QUESTIONS, LIES, AND LAYING LOW

Since the lie Frisk made up, the cops handled Sans in a more gentle manner. Almost apologetically.

"Sorry sir. But if all goes well you should be able to return back home to your adopted daughter in no time," said one of the cops as they opened the back door to their vehicle for Sans to get in.

Sans literally cannot remember the previous run, so all he knows is suddenly Frisk was calling him dad. Frisk would have to think of a way to trick Alphys into erasing his own memories, and have him create a device that makes him a true gentleman. It wasn't going to be easy. Thankfully the cops had allowed Frisk one last hug which she took as an opportunity to slip a note in his jacket which he read on the ride secretly.

"Dear Sans, your ability to remember previous runs has been transferred to Papyrus so your confusion of me calling you dad is understandable. The car ride won't be long enough to have you read about the previous run, so I'll tell you this instead: go with the story of how you see me as your daughter, nothing more and nothing less. Lie when necessary. We are going to have to lay low for a while until we can figure something out. After you're done reading this, swallow the note.

Love, Frisk."

He was shocked to learn his ability to remember timelines has been transferred to Papyrus. In a way it was a relief to him so that way any bad thing can be easily forgotten. However, it scared him for his brother. His brother will never be innocent again and will have depression and anxiety. One of the things that had brought him and Frisk together was because of the fact that he could remember previous timelines. He wondered if it was possible to transfer it back to him. Next time he sees core Frisk he will have to ask, if he can remember to. They made it to the police station where they took Sans to a cell with a tough looking fish monster inside. Sans didn't look like he belonged in jail. He wore khakis with a black belt, a shirt that was tucked in neatly, along with a tan overcoat and his play glasses. The fish monster got out of his bed, walked over to Sans, and got real close to him.

"What are you in here for, ?" asked the monster.

"W-well, someone framed me for having a romantic relationship with my adopted kid," said Sans.

Even though he is aware of his own power, the fact remains that he has 1 defense. One shot kills him.

"I slept with my wife's sisters, her aunts, her mother, and her grandmother on her deathbed. Did you sleep with your adopted kid? Cause if you did, I ain't gonna judge you," said the monster.

He wanted to confide in this monster that he and Frisk were going to get married once everything was cleared up, but he didn't know this monster and didn't know if this monster would rat him out.

"No. I love my adopted kid platonically. Like she's my own," lied Sans.

"Buddy, I can tell you're lying about the second part. They are going to hook you up to a lie detector test. So if you wanna get out of here and one day screw your adopted kid, I suggest you use that mirror and work on your lying skills," said the monster.

Sans gulped. He never had to lie about loving someone before. Probably because this is the first time he has ever been in love with someone.

"Can you help me? I don't want to 'screw her'. But I do love her and hope to spend the rest of my life with her," begged Sans.

The fish monster with tattoos laughed.

"Of course I can help you. I'm a master when it comes to lying," said the fish.

Sans and the fish monster didn't get any sleep. They spent the whole night and morning prepping Sans for the lie detector test. Then, the time came.

"Sans? We're ready for you," said a cop.

Sans looked rough.

"Geez buddy you ok? The stress got to ya huh?" asked the cop.

"Yeah. I was really stressed out. This man kept me company so I'm very thankful for him being here," said Sans.

That wasn't a lie. He was indeed stressed and he was indeed thankful for the fish monster being there. If he hadn't been there, Sans would have failed at lying when necessary. Sure enough, they strapped him up to the lie detector. But it was a bit different. It was a virtual reality where they made a virtual Frisk and are going to test him. They put the helmet on and the test began.

Sans was in an open field filled with Frisk's favorite flowers, dandelions. Then, he heard faint laughter. He turned around and saw Frisk in a white gown dancing through the field. His heart would have skipped a beat if he didn't know he was on a mission to get back to the real Frisk. But he steeled his nerves as she approached him.

"Sans, do you love me?" asked virtual Frisk.

"Like the proudest father in the world," lied Sans.

Virtual Frisk looked sad and her hands went down to the edge of her dress.

"You sure? Wouldn't you like to sneak a peek?" asked Frisk.

This was easy for Sans since his relationship with her was never physical to begin with. So he didn't even have to lie on this one.

"I'm sure and no. You keep yourself covered," replied Sans.

Virtual Frisk then got close to him.

"I wanna kiss! Gimme a kiss, Sansy!" cutely demanded Frisk.

Since this was virtual he knew he couldn't physically grab her head and turn it so he could peck her on the cheek. This was a lie detector test after all.

"On the cheek?" asked Sans.

Frisk giggled.

"No silly! On my pink lips," said Frisk.

"That isn't appropriate," sternly said Sans.

"Sans, I feel hot. I want you to touch my breasts," panted Frisk.

"No. I see you like my own daughter," said Sans.

After a few more tests from virtual Frisk, the simulation was over and the cops unhooked Sans from the machine.

"Okay, sir. You're good to go. You got a 100% so you're clean. You won't have to go in front of the judge," said a cop.

"Ah, thank you," said Sans.

