Chapter Two
A few months had passed since the fateful day that Frisk kissed and proclaimed her love for Sans, and to her delight, he professing his mutual feelings. It was the start of another beautiful day for her; every morning she woke up with a smile on her face as she raced to see her skeleton boyfriend either helping Papyrus with breakfast, watching television, or assisting Asgore and Toriel with business regarding monsters and humans.
The young woman raced out of her room and made a hard turn out of the hallway that lead to her bedroom. Still living with her goat mom and dad, she had a pretty spacious living situation. Frisk, Toriel, Asgore, Sans, and Papyrus all lived together in a three-story home. Toriel and Asgore's bedroom resided on the first floor, along with a living room, spacious bathroom, kitchen, and laundry room all placed on the same landing as well.
Papyrus, Frisk, and Sans' bedrooms were all on the second, or middle floor. Coming up from the staircase, a right turn had to be made in which another living room preceded the hallway containing their bedrooms. This living room was very spacious, and had room for two couches, one against the wall that lead to the hallway, and one against the railing from the staircase, as the living room peaked out over the first landing. Frisk often had a wonderful view of the first floor from her favorite place on said couch, as she stared down at anyone that passed through said lower floor.
The second living room also had a large flat screen television, one that Papyrus had been confused as to why they needed such a large t.v., but that Sans had insisted would "give the room surround sound, be perfect for movie nights, and be large enough to play all of the video games they could possibly want".
Thinking about turning on the television to relax, Frisk changed her mind when she sat at her favorite spot on the couch by the railing, and looked up and saw one particular favorite skeleton of hers, appearing to be dozing off on the couch in the first floor, that was directly below the second floor railing.
Frisk giggled to herself as she watched her sleepy boyfriend, and rested her head over her arms on the top of the couch.
Sans had been exhausted from staying up so late the night prior. Papyrus couldn't get to sleep as quick as he usually would during their nightly bedtime stories, and as such, he had spent the whole night until approximately four a.m. in human time, playing puzzles and board games with Papyrus until the taller skeleton had finally worn himself out and fallen asleep.
As such, the usual smell of breakfast was not wafting through the house, and loud snores were still coming from Papyrus' bedroom.
An idea popped into Frisk's head when she realized Sans was still awake, but barely so.
'Heheh…I always surprise him in the morning some way or another, so…'
The young human smirked as she climbed from the couch onto the railing that guarded off people from falling to the floor below. The couch Sans was laying on was positioned directly under where Frisk was perched, and she held onto the rail tightly as she was in a crouching position on top of said rail.
Taking a deep breath, the thought of hugging Sans filled her with determination.
Smiling brightly and giggling happily, Frisk hopped off the railing and let gravity do the rest as she plummeted to the couch below, her hair floating upwards and her night gown flowing everywhere.
Sans was just about to fall asleep when he felt his heart tighten. Waking up instantly, but not moving, he placed one of his hands over his chest and a look of confusion overtook his expression.
'That's weird…' He thought. 'I only get this feeling when the kiddo is in danger…But she should still be asleep.' His confusion was answered though, when he laid back and looked upwards, and saw a smiling and giggling angel literally fall towards him from the heavens above.
Instantly he spazzed out.
"Ohhh hOLY CRAP! FRISK!" He shouted in pure terror for both his life and Frisk's as his left hand shot out and blazed with blue magic, and his eye did the same.
The girl's heart shaped soul showed on her chest and quickly switched from red to blue, as the still giggling girl stopped literally inches from colliding with the skeleton.
Heaving for air and placing his other hand over his heart, Sans let out a sigh of relief and gently lowered the girl to be laying on top of him.
Eye and hand returning to normal, he wrapped his arms around her into a hug, and then his usual smile returned as he smirked as well.
"Gee kid, if I didn't already know the answer, I would say you just fell for me." He said.
Frisk giggled once more into his shoulder and leaned back a little to place a soft kiss on his teeth. Sans returned the kiss happily, and blushed slightly.
'This never gets old…' He thought to himself.
When Frisk pulled away from the kiss, she had a small blush of her own.
