE, WE'LL WARN YOU NEXT TIME” he nods, coming down from the ladder

“You know, you act so weird” you say, putting your legs on the handle of the armchair as you lean your back against the other handle

Sans looks at you with a frown

“One day you're super serious, the other you're like this, which one's the real one?” he's acting so excited, you like this behavior more

“A PERSON NEEDS TO HAVE DIFFERENT REACTIONS TO DIFFERENT SITUATIONS AND PEOPLE”

You just shrug at him and keep eating the snack

“how was work?” Papyrus asks, still going through his phone, not even looking up

“like always, how about you” you take your own phone out

“Same”

Sans keeps running around, trying to ready everything when there's a knock at the door, you and papyrus show no reaction so sans goes to open it himself

he talks with the guests before coming inside

“I see you're all getting along” the queens voice rings out

You glance up from your phone before it goes back

“Hello your majesty, sorry for the condition” you're tired of always acting so respectful, you want peace in your own house

“Don't worry about it” she says, walking further in the house while talking with sans about the birthday

“Hey, have you seen that new video with the guy running?” Papyrus asks

“No”

He sends it to you on the internet, you laugh as you watch it, before sending a video to him and hearing him laugh as well

“YOU TWO! STOP LAZING AROUND AND DO SOMETHING USEFUL!”

“the fact that I'm not ruining the surprise is useful enough” you answer, not caring enough to even move a muscle 

“Same” papyrus brings his fist up and you two fist bump

sans looks at you two disapprovingly

“let them be, they look tired” the queen chuckles

“Yeah, work's a bitch”

“Is that so? Why?”

“A lot of paper work followed by missions”

“What kind of missions?” assassinations and shit

“sorry, not allowed to say those”

another knock

Sans goes to open the door again

“You don't wanna give me a niece or nephew yet?” Papyrus asks, laughing his ass off like that's the most hilarious thing he has ever said

“You have to ask that from your brother” you say, smirking at him

Sans walks in, the king- asgore and chara following

“Oh, hey there kid, hey asgore” you wave

“Hello” “hi!”

“It's been so long” the child says with a smile

“Yeah” you ruffle their head

“Aren't you gonna stand up?” Papyrus asks

“Are you?”

“No”

“Me neither” you two start laughing again

“I see you two are getting along, i wasn't expecting that from what i saw on the wedding” asgore comments

“I mean, that was the ‘wedding’ of course i would act more energetic, but deep down, I'm a lazyass like papyrus here”

“i confirm”

Sans is still running around, getting everything ready

“Sans, if you put that much effort, you can find a girlfriend ten times better than nathalie, calm the hell down” you raise an eyebrow

“I confirm”

Sans and queen toriel look at you two, looking offended

You just stare at them with an uncaring expression

“You do know that you are talking about MY child, right?” The queen says, her eyes slightly narrowed

“Your what now?”

“They have legally adopted her” papyrus fills you in

“Seriously? You do know that she just wants the… you know what? Nevermind” it's not worth explaining

you yawn slightly as there's another knock, sans and chara go to answer it and this time, they come back with undyne and alphys

Ugh, undyne again…

“Hey punks!” Alphys grins widely, when her eyes land on you she starts walking towards you, she extends a hand for a handshake and you take it almost immediately, you like her

…

No you don't

She pulls you to your feet after shaking your hand

“Hey punk, Why so low on energy?!”

“Cause I had a shitty day at work and have recently come home”

“That sucks, but the party might cheer you up, sans isn't that bad with parties”

“I don't think I'll be staying for that actually, i wanna go to my room and slee-”

“No you're not!” alphys

“Why?” And chara say in unison

You look at the child

“I'm really tired, plus im not really invited”

Everyone looks at sans

“WHAT?”

“seriously?” The queen raises an eyebrow

“That's rude” chara says

“No really, it's nothing and-”

“I think you should really stay down” asgore says, a tiny smile on his face

“I don't know…” you ARE tired, and sans and nathalie do NOT want you here, why stay?

“I'm not letting you go eitherway punk!” alphys smirks at you, tightening her grip

You must admit though, these monsters are kinda fun, at least they are better than a lot of humans you see everyday

You just shake your head with a small smile

There's another knock

“I'll get it” you're already standing so why not? You walk towards the door and open it, seeing nabstaton

“Hello darling” he waves

“Hello there, nabstaton, am i right?” You extend a hand, you didn't get to talk during the wedding

“Yes, and you are y/n, correct?” He shakes your hand

“Definitely, welcome” you say, moving out of the way to let him in

“Thank you” he walks inside and you close the door behind

“Is that everyone?” You ask with a raised eyebrow

“Yep, that's about it” papyrus still doesn't look up from his phone

“Yall sure she'll even like a surprise?” You raise sn eyebrow

“Of course, she's quite excitable” the queen seems to smile at the thought of her

You see chara and the king looking at eachother weirdly, hm…

“Uh huh”

“SHE'S HERE!” Sans runs around, readying the candles and turning the lights off

You look at him, confused. He never acts like this

You feel a hand on your shoulder

“he gets like that sometimes, not a side he shows alot, just something his lover gets to see” papyrus winks. You nod at him and watch as everyone gathers around.

You hear a key going in the lock and twisting and the door opens, nathalie slowly walks in

She sees the lights are off and turns them on, the moment she does everyone shouts

“HAPPY BIRTHDAY!” Except from you, papyrus, chara and asgore

Nathalie looks surprised before smiling widely

“Oh my god, thank you all!”

Sans walks closer and hands her the cake, she looks at it happily before blowing the candles out

“Can i go upstairs?” You whisper to papyrus

“Only if you can sneak away without alphys noticing”

Ok, you'll try it

You turn around, slowly going towards the stairs and walking up when for some reason everyone goes silent and the creak of the stairs attracts attention

You stiff up, looking back slowly

“Where are you going punk!” alphys puts a hand on her hip

“To my room”

“Why exactly?”

“To…” you sigh “if we're gonna take pictures i gotta change right?”

“Oh yeah! You're right” she looks at you up and down “on second thought, I'm wearing an armor, your uniform would be fun for the picture, get the hell down here!” She smirks

You sigh and walk down the stairs

Nathalie is now putting the cake down on the coffee table

“Thank you everyone, this is so nice, I've never had a birthday party before!” That's probably a lie, isn't it?

She hugs sans before the two kiss

Ew

You cringe, looking away

“The problems of singles” papyrus says, putting his elbow on your shoulder and leaning against you

“Definitely” nabstaton nods along

“You too?”

“Yeah? Hard to believe?” He smirks

“Kinda, I'd think a celebrity wouldn't stay alone”

He shrugs “haven't found the right person yet i guess”

“Same”

“You're already married though” he chuckles

“I could still date” you point out

“Or get a divorce” papyrus smirks

“I think that's out of question, the queen would kill me”

the two nod

As you look back, the others are giving nathalie gifts and she seems more than delighted

She opens them, all of them are expensive stuff except from one

“I told the child to get something more expensive…” the king whispers

“What's the matter?” You ask quietly

“They got her a thoughtful gift, she's not going to like it a lot though, that much is obvious. I fear the kid will get their feelings hurt…”

You raise an eyebrow and watch as nathalie opens the present, it's an album of every picture between nathalie and the others

She so obviously looks annoyed and unimpressed, no matter how soon she masks it, you definitely notice the expression

“Thanks” she says simply, her tone a little weird

You see, she obviously shows her disdain for cheap gifts to make everyone know they should get her expensive shit…

Fucked up

The childs smile obviously falters slightly

Asgore pets their head

“Such a lovely gift chara!” You say, acting excited

“Really?”

“Of course! I would love to get the same one day” you smile down at them and they seem to cheer up again

“you're an amazing gift giver”

The child smiles happily

the King looks at you with a kind smile before nodding at you, mouthing a ‘thank you’

You nod back with a smile of your own

Sans hands nathalie a knife to cut the cake and she does before the put a piece on a plate, handing it to alphys who was close.

The two continues readying cakes and handing them to everyone

You like cake so why not?

Papyrus takes two plates walking over to you and handing you one. You thank him and the couple as everyone takes a seat to eat the cake, sans also seems to have prepared orange juice which he also gives everyone a glass

You've never seen him like this, so energetic, jumping around with such a big smile on his face…

You kinda feel jealous nathalie got to find someone like that…

Wait

What?!

No you're not, the hell?

You’ve never had a problem with being single, what is it now? Hell no

Eitherway, everyone eats their cakes and drinks their juice and has fun for the rest of the night

You chat up with alphys and undyne, still wary of the later

“you are together, right?”

“Yep, couldn't ask for someone better” alphys wraps a hand around undyne which makes her blush

“You two seem like opposites, is it a case of opposites attract eachother or there's something i don't know” you say jokingly

“A little b-bit of both” undyne says looking at alphys with a lovestruck smile

“You two get along so good, any tips? Maybe i got a boyfriend once”

“Just find the right person, then you don't need any tips”

“Makes sense” kinda

You three keep chatting up about casual stuff, not going any deeper than that UNTIL nabstaton turned out to be a dj and started playing music and turned the celebration to a party, alphys seemed to love it as she forced undyne to dance. The queen and asgore just watched everyone, never interacting ONCE

Nathalie also seemed to be having fun with the music as sans also let go slightly

Chara also seemed to have a lot of fun

Papyrus just sat on the couch, watching everything break down

asgore approaches you at some point

“Thank you again for helping chara like that, i appreciate it”

“It wasn't anything important, can't let someone ruin a childs happiness now can i?” You're being too kind though

“They really like you” he comments, looking at chara dancing with the song “would you like to drop by sometime? I'm sure they would love it, i would too” hangout with the KING? why not? You're quite curious about them

“Of course, why not?” You agree with a a nod

He gives you his number so that you can call him if you wanted or if you needed

“But, i wouldn't know when to call, how about i give you my number instead?” You smile

“Of course” he hands you his phone and you enter your number

“I get off work at 5 pm, also sundays and wednesdays are off”

He nods at the information

After some more time, everyone starts to leave one by one, you actually get nabstatons number as well, or he gives it to you after a little bit of talking

You yawn when everyone is finally gone

“Finally, time for some sleep”

“Agreed”

You and papyrus walk up the stairs and go to your rooms after saying goodnight

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

You wake up in the middle of the night, feeling thirsty

You groan, getting up from the bed and making your way downstairs to get some water, as you're in passing you see nathalie in the livingroom still, or maybe she came back later, she doesn't seem to notice you though

“Yeah, a party, they didn't take me out but at least there were some good gifts” she says before giggling

Ugh, bitch

“Except from chara, the annoying kid brought some bullshit as i thought they would”

You get to the kitchen, get your water and start drinking it

The noises created make her attention shoot to you

she scoffs before walking up the stairs

You swear you'll break her neck once

Chapter 24

Notes:

Hey everyone, HAPPY CHRISTMAS
sorry if this chapter didn't turn out that good or if it's a bit cliche, I've never celebrated christmas before
I tried

You open your eyes suddenly when the particularly loud alarm you've set goes off

Obviously you're off today since it's CHRISTMAS EVE

You get out of the bed happily

It's time to decorate the tree and bake cookies and watch movies and shit

It's childish to be this happy with your age but you don't care, you like it

You go out of your room and downstairs, finding sans already in the kitchen, making breakfast

Well he's up early

You walk in

“Good morning”

Sans glances at you before his eyelights go back to the food infront of him

“GOOD MORNING”

You sit silently, watching him as he cooks

After a little nathalie and papyrus also walk in

Papyrus looks kinda mad, which is most likely cause he woke up so early in the morning 

“Good morning”

“Morning sweetheart” he yawns, sitting next to you

“What made you wake up so soon?”

“I have an older brother” he says, looking at sans with disdain

You chuckle, sans always gets on his ass doesn't he?

“I'm inviting my dad over for tomorrow, would that be ok with you?”

“Yeah, why not?”

Good

After breakfast, papyrus is about to fall asleep on the couch when sans wakes him up

“GET UP BROTHER! WE MUST GO GET A TREE!”

A tree? Oh! Sans also cares about christmas?!

“I already have a tree no need to get another”

the two look at you 

“It's in the basement”

“Problem solved” papyrus smiles to himself, getting comfortable again

Sans shakes his head

“Well, wanna go get it?” You ask

Sans sighs before nodding

You two go to the basement and sans moves the tree ALONE

How the hell did he pick that shit up himself?! And he doesn't seem to be in any sort of discomfort

you stare at him with your mouth hang open as he effortlessly takes the tree out of the basement and puts it down in the livingroom

Nathalie smirks at you, walking over to sans and putting a kiss on his cheek

you finally are able to close your mouth

He is so much stronger than he looks… but he's a monster you guess

“Uh… I'll get the decorations…” you go back to the basement and search around for the decorations before finding them and leaving the basement

You and sans spend a while decorating the tree together, papyrus and nathalie don't really do anything

One is asleep, the other from what you've found out doesn't care about christmas all that much

Is there something fun that she doesn't want to ruin? You feel bad for sans for having to put up with her, poor thing has such a bad SOULMATE

You still wonder why someone like him had to end up with someone like her

Sans seems almost… excited while decorating the tree

after you're done, you two stand next to eachother, inspecting your handywork

It turned out better than you thought it would 

You look at sans, raising a hand for a high five

Sans subconsciously glances at nathalie who is distracted with her phone before giving a small high five

After that it's time to bake cookies and everything

Which again you and sans do

You have gotten a present for sans and papyrus too, but you wouldn't want to give one to nathalie, thankfully, you found out that she's going to the queen for christmas

Nice

You put your presents under the tree

“See? She's gotten you a present” papyrus tells sans as the two look from afar “don't tell me you haven't done the same”

“I MEAN… YOU KNOW… SHE'S UH…”

“Nathalie would get mad?”

Sans closes his mouth

“Well, it's rude to not get her one”

Yeah… he's right… it would be awkward if you gave him a present and he didn't do the same

“I'll help you find one” papyrus smirks

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

You spend the whole day decorating the place with sans

At some point the two brothers leave the house and you just decide to take a shower and ready dinner

That night, you three eat dinner before going to bed

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

In the morning you wake up early again, wearing a red sweater for the soul of christmas

You check your phone, seeing your friends congratulations before sending them your own

After leaving your room, you are shocked to see sans wearing a green one, Well, seems like someone here is matching your energy

“Happy christmas everyone” you say, coming down the stairs

“We actually call it gyftmas”

“Gyftmas?”

“Yep”

“happy gyftmas then?” You try with a soft smile

“Happy gyftmas… and christmas”

“HAPPY GYFTMAS” sans is putting cookies on the table

you hear the doorbell and quickly go to the door to open it, seeing dad standing there with a gift in hand

“Happy christmas” you say, hugging him

He wraps an arm around you and smiles down at you

“Happy christmas dear” 

You two go inside, it's cold outside and is snowing as well, so staying out isn't something you want to do

Dad greets everyone and walks to the tree, putting your gift under it

“Ok, first, let's watch christmas movies” you say, looking at everyone to see their reaction

there's no way dad will disagree with you, papyrus shows a thumbs up lazily, and sans shrugs

So you all move onto watching a movie, it takes a while for you and sans to settle on one movie, since you and him kept arguing about what to watch

After that you just eat the goods you've baked yesterday as you talk with dad and sans and papyrus talk with eachother

Then, it's time for the presents

You all move yo the tree, you pick the only gift that's yours and-

Your eyes catch another gift with your name on it… and then another one…

Noway sans got you something…

You look at the two, they're opening the presents they have gotten eachother

…

No way

You first open dads present and find a warm coat inside

ok, he's worried you will catch a cold, you get it

You look at him and he just shrugs with a smile

“Thanks” you smile back at him and push his own present towards him

“I've told you a millions times, you're not supposed to give me anything” he says, but picks the gift up anyways

“and i didn't listen” you joke, he shakes his head and thanks you

“I feel offended” papyrus says with a smirk

“Why?”

“aren't you gonna see what I've got? you're breaking my heart, darling” he points at one of the gifts

“Oh of course not, dear” you joke back, picking his gift up

You open it, finding a sweater inside with a bad pun on top

You laugh slightly and sans just looks at his brother, unimpressed

“Your turn” you pick the twos presents up, handing them to the two

Sans looks hesitant as he takes his

You also pick the last gift that has your name on it and open it

There's a really soft scarf inside with a candle

You can't believe SANS from all people got you something

“I see you two are getting along” dad says quietly, looking at sans who is opening his own present

“Yeah… it seems”

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

Papyrus opens his present, finding a new pair of slippers inside which make him laugh slightly but also… it feels kind of nice

He has never gotten gyftmas presents from anyone but sans… it's a nice change

He looks at his brother who is hesitantly opening the wrappers

he finds a bandana and gloves inside, the bandana looks exactly like the one he always wears

She most likely knew he wouldn't use it if it had any other pattern…

But the gloves are black, leather to go with suits

…

He feels something weird… he can't quite place it but it's definitely not an unpleasant feeling

He has never accepted any presents from others, even when it comes to papyrus he sometimes refuses to take them, so he, of course told nathalie to not get him anything either

It… it's nice

Seeing someone cared enough to think about what they're going to give him and actually give him something

He's used to being the one giving gifts, now receiving it… it's nicer than he thought it would ever be

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

After dinner, dad leaves, you try to make him stay but he says he has things to do

You walk to the two brothers who are sitting on the couch

“Happy christmas… gyftmas again guys” you smile, bending down and putting a kiss on each of their cheeks and stand straight again with a smile

Sans looks baffled as papyrus has a surprised expression on before his smirk returns on his face

“Happy christmas and gyftmas, sweetheart”

You wave at the two before walking up the stairs to go to sleep

Chapter 25

Today is wednesday so you're working at home, doing some annoying paperwork when your phone rings

“Hello?”

“Hello dear” “hello miss y/n!”

“Oh!” you sit straight for some reason “hello asgore, hello chara, how are you doing?”

“Amazing! Me and dad wanted to see if you want to come out with us! We're going to a coffeeshop!”

You look at your laptop before looking at the the air infront of you

anything to not do your work

“Of course, i would love to”

“Awsome!”

“I'll send you the address”

“Ok, thanks, when should i be there?”

“dad! dad! Can we pick her up?”

“Yes why not?”

“I wouldn't wanna be a burden”

“You're not, don't worry, we'll pick you up in about 50 minutes”

“Ok, thank you”

“Of course”

Ok, nice, fine, going out with the king to a coffeeshop

Maybe you can get some answers, like why him and the queen don't seem to be on talking terms, why they don't like nathalie, and maybe even somethings about the UNDERGROUND 

You close the laptop, get ready and wait for them to arrive. The house is empty right now, nathalie is out partying most likely, sans and papyrus are at work

After a while the king and chara finally arrive and you greet them, sitting in the car and going to the coffeeshop they've talked about

It's monster run it seems, and it looks friendly enough

Everyone seems a little tense when they see asgore for some reason

You three take a seat

“Thank you for inviting me”

“it's really no problem, chara was really excited when they found out i have your number and we can call you”

“Thank you for giving us your number!”

“No problem” you chuckle slightly

A waitress comes to the table and takes your orders before leaving with one of the best customer service smiles you've ever seen

“You come here often?” You lean back against the chair

“Yes, chara really likes here”

“Their cakes are fantastic!”

“I see, maybe I'll come here sometime” you nod

“so, how is the marriage thing going on?”

“Eh, not bad, i feel like sans is slowly opening up? Maybe? Just a little, papyrus is a lot of fun to be around”

“he is” he nods with a small smile

“nathalie on the other hand, is getting on my nerves, she's not doing anything to me but the way she acts is just…”

“She's rude and gold digging, yes we know” asgore clicks his tongue and chara nods in agreement

You look at them, your surprise evident on your face

“What?”

“I just thought me and papyrus are the only ones to actually notice, everyone treats her so well?”

“Lets me honest, I'm not really fond of her, the first time we met she was extremely rude, then she met toriel and had a 180 infront of her” he says with disdain “gold digging isn't something i appreciate much”

“Agreed, but I'm happy I'm not the only one who gets it, also i do not want to pry into your business but how was she rude? You don't have to answer though”

“It's just a harmless question” he waves a hand

“She called dad a freak! Can you believe that?! She's so mean and rude!”

