Asriel X Shy!Reader

-10-

(Y/N) POV — a month later (home)

It was a week until the winter formal.
I'm not sure if I want to go or not.
Asriel hasn't said to much to me about it.
"Dad, come on! Don't be like that!" , I heard Abby say.
Ugh, am I seriously hearing another one of there arguments?
"The answer is NO. You're not going to the winter formal with that.. negative influence." , Abby's Dad snapped.
"You know my friend, Ken!" , Abby snapped.
OMG! Shut up!
I got my phone out and texted Azzy <3.
Me: There at it again. They need to stop arguing so loudly and close to Abby's and I's room.
Azzy <3: I'm sorry (N/N). Put headphones on.
Me: I plan on it. Btw how are you doing?
"And you, (Y/N), better not plan on going to that winter formal with that Asriel." , Abby's Dad snapped.
"Don't get me involved in this!" , I said.
"You'll be grounded if you go with him."
"Then ground me. The last time I checked, you weren't my Dad."
Abby gasped and said, "That was a bit out of line (Y/N)."
"What? It's the truth! I'm not gonna stand there and let him say hateful things about Asriel! He'll never replace Dad!"
Tears fell out of my eyes.
I walked out of our room and sobbed, "I'm going out. Don't look for me."

(Asriel POV)

15minutes later, (y/n) was at my door crying.
"(Y/N), Sweetie? What's wrong?" , I asked.
"Abby's Dad." , (Y/N) replied, tears streaming down her cheeks.
"What happened?"
"It started between Abby and her Dad agruing about the winter formal. Then Abby's Dad got me involved by saying 'you better not plan on going to that winter formal with that Asriel.' I was like don't get me involved in this. He actually threatened to ground me if I went with you. So I was like... ground me... *sobs* the last time I checked you're not my dad. Abby told me that I was being out of line. I wasn't gonna stand there and let him say things about you!"
Winter formal? All this drama over the winter formal?
*sighs* I was planning on asking (Y/N) in a couple days. I had something big planned but I guess I could just ask now.
I hugged her tightly and said, "You're gonna be okay. I bet everyone is going through a lot and they're just frustrated. So try to be patient and understanding. Even though it can be hard. I understand it's hard. I'm glad you spoke up for yourself though."
"*sobs*."
"It's gonna be okay. You'll be okay, (Y/N)."
"T-thank you, Asriel." , (Y/N) sobbed.
"Anytime." , I said.
Before I got to say anything else, my phone buzzed.
Abby: Is (Y/N) with you? She left the house and didn't say anything.
Me: Yeah. She's with me.
Abby: *sighs* I know my Dad and her don't get along... but she doesn't need to treat him like—
After that text I put my phone away, not wanting to deal with Abby.
"Let me guess? Abby?" , (Y/N) asked.
"Yup." , I replied.

(Y/N)'s POV — Asriel's house

"Before you go back home, can I ask you something?" , Asriel asked.
"Sure!" , I replied.
"Would you like to go to the winter formal with me?"
"Omg yes!"
"I had something bigger planned but seeing the emotional distress you were in... I couldn't wait."
"Aww you're so sweet, Azzy." , I said. Then I walked out the door.
*HOME*
I'm scared.
I'm scared.
I'm in mine and Abby's room shaking and crying.
I never thought he would actually HIT me.
I cried myself to sleep that night.

(Y/N)'s POV — Monday (2 days later)

I had dark circles under my eyes, as in I didn't sleep good at all.
Asriel noticed first thing, and pulled me aside.
"Why do you have dark circles under your eyes?" , Asriel asked.
"I didn't sleep good last night." , I replied, trying to hide the bruise on my arm.
"And what's on your arm?"
"N-nothing!"
Asriel pulled my hand off my arm and immediately noticed the bruise.
"*sighs*. It's time for gym class. I'll be asking about that later."
*Lunch*
"Okay, how'd you get that bruise? And don't lie to me because I can tell when you're lying." , Asriel said.
"My mom got moved to night shifts. So Abby's Dad takes care of me now." , I replied.
"Did he hit you?"
I nodded yes.
"That— *sighs*." , Asriel said.
Then kept his composure and said, "I'll promise to protect you."
I smiled and blushed.
