Drowsy

Day ten of Fluffbuary and I chose the prompt "Drowsy." Just a bit of fluff with Chara being a great girlfriend and Sans being sleepy and adorable.

...

Chara knew it had been a long, hard week for Sans. He had been juggling college classes and spending endless hours helping his dad and Alphys in the lab with a possible cure for the Amalgamates. Whenever she had talked to him on the phone Saturday morning, the poor guy had sounded ready to drop. Unfortunately, she couldn't make his work any less, but she had a plan to help.

He came over for their date night, his hoodie even more rumpled than normal and bags under his sockets. "Hey, Care. Ready to go to Grillby's?" he asked through a yawn.

"Actually, you sounded tired, so I brought the Grillby's to us, and Frisk made this amazing Black Forest cake for dessert." Chara said with a smile, leading him inside, where she had set up some TV trays and plated the food nicely. "And I found this great looking comedy movie on Netflix, so I figured we could watch it tonight. That sound okay?"

Sans smiled. "Sounds great."

...

And partway through the movie, Sans did exactly what she knew he would. It started with drowsy blinks, though he tried to force himself to stay awake. She just cuddled him closer, letting him rest on her shoulder, and smiled as she felt him slowly grow heavier and heavier as he snuggled into her with a soft yawn. Slowly, peacefully, he fell asleep in her arms. She muted the movie so it wouldn't disturb him and held him close, watching him sleep.

He always looked so cute when he slept, his eye sockets shut tight with the cutest little crinkle, and a peaceful, soft smile on his face, snoring softly with little huffs as he shifted to snuggle even closer. She stroked his skull and he smiled even more, nuzzling her in his sleep. She could have squealed at how adorable he was, but she didn't want to wake him. Instead she kept her arm around him, leaned her head back, and slowly drifted off too to the sound of his soft breathing.

And that's how Toriel found them when she got home from her own date night with Asgore, and she couldn't help but smile. She grabbed a blanket and gently tucked it around them, careful not to wake them. "Sleep well, my children."