“Who could ever do that?” You muse “did you help her after that?”

“I mean… i couldn't let her die”

Uh, a kind man

“I'm sorry to ask so many questions but, i would love to know more about the UNDERGROUND”

“No worries, small one. Well, for starters, there are different areas in the UNDERGROUND, the first is the RUINS where the humans fell to, then there's SNOWDIN, WATERFALLS, HOTLANDS and finally THE CORE and at last THE CASTLE” 

You listen closely as he starts explaining about each location, chara chiming in as well

“I can tell you all about how it was! I was the first human to fall down after all”

“I would love to hear”

“so imagine!” The kid says dramatically “i tripped and fell into a hole and when I opened my eyes i was on a patch of flowers! Then i saw dad! He took me to his house and cared for me for a while but… the RUINS is pretty small so i left, then i saw papyrus and sans and they were trying to capture me! Or… sans was, papyrus didn't really care”

You listen intently at what the child is saying and they keep going on and on about their extraordinary journey

it takes about 25 minutes of the two explaining until asgore notices the time

“Oh, sorry, didn't mean to ramble that much”

“Oh no, i loved hearing about this, i don't get to talk with others like this often, it's refreshing” except from a few friends but even those are few “any questions you have from me?” You smile

“This is a bit personal”

“No worries, I'll answer” for some reason

“You're too open for someone who works for the special magical force, why is that? You're almost too… enthusiastic”

“I take pills” you say simply, but he looks at you, a little confused so you elaborate “i wouldn't act THIS friendly if it wasn't because of medication, due to being too… problematic the higher ups have decided to get me medicated. They make me a bit too happy, that's all”

“medication, huh? then good for us that you take them, huh?” Asgore jokes

You chuckle “and for myself, i would hate to miss the opportunity to be here right now”

“Miss y/n you should really try this!” The child pushes their order towards you, you look at it for a little while before taking a small piece and humming in delight at the amazing taste

“Hey that's amazing”

“I know right?! I love them! I also love dads tea!”

“Tea?” You look at the said goat monster

“Golden flower tea, i make them myself, sometimes a blood tea isn't too bad either”

That piques your curiosity

“Blood tea?”

“Yes, but it appears humans are not a fan of that” he shakes his head before petting charas hair “we've learned the hard way”

“Do you think I could try it one day?”

He looks surprised at the question

“Hm… yes, why not? But then you'd have to come to our house”

“I would love to” your smile widens

“Then you are welcome to drop by any time”

“Can you come this weekend?!” Chara asks enthusiastically

“Sadly no, I'll be a little busy”

They pout

“How about the next time we are baking we call her over?” Asgore recommends to pacify the child and it seems to work as they nod happily. He looks at you to see if you agree as well

“I would love to join, if I'm not at work i will definitely drop by”

you all fall into normal banter after that until you find yourself talking with them about the barrier breaking and how happy monsters are about that

“Actually, noone knows how it shattered, so, how?”

“There were six human SOULS already, only thing that was needed was one more, but, we're not sure how it happened either” 

“Seriously? No idea?”

“No idea, no monster actually does, it appears everyone just… passed out at some point while it happened, we all woke up and saw the barrier broken”

“I see…” life is full of mysteries some times

“The 6 SOULS are the reason mom and dad don't talk…”

THAT is TEA

“Oh? Why is that?” you look at him expectantly and thankfully he decides to answer

“Her violent ways persuaded me to leave and go to the RUINS, to make sure humans wouldn't leave to get KILLED by her… she had decided to kill every humans that falls down, but one single human changed that” he smiles fondly, looking down at chara. You can see he holds a lot of love for the child, almost like a father would…

You smile at the two, you personally never have never experienced that until mr.hatchett, the two kinda remind you of yourself and him

“You are a very kind man” you say, looking at him with a soft expression, he stares At you for a little, seemingly searching your face for something

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

Asgore searches your face to see if you're genuine right now, he has never seen a special force agent acting so kind, most of them actually dislike monsters a lot

After not finding anything he thanks you with a small smile of his own

He is happy that you seem to be rather fond of him and the child, plus the other monsters

The child seems to really love you, the child that he himself loves like his own, they like you and he's happy to see you are so kind towards them, unlike nathalie

He feels like you could be a good addition to the guests that visit his house, he wouldn't hate you spending time with chara or even himself

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

“Have you found your SOULMATE?” He asks suddenly

“No, unfortunately”

“What is your SOUL mark like?”

“A bone”

He pauses, just looking at you

“A bone?” You nod “so… is there a chance…”

“What?”

“You and one of the skeleton brothers could be…”

“What? No, of course not, me and sans are not compatible at all and papyrus? His mark is a computer, there's no way it points at me in any way”

He nods, accepting the reasoning

After more talking it's time to go, they drive you home and after thanking them for the wonderful day and the drive they leave and you go inside

You go straight to your room and get your laptop to finish the work you abandoned in order to go to the coffeeshop, before going to sleep

It was a fun hangout, asgore seems like a nice guy and you're growing quite fond of him, specially because of the shared hatred for nathalie, it's kinda bringing you close

Kinda crazy yeah, but it's fine with you

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

After going home chara wouldn't stop talking about you and that left asgore wanting to have you over more, seeing the child so happy was nice

You are a decent person, seem to be really friendly and have good manners

You seem to be friendly with monsters as well so no problems there, he would be able to tell if you're lying, you weren't

Also, you seemed to not like nathalie which makes him believe there are two possibilities

1. you are a gold digger that are mad you can't do the mentioned activity while nathalie is
2. You are a human with decency and don't like people like that

But from what you've said and how you acted, it's most likely the second one

he will invite you over later, surely will

You are already married to the captain of the royal guard so you're already involved with monsters enough, if you were a monster hater you would have showed your distaste by now

So he's ok with you, he won't trust you fully just yet, for the sake of the small child, But he will let you prove yourself

Chapter 26

You knock on sans's door and hear a grumble before it opens and a tired looking sans comes into view

“What?!” He says groggily, looking at you with barely opened eyes

“Hey, you were sleeping? It's just barely 11… Whatever, listen i just got home and didn't want to call you so I'm telling you now, remember the anniversary of the barrier breaking?”

“YEAH”

“and we danced?”

“YEAH”

“and we talked?”

“YES, GET TO THE POINT”

“i told you about the anniversary of the special force”

“OH THAT, IT'S TAKING PLACE? WHEN?” he knows he should come, at least you don't have any convincing to do

“in six days” The anniversary is in six days and if you have a partner, They can attend as well, if they don't everyone just assumes they had a fight or something, so taking sans with you is the only way to keep face “ok, Wear a suit, black, don't forget a tie, that's a must, gloves are allowed and-”

“WHY ARE YOU TELLING ME WHAT TO WEAR ALL OF A SUDDEN?” you normally don't do that so doing it now is weird for him

“I'm just saying the rules, as i said back then, this anniversary is STRICT, it's nothing like the anniversary you had, which i must admit was ten times more fun. Anyways, no lovey dovey thing or anything, crossing your arms together is the furthest people have ever went”

“WHY SO MANY WEIRD RULES?”

“to keep face” obviously “so with those out of the way, just decide what you want to wear until then, the celebration starts at 8, be ready at 7:35”

“ISN'T THAT LATE?”

“not at all, see you then” you say, walking away “sorry to wake you up again” you say before going in your own room

Sans is a good actor, you've seen that a lot during your time together, so no need to worry about his behavior. just the dress code and how much acting he must do

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

Knocking on sans's door, you wait until he opens it and walks out, his eyes widen slightly as he sees what you're wearing

“WHAT IS THAT SUPPOSED TO BE?”

“a suit”

“DON'T WOMEN NORMALLY WEAR DRESSES?”

“not in this celebration” you fix your tie

You're wearing the special suit which looks a lot like your uniform, sans doesn't have to wear that since he doesn't work there though

“Ok, you ready?” 

“YEAH” he says, walking completely out of his room and closing the door behind

You can see a blonde hair on his shoulder though

You take your glove off (picking up hair with those is HARD) you try to pick it up

“WHAT ARE YOU DOING?” Sans says with a a tilt of his head

“There's a hair… got it” you say, picking it up

“OH, MUST BE-”

“nathalies, and what would people think if they saw it on you?!” You can't let this celebration destroy everything you've worked for, not mention she's also gonna be there

you just shake your head

“Lets just go, we're going with your car” sans nods and you two walk downstairs

Nathalie stands up and walks towards you two, wrapping her arms around sans's shoulder and kissing his cheek

“Don't be too late” she says quietly

What the fuck?!

You look at the two angrily, her lipstick left a mark! A mark obviously in a shade that is NOT your lipsticks shade, it's bright red! Yours is more of a pink hue that looks a lot like your own lips color, since lipstick isn't all that allowed in the celebration either

You push nathalie away immediately

“Tell me you have a wet wipe” you say with a frown

“What the hell?”

“WHAT ARE YOU DOING?”

“It left a mark! They will see that and think you're cheating on me! Then I'll never hear the end of it and they will go on and on and on about how i couldn't-”

“Ok ok, calm down” papyrus interrupts your rambling “What's wrong?”

“What do you mean? There is nothing wrong we're all-”

“THERE'S SOMETHING OBVIOUSLY WRONG”

“You're stressed out” papyrus nods

should you tell them?... if you want sans to behave to his best then knowing will help

“Ok ok, listen, there's this girl in my working place that hates my guts, for some reason she thinks i don't work as hard as i should, so she will definitely try to find something to annoy me with, and YOU” you point at sans “fucking up Is just what she would never let go, sans i swear If she get's something out of you I'm going to lose my mind and then I'll make sure someone knows embarrassing shit about you”

“LIKE YOU KNOW ANY EMBARRASSING SHIT”

“i have a library right here” you nod at papyrus

“HE'S NOT GONNA-”

“he will, with the right price”

“Depends on the price” papyrus confirms

“WHO'S SIDE ARE YOU ON?! UGH, I WASN'T GOING TO DO ANYTHING WRONG EITHERWAY” He rolls his eyelight

“Good, cause i swear if she gets a topic…” you take a hold of his face, trying to wipe the mark off with your thumb

Nathalie frowns “just cause you are in a marriage doesn't mean you get to touch him like that”

“It's not coming off! Go wash your face” you let go

He looks annoyed but goes to the restroom

“, finally. Ok, let's go” you start walking towards the door when he comes back

“SEE YOU” sans tells nathalie with a smile before following after you

You two go to his car and take your seats

“just a reminder” you say as sans starts the car “don't be overly talkative, don't talk with anyone unless they do first or just say hello, don't start conversations Sans DON'T START-”

“CONVERSATIONS, OK, I GET IT” he rolls his eyelights again

He pulls out of the driveway and starts on the way 

“Sans, listen, this is important, one small mistake and I'm not gonna hear the end of it”

He nods, you hope everything goes ok

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

You two reach the destination, you pull your glove down and look at your wristwatch

7:53

Hah, right on time

You two get off the car 

You look at sans a little, fixing his tie and collar as he at first wants to pull away but doesn't in the end for some reason

You wipe his shoulders before straightening his suit even though it's straight itself and has no problem you nod and you two join arms before walking in

“No smiles needed” you mumble, sans doesn't listen though and keeps smiling…

God damn it! Noone here smiles like that

You two walk in after you show the guard your card. Not everyone is here yet but there are a few people around

You two take a seat on chairs that are provided and are thankfully empty

“ok, no problems yet” you mutter, looking around

“Oh, look!” You grit your teeth when you hear that voice

Miranda

This bitch is ALWAYS on your ass, the person you're worried sans will fuck up in front of

She walks towards you with her date, aka her boyfriend which also works here, he's quite ripped if you do say so yourself

“Y/n! Haven't seen you recently! You must be sans! Her husband” she stands infront of you as you and sans stand up “come on, you should have told us you were dating such a handsome captain” she looks at you while she talks in a joking tone but you know better, she's just acting nice

“I'm miranda!” she says, extending a hand for sans. He shakes her hand “ow ow” she says which makes sans let go immediately “damn, and strong too, i bet you have a LOT of fun” she tells that to you but glances at sans and winks at him 

“is there something you need, miranda” you say, putting on the best smile you can but it still looks forced, something sans definitely notices

“Just wanted to see the lucky guy, you take less shifts now don't you? He must be the breadwinner then?”

You're about to say something but sans beats you to it

“LESS SHIFTS, MORE TIME TO SPEND TOGETHER DON'T YOU THINK?”

Fuck fuck fuck, no! Now she'll think you're too soft or something

“Indeed” her date says, extending a hand for sans

Sans takes it, shaking his hand firmly from what it looks, before the two let go

“oliver, nice to meet you”

“IT'S SANS, PLEASURE TO BE MEETING ONE OF MY DEAR WIFE'S COLLEAGUES” he says, putting a hand on your waist and pulling you closer

Didn't you tell him not to do that?! Damn damn, he's fucking up! Why?! Is he doing this on purpose?!

“Sans dear can we talk-” he cuts you off with a finger to your lips as he puts his forehead on yours

“We can do that later, right?” He says, his voice more quiet than normal

You

Are

Never

Seeing

The

End

Of

This

“Of course” you say with an overly sweet tone, you're gonna fuck him up later

“We won't be bothering you two, you seem like you need some time” miranda says, doesn't she kinda sound weird? Just a little? She takes her boyfriends hand before pulling him away

“What the fuck was that about?! I told you not to-” you whisper yell but sans cuts you off

“I did exactly what i was told, and more”

“No you did the opposite!”

“You asked me to not make you fall prey for a girl which from your reactions to miranda, it was her, wasn't it? From the way she was holding olivers hand it was obvious they have recently had a fight and are not in the best of terms right now, so i made her feel like the prey instead” he says, his hand behind his back

Wait… “is that why-”

“she sounded off while leaving? Yes”

You just stare at him for a little before glancing at miranda which to be honest looks distressed, obviously trying to mask it but failing miserably

You stare at sans some more

You wanna kiss him! He- damn! You didn't know he could be like that!

“look who's finally here” rachel greets, approaching you “took you long enough” she says with a smirk, coming to a stop beside you “Did miranda say something again?” she eyes her

“No…” you're still a little surprised from the turn of events yourself

“Then wha-”

“Guys, You've talked to miranda? She sounds MAD” olivia says, seemingly appearing out of nowhere

“Seriously?” Rachel looks at you “what did you do?”

You glance at sans and she gets it immediately

“Good job sansy” she smirks, nodding at him

“what did you tell miranda? She seems mad after talking to you” eleanor says, also appearing suddenly, or maybe you're just a little out of it still

“Sans did something” rachel says with a smile “don't know what you did, but way to go”

“LET'S MOVE ON FROM THIS SUBJECT” He says, standing straight as always

“Hello” mr.hatchet says, approaching you, looking just as stern as he every other time you see him

“Hello sir” you girls say in unison “HELLO”

“Y/n, keep a close eye on things, i don't want anything going wrong”

“Of course sir” he nods before looking at sans 

“is everything going well?” He most likely means the marriage. Sans simply nods in response

“Enjoy the celebration, as much as possible at least” mr.hatchett doesn't like this celebrations much himself, that much you know

He walks away, welcoming and greeting government agents, important guests and people like that, you kinda feel bad for him, he's basically still doing his job

For the rest of the night, everything goes well, sans acts a little too lovingly but by the end of the celebration you hear from your friends about how everyone was talking about how good yours and sans’s relationship is, especially with you two being the firsts to act like this during this celebration

The night was a SUCCESS, an absolute success

On the way back you don't really say much, sans just drives and you message and chat with your friends, they keep telling you about what they've heard others say about you and sans

After reaching home you go in happily and with a big smile

“It went well?” Papyrus says from the couch as he plays videogames with the console and on the main tv

“Well? It was perfect!” You exclaim as sans walks in

“Sans, you are a GENIUS” you don't even know what more to say or what to do, you just grab his head in your excitement, put a big kiss on his cheek and happily go upstairs, leaving a taken aback and baffled sans and a chuckling papyrus behind

Tonight went so much better than you thought, who would have thought going against the norm would actually help so much?! Sans definitely did an amazing job, you promise yourself to do the same for him in the next upcoming event

Chapter 27

Nathalie hates this

You're getting close with sans

TOO close

She feels threatened

Yeah, sans is real dumb and would never cheat on her BUT, you are friends with papyrus and papyrus obviously doesn't like her, the chances of you two trying to convince sans to do something is way too high

She needs to have a talk with him

Make sure he doesn't get too close

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

Just to make sure sans is completely on her side, she needs to use some waterwork it seems

“I- i don't feel- sans, I'm afraid she'll take you away from me” she sobs out, hugging sans close

He looks down at her with surprise

“WHAT?”

“Y-you two are getting so close… i- i can't handle it”

“DEAR, I PROMISE THERE'S NOTHING-”

“please… don't…”

Sans wraps his own arms around her

“DON'T WORRY DEAR… I WON'T…”

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

You're training with sans, and when it's over, you're covered in wounds again, even though it's less than the first times you two have trained

You're used to it by now

You two just walk back inside

“You seem better than last time” papyrus says with a wink

“Of course, it's just a bit more before i beat sans's ass” you grin, attempting to put your hand on sans's shoulder but he moves aside before you can come into contact with him

You raise an eyebrow but shrug it off, you turn back to papyrus and walk towards him as you two talk

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

The houshold (you and papyrus) has decided to have a movie night tonight (and papyrus forced sans to join), but nathalie canceled last minute, said she had things to do

Even better

You're currently sitting on the couch, waiting for the skeleton brothers to join as you go through different movies

Sans is the first to arrive, he sits at the very far edge of the couch, as far away as possible

You glance at him for a second but again shrug this off and keep searching for a movie to watch

“You have any preferences?” You ask sans

He just shakes his head

Since when is he so quiet?

“You good?”

He nods before looking at the tv, indicating he doesn't want to hold a conversation

…

Whatever

papyrus arrives after a little, popcorn in hand, he sits beside you and you two talk about what movie to watch, finally coming to agreement and the movie begins

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

“Oh, hey sans” he just came home from work

He just nods before going upstairs

You look at where he disappeared from with a riased eyebrow

The hell is his problem? He's been so silent recently, and (you've recently noticed) he avoids touching you and doesn't let you toych him either

Has something happened?

Hm…

The best guess would be nathalie telling him something

Eh, you don't really care

Not like you're dying ro touch him or talk to him, he wants to keep boundaries, then you'll let him

Afterall he's a committed man, he's in a relationship, yeah he's not with the best person but he's still in a relationship and while you're not single, you should hold some distance from other women you guess

Even though the fact that nathalie doesn't do the same with men kind of gets on your nerves but it's not like sans is gonna listen or anything

You guess you have to be a bit more careful around him

Don't want another restrain on your relationship with him

Chapter 28

Notes:

Hello everyone, happy valentine!
My single ass has nothing to do though😔😂

"Just letting you know, i will have guests over for tomorrow, so no need to cook nathalie” you say, standing infront of the couches as sans and nathalie sit on one and papyrus on another

Not like nathalie actually cooks anything good

“who are the guests?” papyrus asks absentmindedly as he continues going on his phone

“My friends and mr.hatchet”

“You're having your friends and dad over?!” Nathalie says with a frown “then why aren't we?! We should invite the king and queen plus our friends”

“That's your choice and your own fault that you don't invite them over” you put your hands on your hips

“then we're inviting them for tomorrow!”

“Wha- no, I've already invited my own guests, you can do it on another day”

“The house will already be ready, it's a good opportunity, right sans?”

“I MEAN-”

“sans, please”

He sighs “YEAH…”

“Deciding everything yourselves i see” fuck It, if this fuckers are all dead set on one thing, you can't do much about it “you'll be cooking yourselves, right?”

“Come on just cook some more food” nathalie waves a hand dismissively

“sans, you'll be helping, right?” Papyrus says, now looking up

“YEAH YEAH” he rolls his eyelights

“She can just-” you cut her off

“I can't, now better get to cleaning the fucking house, we'll be having guests tomorrow!”