"I-I d-did." She spoke out loud. Although she was getting better at using her voice, it was still rare when she did so, and a much enjoyed treat to the short skeleton.
'Every day. I fall for you more, every day.' She signed to him happily.
Chuckling happily, Sans' smile grew as he rubbed the back of his skull.
"Aww c'mon princess, you're gonna make me melt if you keep up with those sweet words. And I thought witches only melt." He continued to smile as he slowly leaned forward to kiss her again.
Just as their lips were about to meet though, well, her lips and his teeth, fate would have it as that was not to be.
For at that moment, a very tired, and an extremely energetic taller and yet younger skeleton came running out of his bedroom, flailing around and tripping over almost everything, and screaming at the top of his nonexistent lungs.
"SAAAAAANNNNNSSSSSSSS! SSAAAAAANNSSS! MY LESS GREAT AS ME AND YET STILL WONDERFUL BROTHERRRRR!" Screamed Papyrus.
As Papyrus started to run down the stairs, he tripped, fell, and tumbled down the entire flight until landing at the bottom, with all of his bones tangled around each other.
Knowing that his brother was not actually hurt, since Papyrus had suffered through falls a LOT worse than that before, Sans let a few snickers pass through as he covered his teeth and tried to look away.
"This…. MEANS NOTHING! THE GREAT PAPYRUS IS A-OKAY!" Papyrus yelled once more.
Untangling himself, the energetic skeleton stood up and dusted himself off.
"Anyways. Ahem." Clearing his voice, he then sprinted towards where Sans and Frisk were laying on the couch, jumped to them midair, and landed on top of Frisk, effectively squishing her in between the two skeleton brothers.
"Oomph!" The air was taken out of her lungs as she tried to arrange herself in a more comfortable position, staring at Sans questioningly.
Sans merely look just as confused himself, and fixed his younger brother with a questioning look.
"Eey…Paps…You know I love you, right?"
Papyrus fixed his brother with a hurt and heartbroken look as small orange tears filled his eye sockets, and he wrapped his bony arms around both Frisk and Sans, effectively sandwiching the poor girl. He had an accusatory look as he spoke in between hiccups from his crying.
"W-Well apparently not enough! My dear brother always knows when I wake up!" He sniffled and pouted.
"A-And when I wake up, he a-always greets me good morning and talks to me! AND YOU DID NEITHER TODAY!" By this point he was a blubbering mess.
"H-HOW COULD YOU P-POSSIBLY FORGET ABOUT YOUR AMAZING YOUNGER BROTHER, THE GREAT PAPYRUS! MAY ASGORE HAVE MERCY ON WHATEVER POOR CHILD'S SOUL YOU DECIDE TO BRING INTO THIS WORLD WITH THE HUMAN NEXT YEAR! YOU CAN'T EVEN REMEMBER YOUR OWN BROTHER!" He said with a huff, before breaking down into more sobs and burying his face into Frisk's back.
At this Sans' usual pinpricks for eyes went as wide as saucers, and a bright blush covered his entire face as he started coughing from his own saliva that he choked on. He could feel his girlfriend's wide eyed stare at him, and a huge blush of her own.
Once he had stopped coughing, Sans cleared his throat before fixing Papyrus with a severely apologetic expression, before moving his arms to wrap around his brother as well.
Chuckling softly, he shook his head and gave him a fond smile.
"Hey Papy. I'm sorry I wasn't there. Once you finally fell asleep, I had a few more errands to take care of, before I could even fall asleep myself. But ah, uh, don'tcha think the whole "child" thing is a little extreme? I-I mean, Frisk and I have only been together a few months…" He trailed off at the end.
Frisk seemed more curious now more than anything, and she was tilting her head in her own thoughts.
'Huh? I can have a baby with him at all…? That's a nice surprise; I figured we would probably have to adopt a child. Not that I wouldn't mind adopting one to begin with, all those children needs loving homes too…But It's nice to know if I can actually have a child with him too.' After finishing that thought, the girl turned to look at Sans with a questioning gaze.