The cop led Sans to his vehicle where they took him home. The fish monster watched Sans walk out the building and he felt proud of Sans.

"Is this what it feels like to be a father?" the fish monster asked himself.

Sans walked in the door, but the cop followed. Sans and everyone else was confused.

"Uh, what's this about?" asked Frisk.

"Naturally, the Queen made a new law to make sure we catch the liars by spending one week in their home after they pass a lie detector test. The simple truth is there are monsters who are so good at lying that the test cannot detect them. Don't worry, I won't be rude while I'm here," said the cop.

Frisk went to the bathroom and saved. Needless to say she was a little scared since she didn't think this would happen. Telling Sans what happened would have to wait. Sans asking core Frisk about the transferring memory would have to wait as well. Papyrus and Mettaton decided they would stay. But, the cop wasn't having that.

"It needs to be just me and them here. You can come over to visit like normal, but you can't live here just because I'm living here temporarily," said the cop.

"Darling, I'm the underground's star. If you arrest me for staying, who's going to show up on TV?" asked Mettaton.

"Just because you are the underground's star doesn't mean I cannot arrest you. Queen Toriel will find someone to replace you if need be," said the cop.

Papyrus and Mettaton left the house on that note, silently hoping nothing slips up while the cop is there. Living with them for a week meant he would also be attending school with them. But he would leave at the time Sans does which is usually a little later than when Frisk leaves. That night, Frisk made dinner. The cop, who was out of his uniform and in some pajamas, sat at the table. It was awkward, but soon, it felt like he wasn't even there. If Frisk wasn't on constant guard, she would have slipped up and flirted with Sans. The cop was good at going unnoticed, and he knew it himself. Frisk just had to remind herself to lay low for one week. After Sunday passed, her and Sans could behave like normal in private.

Dinner was quiet until...

"I know you guys usually probably talk a lot at dinner right?" asked the cop, curious.

Usually, dads and daughters talk during dinner time.

"Well, tonight we don't really have much to talk about what with my dad getting over the fact he was accused of an atrocious act. I'm giving him time to process that shock," said Frisk.

The cop nodded after thinking about it.

"Alright, I guess that makes sense," said the cop.

"What's your name?" asked Frisk.

"Ben," replied the cop, Ben.

He was a blue dinosaur monster. He was pretty attractive for a monster. But to Frisk, Sans was mouth watering attractive. She almost slapped herself for literally drooling when she realized she could say it was because the food was so good. After dinner was over, Sans gathered the plates and did the dishes.

"So, I assume Frisk sleeps in that room and you sleep in the other?" asked Ben.

"I did, but my bed broke down and we were going to buy me a new one but then the jail thing happened. So, I'm gonna have to sleep in my dad's bed tonight," lied Frisk.

"Guess I'm coming too then," said Ben.

Frisk expected that to happen, which is why she wasn't at all shocked when he said it. Ben was expecting some sort of reaction like that, but because she and Sans didn't react in any way, his suspicion of them was getting lower. He took a note of it. Technically the bed was big enough for three people. Sans took his usual side, Frisk took the other side, and Ben slid right in the middle and he had with him a teddy bear.

"You sleep with a stuffed animal?" asked Frisk.

"I get lonely at night sometimes and need to cuddle something," said Ben.

"Me too. I wish I had a stuffed animal now," said Frisk.

"You can hold me if you need. I'm not weird, just a fellow cuddler who understands the need to hold something at night," said Ben.

Frisk felt weird about that idea so she just hugged herself. Ben shrugged, squeezed his bear, and fell asleep. What shocked Sans and Frisk the most, was when in Ben's sleep, he grabbed both of them at once. Sans felt like bursting out laughing and so did Frisk. It was pretty comical. What made it even more comical was when Ben started muttering in his sleep. Getting up in the morning was awkward for Sans and Frisk, but because it was part of his job Ben felt no awkwardness and instead went to take a quick 2 minute shower and got dressed in his uniform. Frisk took her 10 minute shower next and got dressed in her outfit for the day, and Sans took a 5 minute shower and put on his teaching clothes and some good smelling cologne.

"So what's for breakfast?" asked Ben.

It took everything Sans and Frisk had from glaring at the non helpful cop who sat at the table with his hands folded patiently.

"Sunny side up eggs and toast spread with apple jelly. Plus a glass of orange juice," said Frisk.

Ben started to drool since the breakfast sounded really good to him. Rolling her eyes, she went into the kitchen to start cooking the eggs. Sans came out of their room straightening his tie and putting on his fake glasses before realizing what that would do to Frisk so he shook his head slightly to himself and put the glasses away. Then he walked down the stairs and went into the kitchen to get a bottle of ketchup.

"Good morning Frisk," said Sans as he opened the refrigerator, knelt down and secretly blew Frisk a kiss.