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

In the end everyone helps in cleaning the house, nathalie and papyrus do slack off but you and sans actually do the work

By the end of the night you two are exhausted and go to sleep almost immediately

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

The next day after coming home from work you and sans get to work, cooking dinner in the kitchen together, he's quite a good cook, watching him now he looks skilled

When the actual work is done you leave the food on the stove and rest, waiting for the guests to arrive

“All done?” Papyrus asks, plopping down on the couch

“Yeah, i must admit, sans here is a good cook” you point back at the skeleton with your thumb

“Yeah, he used to cook all the time when i was a child” papyrus says, seemingly thinking about that time, from the smile on his face and the nostalgia in his face

There's a knock at the door

You look at the clock, you've told the guests to be here at 7, the time right now is 7:00 pm

“I'll get it, it's most likely my d- mr.hatchett” you stand up and go to the door, dad is always on time

You open it and lo and behold, It's him

“Hello” you hug him quickly

“Hello dear” he wraps one arm around you as well

“Welcome, let's go in!” You take his hand and pull him inside and he doesn't disagree until he sees sans and papyrus, that's when he gently takes his hand back

“I'm sure you both already know, but this is mr.hatchett, my general”

“And your dad” papyrus says simply “Why don't you ever call him that?”

“Work policy” you answer simply

“Hello” dad nods at the two and the two greet him back, sans seems to be in work mode and papyrus is just like always

“Are they here yet?” Nathalie says, walking down the stairs

“NOT YET”

Dad looks at you, so you whisper in his ear

“she invited the king and queen and some friends, sorry, couldn't stop her jealous ass” He nods

Another knock

“I'LL TAKE IT” sans walks away

“have there been any problems?”

“No, it's been pretty peaceful, except from… you know” you glance at nathalie which is on her phone

“I see”

Sans walks back with olivia

“Who is that again?” Nathalie asks

“I'm like, 100% sure you know” you smirk, the way she was sending daggers to everyone on the wedding day, she definitely remembers her “but, this is olivia”

“Hello everyone! Hello general”

Everyone greets her back as the two take their seats. You three get to talking, waiting for the others to arrive, or better say you and olivia get to talking and dad just listens

There's another knock and sans again goes to take it, this time he comes back with the queen though

dad stands up, greeting her formally and politely

You and olivia look at eachother and decide to do the same since dad did it

“I remember you, you were at the wedding, correct?” the queen asks olivia

“Yes your majesty, i was one of the bridesmaids”

“You all left the door open!” Chara says, walking inside

“Chara!” You open your arms, chara looks at you before smiling wider and running to hug you

“Sorry for coming in without permission” asgore says politely

“Don't worry, consider this your own house” you wave a dismissive hand, letting go of the child

“You two have gotten close i see” dad says, looking between you and asgore after greeting him

“i can't say we're THAT close, but yeah, we have gotten more familiar” going to a coffeeshop once is not much, is it?

“Why's the door open, punk?” alphys walks in, undyne following after her

“Sans left it open it seems”

“IF THERE'S MORE PEOPLE TO COME, THEN OPENING THE DOOR EVERYTIME WOULD BE FUTILE”

“Since when did YOU get lazy?” Alphys raises an eyebrow

“Must be our influence” papyrus says, standing beside you now

“I AM NOT LAZY!” sans says as everyone takes their seats on the couch again

“The door was open so we just came in” rachel says, walking in with eleanor, a box of chocolate in her hand

She hands it to you after reaching you, you just look at her with a questioning look

“What? You like this type”

“That reminds me!” Olivia says, taking another brand of chocolate from her purse and handing it to you

“You didn't have to” you take it, this time “seriously, don't do this again”

“Since when do you order us around?” Dad says, handing you your favorite chocolate

“You too?” You sigh taking it. It seems everyone knows about your love for chocolate

“You too?” Asgore asks, chuckling, you look at him, confused, so he elaborates

“Chara really loves chocolate as well”

“seriously? Do you want some?”

“No thanks” they are trying to be polite, huh?

“Does anyone?” Everyone shakes their heads or declines so you put the chocolates aside, You can't eat them while everyone watches

“Thank you again” you smile at the closest people you have

You all hear a knock, someone with manners, it appears

“Come in!” You yell so that they'll hear

nabstaton slowly enters, greeting everyone

That leaves charlotte from your side

“So, i was thinking we can watch a movie” you look at your own guests

“y/n, this is extremely disrespectful to just ask us” dad scolds

“I mean… they have their own host”

“Still” he seems stern enough

“Ok… how about we all watch a movie then?”

“that would be so nice, can we watch an animation?” Chara asks

“Dear, not everyone likes-” you cut asgore off

“I'm down with that” you personally love watching animations

“why not?” Papyrus shrugs

Asgore just sighs and shakes his head with a small smile

“Yeah, we can watch some old disney” olivia suggests

“Or some new dreamworks” you suggest after her

“Yeah, have yall seen the new disney?” Rachel says

“Oh yeah, it sucks”

After that, everyone silently agrees to watch an animation for a reason or another as your little group talks about which movie to watch and how disney is past its prime but dreamworks is still going strong

The queen and asgore agree cause chara wants to watch the animation, dad agrees because of you, even though he's not a fan at all, your friends agree either because of you or because they like animations themselves, nabstaton is used to this so nothing new, sans disagrees cause nathalie does but they're outnumbered, alphys and undyne literally watch anime so an animation wouldn't bother them as long as there's a good plot and story

As you are readying the movie charlotte finally makes an appearance

You and sans prepare popcorn and everyone watches the chosen movie silently, nathalie being annoyed during the whole thing

You seat next to chara and you two actually have a lot of fun watching the movie, after it's done, you two give eachother recommendations on what to watch on your free times

Then yall move on to games, the queen, asgore, nathalie and dad sit this one out but you all have a blast while playing games, seeing people mad at others winning or happy that they've won or how their faces fall when they are so close to winning but in the last moments lose either way it is a lot of fun

Then you make some tea and get to gossiping with your friends as everyone else talks with eachother, papyrus listens in on your gossip though. Dad and the queen talk about business and what they'll need to do, chara talks with sans, asgore and nabstaton as the fish/lizard couple talk about their plans

After that it's finally time for dinner, you and sans serve the food and ready the table, like always nathalie doesn't do shit, even papyrus helps every once in awhile but her? Ugh

“You two seem to be getting along” dad says, looking at sans who is now talking with the queen

“it's getting better i guess” you shrug, eating your food

“i see there's a father daughter conversation going on” the queen says ‘jokingly’, but you can see, she actually wants something…

Dad just chuckles slightly

“Well, we haven't had a good conversation in a while” he answers simply

“Isn't she the captain though? I would think that you gave her that position so you'd have a lot of time together”

Is… is that what she thinks?

“The only reason she is the captain is because of her own hard work, i had nothing to do with that decision, i left it to the others”

The queen looks slightly surprised

“you thought i had that position because of the fact that…” are you REALLY his daughter though?

“That she's my daughter?” You look at him, before a warm feeling settles inside of your chest, a smile pulling at your lips

“that's just what everyone believes, sadly”

“I've heard that too!” Chara says “the people in the special force keep saying that too”

You became the captain before changing your last name

You just shrug “let them say what they want”

“Can we not talk about work for one night?” Asgore says, his smile straining as he looks at the queen, she looks down

She still likes asgore, doesn't she?

You look between the two, as everyone keeps eating their food

“how have things been?” The queen asks sans and nathalie

“AMAZING” “like always”

You have a feeling ‘like always’ isn't a good sign

You look at papyrus and even though he's masking it pretty good you can tell he's frustrated, he doesn't like nathalie one bit

“What about with you two?” Alphys asks, looking at you and sans

“Shitty as always” you joke

“Yeah, sans is a pain isn't he?” She laughs

“Definitely” you laugh along

“But you two seem to be civil”

“What is that supposed to mean? It's not like he's my enemy or something” why would you not be civil?

“I thought you'd hate him by now, that's what happens in movies”

“This isn't a movie though, plus it's not HIS fault” you give a side eyed glance to queen toriel before looking at your food

After dinner, alphys and undyne help you and sans take everything away and wash the dishes, or better say alphys and sans help until alphys pulls sans away and you and undyne wash the dishes. she washes, you dry

“have things been rocky with the captain?”

“At the beginning, yes, but it's better now”

“Do you… like him?”

“He's a decent person i guess”

“No, i mean like… like like him”

“Wha- god no” you shake your head, why would she even think that “He's a roommate i have to live with”

“What if he was single?”

“Same answer”

She hums

“Would you like to come out with me and alphys once?” You're not sure… the fish monster is… well fishy, to say the least

“I…” you try to come up with an excuse

“I'm sure it will be fun, Alphys really has started to like you” she stops with washing and leans closer “You're not planning on anything are you?”

What plan? What is she even talking about?

“alphys is not interested”

Oh! She thinks you're going to steal her girlfriend!

You start laughing slightly, making her lean back and look at you with a look of surprise

“Don't worry, I'm straight, plus, i wanna be in a relationship with my SOULMATE. Oh, that reminds me, are you two SOULMATES? You and alphys”

She nods, resuming washing

“Seriously?! Can i see your SOULMATE marks?” You say, quite excitedly, you haven't seen many couples that are SOULMATES before

she blushes, pulling her sleeve up even more, showing a helmet on her arm

“A helmet?”

“Hers is a vaccine, you know… since I'm the royal scientist and she's the captain of the royal guard, also the helmet looks exactly like hers” she says, looking embarrassed but also happy to talk about this

You nod, examining the mark

“I'm happy you've found the right person, are you married?” she nods, making you smile up at her, the couple seem kinda cute… you'll regret this, won't you?

“Also, i would love to come out with you two once”

“amazing”

You two fall silent until your dear spouses come to the kitchen

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

Sans is cleaning the table when alphys pulls him aside

“So, how is your relationship with the punk? What do you think?”

“I CAN TOLERATE HER I GUESS”

“Just that? Don't you like her? At all?”

“OF COURSE NOT! I HAVE AN AMAZING GIRLFRIEND ALREADY!”

Alphys nods, looking at her wife, washing the dishes with sans's

“Has she ever done anything? Any bad things”

Sans shakes his head

“Anything that might suggest she's not to be trusted?”

“NOT REALLY”

Ok then, alphys just wanted to hear that, so she starts walking to the kitchen, again pulling sans with her

“you two need any help?” She asks, making you and her wife look at her

“No, we're already done” you say, drying the last dish as undyne turns the faucet off

“sans, what the hell are you doing? You have guests over! I couldn't be there, at least you should have!” you look at the guests, alphys does the same, finding them all comfortable enough

“that's my fault” alphys doesn't want to ruin you twos relationship now

“at least papyrus is there” undyne points out

“Thank god we at least have him” you say, shaking your head

“Hey, alphys, it's a little personal but can i ask for something?”

what can you possibly want from her?

“Depends on”

You look at sans, most likely wanting him out

“Don't worry about him, you could say we're quite close” alphys smirks, wrapping a hand around sans's shoulder

“Can i see your SOULMATE mark?”

“Why?” Alphys asks, taken aback

“I just wanna see what it looks like, I've never really seen a couples SOULMATE marks” never? Well, it doesn't matter

She pulls her sleeve up, showing the mark on her arm

“Are they always in the same place? Undynes was right there too”

“That's what we thought, but sans's and nathalies are in different places”

“Different?” You look at sans “where's yours?”

“IT'S NONE IF YOUR BUSI-”

“on his rib”

Rib? Damn

Sans looks at alphys with a frown

“Let's just go to the others” you point at the guests

“The punk is right”

You four go to the others and talk for a while until it's time for everyone to leave

You let go of dad and take a step back

“Goodbye” you smile, waving as he walks away

“Goodbye dear”

“See you at work” rachel says, walking after him

“See you!” Your new three friends also leave

After everyone has left, you say goodnight to your ‘roommates’ and go to bed

Chapter 29

Notes:

*Posts this and runs away*

You wake up at 6 am to the sound of your phone going off, on 6 am of a SUNDAY

You groan, opening your eyes slightly before your hand searches around for your phone and fishes it up, you answer the call before putting the phone beside your ear

“Hello?” Your voice comes out groggy and deeper than normal due to just waking up

“Hey, punk! We're on our way, be ready in twenty minutes”

“Ok”

You hang up the call, whatever

You get out of the bed and look around your closet, changing into some casual wear and sitting back on your bed again

You stare blankly at the carpet, not really doing much

…

…

…

Wait

Why did you get ready again?

…

Alphys just said you get ready and you did?! 

Your eyes finally come to focus, your brain’s starting to work as the cogwheels start turning

You pick your phone up and dial her number

“What's up?”

“Hey uh… i think you mistook and called me instead of whoever it is that was your actual goal”

“No, i wanted to call YOU”

“why?”

“We're going out, you've agreed to it a while ago, remember?”

…

She means at that little get together?!

“Alphys, that was a while ago. And today is sunday” you look at the clock “not to mention it's 6 am, maybe you could've warned me yesterday or something, i haven't even agreed to this”

“Too late, we're already too close to turn back, we'll be there in 5 minutes”

“We?”

“Me and undyne”

“alphys… i can't just come with you” like what is she thinking?! It's 6am on your off day, and she's gonna take you out?

“Yeah you can”

“Where do you even think you're gonna take me?!”

“Good question, we'll see what happens”

“You don't even have a plan?”

“Nope, we can just do some training first before deciding on what's next”

“Alphys…”

“Ok punk, gotta go, be ready”

With that she hangs up

Ok, what the actual fuck?

You sigh, massaging your eyes, it's too early for this shit

Not to mention you're too tired to actually do something against this

You stand up and go to the bathroom, do your morning routine and then go downstairs, a blank expression on your face

You go to the kitchen and ready a sandwich when there's a loud, strong knock on the door

Definitely alphys

You go to the door and open it, an arm immediately wraps around your shoulder

“Hey punk! Long time no see”

“It's been like three weeks”

“Long time!” She laughs, walking inside

Undyne waves her hand at you

“Hello undyne” you sigh

“Hello, are you well? I hope alphys hasn't been giving you too much trouble”

You shrug “tolerable” you invite her inside and she accepts, she goes and joins her wife on the couch

You close the door and go to the kitchen, take your sandwich before joining them

“So, where are we going?”

“First, we'll go on a walk, a walk to the training area of the royal guard”

“The royal guard?!” Where is she taking you?!

“I SEE YOU'RE ALREADY HERE” sans walks down the stairs

“Hey! Guess who we're bringing today” alphys grins, nodding towards you

Sans looks at you, stopping dead in his tracks

“WHAT?!”

“i wanna see what she's capable of!”

“You could just come and see that during the training between the special force and royal guard”

“I was busy then” she shrugs

“WE CAN'T TAKE A HUMAN THERE”

“I've already asked the queen, it's good”

“You asked the queen?”

“Yep” her grin widens

Ok this is something, you're going to the embassy? You've never been there before

The embassy is also the royal guard's headquarters

Sans still looks against the idea

“Ok losers, lets go” she stands up, undyne doing the same

“WHY IS SHE HERE?” sans looks at undyne questioningly

“I would love to watch” she answers

“Let's go!” Alphys takes your hand and starts running outside, pulling you with her

“Hey!”

You have no choice but to follow. Sans sighs, before starting to walk outside with undyne

Alphys car is in your parking lot BUT for some reason she makes you walk (and sometimes run) all the way to the embassy

You breath heavily as you double over and put your arms on your knees, trying to catch your breath

Alphys laughs before hitting your back

“Don't be so lazy! You're the captain of the special force!”

“I'm still a human dammit” you say, standing straight as you finally are able to pull through the burning in your lungs

She laughs again as you all walk inside

You look around, there's not even one human here, all monsters that start staring you down

You don't pay them much mind and just keep walking

The building is quite large

you don't know where to go so you just follow alphys and the others

They make their way to an elevator and go in so you follow, then they hit a random button and the doors close

When the elevator doors open again they step out so you follow, you are greeted with a bunch of monsters, fighting eachother or attacking dummies and punching bags

“You ready for some combat punk?” Alphys grins, taking her shirt off to reveal she was wearing compression clothing under her normal clothes

“I mean, i don't have extra clothes with me” you bring up that excuse, you have sport bra on so you can just take your shirt off but let's be honest, you don't want to train on your one off day

“Just take your shirt off”

“And be with just a bra? No thank you”

“Noones gonna look,” she leans closer and whispers “they think you're sans's wife, i don't think they'll have the balls to try anything”

“Still”

“Just take it off” she rolls her eyes

“No”

“You don't want to train, do you?” undyne observes

“SO YOU'RE JUST TOO LAZY HUH?”

“whatever, yeah, yeah” you say, sounding annoyed

“Come on, you've come all the way here”

“This is my off day and I'm not wasting it”

“Maybe you'll learn something useful?” undyne tries

“No thanks”

The elevators doors open and the queen walks out

“Oh, there you are captain” she says, looking at you

“Hello your majesty” your three companions bow as you just nod

“I was surprised when i heard you were going to join the training today, but it's always a welcome change”

“Actually i-”

“Mr.hatchett must be proud for having such agents, training even on the days they're off work”

That shuts you up and you can hear alphys laughing quietly behind you

“Now, i won't take your time, please feel comfortable”

You look at alphys from the corner of your eyes, looking at her covering her mouth as it's obvious she is trying to hold her laughter in

You just sigh

“I'll get you later” you mutter to her before taking your shirt off and putting it on a rack and stretching

“Ok, what the hell do you expect me to do?”

“Fight” alphys says, making an axe with her magic and attacking you

Your eyes widen slightly but you take a step to the side as a reflex and dodge the attack

You narrow your eyes before making a scythe with your own magic

“A scythe? You and sans actually do compliment eachother” she grins, attacking you and you two get to fighting

“Not really”

“Oh, but he uses a scythe too” yeah you know, you've been cut with it countless times

“That's the only thing we share”

“you do have things in common and even if you didn't, opposites attract eachother” she keeps grinning as she attacks you, if you haven't trained with sans before, you were doomed right now, and infront of the queen too

Damn you're happy you trained with him, losing infront of the queen? dads reputation would be fucked!

“I rather think of him as ‘that annoying person that lives with me’” you grin yourself

“He IS annoying sometimes” she agrees

The fight goes on and ends without a winner or an injured, since none of you was actually fighting with full force

It was just a friendly combat even though… alphys is really fast, no wonder she's the captain

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

You see a water bottle enter your vision

Looking up, you see undyne holding it out for you

You take it, thanking her as she sits down

“you were amazing out there” she compliments

“I mean, compared to those two… not really” you chuckle to hide how frustrated you actually are about that fact as you look at sans and alphys who are still training, both with punching bags, after that they'll have a friendly combat it seems

“They are monsters, of course they have more stamina”

Being a human kinda sucks in this context

You shrug, watching them while you open the water bottles lid

“Maybe you can be as strong as they are, I'm working on a little something that will make humans stronger”

“What?” You raise an eyebrow, for some reason you have a bad feeling about that

“I'm working on something that will make humans stronger”

“Why even bother?”

“I'm quite curious about humans” she shrugs “would you like to try it out?” that little sadistic look again…

“no thanks”

“Are you sure?”

“Yes”

She shrugs and looks ahead at her wife and her skeleton friend training, the two are now fighting eachother

You look at the two, observing them

They are fast, that's for sure and there isn't even one place where their guard is not up

It kinda makes you jealous, the speed and power are what is bothering you the most

They are so much better at those just because they're monsters…

After the two are done alphys walks towards you while sans goes in another direction

“Let's go take a shower, then we'll go out”

“I don't know, i-” she cuts you off and pulls you with her

There are two areas, one for men one for women

you take a small shower and go out, thank god they have clean towels here

You wear your clothes and go out of the training area

“Ok, what's next? We going home?”

“no, i have a better plan” alphys grins

She won't tell you what the plan is though

You all go down with the elevator and go outside

Sans goes back home while you go with alphys and undyne

Turns out, the destination is a coffeeshop

“Why are we here?”

“What better place to have a nice chat?” undyne says

“And also eat something after workout?”