Trying not to make eye contact, knowing the questions his girlfriend would probably have later, Sans waited for Papyrus' response.
Papyrus looked up at his brother and pouted once more.
"You still gotta make it up to me, brother. And why would it be too extreme? You are having a child by next year I assume, correct? If not I will be highly disappointed in you. After all, I, your wonderful and amazing brother, will be the greatest uncle to ever exist!" Papyrus' tears long forgotten, his eyes literally started to gleam and sparkle as he thought of everything he could do with his niece or nephew.
"I will teach them how to cook! How to solve and create puzzles! I'll read to them every night, and fix them the best meals they will ever have the pleasure to experience! And when they are a baby, I could feed them as well! Ooh perhaps I could even tutor them when they have trouble with math, or even their reading!" The taller skeleton became more and more excited with every idea that popped into his head.
Frisk buried her head into Sans' hoodie as she heard everything, her blush returning with a vengeance.
Sans could practically feel the heat radiating off of the girl's cheeks, as his own blush increased as well.
Shaking his head once more and smiling sweetly, he chuckled and held all of them closer.
"That sounds like a great idea, Papyrus. Just let me take over some of those duties sometimes too, though. The little guy or girly might just start calling you "Daddy" instead of me, if you do all that too much."
Papyrus pouted a little but nodded nonetheless.
"I, the Great Papyrus, shall allow this."
Sans smiled and nodded.
"Thank you. Now, to make up for not being there for you when you woke up, how about I whip up you all something to eat." He smiled more.
A cracking sound was heard as Papyrus' eyes widened and he literally propelled himself from the couch and into the kitchen, yelling the whole time.
"THANKS BUT NO THANKS DEAR BROTHER, YOUR COOKING IS WORSE THAN YOUR PUNS. IT'S ALWAYS HALF-BAKED!" The kitchen door opened and closed with such momentum that the frame momentarily shuddered.
Sans blinked a little, then a chuckle erupted from him.
"It seems as if I'm wearing off on him. But is my cooking really that bad? I guess its cause I always make the eggs funny-side up." He snickered at his own joke, and heard Frisk giggle into his hoodie.
They both jumped a little when a plate crashing onto the floor resounded from the kitchen.
"SAAAAANNNSSS! WHY DO YOU DO THIS TO ME?!" An exasperated Papyrus yelled out.
Chuckling even more, Sans looked down at Frisk still buried into his hoodie, and set a hand on her head, gently starting to stroke her hair.
Bending down to whisper lovingly into her ear, he used his other arm to hold her.
"Y'know kiddo…as much as I would love to stay like this forever…you probably have to use the bathroom and I know your morning routine is to take a bath, so I imagine you're probably wanting to do that all."
Frisk peeked her head out to look at him momentarily, before nodding, yawning, and snuggling deeper into him.
Smiling even fonder, Sans shook his head and scooped her into his arms as he stood up and made his way to the master bathroom on the first floor.
"SAAANNS! WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO "USE THE BATHROOM?!" WHY WOULD ANYBODY WANT TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF AN INANIMATE OBJECT!" His curious brother called from the kitchen.
A bead of sweat rolled down his skull as Sans laughed nervously.
"A-Ahh I'll tell you when you're older Papy!" Cursing to himself for forgetting his brother's superb hearing abilities, he quickly made his way to the bathroom.
Once there, he closed the door and sighed in relief. He chuckled softly upon noticing his cute princess sound asleep in his arms.
Heading over to the bathroom counter, he gently set the girl on top of it as he rolled up his sleeves and went to work on setting up her bath.
He turned on the faucet to run the water, making sure that it was not hot or too cold. Once the water started to run, he stood up and walked over to the nearby cabinet, pulling out a towel and washcloth, and then setting the materials on top of another stool to his right.
The bathroom was of grand design, fit for monster (and human as well) royalty of course. Beautiful ceramic tiles lined the floor, and the walls were decorated with completely intrinsic splashes of gold and violet color. A hamper stood by the doorframe, where dirty clothing was to be placed after a bath or shower, to later be washed.
