Ugh, I kind of didn't want to do this... It's weird... Why can't they just... I don't know? Love each other and everything would be perfect?

Well, maybe that would be kind of a weird outcome to the story... But still... That's so hard for me... Well, hope you enjoy

You sat there and waited. Waited for what felt like hours, knowing that you will have to talk to Sans again, and very soon too. You have to go over for dinner, after all. You promised Papyrus and he is someone that you wouldn't want to let down because of your uncomfortable feelings.

You really liked Sans. You only didn't know if you liked him THAT way. And you didn't know how to find out about that. How could someone find out if they're in love or if they just like someone because they're nice or something? Sans was one of the first few people which were sincerely nice to you except for Sally's family and your parents.

So how should you find out the difference between liking someone as a friend and liking someone as something more than just friends? You didn't know. You hoped to find out about that soon. Maybe you should ask Sally about that when she comes by in two weeks. She's got a boyfriend for more than three years now, after all. She should know the answer for that. And to top that off, Sally won't judge you for liking a monster or even start teasing you about it.

Well, maybe a little teasing now that you think about it but she truly is the best person someone could talk to about such threads. And you trusted her. Well, obviously, she is your best friend, after all.

As you thought to yourself Alphys waved her hand in front of your eyes.

"H-hey, if you'd like to w-we can go up now to s-start the tests. S-Sans is already there," she told you and you nodded nervously before you got up and followed her.

So that's it now. You will have to talk to Sans after this if you don't want to lose him as a friend. Maybe it would be easier if you knew what exactly you feel about Sans, but maybe it would be even worse if you knew how exactly you felt.

You didn't know what to do next as you went inside the lab where you saw Sans standing in front of a large machine while tipping something down on it. So you just followed Alphys and gave Sans a silent greeting as Alphys told you to go behind the machine.

Alphys had told you before that you needed to do some of the tests from last time again so that Sans too could see the results. And so you did go behind the machine again and you waited. This time it felt even longer than the last time. You could hear Sans and Alphys talking about your soul, which made you kind of nervous because Sans was here and could see it.

However, you didn't know why it made you feel nervous at all. Before, you never felt nervous with Sans. You felt safe before. But now that the kiss happened you're in the most nervous state around him than someone could imagine. Maybe it is because you're afraid to loose him as a friend? You didn't know. There was so much you didn't understand now.

It wasn't like that was your first kiss but you still feel like a teenager, who just had their first kiss with someone they don't even know properly. If you think about it that way, it is almost reasonable that you feel so nervous. But there is still that little part of you that thinks maybe Sans is now disgusted with you. And that thought made you nervous about what is about to happen next.

After a while, Alphys called you out and you went towards the two of them. They now told you something about stats and it seemed that your... LV is at one, your EXP is at zero (you hoped that this is a good sign but Sans and Alphys reassured you that this is the best you could have) Your DEF is at fifty, and your ATK is at thirty-eight. You didn't know what these stats were supposed to mean but you didn't really want to ask so you just nodded. It did sound like video game stats now that you think about it.

After all the tests were over Sans had off work and waited for you at the door as you said your goodbyes to Alphys. Seemed as if you really were going to the dinner today. You and Sans would need to talk about things real soon. You were kind of afraid of what's going to happen next.

It was a terrible and uncomfortable silence as you two went outside the building after Sans changed in the change room. You didn't know how to start the conversation. Gladly Sans spoke up first

"soo... how're ya feeling?" he asked "I-I'm fine," you told him and fastly added "and y-you?"

"fine" the was a short pause of more uncomfortable silence.

"well, about yesterday..." he started

"Y-yeah?" wow, you really were nervous. It was kind of cold outside but since you still were wearing Sans' hoodie (yeah, you still wore it, even after all this, his hoodie is just too comfortable and warm) however, you weren't slightly shaking because of the cold. You were plainly nervous.

"well... i suppose... we should talk 'bout that," he said slowly. You just nodded because you didn't trust your voice at this point.

"heh... um... don't know how to start this..." there is a short pause before you both blurt out "I'm sorry for kissing you," at the same time. You stare at each other for a moment before erupting in nervous and relieved laughter.

So he wasn't mad at you, in fact, he blamed himself for it. You were kind of relieved but you needed to talk this out for real.

"I-I'm sorry, I should have just w-waked you up without trying to turn around. I just felt really weird and as time went by and I needed to get to work... I... I got nervous and tried to wake you up... I didn't think it would end up this way..." you stumbled over your words.

"'m really sorry too. normally i only grab to pillows while i sleep and not persons... but... you're not mad at me are ya?" he asked unsurely.

You shook your head "I'm not mad at you..." you reassured him. He let out a sigh of relieving at that. "'m glad."

"I-I wouldn't want to lose a friend like you, Sans..." you smiled at him nervously. His smile, however, seemed kind of... forced? You couldn't tell why? He seemed relieved as you told him that you're not mad at him... Maybe you said something wrong?

"E-everything alright, Sans?" you asked him, not knowing if you really wanted to hear the answer to that one.

For a while, it seemed as if he wouldn't answer until finally, he did. And you were completely and throughout shocked by his answer. It was almost too quiet to hear but you somehow managed to hear it.

"...i don't wanna be in the friend zone... i think... i love ya (y/n)..." he stated in a little less than a whisper.

You really were shocked. You didn't expect that, at all.

Kind-of cliffhanger? I suppose... See ya all next time?

Poor sansy feels friend zoned... The reader should figure out her feelings soon. Otherways poor Sansy might end up... Sad? No like really sad...

To be honest, I'm already thinking about rewriting the end of this chapter because I don't really like how it came out... We'll see... maybe I'm too lazy to actually do it so... I don't know?

Ehh... Until next time!