Makes sense

You all go in and take a seat

“Is this place monster run?”

“Why? You don't like that?”

“No, just some monster run businesses don't like humans customers”

“Seriously?” Undyne asks, like it's the first time she has heard about this

“Yep, saw someone getting thrown out because they were a human” poor girl, must've felt so bad

The two don't say anything about that anymore and seem to be thinking

“What can i get for you?” the waitress asks with a smile

The two order and the waitress turns to you, her smile straining

Here we go

You raise an eyebrow and order a hot drink

She nods and walks away

You're not going to eat the treat… with the look she gave you, she's definitely gonna do something to it

“So, punk, have you ever thought of dating while in the marriage?” She says that quietly to make sure others won't hear

“If i find my SOULMATE, then why not?”

“You have any ideas who it might be?”

“Not really”

“What's your mark?” Undyne joins the conversation

“A small, cartoony bone, maybe he's a dog person”

The two look at you for a few seconds before looking at eachother and then back at you

“Or maybe it's a skeleton?”

…

What?

You stare at the two with a blank expression

you've never even thought about that yourself until the king mentioned it

“I don't think so, sans already has a SOULMATE, and papyrus's mark is a computer, i don't see how that's related to me, at all”

“But still, a bone? A skeleton is the first thing that comes to mind” undyne points out

“I agree, plus, i feel like maybe nathalie and sans aren't THAT compatible, maybe it was a mistake?”

“Why would you say that”

“Well” she leans back, looking a little uncomfortable “i mean i know sans better than others and nathalies personality… doesn't match his, at all”

“They seem ok to me” sans likes to spoil, nathalie likes to be spoiled, good enough, right?

“You don't know sans”

“I've been living with him for awhile now, i think i do”

“Look, all I'm saying is that he acts differently infront of people”

Differently? Yeah, you two are not that close for him to act comfortably you guess

“But still, him? My SOULMATE? Yeah no”

The waitress comes back with your orders and you catch the smallest of smirks on her face as she puts your order down

Hm…

“Where's your mark?” undyne asks 

“Uh… on my chest”

The two look at eachother again

“Look, a bone doesn't necessarily mean skeleton, maybe he's a dog person, maybe it's, i don't know, a dog monster for example”

“I guess that makes sense too” alphys nods, already started with her order

You look down at yours but don't even touch it, you can smell something in it though

“Do you also smell something on this?” You nod at the drink

The two look at eachother before alphys picks it up and smells it

“Yeah, there's… something in it”

You have watched enough movies

You stand up and go to the waitress, undyne and alphys look confused and curious on what you're going to do

“You think it's funny?” you ask with a raised eyebrow

“What ma'am?” She's acting innocent huh?

“Maybe spitting in other people's drinks? I can smell the stench from all the way over here”

“I don't know what you're talking about ma'am” she says with her stupid smile still intact

“Yeah, but when i shut this places down, then you'll realize what I'm talking about” racism is a big crime nowadays, especially coming from a monster “Also, you can easily go to jail for a few months for racism”

You can see other people looking and some even recording what's going on

“You spit in all of your human customers drinks?”

You hear someone spitting their drink out

“I think you have mistaken ma'am”

“Where's the manager? I wanna see the camera footages”

She seems to be slightly panicking now

“Ma'am, please calm down, i don't know what you're talking about”

“Where's the manager?”

“Ma'am-”

“The manager”

“What's going on here?” Some monster walks towards you two

“I would like to talk with the manager”

“I am the manager” she sighs, looking exhausted, poor thing most likely thinks you're a racist or something

“Sorry to bother you, but i believe your worker has messed with my drink, can we please have a look at the cameras? That can be a lot of problem for your coffeeshop”

“Messed?” she looks at the waitress

“Just look at the footages”

She stares a little more before nodding

You walk to her office as well

“Where are you going?!” Alphys asks

“I'll be back, please wait a little”

You watch the footages and lo and behold, you were right

The managers jaw drops as she looks More and sees she does that to every human customers order

“I am so sorry, i- please don't-”

“Don't worry, i won't do anything but the other customers might”

You two go outside and you enjoy the waitress getting yelled at and fired as you sip on the new free drink they gave you

“Ok, THAT was something” alphys says, watching the waitress go out of the coffeeshop with her head held down

“Just saved a business” you joke

“I was expecting more… racism from you” undyne says

“You seriously thought I'm a racist?”

The two don't say anything

“Why?”

“I've never seen a human genuinely not be racist” alphys answers

“Same”

“I'm sure you have, you just didn't believe them”

The two go silent again

“Anyways, today was fun, thanks” it was, especially watching the waitress getting what she deserved

“thanks for coming”

You three get up and for some reason they walk with you to your house and you chat about random things on the way

“Again, thanks”

The two nod

“We can do it again, if you want” alphys says

“Yeah why not?” The two are fun enough, spending time with them doesn't sound bad

Alphys hands you a card

“My number”

You enter it in your phone and send her a message, you hear a notification

“And that's mine” you say, putting your phone back into your pocket

“Can you send me undyne's number too?” you look at the tall fish monster

She blushes and looks surprised

“You want my number?” you nod, maybe it comes in handy, she doesn't seem as bad as you originally thought

After saying goodbyes, you part ways and you go inside

You find papyrus in the kitchen, eating dinner with the other two

“Hey” you say, passing by the kitchen

“Hey” papyrus waves as you go up the stairs

You have recently ate so you're a little too full for that

Chapter 30

Notes:

Guess who's updating

you are working when you receive a message from no other than the king himself, or as he likes to be referred to, asgore

asgore: hello miss y/n, me and dad want to invite you over! Dad will send you the location!

Today?... eh, why not, but it must be after your shift

You: i would love to join, but it has to be after 6, I'm at work until then

Asgore: ok!

You put your phone aside and get back to work

In the end they send you the address and you go straight to their house rather than your own, you don't want to be late

You knock on their door and after waiting for a few seconds the door opens. You are greeted by asgore and chara behind him

“Hello” you greet with a polite smile

“Hello, little one”

“Hello miss y/n! You actually came!” Chara hugs you for a short second before letting you go

“Of course” you smile down at them, they're quite cute if you say so yourself “thank you for inviting me” you tell asgore and he nods at you before standing aside to let you in

You walk inside and he closes the door behind you

The house isn't small, it isn't a mansion but it's not small either, with a comforting and welcoming atmosphere

It definitely feels like a nice home

“Please feel at home”

“Thank you” you give a small polite smile as you take a seat on the couch

“Did you come here from work?”

“How did you know?”

“You're still in uniform” he offers you a cold drink

“Thank you” you take the drink “and yes, i didn't want to be late”

“You could have took a rest, it's not good for your health” he takes a seat himself and chara sits on his leg

“one day won't really do anything”

“How is everything going?”

“Just like always”

“Miss y/n I'm so happy you could make it, me and dad will be making dads special tea and bake a cake!”

“Can i help?” you look at asgore

“If you want to”

This should be fun

You talk for a while, before moving to the kitchen to bake and make tea

It takes a few hours but it's fun, asgore is pleasant to be around, same with chara, it's a good time

In the end, you three sit at the dining table with a plate of cake and a cup of tea infront of you

You try a bit if the cake

“It turned out so good” you and chara say at the same time

You two look at eachother before giggling, the king also chuckles

“I'm happy you two like it” he smiles

“So, how has life been recently?” You ask

“Honestly, the same it has ever been”

“Same” you nod “even though sans has been opening up slightly more, at least he's not on my ass every minute of the day”

“You two still are not getting along?”

“Not as well as a married couple should, obviously, but enough as roommates”

“That is better than nothing”

“Definitely”

“sansy is actually so nice! He looks a little scary but he's not at all a bad person!” Chara says, putting a piece of cake in their mouth

You smile at the small child, it seems that sans has at least left a good impression on them

“What do you think?” You look at asgore

“Well… he's…” he glances at chara, not wanting to say something bad about others infront of them “intense sometimes, i can't deny that he's amazing in his job but i personally am more comfortable with his brother”

“I know, papyrus is amazing” you agree with a small chuckle “i get along with him pretty well actually”

“Yeah, he's the type of person who can get along with a lot of people”

You nod in agreement

The conversation goes on as you all enjoy your treats which taste amazing by the way

You don't even realize that you've spend HOURS in their house, just talking and enjoying their company

By the time you come to your senses it's already past midnight

“Oh my god, I'm so sorry, i didn't notice the time” you say apologetically, they probably should have been asleep by now but didn't want to tell you to leave

The king looks at the clock

“stars… i didn't even notice the time pass”

You stand up

“I better get going, sorry for keeping you awake”

“Oh no, it was an incredibly enjoyable time, thank you for accepting our invite” he smiles, also standing up, chara does the same

You all move to the door

“It would be an honor if you visited again”

“I can definitely say the same, please drop by at times” you smile at them, these two are really friendly and you like them more than you'd like to admit

First chara, with their energetic personality and childish optimism which is sweet to see in a person

And then asgore, he's a kind man, calm and an amazing listener

Visiting them again is indefinitely tempting

After the goodbyes and a little more conversation, you finally get into your car and drive back home

Chapter 31

Notes:

😈

"Nine” You say, looking at the sudoku sans is solving from over his shoulders

He looks at you with a small frown

“What?”

“HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN LOOKING?”

“for a while” you shrug

You're currently sitting in the hallway of the royal guard's headquarters aka the embassy

Mr.hatchett had something to do here so you followed since you had no more work to do and were getting bored

Now he is currently talking with the queen as you sit in the hallway with sans (who is on break)

“What are you nerds doing?” Alphys asks, sitting beside you

“Solving sudoku”

“As i said, nerds”

“Captain” you hear the queens voice, which makes sans sit more upright and put the sudoku aside before standing up completely

“YES, YOUR MAJESTY?”

“we have some files to look over at the special force” dad starts as the two walk towards you three

“And since I'll be gone, i want you two to keep an eye on everything” the queen says

Seems like you're going then, you start standing up

“Y/n can stay and help as well”

You stop mid stand up, looking at him with a ‘wtf’ Look

“I BELIEVE WE CAN DO THINGS OURSELVES, BUT THANK YOU FOR YOUR KIND OFFER”

“Actually, that would be delightful” the queen nods

“What?!” “WHAT?!”

“Then it's settled, y/n, you stay here and help incase anything happens” dad says before the two start walking away

“Wait-” they either don't hear or ignore you as they get in the elevator and leave

What the hell?

You hear sans sigh, running a hand on his face

what the hell are you even supposed to do?

You turn around finally, facing sans

“So… is there something? That i can help with?”

“NO” he starts walking away

“Hey wait a goddamn second!” you run after him

“See you losers later” alphys says, trying not to laugh at your misery

“You can't just leave me here! I don't even know here that well!”

Sans sighs again, coming to a stop infront of a door, the door has a nameplate

‘SERIF’

ok, then this is his office

He turns towards you

“THERE'S NOTHING YOU CAN DO, WHY NOT LEAVE?”

“you know damn well i can't, i was ordered to stay”

He clicks his tongue with an annoyed expression

“THEN DON'T GET ON MY NERVES AND LET ME WORK AT LEAST” he opens the door and goes in, leaving it open, most likely for you to go in

so you do

You go inside, the office is so tidy it's gonna give you a headache

You close the door behind you and go in, looking around the place as sans just sits at his desk and starts with his work

After a while you settle on a chair and go on your phone

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

you're bored, like really bored

You stand up, stretching, your bones popping in their right places as you sigh

“I'm bored”

“WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO ABOUT THAT” sans doesn't even look up at you and continues on with his work

You walk towards his desk, jumping and sitting on it as you inspect the paper he's working on

He frowns, finally looking up at you

“CAN YOU GET OFF MY DESK?”

“Why?”

“ISN'T THE REASON OBVIOUS?”

“not really, I'm not that heavy for the desk to break”

“I DON'T WANT SOMEONE ON MY DAMN DESK”

“Why?” At this point, you just wanna get on his nerves

“BECAUSE I DON'T WANT IT, NOW GET DOWN”

You move the papers aside, sitting right infront of him and leaning forward

“what if i don't?” you smirk and his frown deepens

The door suddenly opens, alphys bursting in

“Hey ne-” she stops as you turn around and sans leans sideways to look at the intruder

There's someone behind alphys, looking in with semi-wide eyes

“It appears we are uh… intruding” the guys says, a small blush on his face as he looks at you

“No, actually, come right in” you say moving aside on the desk so that you're not infront of sans anymore

Alphys just smirks at you two but specifically sans

“As I was saying, this guy has a lead on that band we're after, but I'm not in the mood of listening, it's your problem now” alphys says, pushing the guy in, and leaving herself, closing the door behind her

The guy slowly moves forward, sitting on a chair infront of sans's desk as he looks at you two with a small smile

Sans is clenching his fists under the desk in his lap which you can clearly see but is keeping face as he looks at the guy

The guy, unbeknownst to you and sans both, sees you looking at sans's lap and his blush gets slightly more apparent but he knows you two are married so he thinks nothing of it

“Sorry for disturbing you at such a time” he says sheepishly

“THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO PROBLEM, AND YOU AREN'T DISTURBING ANYTHING”

You just keep sitting there, looking between the two as they talk, swaying your legs slightly

“SO, PLEASE GO AHEAD” sans brings out a blank paper, and picks up a pen, waiting for the guy to start talking

And he does

He starts talking about locations and some suspicious things he has seen in his neighborhood

Sans takes note of everything and after a while, the guy is done, sans thanks him as he leaves, the moment the door is closed, you hear a click, indicating the door is locked

Sans grits his teeth and stands up, frowning at you

“WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM?!”

“What? You just remembered?” You smirk, he couldn't do anything before this due to the guy being in the room, you didn't think he'd still be mad though

He puts his hands on either side of you, leaning way too close for comfort with a deep glare, his eyelights glowing brighter than you've ever seen them, your smirk falls slightly as you lean back a bit but he follows suit

“DON'T EVER, DO THAT SHIT AGAIN”

“Jeez, ok, why are you-”

“I'M SERIOUS” his eyes narrow

“ok, ok, why you being so mad about it…” You ask, closing in on yourself slightly

He looks mad intimidating right now, making you feel slightly nervous

He stares at you a bit more before leaning back

“I'LL BE GOING ON A MISSION, DON'T GET IN TROUBLE” he starts walking towards the door

“Wait! Can i come along?” you don't wanna stay here alone!

“NO”

He can't make you stay here!

“I'll follow along eitherway even if-”

He turns his face around with a sharp glare

hey! Get a hold on yourself

“Even if you say no” you say, your face serious

Yeah he got you by surprise for a few minutes there, but you're not gonna listen to everything he says

“I SWEAR IF YOU GET IN MY WAY…” he turns around again and walks out

That's a yes, right?

You jump off the desk, quickly getting out of the office and following after sans

You hear whispers and murmurs as you two walk together

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

You follow sans as he calls in his team, goes to the location the guy has said, arrests the band and comes back, helping here and there

You are now back at the embassy, in the cafeteria, choosing what you want to eat

After getting your food you go and sit with sans and alphys, you sit beside sans as alphys sits opposite of you two

you and alphys joke around as you eat, laughing and talking while sans sits there silently, just eating his food

You look down at your food as you are ready for the next bite when suddenly feel food hitting your face

You look up, seeing alphys sneakering, you throw the spoonful of food you have in your hand like a cannon and it lands on her snout

She smirks evilly, picking up her whole tray

Your and sans's eyes (eyesockets in his case) both widen

“WAI-!” “Wai-!” You both start at the same time but it's too late as she throws the whole thing towards you, before you can stop it, it hits you, thankfully just on your uniform and not your face or hair

You look down as the tray falls on your lap, food smeared all over your uniform

You look at her with an annoyed expression

“Oops” she says but she's still laughing

You don't think you can wipe the food off, you better stop it from reaching your bra at least

You unbutton your uniform before taking it off to save your skin and bra from the food that was sure to pass your uniform

You hear a sigh from sans before he takes his own uniform off and drapes it on your shoulder

You look at him with surprise but he doesn't say anything and just gets back to his food, sitting there, topless

You thank him, pushing your arms in the sleeves and buttoning the uniform up, it's a bit loose but it's better than sitting here without a top

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

Sans unlocks the door to the house and keeps it open for you, you thank him before going in, he follows after you before closing the door

“Is there something i need to know?” Papyrus smirks as he leans against the wall, wiggling his bonebrows

“What?” You tilt your head in confusion

“I don't know, you come home together with you wearing sans's uniform, seems kind of fishy to me” his smirk widens

“ALPHYS POUR HER FOOD ON HER, I JUST GAVE HER MY UNIFORM SO THAT SHE DIDN'T HAVE TO BE TOPLESS”

“Oh, you didn't want others seeing your wife topless?”

Sans looks at his brother with an unimpressed expression

“Well I'm grateful nonetheless, thank you” you smile at the older brother “I'll wash it and it will be ready for your tomorrows shift, don't worry” you say walking up the stairs

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

The queen and mr.hatchett both look at eachother, both thinking the same thing

‘This was a success’

People in the royal guard keep talking about the things they have seen from you and sans today

It appears that their plan to force you two together has worked perfectly

Chapter 32

Sans is currently at work, lunch hour to be more specific, he's going to the cafeteria when

“Captain!” One of the personnels runs towards him, something in her hand

Sans stops and turns around with a questioning look “here, they said it was for you” they hand him a wrapped item

“FROM WHO?”

“I'm not sure, sir”

“WHAT DO YOU MEAN, ‘YOU'RE NOT SURE’?”

“it was a monster i have never seen but they said it's important”

Sans examines the item before taking it. He slowly unwraps it as alphys looks at it curiously, upon unwrapping, sans is presented with a lunchbox, with a note on top

The two captains look at eachother before sans picks the note up and reads it

“HEY DARLING, JUST THOUGHT MAYBE YOU WOULD WANT SOME HOMEMADE MEAL INSTEAD, WITH LOTS OF LOVE, Y/N”

He hears the personnel aw

The heck? There's no way you would have done this… or is there? Are you trying to get close to him? But he has set his boundaries! This is ridiculous

“I thought…” alphys trails off

What should he do? Should he act excited and touched? Yeah he should

He glances around quickly, seeing some monsters looking at him

He slightly, without others noticing, nudges alphys before smiling at the note the best smile he can muster

“Such a thoughtful wife you have there” alphys seems to understand and plays along

“EXACTLY”

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

You are jolted awake by sans bursting through the door violently, huh, you must have fallen asleep on the couch after work

You yawn, looking at him with an annoyed stare but before you can say anything, he starts

He walks towards you angrily 

“WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?!” he holds something up, it looks like a… lunchbox?

“what the hell is that?”

“YOU TELL ME!” He slams a piece of paper on the table infront of you

You eye him before picking it up

What the hell is wrong with him?

You read the note and-

What the fuck

‘Hey darling, just thought maybe you would want some homemade meal instead, with lots of love, y/n’

You scrunch your face up as you read it

“What the hell is this?”

“THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT I'M ASKING YOU”

“i have no idea” you say blankly, what? He thinks you are gonna send him lunch? Well he's wrong

“WHAT IS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN? YOU SENT IT!”

“I did no such thing”

“THEN WHO DID?!”

“it was me” you hear a familiar voice and look at the door to see the queen standing there

“WHAT, WHY?!” “with my name?”

“Please calm down, both of you. Everyone is now talking about this. How you have cooked for sans like that and sent him lunch, and it's working wonders!”

“So this was another way of making people believe we're in love, ok, got it” you lean back again “but please don't do that again”

“Actually I'm here to ask you to do something similar” she walks in, closing the door behind her and sitting on a couch

You stare at her for a while

…

What?

You frown subconsciously, why would you even?

“I want sans to start bringing his own meal for a while, then one day, he will ‘miss’ it at home and i want you to take it for him”

“With all due respect, no”

“But this will be extremely helpful”

“I am not wasting my own lunch hour to bring sans his food, what do i look like? A loving wife?” You say with an annoyed tone

This is stupid, why waste your time on that?

