I woke up on an examination table and realized i was in Alphys' lab. I whimpered remembering the gruesome battle where I had killed her lover Undyne. I hugged my knees wishing to be anywhere but here. I rocked back and forth thinking about the genocide run i had once done. I had lost all memory about that moment until i saw Sans and Papyrus for some reason. I heard a click and looked up to see Alphys walking towards me her claws holding a pill. " S-Sans and Papyrus h-had told me t-to g-give you this."She said handing me the pill. I held in and picked at the edge not meeting her searching eyes. "Sans and Papyrus w-will be b-back in a f-few minutes." She explained nervously. I nodded and asked what the pill was for looking anywhere but at her. She explained it was supposed to soothe the pain but it would also make me numb for a few minutes.

Just then the brothers walked in Papyrus holding a small box. I grabbed a glass of water that sat next to the table and swallowed the pill gulping down water avoiding the gaze of the skeletons and lizard. Alphys,Sans,and Papyrus talked about where i would stay in a corner of the room far enough that i couldn't hear them. I gazed across the room into the wall and didn't notice when the three monsters walk up to me until Alphys had touched my shoulder. "Human! We have decided that you can stay at our house until you decide to leave or until you are better!" Papyrus said, his cape being blown by a nonexistent wind.

I nodded and climbed off of the table but immediatly fell to my knees. Alphys scurried over and her eyes ran back and forth over my face." I m-must have made a-a mistake. That p-pill was f-for monsters. It m-might have s-side effects like dizziness,nu-numbness, and blu-blurry vision." She explained, straightening her posture now confident that the effects were nothing lethal.

"Then I, The Great Papyrus, shall care for the human until the effects of the medicine is gone as well." The taller skeleton picked me up with his bony arms and i looked towards Sans for help. He wouldnt meet my eye and i couldnt help feeling a bit sad. "Human, while you are in our residence you can rest in Sans' room since he has offered it towards you!" I heard a chuckle and turned as much as i could in the confines of Papyrus' arms to see Sans once again smiling, his face giving nothing away.

Once at the skeletons' house in snowdin Papyrus put me in Sans' bed to rest. I sighed and layed back, trying not to think about what could happen while i was in the brothers' company. I buried my face in the mattress and tried to sleep but i couldnt make my mind be quiet long enough for that to happen. I gave up and grunted in defeat. "Paps told me to give this to you." I jumped and saw Sans standing in a far corner of the room.

(*Don't sneak up on me like that! You scared the living daylights out of me.) I signed, frustrated. He chuckled and handed me the package i saw Papyrus holding earlier. I hesitated but grabbed it despite what my mind was telling me to do. I opened the gift and inside was a neatly folded black jacket with fluff 'round the hood. I nodded my thanks and pulled it on. It was oddly comfy and i almost felt as if i would never take it off.

"You should get some sleep. We're gonna have a long day tommorow." I shook my head and looked at my feet. "Tsk tsk. Seems we've a naughty Frisk who's resisting a-REST." He chuckled. I grinned and punched Sans playfully on the shoulder. "Seriously though, get some sleep."

I sighed and signed(*I can't, and even if i could im not ready for the nighmares to come.) He sighed and plopped next to me on the small mattress making it impossible for us not to touch.

"I'll stay here until you fall asleep unless i'm the one that falls asleep first." He said, eyes closed. I felt my cheeks heat up but nodded nonetheless. I turned onto my side facing away from Sans and closed my eyes. I felt weirdly at peice now that Sans was around. I felt arms gently enclose around me before i finally drifted into much needed sleep.