Left of the doorframe, where the bathroom counter resided, an ornate sink structure made its residence, with a dazzling gold rimmed mirror hanging directly above it. The sink counter had a door on its front, which upon opening it revealed a stash of vanilla bean, sugar plum, green apple, and lavender body washes. It also contained shampoos that smelled of roses, honey, cherries and apples, as well as spring waters for the manlier portion of the house. They just dealt with the feminine body washes, as Toriel had never understood why men WOULDN'T want to smell of vanilla or other heavenly scents.
Which basically meant Sans and Papyrus were screwed over on the body wash department, as they didn't have hair, so had no need for shampoo.
Papyrus didn't seem to mind, and often accompanied Toriel to the store to pick out more fruity or floral scents that he thought smelled nice, or that Frisk would enjoy.
Sans, however, didn't mind much as well. It just bothered him whenever Undyne would make one of her unexpected visits, and then proceed to laugh and tease him over his choice of body wash, and then spend half an hour asking if he wanted to borrow her perfume as well.
It was all in good nature, he knew that. But oh quite a few times did he enjoy dunking her with a gaster blaster right to the face.
He went back to the bathtub, checking the water level after having gone to the bathroom counter, and then choosing the sugar plum scented body wash, and rose scented shampoo that he knew Frisk loved and used more times than not.
Sans set the body products on the rim of the bathtub, as he then proceeded to sit on it as well, waiting for the tub to fill completely.
He closed his eye sockets and crossed his arms over his chest as he himself began to doze off. The skeleton hadn't slept at all the entire night, and seeing as it was nearing ten a.m., the morning didn't promise any sleep for him either.
Trying to fight off a yawn, he leaned against the wall structure that enclosed the bathtub from the entrance. Having no sleep at all was a completely new experience for Sans, especially taking in to fact that he is a normally lazy skeleton to begin with, that relishes naps and down time more than anything else.
'Well, besides the kiddo of course…' He found himself thinking, as he dozed more and more.
A soft groan woke him back up however, and he wearily opened his eye sockets once more. Still having his usual smile, he looked at Frisk and waved at her.
"Hey there sleeping beauty. Finally get enough shut eye?" He tiredly asked.
Frisk looked at him and quirked her head before smiling and nodding. 'Thank you for carrying me, and setting this up.' She signed.
Sans chuckled and nodded. "Not a problem."
Turning to the bathtub, he shut off the water as it was filled enough. He stood up and walked to her, picking her up again and then moving her to sit on the rim of the bathtub, where he previously was.
Straightening, he gave his usual cheery smile.
"I'm assuming you have the rest covered?" He spoke.
Frisk nodded and smiled, but then looked confused about something. "Ahh…"
'I'm wondering about something though…' She started to sign. 'How come Papyrus didn't know what it meant to use the bathroom? Do you guys not process food or liquids like we do? And if not…How come all the bathrooms we have, mom bought with toilets?'
A bead of sweat rolled down Sans' head once more as he chuckled, then rubbed the back of his head with his hand.
"You see, kiddo, you are right about something. Monsters don't process food and water and such, like humans do. While humans expel the materials they consume, monsters do not. Instead of expelling the food and everything, it gets converted into pure energy that we store for later." He tapped his chin in thought, trying to look for a comparison.
"While humans also gain energy from what they consume, monsters gain every ounce of the sustenance, and the energy we gained from it becomes our magical energy later on. Much in the same way humans need food and beverages to survive, monsters also need the same thing; otherwise we can't use our magic very well." He smiled and continued.
"Monsters are born with a set median supply of magical energy that manifests within our magic itself. A larger median that a monster is born with, results in a stronger monster in general. This is decided entirely by luck, much like luck and fate decides the kind of stuff humans are better at than others. The monsters that have a larger magical energy median were probably what you called "bosses" when you first fell down into the Underground, and you had more difficulty dodging their attacks, along with taking larger damage when you tried to spare them." The skeleton spoke. Frisk nodded in understanding.