“You have already agreed to this when you agreed to the marriage, this is an order” she says sternly

“no”

She looks taken aback that you said no to her

She looks at sans with a pointed look

He doesn't have a choice but to convince you

“IT'S JUST ONCE”

“no”

“IT WON'T TAKE LONG”

“nope”

“COME ON”

“no”

“THE QUEEN IS ORDERING THIS!”

you just shrug

He sighs

“YOU OWE ME A FAVOR REMEMBER?”

He's gonna use that?!

“And you're gonna use it on this?”

He sighs again

“IS THERE ANOTHER CHOICE?” He sounds annoyed

“I guess not” you sigh as well, you did promise to do him the favor, whatever it was, honestly? It could be worse “I'll do it” you nod

The queen looks between you two before nodding

“Thank you two for your agreement” she nods at you two “but that wasn't everything i came here for, i wanted to know about how things are going between you two”

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

for the next few days sans takes his own food to work

You yawn, standing up from your bed, today is the day you work from home so you're currently home

You go to the bathroom, walk downstairs, go to the kitchen and ready something to eat, you're STARVING

As you're biting on your food your eyes land on sans's lunchbox, wait, today was the day you were supposed to take it for him?! Why did noone tell you?!

You look at the clock, ok, thank god, it's not late yet, if you get ready right now you will make it on time

You eat the rest of your food quickly before running upstairs and getting ready

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

Sans is walking to lunch with alphys when he suddenly remembers he has left his lunch at home

Dang it! Nathalie called him and he forgot about the damn box, it seems he needs to eat something from the cafeteria, the streak is ending it seems

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

You pick the box up and fast walk towards your car, get in and drive to sans's working place

You tap your thumb on the wheel in slight stress, they could have warned you! Why didn't they tell you this was the day?!

You finally reach your destination and get off your car, walk to the building and go to the receptionist's desk where there are two monsters doing their job

“Hello” you say urgently

She looks up from the papers

“Hello, ma'am, how can i help you?”

“Is sans here?”

“The captain, is currently on break, do you want me to schedule a meeting?”

“No, i just wanna give him this” you hold the wrapped lunchbox up

“Sadly, there are no visits at the-” she's cut off by her coworker

“This is his wife” he whisper yells, nudging the first receptionist aside and standing infront of you

“Hello ma'am, sorry for the inconvenience, the captain is currently on the 7th floor, or i can call him here if you want”

“No, thanks, I'll go myself, thank you” you walk towards the elevator 

“Wait! It needs an access card!” The receptionist holds a card up

You turn around, take it, thank him and finally go to the elevator 

You go straight to the 7th floor and look around, seeing sans and alphys at the head of the cafeteria, it seems he's getting food from there

He's going too deep in his acting, isn't he?

“Sans!” You run towards him, waving your hand “sans!” You repeat louder. He finally turns around with a small frown that turns into surprise when he sees you running towards him

Monsters look at you as you run towards your ‘husband’

you finally reach him, ok, it's acting time

“You left your lunch at home, thought i bring it for you” you hold it out with a smile

He looks surprised before coming to his senses

Why is he surprised though?

“YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO DEAR, THANK YOU” he takes it, putting a kiss on your cheek

“You're welcome, how has work been so far?”

“LIKE ALWAYS”

“Hey punk, is there something I need to know?” alphys smirks

“Not really” you try to keep your smile, not again, she always acts like you and sans would ever be more than roommates

“Are you sure?”

“Positive” you nod

“SHOULDN'T YOU BE AT WORK DEAR?”

“nah, I'm working at home today, but i should get going, I'm already behind on the paperwork” you take his hand, put a kiss on his cheek, hug him then step away

“see you at home” You smile sweetly at him and walk away, you can hear whispering as you pass through

Yes, now that is some good acting

You highfive yourself mentally and get in the elevator

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

Sans stares as you leave, trying not to show his shock, he has never seen such affection before, even if it's fake

Alphys nudges him with her elbow and smirks

He rolls his eyes and goes to sit down, he can hear people muttering about him and you but just gets to his food

It was accidental but it seems queens plan has worked

Even though it wasn't supposed to be today, but you most likely didn't know that and just thought it's today…

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

You lay on the couch on your stomach, doing the last of the paperwork when sans walks in

You look up, finally he's home

“Couldn't you have warned me it's today?!” you frown at him

“IT WASN'T” he says calmly

“What?”

“IT WASN'T TODAY, I REALLY LEFT MY LUNCH” he says, like it's the hardest thing to admit

“Wait, so i didn't need to- are you serious? That's still counts as your favor though, don't think I'll-”

“I KNOW, OK” he rolls his eyelights and takes a seat

“Just thought I'd make that clear” you go back to doing your work and typing on your laptop

Sans doesn't say anything either, what you don't notice though is how he stares at you for a little before going upstairs to his room

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

“You two did amazing! The whole royal guard is talking about this!” The queen says, looking delighted “As reward what do you think of a vacation? You two have been doing amazing this far, so it's earned”

“Vacation?” You ask, for once actually liking what the queen is saying

“Yes, to your chosen destination”

“WE TWO? TOGETHER?” sans seems uncomfortable and a little worried

"you can take papyrus and nathalie as well if you want”

That seems to calm him down

“How long?”

“Sadly, not for more than a few days, the captain is needed in the royal guard”

“I'm down, where are we going again?” you look at sans

“I DON'T KNOW”

“we gotta ask papyrus too, we need to talk it seems” the queen nods

“I'll ask the answer from the captain, now i need to go” she stands up

“Of course” you and sans do the same, sans escorts the queen out the door

Ok, a little house meeting is in order then

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

“How about the beach?” papyrus suggests

“what, no we're not going to a simple beach, i think we should go to another country or something” nathalie counters

“We're not leaving the country, it's just a small vacation, a few days is all” you wave a hand “I'm down for the beach”

“Sans!” She looks at sans like he can do anything

“SORRY DEAR, BUT SHE'S RIGHT, IT'S JUST A FEW DAYS”

Nathalie frown, standing up and leaving

“NATHALIE!” Sans stands up, going after her

You and papyrus look at eachother with unimpressed expressions

“The beach?” he asks

“Yeah, the beach it is”

Chapter 33

"Is everything ready?” You ask, putting your luggage in sans's trunk

“Yep” papyrus says, doing the same

You two go to the car and sit at the back, sans and nathalie sit at the front seats

You've decided that the back seat is gonna be more comfortable since one, you don't have to be next to sans, and two, there's more space and the bonus is that you're next to papyrus who is either gonna sleep or you assume is gonna be a fun fellow traveler

he yawns as sans turns the car on

“already?” You raise an eyebrow

“Yeah” he says, trying to get comfortable

“Same” you grin

It is currently 7 am, and you wouldn't hate some sleep, dad made you do a LOT of paperwork to make up for the time you're taking off

Sans pulls out of parking and starts on the way

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

You slowly stir, opening your eyes slowly, you look around, finding out that you have certainly fallen asleep

You're laying on the seat. Your head on papyrus's lap as he sleeps in a seated position

You slowly sit up, your back hurting slightly due to the not so comfortable seats and your position, not to mention the fact that you were most likely in the same position for a long while

“Where are we?” You ask, your voice slightly groggy

“ABOUT AN HOUR AWAY FROM THE DESTINATION”

The beach you've chosen is pretty far from your living place so an hour means you've been on the way for a good while now

You nod, yawning and stretching as best as you can in the car

As you pass a bump, papyrus jolts awake, his eyelight coming to life suddenly as he searches around, tensing up before he starts to calm down

“You good?” You raise an eyebrow

“Yeah, especially now that I've seen you” he winks playfully

You just laugh, shaking your head

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

So this is where you'll be staying at

You stand infront of the rather big villa as sans takes the luggages out of the car

You are about to take it when it glows purple and flies away

Papyrus just walks as your luggage and his own fly beside him

You smile thanking him as you two walk in together

For the rest of the day, yall just stay in the villa, eating dinner and picking a room, readying things for the next day before sleep

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

The next day, you are awakened by nothing, you wake up on your own and for some reason you are FILLED with energy

Time for the beach!

You quickly, change into your swimming suit, get what you need before going downstairs, seeing the others are also awake

Sans is making breakfast as nathalie sits on a counter, talking with him and papyrus is half asleep on the couch

Ooh… right, breakfast

You hear a whistle

“Well someone's excited” you hear papyrus, looking at you with a lazy expression, completed with a smile

“I guess i got a little too carried away” you chuckle, putting your things aside

“Or maybe you just want attention” you hear nathalie say

“We're on vacation, I'm not gonna ruin my off days listening to your accusations” you just have to ignore her

Attention? Come on, who's attention? Sans's? What would you want it for?

You go sit on the couch, going on your phone as papyrus dozes off

Yall eat breakfast and soon enough, you're at the beach

You take a breath, the weather is as good as it gets, a soft breeze blowing as the sun shines

You spread your blanket out before sitting down, you bring your sunscreen out and start applying it to your body, getting some help from papyrus

You finally lay down, sighing in delight with your hands behind your head

“Nice right?” 

You look at papyrus, in a similar position on his own blanket next to you

“Right” you completely agree, this is nice

You look at the beach a little, noticing sans and nathalie walking together and talking, it's just nathalie who talks though

You decide to just close your eyes and relax, this vacation was a good idea on the queen's part

Chapter 34

Notes:

My finals have begun, one was yesterday, i have one tomorrow and so on, wish me luck please!😭

You stare at your phone blankly

Even now

On this vacation

The queen is STILL not letting go!

The fuck you mean ‘make sure to have a walk on the beach together with sans’?!

And even worse

'make sure to also spend time together in the sea’?!

She's really getting on your nerves

Sans comes to the living room, looking at his phone with a frown

“So you got a text too?”

He looks up at you before nodding

“What text?” Papyrus asks, coming downstairs and plopping down on the couch next to you

“The queen wants us to go to the sea together”

“Oooh, she actually knows her stuff” he laughs laying down with his head on your lap

“Eh, it's annoying honestly, and she wants us to have a walk along the beach too”

Nathalie walks in, looking not happy about that

“Well, someone better not get any funny ideas” she says, standing near sans and clinging into his arms

“Hey, if i wanted to fuck a skeleton, i have one right here” you point down at papyrus

“I confirm” he says

Sans looks at you two disapprovingly

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

You and sans are now walking along the beach, you are annoyed as fuck, instead of relaxing you have to walk

Ugh

And sans has a hand around your waist which is again something the queen asked you two to do

You look around, your eyes landing on the ground, the wet sand

You suddenly get an idea in your head

You come to a stop and lean down

Sans looks at you questioningly, you pick a handful of the sand up and throw in his face

It seems some of it gets in his mouth as he starts spitting them out before wiping the sand off and looking at you with a frown

You just laugh before turning around and running away towards the water

Sans picks some sand up with his magic

You yelp as it hits you in the back of the head and since you're running in the water, you lose your balance, falling in the water

You have another idea

You go motionless, letting your body float

You hope you can hold your breath long enough

After a few seconds you feel a hesitant tap on your back, before another

Then your shoulders are being gripped, your head is brought out of the water by sans Who is kneeling beside you

“Y/N?!” sans says, sounding a bit worried

You open your eyes laughing at him again

His face goes blank before he pushes you down into the water and stands up

“You should have seen your face!” You say laughing still

“HAR HAR HAR, YOU'RE HILARIOUS” he says, starting to walk further into the water

Right, the queen has told yall to do that too

You stand up, following behind him

“Of course i am” you smirk, nudging him with your elbow

Wait a sec

You're getting too comfortable

Ok ok, put some distance

You slowly get a bit further as you two walk

He notices but decides to not comment on it

You continue until the water is up until your shoulders (sans's chest)

“Maybe we should have brought a tube” it would be fun

Sans looks at the beach a bit before raising a hand

You look at him with a raised eyebrow and look at the beach, and see a tube, covered in purple magic floating and moving towards you

Uh, Right, magic, yeah

The tube falls beside you

“Thanks!” you smile

You two suddenly start to float as well, rising in the air

“What the-” it's definitely not sans

Sans drops on the tube before you do so as well, on top of him

“You've got this!” You hear a yell, looking to see papyrus, also in the water but a bit further away from you

Bro…

You look at sans awkwardly, moving slightly so that you're beside him instead of on top of him

The tube is big enough for that thankfully

After a little your tense body relaxes as you just lay there, on top of the tube, the only sound being the waves and water since you're so faraway from the beach

You sigh, just laying comfortably, closing your eyes

Chapter 35

Notes:

I'm back
I didn't survive though guys, i blew my exams up😁😭

"So, captain, I'm sure you have heard yourself how everyone in the royal guard has talked about you and the captain of the special force for a few days after her stay here”

Of course he has, he couldn't walk in the halls without hearing someone talking about him and his ‘wife’

And they somehow even knew about the situation alphys found you two in

“Well, we have decided that the same thing could happen for the special force, so i expect you to go there today, and spend a day with the captain”

sans looks at the queen with a small frown, dumbfounded by her order but he refuses to show that reaction on his face

“We will tell everyone that today has been your off day, so you have decided to visit her and stay with her during her whole shift, now, please go ahead”

“YOUR MAJESTY…”

“go” she says, a bit more sternly

Sans clenches his fists but bows nonetheless and leaves

Fuck

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

“Excuse me sir, but the captain is currently busy, do you want me to arrange a meeting for the future?”

“oh come on” another receptionist that is also behind the desk says, pushing her coworker away

“Sir, don't worry about what she says, go straight ahead, the captain is in her office”

“What are you doing?! She's currently-”

“This is her husband we're talking about, he has special permission to go whenever”

“Wait, you don't mean…”

The second receptionist nods before talking again

“Go on sir, it was amazing to meet you” she nods with a smile

Sans just looks between the two, confused on what just happened but nods and goes towards the elevators

He makes his way towards your office, he knocks but there's no answer

He knocks again

Again, no answer

He hesitantly opens the door and peaks inside

Seeing you holding someones collar, your face close to his as you glare down since the guy is sitting down

“-you got that?!” You say angrily

“Yes!” the guy answers

“Good, now get out of my sight before i-”

Sans decides to just come in which makes you stop and look at him

You look down at the guy again, before letting go of his collar

“Go” you say and the guy hurries out of the room

Sans looks at him with a raised bonebrow before his gaze turns towards you

“What are you doing here?” You ask

“THE QUEENS ORDER” he closes the door

“What exactly is the order?”

“THAT I SPEND A DAY HERE”

“Why?”

“SHE SAID YOU STAYING AT THE EMBASSY HAD A GOOD IMPACT SO SHE WANTS THE SAME FOR THE SPECIAL FORCE”

You roll your eyes

“Back at it again, huh? well she chose a bad day, i have a nightshift today”

“NIGHTSHIFT?”

“Yep, I'll be staying until late, I'll probably just sleep here, wake up in the morning and get back to work”

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

‘and stay with her during her whole shift’ the queens words suddenly play in his head

She knew

She definitely knew

This was also a part of the plan… why she wants him to spend the night here with her? He doesn't know

You walk behind your desk and sit back down on your chair

“Well, feel free to do whatever” you shrug, before typing away on your laptop

Sans doesn't like this situation, at all

He's not comfortable here

He sits down on a chair and just sits there with crossed arms

After a while, there's a knock on your door

“Come in”

The door opens and someone sans doesn't know walks in

“Hello” the person says, holding chocolate in his hands as he closes the door and walks towards you

“Oh hello jay”

“Hey y/n” he holds the chocolate out for you as he leans on the desk “thought I'd drop by to see what you're doing” the guy says with a playful wink

He's… so obviously flirting…

“Oh! Thank you!” You say, taking the chocolate

“So, how have you been?”

“Good, what about you?” You smile up at him

So this is how it goes here in the special force… are you dating this guy?

Sans raises an eyebrow

He doesn't have a problem with that, you can do whatever you want but at least he hopes you're good in hiding it, he doesn't want all his hard work being for nothing

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

You take the chocolate from jason, he does this a lot, you're not sure why, but he drops by and brings you something you like to eat every single time

You open the wrapper and break a piece, holding it out for jason himself

He takes it with a smile

“amazing” his eyes suddenly move to sans

“Oh, i didn't see you there” he says, standing straight

Honestly, for a sec, you, yourself forgot he was there

“Sans, this is jason, a very good coworker”

You point at him as you eat the chocolate

“Well, i won't bother you two, take care, dear” jason says before leaving the room with a wave

“You want some?” You ask sans

“NO”

You shrug, going back to eating and paperwork

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

Sans sits there, bored out of his mind, you're not saying anything and the only noise in the room is your typing and scribbles

Until you stop and stretch before standing up and closing your laptop

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

“Ok, time for my break, let's go” you say, starting to walk towards the door

“WHERE?”

“There's a coffeeshop nearby, i normally go there for my breaks, actually, we've been there before” when you asked for his help but didn't actually need help and wanted to let him rest

Sans gets up as well, following you

to keep face, you take his hand and you two go to the elevators. He thankfully doesn't comment on it

You make your way to the coffeeshop quickly and make your order, sans does as well and pays for his order, you offer to pay but he declines and you two go sit down

You just relax while eating your orders, no conversations going on, just a comfortable silence

Well, at least between you two, the others in the shop are talking and laughing

You look at them, seeing the couples and friends, family members and even some people alone

You'll sit here with your SOULMATE one day

That, you promise

You smile at the thought as you look down at your drink

It would be so nice

Sitting here, with the one person that is made just for you

The most compatible person you could ever ask for

Sigh, it would be lovely

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

after the break you go back

Going around the building, doing your work around the place as sans awkwardly follows before going back to your office

When you finally come to your senses, it's around 2 am

Looking at sans

He's still sitting on the chair, his arms crossed, his eyes barely open

He looks two seconds away from falling asleep

You yawn yourself, standing up and moving to the murphy bed and pulling it down

“Let's just go to sleep, I'm tired” you say with a sigh

Sans seems hesitant

“What? You rather sleep on the floor? Or the desk?”

Sans sighs getting up before walking towards the bed and sitting down at the edge

You yawn and stretch, Taking your shoes off and laying down, sans. After a while does the same, you two lay with your backs facing eachother

Until you both fall asleep which is pretty quickly since you're both tired

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

In the morning, you slowly open your eyes, met with a purple cloth

Your mind doesn't register what it is and you just decide to sleep just a bit more, so you pull whatever it is you're hugging closer and close your eyes

You feel a hand tighten around your waist but again, your brain doesn't fully register that you should be on alert

Then, the thing your hugging is slowly pulled away, but just slightly, the warmth no longer against your face

You grumble, opening your eyes to see what is disturbing your sleep

You stare at sans's eyelights as he looks at you

You two stare at eachother a bit before you finally register what is happening and both quickly let go of eachother

Sans lets go of your waist and pulls slightly back and you unwrap your arms from around him and also pull back so now your bodies are no longer touching

You sit up, stretching as sans quickly wears his boots

He stands up and you follow, wearing your own and standing up, you groggily go over to your desk and take a sit, opening the laptop and getting back to work

There's not enough time to spare

Sans looks at the clock before saying goodbye and leaving

You just wave as he goes

You have a lot to do and you're sure he needs to get to work as well

Chapter 36

Notes:

GUYS sorry for the late update, the internet in my country went national for a while because of war and the cyber attacks on my country, GODDAMN
But I'm BACK

“still nothing?”

“Nothing”

Alphys, looks disappointed

“Why do you want me and sans to make progress eitherway?” You raise an eyebrow, drinking your order

“Let this stay between us…” alphys says, looking hesitant “but i seriously think nathalie is not his SOULMATE”

“Why?”

“Undyne has made some discoveries”

Discoveries? You don't like to think where, when how, but you still ask

“What kind of discoveries?”

“I bet she would like to tell you about it herself”

“Well she's not here”

“Why not go to her lab then?” she grins

You scrunch your face slightly, you don't have to be a genius to know that place isn't gonna be heaven

alphys laughs “don't worry, she doesn't have permission to run tests on humans”

How promising

She brings her phone out and dials a number

“Hey, how are you?”