Frisk almost blushed before she remembered Ben being at the table and could easily see her. She had to remain calm. But it was hard when Sans was being downright sexy! She turned to go to a corner in the kitchen, and she saved. She had to get something out of her system, but sadly Sans won't remember a thing since she will have to load once she gets this out of her system. Frisk walked over to Sans who had shut the refrigerator door. Sans was confused since Frisk was making no effort to mask her "needy" face. Ben had looked up and was observing while sipping his coffee. Sans was looking quite fearful, but Frisk was looking bold and brave and...determined. She planted her lips on Sans and wrapped her arms around him. Sans was flailing his arms and freaking out. Ben sputtered his coffee and was taking pictures as evidence of what is happening before him. Frisk didn't want to end the kiss, but she knew she would have to in order to breathe. When she broke the kiss, Sans' whole face was blue and he slowly slid onto the floor while leaning against the refrigerator. Before Ben and Sans could say or do anything, she loaded back to before she did anything. It was a blessing this time that Sans didn't remember. But, something was different. Sans couldn't look at Frisk and his face was blue! He remembered! Frisk was so confused but played along. Actually, she was extremely happy Sans could remember things again. Core Frisk gave a letter to Frisk before disappearing back into her area.

Dear Frisk,

I restored Sans' memory, but I know in the long run it will benefit everybody if Papyrus is also able to remember past events as well. It will bring you all closer in fact. Your power is causing all these changes because you yourself are a teenager and are going through changes yourself. These changes will stop once you reach 18.

Sincerely,

Core Frisk.

Frisk smiled, folded it neatly and put it in her bra. She served the food. Sans was still in the kitchen because he isn't able to get rid of his blush. Ben didn't seem to notice anything since Frisk was at the table. The week flew by kinda awkwardly but Ben was finally on his way out the door for good. Or so they thought.

"You guys have nothing to worry about! I feel as if we had all bonded together and I feel like your friend. Do you mind if I pop in every now and then?" asked Ben.

"Sure, but as I tell all my friends, please call before you show up as it is rude to pop in unannounced," said Frisk.

Frisk knew if Sans had said it, it would have looked suspicious. But for her, a teenage girl, to suggest that, it wouldn't be suspicious at all.

"Well of course. I'm not a rude man. I only stayed here a week because it was my job. Since Sans is cleared there would be no need for me to pop up unexpectedly," said Ben.

They said their goodbyes and Ben left.

"So, what will happen when we come out with our relationship to the underground when I'm an adult?" asked Frisk.

"What do you mean?" asked Sans.

"Well, everyone now thinks you and me have a normal father and daughter relationship for me being your adopted daughter. We can't just out of the blue say 'we're in love and getting married!'", explained Frisk.

Sans then understood the damage that could cause.

"You're right. Were you right to have gone through with the forced pregnancy just to give the child to another family or us possibly raising it?" asked Sans.

"Yeah. But, my last save point was before I kissed you. The only way to get back to that point is to reset and go through everything all over again. I might end up having to reset just for that if we can't get married, Sans," said Frisk.

The thought terrified her. She didn't want to reset back to being a twerpy 10 year old again who just fell down to the underground. But, she knew she could do it. She had journals which she recorded everything in. All she would have to do is study them religiously, reset, and do everything over again, except for allowing Sans to be arrested. Sans squeezed her hand.

"Hey, I'd be able to remember everything. So I could help you out if need be," said Sans.

"If I do reset, you would have to date Toriel again knowing you're dating her so you could be on good terms with her for being with me. She trusts you to be with me because she got to get to know you when you two dated," winced Frisk.

It would be the one time Sans would have to use someone to achieve a certain goal. Frisk was used to it since using people ended up having a good effect for the greater good, and almost always the used person would never find out they were being used for the greater good. But Frisk felt bad asking Sans to use Toriel just to be with her. It made her stomach twist in knots from the guilt of even suggesting it.

"Kid, if I get to spend my life with you, I'll date all the women in the world just to be with you," said Sans.

Frisk's heart warmed. She felt so special. She felt as if she could count on Sans for anything. Chara appeared in the room.

"You might have to reset?! But things were getting good!" complained Chara.

"It's just 6 years in the past. As long as I keep busy, time will fly by like nothing," shrugged Frisk.

6 years felt like an eternity for Frisk. Even though it seems she got to age 16 really fast, she knew it would be agonizingly long if she had to do it all again.

"Frisk, I used to be part of you. I know you feel it would be too long," said Chara.

"Look at it this way. Do you want the bad ending where we don't end up together, or the one where even though it'll take going back in time to achieve we do end up together?" asked Frisk.

"Well...obviously the one where you two end up together. I'm a hardcore Frans shipper! I want my Frans!" said Chara as he held a childish temper tantrum.

"I am too! I just have to do a Soriel to get to Frans," said Sans.

"And I have to witness the Soriel," shuddered Frisk.

Chara was finally able to relax and understand things from their perspective. When he calmed down, he went back to his resting place. Sans and Frisk grabbed each other and pulled each other close, and nuzzled nose and nose hole lovingly. The door swung open and Ben walked through.

"I totally forgot my duffle bag upstairs, I-" he started but stopped short when he saw Sans and Frisk in the tight hold they had each other in. Ben sighed, and put his hands on his hips like a disappointed parent.

"I...I thought you...why?" asked Ben as he took out a pair of handcuffs.
