It began as a beautiful, perfect day for a picnic. The day was warm, the humidity low, and the sky was full of puffy white clouds, showing only hints of grey. Undyne and Alphys were thrilled, and were halfway to their destination when, suddenly, they sky began to slowly cloud over, that hint of grey getting darker.
"Er," Alphys said softly. "I'm sure it'll just blow over..."
Undyne nodded, squeezing her hand.
However, it became clear that, the closer they got to the park, the darker the skies became. By the time they'd made it, it was already starting to rain.
"Dammit," Alphys muttered, holding the food hamper to her chest. "Let's just go back."
"Hold on, Alphy," Undyne said. She was grinning, and Alphys knew why: she loved the rain. However, that wasn't the only reason why she grinned.
From her bag she pulled out an umbrella. It was big enough for Alphys and the spread of food, and she opened it and handed it over with a proud grin. Alphys took it, staring at Undyne. "How did you know?"
"I didn't," Undyne replied with a grin. "I brought it for shade."
Alphys laughed, unable to help it. Together, they set up the picnic beneath the umbrella, and as Undyne enjoyed the downpour, Alphys enjoyed the shelter.
It was as close to perfect as it could have possibly been. And far more memorable.