You can hear a voice answer from the other line but can't make out what it's saying but from alphys expression it's a positive answer

“are you at your lab? Amazing, nothing, just me and y/n are going to drop by” she chuckles and looks at you “she's excited”

How amazing…

So that's where you two go

Undynes lab

Today was off for the both of you so you were hanging out when it came to this

Alphys opens the door and walks it without permission so you look around before following

You two go in and see undyne writing something on a clipboard

“Hey ‘dyne” alphys grins

Undyne looks at youtwo quickly, smiling widely before she runs and hugs alphys

The two look kinda cute

They let go and undyne looks between you two

“So, what made you come here?” She asks

“She asked About your new discoveries and i thought maybe you wanted to tell her yourself”

Undynes eyes seem to sparkle

“Yes! Please take a seat!” She points at the few chairs that are placed infront of a big computer

You do as told

“Can yall tell me already? I'm getting a bit too curious” it's kinda eating at your brain, what kind of discoveries?!

“Turns out” she walks infront of you, near the computer, picking her clipboard up “human-monster SOULMATES are different from anything else we have ever seen”

You raise an eyebrow

“I've had patients talking about how they have been experiencing different things, some of them being, feeling eachothers emotions!”

“Eachothers emotions?” You look slightly taken aback, the concept sounds wild but also kinda… romantic?

“Yes! Many have reported feeling emotions that do not belong to them, after gathering many couples and interviewing them there has been a pattern, their SOULMATES feeling the same exact emotions at the same exact time!”

“Do you know the basics of a SOUL bond?” alphys asks you

“Not really” you don't even know what that is

“A SOUL bond, as its name suggests Is a bond between peoples SOULS, something that connects them on an extremely deep level” how have you never heard of this? “Even though, humans seem to not know much about it, eitherway in normal human-human and monster-monster couples, the most this SOUL bond does is an extremely deep understanding and shared love, BUT, from what we have gathered human-monster couples are DIFFERENT. not only do they feel eachothers emotions but they have reported their SOULS DANCING together!”

“dancing?!” Your eyes widen as you sit at the edge of your chair

“YES! They have all reported their SOULS, leaving their body and dancing together after sharing their first kiss! So, i have brought some here to be able to record it”

“No way, you got that on camera?!”

She nods enthusiastically, pushing her glasses up and typing on her computer a video starts playing, showing a blushing human girl with a dog looking monster

They both look slightly bashful, after avoiding eye contact with the camera their gazes land on eachother

You look more closely, putting all of your focus on the video 

They slowly hold eachothers hands before moving closer and sharing a kiss, there's a light and then the twos SOULS leave their bodies, getting closer to each other and flying together, twirling and spinning around eachother, it looks absolutely beautiful

While the girls SOUL is blue the monsters SOUL is white

The SOULS keep that up for a while before the monsters SOUL which was white until then gets a purple and blue hue and the SOULS go back to their places

“Did you see that?! The monsters SOUL gained color and also gained the humans trait color as well! This is a first! And every SINGLE one has been the same!” Undyne seems absolutely ECSTATIC 

“That… wow” you are at a loss for words, You have never seen nor heard anything like this

“This leads me to a theory” undyne starts “humans and monsters have different life spans, while a monsters is much longer a human only lives around 70 or 80 years, so, what if this bond keeps the humans alive along with their SOULMATES?! That is still a theory, but we have started keeping an eye on the couples for confirmation, i had this theory when i notices the SOUL sharing magic, which explains the color of the SOULS”

Living as long as a monster? Now that sounds amazing

“Does anyone else know about this?! This is a BIG discovery!”

“Not yet, the last part is still a theory, plus, we have decided to wait for a bit before revealing this” alphys answers

“Why?!”

“the humans are still getting used to monsters, this needs to wait for a little and about the last part, only human SOULMATES will know about that if it comes to be true”

Makes sense… humans may get greedy if they realize some can live that long

“This is one of the most interesting shits I've heard in a long time, tell me you'll keep me updated” you say, a hint of excitement in your voice

“Of course, captain” alphys teases

“Wait, you said… nathalie and sans…” you look at alphys “they haven't…?”

Alphys shakes her head

“They CAN'T be SOULMATES”

“Neither can i be his SOULMATE, we did kiss, it was small but it still was one” the one and only you shared on your wedding day still counts 

“No, the thing is, we've had cases where the two did not like eachother yet so their SOULS did not show a reaction but after falling in love, it worked”

“this is too much information that i am happy to have gained” you lean back on the chair “Anything else?”

“We're still investigating” undyne says happily, she must like her job a lot

“Are you gonna tell sans?” You look at alphys

“I… don't know… he seems… to really love nathalie… i don't know how he'll react”

“Makes sense, i don't think he needs to know either, don't tell him”

“It kinda feels… i don't know… i feel a little guilty”

“If you break the news down, he'll be even worse” as much as you'd love to get rid of nathalie you don't think sans will take the news lightly “so don't”

“makes sense…”

Chapter 37

Why so many balls? The special force and the royal guard are having a ball together and you as always have to attend

Uuugghh

“Again?!”

“This is the first time” dad says

“i have to attend with sans again” you groan 

“I thought things were going smoothly between you two”

“They are, but it's so awkward, plus he keeps getting on my ass that we should be there early”

“He's not wrong”

“Two HOURS earlier”

“It's a little too early but still not bad”

You just groan again

“The event is already planned, so you better be ready, we'll ready the dress you'll be wearing”

“Why?” Why can't you choose once?!

“Because it needs to be similar to your uniform”

“How? That's a uniform, this is a dress”

“It will have a mini suit, the colors also need to match your uniform”

You just roll your eyes

“We're at work, be professional” he lectures you

“Noones here, also, i don't want to go with sans again”

“You've already agreed to everything when you agreed to get married”

“Whatever”

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

“I'm kinda excited for the ball, this place has never had something like that” olivia says, drinking her tea

“but i have to go with sans” you grumble

“Hey, I'm right here” papyrus smirks

“What? He did good on the celebration” rachel points out

“Yeah, but the dance is always so awkward”

“I can guess how that feels”

You look at eleanor and she looks a little sympathetic 

“But I'm sure you can pull through”

“Yeah i guess”

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

The day of the ball finally arrives

“WHY ARE YOU NOT READY YET?!”

“Again? Sans, there's still 4 hours left!”

“GET UP, WE'LL BE LATE!”

“my dress isn't here yet”

“WHAT IS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN?!”

“that i don't have anything to wear, it'll arrive in a little, don't worry”

“WHY DIDN'T YOU BUY ONE SOONER?!”

“Hey, it isn't my fault, the special force is giving us the dress, they're making the dress themselves, it's on it's way”

he taps his foot against the floor and crosses his arms as he looks at you disapprovingly

You just stare back at him blankly

Suddenly there's a knock at the door

It's most likely the dress, you go to the door and open it, there's noone there. You look down and see a package on the floor

You pick it up and go in

“There, now calm down” you roll your eyes and go to your room and wear the dress

The color is the same as your uniforms and there's a mini suit with the symbol of the agency on the chest which you have to wear on top of the dress

After putting on makeup and fixing your hair you go out the room and downstairs where sans is walking in circles with his hands behind his back

“Calm down, it's not the end of the world”

He looks at you quickly

“FINALLY! LET'S GO!”

You shake your head and go with him to his car, papyrus following

“Where's nathalie?”

“Already there”

You all get in the car and sans drives quickly

“We're NOT late, why do we have to have this conversation every single time?”

“I NEED TO BE THERE TO MAKE SURE NOTHING GOES WRONG”

You just shake your head and go on your phone for the rest of the way

You finally put it aside when the car comes to a stop

You are going to open the door when sans stops you

“THE LAST TIME I HAD TO GO THROUGH A WHOLE LECTURE” he says, getting off the car

“What?” You mutter, watching him go around the car and open the door for you, he holds a hand out and you stare at it before taking it

He helps you out and you three finally go inside the building and to the elevator and upstairs

“You were forced to wear the mini suit?”

“Yep, everyone needs to know who we are it seems” you chuckle

Upon arrival you can see that the place looks like they have worked on it for weeks which they most likely have

You look around with a nonchalant expression until your eyes land on miranda

“Bitch alert!” You whisper yell, pulling sans away and in the balcony

“What the hell is she doing here so early?!” You say to yourself

“WHAT'S YOUR PROBLEM WITH HER EITHERWAY?”

“She's always trying to make me look bad, jealousy issues” you glare her way

Sans sighs taking a seat at the table that's placed there

He looks outside, trying to see if there's any suspicious thing going on as you keep looking around to see who else is there

After a little you stop and go sit on the table infront of sans

“CAN YOU HAVE SOME MANNERS AND SIT AT THE TABLE NOT ON IT?!”

“Calm down, there's noone around” you shrug

“There you are” dads voice reaches your ear, you turn your head and look at him

“Hey there” you wave slightly

“You two are doing an amazing job, as always” he nods, standing on the other side of the chair

“We haven't even done anything?”

“People are talking about how you're here alone talking” he looks back inside “and they think it's romantic”

“Seriously?” You laugh, sans was just telling you off

“See sansy? No problem”

“DON'T CALL ME THAT”

“Ok… sansy”

He glares at you

“Y/n”

“Ok”

“Just act as always” he says walking closer and putting a strand of hair behind your ear before walking away

“You heard the general” you stand up, leaning against the railing as the wind blows in your face

You close your eyes and take a deep breath in

“Hey sans”

“YES?”

“we have to dance again” he doesn't say anything, not that you want him to

“Just pretend I'm nathalie”

“HUH?”

“just pretend, imagine it's her, I'll do the same, maybe that will cease the awkwardness” you open your eyes looking back at him, he seems to be thinking

“WHY ARE YOU SAYING THAT ALL OF A SUDDEN?”

You shrug

“Just a problem we've been having for a while, so i thought maybe that would help”

You look back at the scenery, the sun is setting and coloring the sky with warm colors like orange and red, it's a beautiful sight to see, as always

You kinda wish it was your SOULMATE that you were here with…

It would be so nice, but you're stuck with… him

You look back at him, he's also staring at the sun. You sigh, plopping your head on your palm, leaning completely against the railing

Destiny is such a weird thing

“The ball is starting, what are you doing here?” Rachels voice brings you out of your thoughts

You turn around

“Yeah, coming”

“Is everything ok?”

“Yeah why?”

“You look weird”

She can read you so well, you don't like it

You chuckle “no, I'm good” you put a smile on “let's go”

Sans stands up, walking beside you

You three go back inside

Chatting with the present people as more arrive, the place gets more crowded by the second as monsters and humans come inside

You and sans have to greet a lot of them since they're either important people in your job or his

All in all, it goes smoothly

“I'M GONNA GO TELL SOMETHING TO NATHALIE”

“ok” you shrug as sans walks away

you feel a nudge on your shoulder and turn around, seeing a guy there, smiling politely

“Hello, mrs.y/n, correct?” He asks, extending a hand, you take it

“Yes, that's me, but i don't think we have had the pleasure of meeting”

He turns your hand and places a kiss on your knuckles which takes you by surprise

“The name's william”

“Well, nice to meet you, i wonder why I've never seen you before”

“Maybe because I'm not from the special force”

“Then what are you doing here?” And he has a uniform on?

…

He's giving a very bad vibe

You try to pull your hand back but he grips it tightly

“What the-” you try again but he suddenly pulls on it, spinning you around and bringing out a knife before putting it under your neck as he grips your body

You hear a gasp other than your own

everyone starts looking at the source

“Sorry everyone” william, if that's his real name, says, smirking “but the party is over”

What is going on?!

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

Sans sees everyone looking at somewhere, some murmuring and some gasping, he follows their gazes and finds a guy, putting a knife under someone's neck… wait, not just anyone, it's you!

“What do you think you're doing?!” You ask, glaring up at the dude

“You all really think monsters and humans can live together?! Ha, you're out of your mind and YOU are the worse” he glares down at you “marrying one of those?!”

A monster hater!

Some people go stand behind Him and some gather around the crowd, bringing out weapons or making magic attacks

Sans quickly goes to the queens side but she seems panicked and nods toward you

she wants him to save you first?!

He nods, walking towards you instead, if he can take them by surprise maybe… ugh no that won't work

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

Ok this is bad, but these people are dumb, this crowd is filled with trained mages and monsters

Seriously?

You stomp on his foot with your heel as hard as you can which results in him twitching and actually letting go in his surprise, it also results in a small cut on your neck

You quickly get out of his hold but he quickly hits your leg with his which causes you to fall down

You see a purple bone going from above your head and look at the source, seeing sans running towards you

He kneels beside you, helping you up

You flinch when you put weight on your leg

“I think i sprained my ankle…” you say, gripping him for support

He looks around before picking you up bridal style and running somewhere

You wrap your arms around his neck in your surprise

Everyone seems to be fighting

Sans quickly puts you on the table that is on the balcony

Looking to make sure your injuries aren't too bad

it… kinda makes you blush

You don't want to admit it but it makes you a little… warm inside

After making sure you're not injured badly he walks away, making a wall of bone around the balcony

To protect you? Seriously?

You find yourself staring at him as he walks away

He looks … awfully attractive to you right now…

Wait what?! 

No hell no, it's SANS you're talking about

And he's NOT your SOULMATE!

There's so many wrong things about this

No no no, you are not possibly falling for him…

Nope

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

Sans quickly looks around, searching for nathalie, she might be in danger!

He finds her near the queen, good, the queen is so much stronger than she looks

It seems the monster haters are a lot but are definitely losing

Sans, after making sure nathalie is ok gets to fighting the haters off as well

What were they thinking? This event is filled with mages and trained monsters

There must be something they want

Sans looks around, his eyes landing on wall of bones he has made which is broken

What can they possibly want from you?!

He shouldn't have left you it seems

He looks around, before knocking someone out and going to the balcony again, finding that same guy who was holding you hostage gripping your wrist

His eyes widen as the guy turns around with a smirk and you two suddenly disappear

Teleportation!

All the other members also disappear and vanish into thin air

Everyone looks around confused

“What's going on?” The queen and mr.hatchett run towards sans

“THEY… HE TOOK Y/N” he says, staring at the table

“What?!” The general asks, sounding angry

“Y/n…” rachel mumbles

Chapter 38

Mr.hatchett runs his hand through his hair

"Ok… her dress has a tracker on it…” he walks away

“Go with him” the queen orders

“BUT-”

“go!”

“YES YOUR MAJESTY” sans quickly follows after mr.hatchett and rachel

The two quickly go to a car and get in

“Hurry up” mr.hatchett says making sans get in the car quickly

He drives to the special forces building And the three quickly make their way to mr.hatchetts office

He works on his computer and types away

“the tracker isn't working” he says through gritted teeth

“What?! Want me to call michael here?!”

Mr.hatchett nods and rachel hurries out the door

“Who took her?”

“THE SAME GUY WHO WAS HOLDING A KNIFE TO HER THROAT… I THINK HE COULD TELEPORT”

“We must find her quickly…”

“I DON'T MEAN TO BE RUDE, BUT SHES THE CAPTAIN, WON'T SHE BE ABLE TO PROTECT HERSELF?”

“yeah, she'll be fine” nathalie says, walking in the room

“WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?!”

“what? I'm not leaving you alone”

Sans's gaze softens upon hearing that

Rachel and michael walk in after a few moments

“They must somehow be blocking the signal” he says, walking to the computer and typing away

“Do you think she's ok?” rachel asks, looking worried

“I don't know” mr.hatchett answers truthfully

“So that's all your ‘captain’ has?” nathalie says, sounding mocking

The two glare at her but don't say anything

“We have a signal!” michael says turning the projector on and making a video appear on the wall behind the computer

“It's live”

“Hello there special force, lost something?” A voice call out from the video

The footage shows you, sitting on a chair, your hands tied behind your back

“Sadly, this is the last time you'll see her, and this is just the beginning, how dare you let monsters poison our world and then talk about how you protect us?”

“She's ok!” rachel says, pointing at you

“Not for long it seems” nathalie mumbles

“Michael, can they hear us or is this one sided?”

“One sided”

Mr.hatchett tchs

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

You look around and at the camera

This sucks, your ankle is sprained and your magic is locked by the magic restrains around your wrists

BUT

This restrains also work with magic and have a time limit, almost like a battery, you just need to wait until it runs out of power

You can easily kill all of them off then

But maybe in the meanwhile you can get some information

From what you've figured out, the reason they've gotten you is because you are the first to get married to a monster and they don't like it

You look at the camera as this random dude talks and then the camera seems to turn off

“you are a filth” the william dude says, pushing himself off the wall and walking towards you

“Oh, really?”

“Yeah, really” he glares at you, looking absolutely disgusted

“Hey they're not that-” he punches you in the face, making you get thrown back and fall on the ground along with the chair

Damn it hurts!

“I'll wipe that grin off your face”

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

“I can track the signal down” michael says, taking a seat and getting started

“Why can't she save herself again?”

“Magic restrains, they're most likely using one on her”

“Ok, when michael finds the location, i want you to go and bring her back”

Mr.hatchett says, looking at rachel

“I'LL GO WITH HER”

“why?” Nathalie asks

“THE QUEEN TOLD ME TO HELP”

Mr.hatchett nods

They just need to be on time

“I hope she doesn't do anything stupid either…” rachel mumbles so that only her boss would hear but sans does catch it, barely

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

You still lay on the ground, listening to this dumbasses’ monologues

They really hate monsters with a burning passion

You have had some kicks to the stomach but thankfully they haven't done irreversible damages yet

But you've learned one thing, this william or whatever his name is, is more serious than the others

He walks towards you and grips your hair, pulling you up so that the chair is straight again and you're sitting on it

You close your eyes and grit your teeth from the pain

“Look at this, such a beautiful woman with a monster” he says, shaking his head

He lets go of your hair and takes a step back “you should be ashamed”

“Sans isn't that bad, all he needs is-” you cut yourself off as you see him walking closer with his fist ready to punch you

Oh shit… not again…

You close your eyes ready for impact that never comes

You open your eye slowly to see him gripping his hand in confusion

The restraints! They're low on power!

Hah! Now it's your turn

You make a small key with your magic and open the restraints

Due to your ankle you still can not stand up

You grin

Making a magic attack and hitting him in the head with it which makes him pass out, there are two others in the room that try to attack you but training with sans has taught you enough to take them out

But they may wake up… you have to finish the job, right?

You, with great hardship go and sit on the dudes stomach, taking his own knife and stabbing him multiple times just to make sure

Before moving to the others and finishing all of them off

People like this are better dead eitherway

You stand up, by using support from the wall you start going outside, at least trying to go outside

You go through different hallways, trying to find the exit but this damn place is like a maze!

After some more searching your eyes land on a certain skeleton running towards you

“Sans?” You mumble as he runs towards you

“ARE YOU OK?!” he holds you up, helping you stand, rachel is by his side

She hugs you quickly

“There you are!”

“What are you two doing here?”

“Michael found the location, we've brought a whole team, the monster hater group are now arrested, where are those three in the video?”

You scrunch your face up

“Send noah there, they're in a room at the end of these hallways” noah is the guy who cleans up after assassinations

Rachel takes a look of realization and nods

Sans picks you up again and takes you outside the building

It feels kinda nice being carried…

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

“So, you'll be working from home?” Papyrus asks, looking at your form, laid on the couch with your laptop on your lap

“Yep”

“They're making a big deal out of this” nathalie scoffs from the kitchen, today is her turn to cook afterall

“I was KIDNAPPED, if the same thing happened to you we wouldn't hear the end of it”

Papyrus nods, agreeing

“And who's fault was it?”

“I mean, sans was supposed to protect her” papyrus says with a shrug

“No, it's not his fault”

It was nice being cared for by him for a while but-

The hell

Why do you keep thinking like that

You're seriously starting to like him?!

No no no, you're not

…

Who are you kidding?

You totally are

Thinking of it, he's gentle when he wants to be and is so kind to nathalie…

BUT he has a girlfriend… plus he's not your SOULMATE…

“Or maybe it's a skeleton?”

“a bone? A skeleton is the first thing that comes to mind”

“plus, i feel like maybe nathalie and sans aren't THAT compatible, maybe it was a mistake?”