"A monster's magic median will never run out, unless they die of course. The overall performance of a monster's magic can be benefitted and strengthened, with things such as training, food, and adequate sleep however, with food being a main factor. If a monster does not receive enough energy from food, their magical energy will be depleted back to its magical median, which makes them weaker than normal." Sans started to chuckle at the awed expression on Frisk's face.
"So, in conclusion princess, monsters and humans do process food and drinks differently. We use it as a pure energy supply and do not get rid of it, while you use it as a base energy supply, and eventually turn it into waste to be expelled." Frisk nodded once more and nuzzled closer to Sans, lovingly wrapping her arms around him and hugging him.
Sans chuckled at his next thought. "It comes with benefits though. We're less likely to get in a crappy situation, than you guys are." He laughed even more and nuzzled Frisk as well.
"Now, the reason why there are so many toilets in the house is because Toriel kept her thoughts of you specifically in mind when choosing a house above ground, just like Asgore did. They obviously wanted their daughter to have everything a human would need, be as comfortable as possible, and for you to live your life like a normal human would, as best as they could provide for you to do so. It's not so often a human becomes monster royalty, after all."
Frisk smiled softly at this and giggled happily, nodding. 'I love my mama and papa, and all of you guys so much.' She thought to herself.
Sighing in content, the two sat there until Sans eventually pulled away and bent down to give her a kiss.
Pulling away after a few seconds, he smiled widely and started to head towards the door.
"I'll be downstairs if you need me, kiddo. Enjoy your bath." He said.
The somewhat tired girl nodded and smiled, waving at him as he left.
vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv
Sans headed out of the bathroom and passed by the kitchen, smelling boiling pasta and tomato sauce.
'Heh, guess it is closer to lunch than it is breakfast.' He thought to himself, realizing it was past eleven when he looked at a nearby clock.
Only one destination rang clear in his mind as he walked through the massive house.
'T.V. Couch. SLEEP.' Hoping to get at least an hour of sleep before Frisk was done, or Papyrus needed his help for something, the now very tired skeleton practically raced to the couch. He would have used a short cut, but being as tired as he was now would only cause more problems than it would benefits.
The shorter skeleton almost made it to the couch. Keyword being almost.
Toriel had rushed out of the study room nearby and was looking around frantically. Upon spotting the skeleton, she rushed over and grabbed his hand and started dragging him to study room of which she had previously been.
"Sans! I'm so sorry to drag you off like this, but it's an emergency! We're on the phone with Alphys and she needs your help extracting a new chemical formula that she had found that's crucial to how humans survive! We've launched a project to learn more about the human race to better understand them, to be able to help them of course, and she needs your help breaking the code!"
'Oh boy.' Sans thought as he was being dragged. 'I'm never gonna get my sleep, am I?'
vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv
A few hours later and Sans found himself practically dragging himself to the kitchen table for an overdue lunch, which upon entering, looked like a second lunch for Frisk. Papyrus was in there as well, gushing over Frisk asking for seconds of his spaghetti.
'All that rushing, just to figure out how to make water and salt…' He begrudgingly thought to himself.
When Sans entered the room, Papyrus and Frisk looked over and noticed he looked absolutely exhausted. He normally always walked slow and took things slowly, wanting to enjoy the small things in life, but now he was walking with a limp and he had beads of sweat constantly rolling down his face. His eyes were also half lidded as well, and the glowing pinpricks seemed to be duller than usual.
Sitting down at his usual spot at the table, Sans tried to avoid the worried stares that came his way as he shakily picked up a fork to twist spaghetti onto, from a plate that Papyrus had set out not too long ago.
"Brot….Brother..? Are you alright?" Papyrus worriedly sat down next to him and placed a gloved hand on his shoulder.
Frisk signed something that Sans hadn't been able to focus on, so she shakily spoke up.
"S-Sans…Y-You l-look sick…" She was terribly frightened. Never, in her whole life of knowing him, had she ever seen him this way.
Sans looked up at the both of them and gave a shaky smile.
"I-I'm fine guys…But what's the matter with you two? Y-You both look like you've seen a ghost." He chuckled tiredly.
The doorbell rang, announcing with it a visitor to be attended to.
