Chapter 8: First Date: Part 2

*INK'S P.O.V*

The feel of his lips on mine was a feeling that I never wanted to let go, but sadly it had to end sometime otherwise we'd both pass out from lack of oxygen. I slowly pulled back and admired his face. His expression was always so soft and loving whenever he looked at me. I felt like the world to him and I'm sure that's exactly how he saw me. I looked up into his eyes and I smiled even brighter at the amount of pure love and adoration they held. His eyes were always like this whenever he looked at me.

But on that one night when he woke up screaming for my help, all I saw was terror in his eyes. He looked so helpless that night. I didn't know what to do. He stared at me and his smile brought me back into reality, his kind eyes sparkling with mirth as leaned in again, pressing our foreheads together.

"I love you, Ink." He said quietly. I smiled and curled up in his arms.

"I love you too Error….. It's hard to believe that almost a year ago we were fighting with one another about the AU's…. You even broke my arm once, " I giggled softly before sighing, "And now look at us. We're working together against this corruption…. We're lovers…." I whispered softly. I smiled up at him and expected to see him smiling back.

He wasn't.

My smile turned into a frown and I gently cupped his cheek.

"Error? What's the matter? We said we'd put that all behind us." I assured. We had this discussion back when we first decided we'd start dating. He felt awful about destroying all the AU's and it took me a few hours to convince him it was okay.

Even then, he still felt horrible.

He looked up at me and frowned.

"Inky, it's not okay. I was just being selfish and cruel….. do you even know why I was destroying everything?" He asked, being somewhat irritable. I furrowed my brows and snapped back at him.

"No, I don't. You never told me." I hissed, immediately regretting my tone as I saw him flinch and slump over. He looked up at me with a darkened expression.

"I wasn't supposed to be an error. I was supposed to be in an AU. I was supposed to be a normal Sans just like everyone else but something decided to mess with my coding and my entire AU crashed. Everything was gone except for me." He looked down and clenched his fists, " Every time I saw an AU I was overcome with so much pain and jealousy that I snapped. They had something I could only dream of having and I thought that if I couldn't have it then they couldn't have it either." He ended his story with a major glitch shuddering throughout his body, making me yelp slightly.

"E-Error, I'm so sorry…. If I could make AU's myself, I would help you get them back but…. I-I can't…." I looked down in shame. I tried to recreate lost AU's a few times but they ended up being monstrosities. Only the creativeness of the creator can make an AU. All I can do is help protect them and keep the creativity flowing through their heads.

"If I could help, I would…" I said softly, setting my hand on his cheek. He looked up at me and smiled in defeat.

"I know you would…. That's the kind of person you are. You're sweet and thoughtful." He said, setting his hand over mine. I smiled and pulling him back in for a kiss, humming in content when I felt his lips move against mine. His hands moved off mine and I felt his arms wrap around my waist as I brought my arms around his neck in return. He pushed me onto the ground and we both lied there on the ground under the stars, kissing each other for what seemed like house before we finally decided to stop. He stared at me with a loving look in his eyes before he stood up and held his hand out towards me.

"I thought that was a pretty successful date…." He said to me, smiling brightly. I took his hand and smiled warmly, letting him help me up.

"I think it was too." I agreed, letting him lead me out of our little spot as we walked around Outertale. He smiled proudly at what he had accomplished and skipped forward, unaware of the black snakelike creature slinking out before him. My eyes widened and I shoved him back.

"Error!" I yelled pushing him away as the creature pounced, slinking up around my legs. Error's eyes were wide with shock.

"Ink!" He yelled and ran forward in a desperate attempt to help me but I was being suffocated by this creature as it wrapped around my neck.

The corruption.

I struggled against it but all I felt was weakness spreading throughout my body until I felt on of the creature's limbs rammed through my eye, making me scream as a rush of heat and pain spread through me. I felt myself going unconscious as I called out desperately for my love.

"E-Error! Error help!" I cried, too weak to do anything myself. I felt the creature hiss in what sounded like a laugh before I heard him yell.

"Ink! Ink!" I heard him scream. One final thought came through my mind as I closed my eyes and felt myself drift away.

Error...

Woo! Another chapter out! I'm really tired, so It may be a bit shorter than I'd like it to be but eh. Like I said, I'm tired so I don't really care.

If you read the reviews I took some of your suggestions and whoop! The corruption comes for Ink!

Leave any suggestion you want or just how you feel about the story so far, yada yada yada and have a nice day!

Stay Wicked!