Undyne and alphys words come back to you suddenly

Is there a chance?...

No, NO it's just the fact that you've been single for too long and sans is a good example of a good partner, that just got you a little excited

Yes that's IT

Nothing more

Chapter 39

Notes:

May edit this chapter later and add to it, i feel like i should add more scenes to it

“So, what are we here for again?” You ask, looking at undyne

“I have invented a machine, this machine can wipe people's memories of selected periods of time!”

“Can't mages also do that?”

“That takes energy, magic and lots and lots of time, this machine does that in SECONDS”

You nod, looking at the machine with an impressed look

Alphys walks over to undyne, punching her arm jokingly 

“Another amazing job!” She says before laughing and putting her hand on the buttons of the machine and leaning against it

“Wait!” Undyne says but it seems it's too late since the machine shoots some sort of… you honestly don't know, it looks like light

It goes around, hitting walls and getting reflected before moving and hitting another wall

You three follow it with your eyes when you suddenly see it coming towards you

Your eyes widen but before you can move out of the way, the light hits you and you pass out

…

You slowly open your eyes, experiencing a bad headache for some reason

“Y/n… you good?...” you suddenly notice someone trying to talk to you

You sit up, holding your head as you look infront of you to see…

“What?...” is that a fish? And a lizard?

“Thank god, you're ok!” The fish says, looking relieved, who the hell are these? Why do they look like that? Are they someone with weird magic? Or maybe they're monsters?

The lizard helps you get up before hitting you on your back, it's probably a friendly act but she puts too much force in it

“For a second we thought you died, punk!”

You look at her with a confused look, why is she acting so… friendly? That's not how you treat someone you've just met

You step away

“Uh…” wait a sec, where the hell are you?! This looks like some sort of laboratory, and now that you notice it the fish is wearing a lab coat “ok, who are you? Where am i? What's going on?” You say, looking around the place with a confused look

The two look at eachother before at you

“Call sans” the lizard says in a monotone

“Who?”

“Don't worry” the lizard says, taking your hand

“We're calling your husband”

…

“My what?”

she sighs

“This is gonna be a long explanation…”

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

“So… a machine has wiped my memories? I find that hard to believe” you say, narrowing your eyes slightly

“That's what happened”

You look at her, not quite believing her

“There's camera footages too” she rolls her eyes

“Can we…?”

“Ugh fine!” She seems almost angry

You three watch the camera footages together

It seems the lizard accidentally pushed the button and turned the machine on

You look at her with an unimpressed look as she smiles awkwardly

“So… can't you fix it?”

“The fixing part is still a work in progress…”

“How long till it's done?”

“A week?”

Your eye twitches as you look at her

“How much did it exactly erase?”

“Around 7 it seems, since you don't remember… you know”

“No i actually don't know, what?”

The door opens and a skeleton? Walks in

“Good thing you're here sans” the lizard says

“Who the hell is that?”

“Your husband” the fish monster tries

“My what now?”

“Well” the yellow monster starts, standing near the skeleton “you two got married around 6 months ago”

Your jaw drops, the hell?!

“I think i would remember falling in love or something?!”

“THERE WAS NONE OF THAT” the skeleton says, looking annoyed “EXCUSE US FOR A SEC” he pulls alphys and undyne away to a room and you can hear him yelling but can't make out what they're saying

Wait… so you have a husband? Is he your SOULMATE? So you fell in love?

After a little the group comes back and the skeleton looks irritated

“LET'S JUST GO”

Should you go with him?... 

You look at him with a reluctant expression

“WE'RE JUST GOING HOME” he rolls his eyelights

“I mean i just met you and-”

“Come on punk” alphys smirk, pulling you up without your consent “it's your husband” she smirks at you as she wraps her arm around your shoulder

You stare at her for a little before nodding and going with the skeleton

You two go to a car and take a seat

“So… uh… what's your-”

“FIRST OF ALL I WANT TO MAKE ONE THING CLEAR, OUR MARRIAGE WAS ARRANGED, SO DON'T GET ANY IDEAS”

“Arranged?”

Wait so you didn't fall in love?

“YES, WE ARE SUPPOSED TO BE THE FIRST HUMAN AND MONSTER WHO HAVE GOTTEN MARRIED, AND SINCE WE'RE BOTH CAPTAINS, WE WERE CHOSEN”

“Oh…” ok now that's kinda disappointing, you thought maybe you've found your SOULMATE

You look around for a while, the silent extremely awkward

“So… what's your name?”

He eyes you before his eyes go back to the road

“IT'S SANS”

“What's your job?”

“I WORK FOR THE ROYAL GUARD”

“How is our relationship?”

“COMPLETELY PROFESSIONAL”

You don't really have any more questions

the rest of the ride is silent

You go to your house and go inside

The moment you enter your eyes land on another skeleton in the house

“Who's that?” You ask quietly

“MY BROTHER”

“uh… why is he here?”

sans sighs, gripping his nasal ridge

“CAUSE THAT'S HOW IT IS, ME, YOU, HIM AND NATHALIE LIVE IN THE SAME HOUSE”

“Who's that?”

“MY GIRLFRIEND” sans starts walking to the stairs

“Wait what?!” He has a girlfriend?!

“Hey there, what's gotten your bones so rattled?” the second skeleton which now you notice is taller than sans says, putting his elbow on your shoulder

You yelp, jumping slightly as you step away

He looks at you with a confused look

“How did you just go from there to here without me noticing?!” You say, pointing between him and the place he was in before

“With a shortcut?” what the hell is that? “Are you sure you're good?”

“UNDYNES DOING”

You two look at the stairs where sans is standing with home attire

“What did she do now?”

“‘MEMORY WIPING MACHINE'” sans does air quotes as he walks down the stairs

“Wait wait, memory?” He looks at you “so you don't remember shit?”

“No they said i just don't remember around a few months”

“Uh huh, 7 at least if you don't recognize me, which i take you don't?”

You shake your head

“Well, The name's papyrus” he smirks, extending a hand

You look at it before taking it, you feel a shock going through your body and you yank your hand back instinctively

He laughs his ass off, showing his palm that has a buzzer in it

“The ol’ buzzer in the hand trick, it's always funny”

You chuckle slightly

“So, wanna have a talk? Catch up on old memories” he smirks

“I don't know, i wanna go slee-”

“it won't take long” he wraps an arm around your shoulder and pulls you outside

As you walk out the door his smile drops

“Ok, don't trust nathalie, at all, everything she said, It's a lie”

“Uh… why?”

“She's a bitch, she doesn't like you, and so much more”

“Oh… i mean i wouldn't like someone marrying my boyfriend either…”

“The boyfriend she's cheating on” he clicks his tongue

You look at him, taken aback

“Does he know?” You point inside

“No, won't believe it either”

“Did i know about this?”

“Yep, just wanted to make sure, don't trust that bitch”

You nod

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

You and papyrus are talking on the couch when the door opens and a blond woman walks in, papyrus doesn't look like he likes her much

“That's nathalie” he whispers

 you look her up and down and honestly… she's not all that, she's not ugly but like… maybe somewhere In the between, mediocre maybe?

She walks in, not saying hi

“What are you staring at?” She asks sharply

“Nothing” you say, averting your eyes and looking back at papyrus

She huffs before going up the stairs

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

Sans, tells nathalie what happens, when They see eachother, he thought she needs to know

“Sans, i don't want her anywhere near you” that sounded too controlling… She needs to change it a bit… Or fix it at least “she already wasn't good with boundaries, now imagine if she went back to all those months ago!”

Sans just nods reassuringly

“DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT”

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

Living with the three for around two days, you've definitely noticed that sans is extremely strict, he doesn't show any type of interest in you even as a person, he doesn't treat you badly by any means but he isn't nice either. He ignores you most of the time, like you're not even there…

He must really like his girlfriend, keeping so many strict boundaries

Which is a bummer, you thought you finally have found your one but nope, this is an arranged marriage between you and someone else's SOULMATE. And she doesn't even know sans's worth at all! If it was you, you would have been so nice to him… cooking for him, spending time with him and going out on thoughtful dates, not these moneyrobbing dates nathalie likes to go on

Well, you're definitely kind of jealous, why has SHE of all people has found such a loving SOULMATE while you can't?

And she cheats on him?!

Plus living with her has made you realise that even as a person, she aint a good one

As you come down the stairs, you notice sans cooking in the kitchen

You know you have set turns but he seemed tired when he came back home today

Maybe he could use some help

You go to the kitchen, pulling your sleeves up before washing your hands. You go to the vegetables on the counter that are waiting to be chopped and pick a knife up, starting on the job

“WHAT ARE YOU DOING?”

“cooking for four people isn't easy”

“BUT IT'S MY TURN, LOOK AT THE-”

“i know, but you seemed tired, work's been hard, huh?” You smile at him

He looks surprised

“WHY WOULD YOU CARE?...”

“you're still my husband, right?” You say jokingly, looking back down at the vegetables

Sans just stares at you for a while before going back to cooking

You two spend a while in the kitchen cooking, sans, as always, doesn't hold any conversation but you're used to it and will respect his boundaries, so you just hum a song as you two cook

He's a good cook for sure, you're quite excited to try his cooking

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

After about a week of not having your memories, you receive a call while at work and decide to answer since it's a saved number, it reads undyne which sounds so familiar but you can't quite put your finger on it…

Turns out it's the scientist with the whole memory machine, she tells you that her machine is complete and that you need to go there to get your memory back, it seems that the queen has caught wind of this somehow… she forces sans to come with you to make sure everything goes smoothly

You sit on a chair as undyne activates the machine and then there's a light coming towards you which makes you close your eyes and then

You slowly open your eyes, seeing sans and undyne there, looking at you expectantly

You don't know why but you decide to mess with them a bit

“Who the hell are you?!” You point at the two which makes sans's eyes narrow as his head slowly turns towards undyne, you can see his glare darkening by the second as his hands turn into fists, he seems ready to choke undyne who just looks at him with an awkward smile, a drop of sweat rolling down her forehead

You stand up, chuckling slightly

“Just kidding, let's go home” you stretch as you walk towards the door, you came with your own car so you just wave at the two 

“Thanks undyne” and go out, driving home alone

Sans will definitely get you at home

Chapter 40

Notes:

HELLO!!
Guys today is the anniversary of this fic! So here's a chapter!
Thank you all for your support this far!
Happy anniversary!🎉🎉

You are going on another mission and this one looks easy enough, this dude has no security but is a mage himself but come on, you are the captain of the special force, you can handle this

Plus, he's not even home, all you have to do is go, get the documents needed, and get out

Driving to the destination you look at the map of the place, it's literally a mansion but you're still confident you can do it

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

You park the car somewhere quite far and in the shadows to make sure he doesn't notice

You get off the car and walk to the door

Making a key with your magic and simply breaking in

you look around and he's nowhere to be seen just as expected, good

You walk upstairs where michael has told you the safe is in, making your way in his office and taking the pictures off the walls, you finally find the safe

“Ok, just give me a few seconds” michaels voice rings in your earpiece

….

“6849”

You enter the code but the safe doesn't open

‘Fingerprint, invalid’

Fingerprint!? Are you serious right now?!

Alarms start going off

“Ok, what's next?” You ask with an annoyed tone

“Looks like you have to wait until he comes home” the alarms turn off quickly as you heard clicking and tapping from the otherside of the call

you groan, this is NOT what was supposed to happen

Suddenly two gloved hands come in your view one of them pulls your mask down as the other does the same but with your hood

“What the fu-” you turn around, your eyes widening when you see sans

“Y/N?!” he takes a step back “IT… BUT… IT WAS YOU?! ALL THIS TIME! YOU” sans glares at you, gritting his teeth

Ok this was not supposed to happen either… what the hell is going on today?!

“what are you doing here?!”

“I'M THE ONE WHO SHOULD ASK THAT!”

“Listen, i don't have time for this, just tell me what the hell are you doing here and-”

The door opens and the target walks in, eyes widening as he sees you two

Amazing

He runs and you start going after him before sans grips your arm and stops you

“WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU'RE GOING?!”

“I- Let go!” He's going to escape! “Sans i have to GO” you pull your hands out of his and go after the dude, he's already at the front door! 

“Fuck!” You stop the blood circulation in his legs and he falls to the ground you go as fast as you can and finally reach him before kicking him in the head heavily and making him pass out

Sans walks out, seeing the scene infront of him

“EXPLANATION, NOW”

“I have shit to do, we'll talk later” you say taking the target inside with your magic and entering the passcode with his hand instead

the safe opens and you take the documents out

Sans grips your collar and yanks you towards him

“NO MORE RUNNING AWAY” his tone is cold as he galres deeply at you, he looks almost too threatening for your liking

“You've been caught red handed” you hear michael say

“Fine” you roll your eyes “what do you wanna know?”

“WHY DID YOU KILL THAT PROFESSOR?”

“Can i?”

“If you can make sure he won't tell anyone” Mr.hatchett answers

“Because i was ordered to”

“BY WHO?”

“who do you think?”

“THE SPECIAL FORCE IS SUPPOSED TO BE HARMLESS”

“Harmless isn't the word, we're more of peace makers, sometimes in order to bring peace, you have to get help from violence. That dude you were protecting was a runaway from the law”

“WHAT? THEN WHY NOT JUST ARREST HIM?”

“he had too many acquaintances, he wouldn't stay in there, now can you let me go?”

“YOU HAVE EXPERIENCE IN THIS” he points out, his glare and cold tone still present

“Sans, when your boss tells you to do something, you really don't have much choice in my working place,”

“Shifting the blame on us huh?” michael, that damn- ugh

“plus, he would get the death penalty eitherway, he wasn't a nice person. He used to do illegal experiments on children sans, children”

His expression changes

“BUT STILL… I'LL HAVE TO REPORT THAT, YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW MUCH HARDER YOU MADE MY JOB?!”

“yeah, and i apologize for that BUT, if you tell the queen the peace we've made will go to fuck don't you think? Then we went through the trouble of marriage for nothing”

“THAT IS NO EXCUSE”

“sans, that's a secret i can NOT let anyone know” you say, your voice and expression getting more serious “If there's a chance you will tell others i'll be ordered to get rid of the witness as well, aka you. Don't make us fight for no reason more than we already have”

“LIKE YOU CARE ABOUT THAT” he rolls his eyes

“Of course i do! I don't want to kill an innocent person” at least the pills you take makes you not want to do that

He looks at you for a while

“I'LL HAVE TO REPORT TO THE QUEEN WHAT HAPPENED”

“just tell her the special force was here and took care of it”

“THEN SHE'LL ASK YOU ALL”

“We'll handle it”

“You! There's two! Wait, i know you two! You're those two on the news!” the target seems to have woken up, you and sans look at him as he talks

“Eliminate” Mr.hatchett says

“Sir, eli- this is not-”

“Eliminate”

You stay silent for a few seconds “yes sir”

You get yourself out of sans's hold and walk towards the target, making a scythe appear in your hand

“WHAT ARE YOU- AGAIN?!”

“sorry sans, orders” you swing down

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

You two are currently sitting in your office, staring at eachother before sans breaks the silence

“I LIED TO THE QUEEN, YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHAT PUNISHMEN AWAITS ME?”

“you didn't lie, am i not from the special force?”

“WELL.. YOU ARE BUT-”

“and was i not there?”

“YOU WERE”

“and didn't i take care of myself AND the target?”

“HOW DO YOU DO THAT?”

“Do what?”

“YOU LIE WITHOUT LYING”

“just state facts related to the topic of the question, things that sound like they are the answer but they're not”

“YOU HAVE ANY IDEA JUST HOW MUCH WORK YOU MADE FOR ME?!”

“I'm sorry”

“THAT DOESN'T EXCUSE IT! I SHOULD HAVE TOLD THE QUEEN EVERYTHING! THAT'S MY JOB!” it's more like he's talking to himself, trying to understand why he didn't sell you out “EVEN IF IT COSTS ME MY LIFE, BUT FOR SOME REASON I DIDN'T TELL HER BECAUSE OF-” his eye widens slightly before going back to normal, almost like he just remembered something “YOU MANIPULATE BLOOD” he states “WHY HAVE YOU NEVER USED IT BEFORE?”

“due to being dangerous I'm not allowed to use it all the time, just during special missions, if you know what i mean”

“I SAVED YOUR ASS THIS ONE TIME, BUT YOU BETTER NOT GET IN MY WAY ANYMORE”

“I will definitely try”

He walks out with a frown

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

ugh, sans was finally starting to open up and be better to you but this ruined it

Shit

He has started acting cold and distant. He doesn't talk to you or even look at you 

Come on, It's your job so what? Why does he have to be such an ass about it?

God everything keeps getting complicated Again and again

Chapter 41

Notes:

Someone asked for fluff?😁

"You never spend enough time with me! It's almost like that damn job is more important than me!”

“I HAVE TO DO MY JOB OK?! I CAN'T JUST LEAVE!”

“It's like you don't even love me anymore! I'm done, this is stupid!” Nathalie walks out, going down the stairs and out the door, leaving sans behind

Sans, in his anger does the same going to a restaurant he used to go to before at times, muffets. This place also serves alcohol

Papyrus goes there too, but he's at work now, so no worries there

“Hey dearie, long time no see” muffet says, greeting him before her smile turns to a grin “mad?” She starts readying a drink, he seems like he needs it

He sits at a table with a grumble as she places the drink down

“What got your panties in a twist?” She giggles, watching him gulp the drink down

“I CAN'T JUST LEAVE WORK, WHEN IS SHE GOING TO UNDERSTAND?!” his grip on the glass tightens as he talks

Muffet huffs, preparing another drink for him

“that kind of problem, huh? You two had a fight?”

Sans just grumbles under his breath

He's tired

So tired

Work has been hectic and he has so much left to do

Nathalie has been complaining for a while now

He just… it's just too much, all of it, he feels like he can't take this anymore

All the stress is getting to him as he keeps drinking. Shot after shot until even muffet doesn't want to let him have more

“Sans, i think you better go home”

“TO WHAT?” he says, his words slurred as he plays with the glass in his hand and swirls the drink inside around

“Maybe if she sees you like this she will get soft, she's your wife afterall”

“NO SHE'S NOT” he frowns, after all, muffets doesn't know about y/n and the fact that their marriage is fake or that sans's real partner is nathalie

“You're just mad” she giggles “come on, just go home” he's already paid for the drinks so there's no problems there

Muffet finally convinces him to go home but she can clearly see him stumble as he walks, she's not sure if he can make it home safely

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

No dinner?! You're gonna have a talk with natahlie, today is saturday!

The door opens and someone enters, walking out you see it's sans so you put your hands on your hips and frown, he must know why nathalie hasn't made anything

“you have any idea where your little girl-” you cut yourself off… Why does he look like that? His face is flushed, his mouth is slightly agape, his eyelight are sloppy and he is barely looking at you

Is he…

“Sans? you good?”

“DO I LOOK GOOD?!” He slurs out angrily as he stumbles inside

Ok, he's definitely drunk

You sigh

“What happened?”

“FUCKING NATHALIE, I CAN'T FUCKING LEAVE MY WORK JUST BECAUSE YOU WANT TO GO SHOPPING” he says, before… what the fuck

Purple tears gather in his eyesockets as he wipes them away angrily

you don't know why… but seeing him like that almost… makes you feel sympathetic

Nathalie again, huh?

You walk closer to him, now able to smell the alcohol on him

“Lets go to your room” you say softly

“GET AWAY FROM ME”

“Sans, I'm just trying to help you” you extend a hand with a smile

He looks at your hand a little before slapping it away

You just tch before picking him up bridal style, due to being a skeleton, he's not really heavy, thankfully

“PUT ME DOWN! YOU FUCKING USELESS HUMAN! I'M DONE WITH ALL OF YOUR BULLSHIT, EVERYTHING! FIRST THE QUEEN IS ON MY ASS ALL THE TIME BECAUSE OF YOU! THEN NATHALIA IS ON MY ASS ALL THE TIME, I'M DONE WITH ALL OF YOU” he says, trying to get out of your grasp but you hold him as securely as you can and start walking upstairs toward his room. He stops squirming after a little and looks up at the ceiling, tears still in the corners of his eyesockets 

“Want to tell me what happened?”