Standing up shakily, Sans slowly started to walk out of the kitchen and towards the door.
"I'll….get it…." He said. Papyrus and Frisk both tried to stop him before he got too far, but it was too late.
With a loud thud, Sans collapsed to the floor, hitting his knees on the way down.
"BROTHER! SANS!"
Papyrus gasped and rushed to his side, as Frisk did as well. However, she stopped dead in her tracks when she got next to him, and saw blood dripping out of his mouth.
Her heart suddenly began to ache, tremor, and tighten violently, and she felt like all of the oxygen had been pounded out of her lungs. She had never felt anything like it before, and the red heart indicating her soul began to glow on her chest, as Sans' did as well.
The two souls were beating out of sync at first, until the girl noticed, looking at both of them that they started to equalize and both souls started to beat in the same rhythm.
With tears in her eyes, Frisk collapsed next to Sans and gathered him protectively in her arms. For once, her voice was not quiet.
"SANS!" Her voice echoed endlessly throughout the household.

A/N: So how was that? Heheh cliffhanger~~ X3 I really hope you guys all enjoyed this newest chapter! And also...I am really not used to how things work on this website XD I'm used to wattpad, and I didn't post stuff there but I still knew how to go about the operations better than this website XD So I'm very sorry if it just sent out an alert I posted a new chapter...Only to find nothing there ^-^; I thought you go to "publish new chapter" first and everything and ugghhh...Slowly but surely I am figuring things out! :D
Anyways, time for review responses! :D
Team Wingless- Thank you so so much for taking the time to review! Yeah, I figured I probably should have split the first chapter up, but when I originally started it, I didn't have many ideas to continue it until later on, so I sorta posted it in a way that if I chose to continue it, I could, but I still got the longer idea of a one-shot through :3 I don't know why, I just like to be very descriptive in my wording, so I tend to write a lot more than what I imagine some people would like to see all at once ^-^; Sorry about that! When I'm further along in the story, and FINALLY used to how fanfiction works, then I'll try to go back and fix everything to be easier to read and everything :3 For now I'm thinking of making each chapter 3000-4000 words, and then when it's all said in done, fixing it :) Regardless, I'm glad to hear I didn't have too many spelling or grammar errors! I went back through the chapter many times, so I'm glad it paid off :D Again, thank you!
Carla- I FEEL YA GIRL! I love this ship so much too! It's sad to see it doesn't have a larger fanbase, and then there are people that fight and say it's not right or whatever...I can definitely see where they're coming from, I wouldn't support a morally wrong ship either, but Toby Fox has said that the character can be whatever you want them to be (And in all honesty I've always imagined Frisk to be around 15 or older), and any gender as well. He doesn't go on to mention Sans' age, but with the way he dresses and acts, I figure he's probably 18, give or take a couple years, in the game as well :) SO I TOOK ADVANTAGE OF THE CREATOR'S LENIENCE MWAHAHAH and aged up both characters to be fair :3 Sans' age is a secret for now, well probably not much of one, but it'll be revealed later on :D And oh Papyrus' age is definitely a kicker in this story! XD Anyways thank you very much for taking the time to post such an awesome and great review! :3 and #Fransfoevarr for me as well X3
Marie- Here ya go, dear! Another part! (Which, don't worry, will be followed with plenty to come X3) And awww thank you so much! I'm so glad to hear you really like my fanfic! But it's like your favorite?! Wow, I don't know what to say! That means more than words could ever speak to me! That's so sweet, and I'm very touched and appreciative! Thank you so so soooo very much! All of your guys' words mean the world to me in itself, and I'm so very happy you guys are enjoying my story X3 Good luck on your day as well, and I hope you have a wonderful day too! Stay tuned, I'm gonna try to post a new chapter at least every other day, until summer tasks I usually have to do catch up with me! But once again, thank you! :D
Haha thanks to everyone that has followed, favorited, or reviewed my story! I hope you guys stay with me and continue to like and enjoy what I post, and join me on what will sure to be an amazing story! (Again, so many ideas flowing! :3) See you guys next chapter!