“WHAT DID YOU EXPECT TO HAPPEN?! WE HAD A FIGHT, SHE LEFT, I LEFT”

You did see her in a bar while coming home… partying…

You sigh again, taking sans to his room, opening the door with your magic and walking in

As always, his room is really clean and organized.

You put him on his bed, he sits there, looking down angrily

What are you gonna do with him? There's only one choice, 

call papyrus

You bring your phone out and dial his number, he picks up after a few rings

“What's up?”

“Hey paps, uh… so hypothetically, what should i do if there was a drunk skeleton here with me right now?”

The other side of the line stays silent for a few seconds

“is sans ok?”

“Just drunk”

You hear a sigh “why?”

“From what i found out he had a fight with nathalie

“Nathalie, it's always nathalie, ok listen, i can't come there right now but can you please stay with him?”

“I wasn't planning on leaving eitherway”

“Thank you”

“But i don't know what to do with a drunk skeleton”

“Just get him something to eat and a cold shower to sober him up a little, thank you”

“but cold showers don't really help?”

“We're skeleton monsters, remember?”

“Oh, yeah, right, ok i will”

“Thank you again, I'll be there as fast as i can”

“no problem”

You hang up and look back at sans who's just staring into space with his head down, a tear running down his cheek

…

You weren't prepared for this

You walk closer hesitantly before sitting beside him

“sans, i know we're not that close, but if you need to talk about it, I'm right here”

He stares at you for a few seconds before he suddenly hugs you tightly, you can't see his expression due to the hug but you can hear a sniffle

You, at first shocked, pull through and wrap your own arms around him without saying anything to give him the chance to talk if he wanted to

“Like… i can't do this anymore… it's all too much” his voice wavers as he talks quietly, gripping the back of your clothes

You run your hand on his back, trying to soothe him

“what is too much?”

“Everything… nathalie… my job… the queen… i have to always be the strong captain that won't be bothered by anything but i can't… i can't anymore” he buries his face in your shoulders as he starts shaking slightly

“You don't have to act tough sans, at least not here” you say, hugging him tighter “you don't have to pretend, and about nathalie…” he won't break up with her, that's for sure “try talking with her, if she loves you, she'll understand” which she doesn't seem to

“i know… i fucked up… i shouldn't have yelled at her…” you can feel your shoulder getting slightly wet

Is he… crying?! Like for real crying?!

Ok damn

“Who started the fight?”

“Nathalie…”

“then it's not your fault, she yelled, you yelled back. You shouldn't have let the frustration get this bad sans… mental health and all” the mental pressure must've been alot for him to go and get drunk like this

You two stay like that for a little until you feel his grip loosening but he doesn't move, is he about to fall asleep?

“Sans?”

“Hm?”

“Let's go get something to eat… I'll just make a sandwich or something”

After a few seconds you feel a nod as he lets go. You still see purple droplets falling down his cheeks

For some reason that doesn't sit well with you

“Wanna take a shower first? Then after you sobered up a bit we can go get those sandwiches” you cup his left cheek with your right hand, wiping his tears with your thumb

“Ok…” He's awfully compliant while he's drunk… can't he always be like that?

You stand up, taking his arm and wrapping it around your shoulder and helping him get up, you help him to the shower and take him inside, fixing the water to a cold temperature

“Ok sans, I'll leave, you take your clothes off and take a shower while i ready the food”

He doesn't say anything, you look at him and he's staring into space again before he breaks out of it and look at you

“HUH?”

this is a lost case

You just stay, making a chair with magic and helping him sit down

This motherfucker can't even stand straight now let alone take a shower

You close the bathtubs drain and let it get filled with water while you search the cabinet and find bathbombs so you pick them up and throw one in the water

“Ok sans, just… take your clothes off”

He nods, taking his shirt off immediately

You turn around quickly 

Not while you're watching! Where's his shame?! His dignity?!

“Done…”

Ok ok, just… don't look

You turn around, averting your eyes

“Ok just… give me your hand” you extend your hand and feel his gloved hand in yours

he didn't take his clothes off?! Then why did he say done?

“Sans, i said take your clothes-” you turn your eyes towards him but then you regret it upon seeing that he has, indeed taken his clothes off and just has his bandana and gloves on

You yelp before looking away quickly but sadly it's too late as you've already seen everything 

He seriously doesn't have a dick?! Papyrus said they did though? You have to ask one of these days…

“Damn you-” you sigh “nevermind” you (blindly) help him to the bathtub and help him sit inside, because of the color of the bathbomb, thankfully you can't see much anymore

but still, you can see his literal SOUL through his ribcage, you don't normally have a problem with that but for some reason now it feels too intimate 

You take his bandana and gloves off and put them aside, get a washcloth from the cabinet and help him wash a bit of his body, but Of course you don't go further down than his ribcage

He already seems a bit better so

“just finish the shower, I'll be right here ok, just… finish it yourself. I'll just… stand here” you take a few steps back before turning your back to him

“OK”

You stand there for about 5 minutes before the water noises stop

you pick his towel up and extend it without looking his way

He takes it and you walk out the shower

He follows after you

“Ok, where are your comfortable clothes?”

“THE SECOND DRAWER”

You search around quickly, finding a shirt And pants, hell no way you're searching for underwear

“Ok just… pick out the underwear yourself” you don't look at him as you walk to his bed and put the clothes on it

“WHY ARE YOU HELPING ME?”

You finally look at him, he has the towel wrapped around his hips, good, even though there's nothing there it's still somehow embarrassing

He's looking down, a frown plastered on his face

“I don't know” you admit, you genuinely don't know why, but you can't just leave him like this

He doesn't say anything and just stands there for a few seconds before he moves to his drawer so you look away again

“Will you be ok if i wait outside?”

“YEAH”

“just come out the room, I'll be right there” you walk out, close the door and stand there, waiting

After a few minutes he comes out, now wearing the clothes you picked

“Ok, let's go get some food in your system” you take his hand and take him downstairs, he follows without saying a word

Where's this bitch nathalie?! This was all her duty, not yours, even though sans is really compliant like this so it wasn't that hard 

You take him to the kitchen and make sandwiches as he sits at the dining table

After You're done, you sit beside him and put his plate infront of him

“THANK YOU”

“no problem” you say as you get started with your own sandwich

“NO REALLY… YOU HELPED ME WHEN MY OWN GIRLFRIEND ISN'T EVEN HERE” he mutters, picking The sandwich up

“really, don't worry about it” you smile softly at him as he eats his food

“You know sans… i really am sorry. It was just… it's my job, i couldn't not do it”

“I…I GET IT. YOU CAN'T REALLY SAY NO TO YOUR BOSS…”

“Yeah, that” you say, a smile pulling at your lips, you kinda wish sans always acted like this

For the rest of the food you two talk, even joke at some point and after a while papyrus finally comes home, thanking you again for taking care of sans

The two then go upstairs, nathalie on the other hand comes home at around 8 am, the club she went to is a quite famous club, you've heard about it from people here and there ‘if you want a hookup then that's the place to club’ she most likely went there for the same reason… you aint telling that to sans though, he already has enough on his mind it seems…

Chapter 42

the next morning you put a glass of water with some magical food items on sans's bedside table, papyrus said that helps

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

Sans opens his eyes, experiencing a bad headache, he groans as he grips his head while sitting up

He must've gotten too drunk last night and blacked out

Ugh

the glass of water and monster candies on his bedside table catch his eye…

Was it nathalie? Maybe papyrus? He takes one of the candies before going to the bathroom, maybe a shower will help

He opens the wrapper and throws the candy in his mouth as he enters the bathroom. Walking in something catches his eyes, a (hair color) strand of hair on the white tiles of the bathroom

YOU

what the hell were you doing here?! In his show-

Nathalie wasn't home when he left, it's safe to think that he came back before her, and papyrus was at work during that time

He looks down, now noticing the change of his clothes and his towel missing

Did you… did you two…

His eyes widen as he looks in the shower and checks the drain for any sign of your hair in the shower… which he doesn't find, thankfully, he checks around for more hair, but doesn't find much

So you were here, but not for a shower

then what?

Could you… no, you would never help him, especially with your relationship at the moment

What the hell were you doing here?! He was drunk so you could have easily…

No, he wouldn't let you… right?

He checks the bed and eveywhere for more hair, not finding any

He goes out of his room and downstairs, finding papyrus in the kitchen

“Oh! Look who finally woke up, the sleeping beauty himself” papyrus smirks but it falls slightly as he sees the expression on sans's face

“is everything ok? Seriously though sans, getting drunk off your ass over a fight, what are you? I thought you were more mature than that, you keep telling ME not to get drunk”

“SO YOU WERE HERE?” So papyrus was here? Now that's reassu-

“Nah, i was at work”

“THEN HOW DID YOU KNOW?”

“y/n called me, said you were drunk, i told her what to do, i came home to you two eating food and joking around, I'm still saying, you two wouldn't look bad together”

“SHE… HELPED ME?”

“yep”

“Cheating on me with her over a small fight, huh?”

“I DID NO SUCH THING” he turns around looking at nathalie who has her arms crossed “LOOK… I'M SORRY, I SHOULDN'T HAVE YELLED AT YOU, IT'S NOT YOUR FAULT I'M BUSY I WAS JUST REALLY TIRED AND I LOST MY TEMPER”

“Well, you have to do more than that to-”

“Sans! You're finally awake, For a few hours i thought you died” you say, walking in the kitchen

“Look who's here, the whore herself”

“Excuse me?!” You frown as she says that

“You heard me, you boyfriend fucker” she says walking away

“At least I wasn't in a a club for one night stands and whores last night!”

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

how dare she call you a whore?!

“WHAT?” Sans ask silently

Oh shit, you didn't want him to know about that… you just got mad and… oh god

You turn around seeing him frowning 

“Anyways, i really-”

“NO, WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY, A WHAT CLUB NOW?”

“Oh, i know which one you're talking about, i hear people talking about it all the time, she was there? When did she come back home?”

You keep pantomiming to papyrus to shut up, also keep mouthing ‘no’ but he doesn't shut the fuck up

“WHAT ARE YOU TWO TALKING ABOUT?!”

“Sorry you had to find out this way bro, the club she went to last night is known for hookups and one night stands, couples who had a fight, singles who can't or don't want to be in a relationship, you can find anyone there”

“Maybe she was just there to drink” you try to reason

“When did she come back home then?”

“Papyrus shut up”

“NO, WHEN DID SHE COME HOME?”

“8… am”

“8 AM?!”

“sans, don't do anything stupid, maybe she just wanted to party”

“YEAH…” did she?

Nathalie comes down with a luggage

“Listen sans, this is not working out, at all. You don't have time for me and I'm not important enough to you, i think it's time we go our separate ways”

You and sans’s jaws drop immediately, you were just trying to convince him not to do anything dumb and nathalie did something dumb instead?!

“WAIT WHAT?! NATHALIE COME ON WE CAN WORK IT OUT” he tries to walk up to her but she walks away

“I've already thought about this, I've been for a while now and I'm done”

“NATHALIE! WAIT, PLEASE IT'S-”

“sans, i can't continue like this ok? You go your way, i go mine, i can do so much better eitherway, i feel like I've settled down”

“WHAT?” sans asks, pain present in his tone, his face not much different

“listen, I've met someone and i just know that he's the one, we can't be SOULMATES, me and you, i found someone last night and our marks are more compatible, and they're on the same place too, he must be the one. i hope you find the right person for you too, but I'm out”

So that's the reason

Sans looks absolutely crushed, and while her expression shows some cruelty and not much care sans looks like he's about to break down

You're not gonna sit here and watch sans humiliate himself further, if a person wants to breakup, there's no reason to try and hold the relationship 

“Go do something” you whisper yell at papyrus who's just standing there

“Nah, let him learn the hard way”

“Hard way my ass” you start walking towards the two who are standing near the entrance door

“Listen, nathalie, you do realize that if you leave right now, there's no way back right?” 

“Yes, I wouldn't want to either way”

“Then get the fuck out of my house” You open the door and frown at her as sans looks at you with a panicked expression

“Sans… it's not worth it, you haven't been happy in this relationship for a while now” you say as nathalie walks out the door “see? She's not willing to fight, it's not going to work” you say sadly “and she says she found her ‘SOULMATE’, this wouldn't happen if you two really were SOULMATES in the first place”

Nathalie slams the doors shut as she leaves

Sans stands there, looking defeated as he clenches his teeth, almost on the verge of tears

“This bitchass nathalie couldn't find a better time” you tch, putting a hand on his shoulder he smacks it away, getting a hold of you collar “WHY DID YOU DO THAT?!”

“sans i know it's hard but-”

“DID I ASK YOU TO DO ANYTHING?! NO! WHY DO YOU ALWAYS HAVE TO PUT YOUR NOSE WHERE IT DOESN'T BELONG?!” He pushes you away, making you stumble back before walking up the stairs and to his room

“See? You must have let them have it their way” papyrus leans against the counter

“Why are you so calm?! Your brother was drinking his ass off just yesterday! And you don't care today?! He's going through a rough pa-”

“I know, you think i don't care? Of course i do, but i know my older brother, he's not going to let us help, he never does” papyrus says, almost sadly

“But we can't just leave him like that…”

“We can't do anything else either, I'll try to talk, but it's not going to work” papyrus says, walking up the stairs

You hope he can do something…

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

Papyrus knocks on his brothers door but he doesn't hear an answer

“Sans?”

…

“Sans, come on, it's just me, open the damn door”

…

“Listen, i know it's hard, but it was sure to happen, how could you not see that she didn't actually-”

“IF THAT'S ALL YOU WANT TO SAY, LEAVE, I WANT TO BE ALONE”

“Just know… we're here if you need us, ok?”

…

Papyrus sighs, walking downstairs

Meanwhile sans, sits on his bed, his eyelights glancing at the water and candies for a few seconds before he lays down on his bed

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

Papyrus comes down the stairs

“So?” You ask, hoping he could calm him down

“didn't let me in, told you. But i did tell him what needed to be said” he sits down on the couch next to you “we just have to wait”

“I hope things get better…”

“Same”

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

Sans is taking the breakup HARD. He looks worse each day, dark eyebags under his eyes

He seems to be running on auto pilot, he's also been drowning himself in work, taking longer shifts and everything, he doesn't talk much and drinks alot

Ok, enough is enough

He needs to get off his ass

You have to do something

You go to his room, almost banging on the door

“Sans?”

No answer

“Sans!”

Nothing

“I swear I'll break in if you don't answer 3…2…1” fuck it, you open the door, going in without permission. Finding him laying down on the bed on his non existence stomach 

“Sans, this is enough, you've been being a dumbass for a few weeks now. It's time to get your shit together”

“GET THE FUCK OUT” he’s drunk again

Ugh, at least it's not THAT bad, it must have been a while, he seems to be slowly sobering up guessing from how his speech isn't THAT slurred

“Sans come on, you can't keep going like this” you take a seat on his bed

“I CAN… WILL…” the fuck he mean i can i will?! And the fact that he didn't even finish that sentence just says how drunk he is

“Sans, drinking won't help your case, at all. It'll just get it worse” you say sternly, trying to get him to come to his senses

“I'M A FUCKING FAILURE, COULDN'T EVEN BE A GOOD PARTNER”

“no, you were more than a good partner, from what i saw you were the perfect partner… i think it was more of a physical thing… not that you look bad, just i think SHE wasn't that into monsters” the clubs she went to were always humans only

“Come on, after a break up, drinking doesn't help, but being with the ones who care about you does, go talk with papyrus, spend time with him, say what, we can all go out for some ice cream or something”

“GET THE FUCK OUT”

“sans, come on”

“LOOK” he brings his head up, looking at you with a glare “THIS IS NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS, GET OUT”

“I'm done with your dumbass” you stand up, go to the bathroom and fill the tub with cold water before going back, taking his arm, forcing him up, taking him to the bathroom and forcing him in the tub, that seems to get him a little more awake as his eyesockets widen

“WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?!”

“sobering a bitch up” you put your hands on your hips “get ready, we're going out” you say, walking out of the room

And into your own of course not before yelling

“Papyrus! Get ready we're all going out”

“Done” he walks out of his room, looking like always

You shake your head before going to your own room and getting ready

You walk out and go into sans's room again, seeing him in a different set of clothes as well

you don't know why… but you feel like he needs one, so you walk closer slowly before hugging him, that takes him off guard as his eyesockets widen before he wraps his arms around you and buries his face in your shoulder

“Sorry for what happened”

Sans doesn't say anything. you've figured Somethings out about sans when he's drunk

He's extremely compliant 

He's more open

He speaks his mind

He kinda gets a little aggressive 

He gets more emotional

You feel like you're seeing a whole different version of him

But they do say drunk words are sober thoughts, so just to think that the sans you've always known has been just an act…

Alphys told you about it once though… didn't she?

You have talked about it with papyrus and he has told you how sans always acted like that to be able to protect papyrus and himself since the UNDERGROUND wasn't such a pretty place

You kinda felt bad for him… having to go through all of that and even now he can't be himself 

“lets go to a restaurant, muffet was it?” Papyrus has mentioned how both of the brothers like the restaurant, for different reasons but like it nonetheless

“WHY THERE?”

“Papyrus said you liked the food, don't you?”

“NO… I DO”

“Let's go then” you smile and take his hand, pulling him out while being sure he won't fall, by the time you make it to the restaurant he seems to have mostly sobered up

“WHY ARE WE HERE?” He says, sounding annoyed

“Cause you need to get out of the house for fun, not work. Plus, they say spending time with people can be good for you, also talking about your feelings, so me and papyrus here are all ears”

“All” papyrus nods jokingly. You hit him with your elbow slightly

“Let's just go in” you say, wrapping your arm around his back and pushing sans inside

“Hello” the owner, which seems to be a spider monster says, she has multiple hands and eyes “oh, sans, i see you did make it home” she giggles, walking towards you

“You're the wife then i assume? And happy to see you two have made up”

“We never fought to begin with?” you raise an eyebrow

“Then who-” 

“A friend. Ex-friend” papyrus answers

“I see, i thought it was you”

“Y/n, this is muffet, muffet, Y/n” papyrus introduces you two

“Good to meet you” you nod

“Of course dearie” she extends a hand and you take it, shaking hands with her before letting go

You three sit at a table and for the rest of the night try to distract sans, which works to a small extent.

He didn't cheer up but at least didn't order alcohol

You go get ice creams before going back home

You make sure sans doesn't drink for the night before everyone goes to bed

today wasn't a whole lose, at least you cheered him u-

Wait a second, why are you so adamant to help him? Like what does it have for you? Nothing… you're just… doing it because you don't like seeing him sad… but why? Are you… starting to like him?!

No no no no, no you're not, damn damn damnit

Are you actually falling for a fucking emotionally wounded skeleton!? sans of all people?!

But… even if it was pretending… he has been so kind and caring on those fake dates… he probably would act the same if you two started really dating… the way he acted infront of your parents, on the fake dates, infront of others… thinking about it now… you wouldn't hate being treated like that on a daily basi-

God…

Shit

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°°

For the next month or so, things go on in the same manner. You and papyrus trying to cheer sans up and it slowly but surely starts working

You can see him being less tense all the time, he has also started chatting with you and papyrus again, he doesn't drink as much either

In two months he has finally moved on fully.

No drinking, no eyebags, No tension, no drowning himself in work, he has finally stopped grieving over his relationship

He once said he still kinda misses it but he wouldn't go back

°°°°°°☆°°°°°°

these two months have went on in a flash of black and white for sans, it's like he wasn't even there, he doesn't remember a good chunk of it, most likely due to drinking, but after that he has started finally realizing all the bad things in his relationship with nathalie, and has done some reflecting. He did his best, if it wasn't enough for nathalie, then that isn't his problem…

And if they were really SOULMATES, she wouldn't leave him, right?

He can feel himself going back to his old self again

He's really thankful for yours and papyrus's help

He also can't help but feel… nice about how you've been helping him

He kinda wonders if nathalie would do that for him…
