It was like wisps of soft air were caressing your lips. The butterflies in your stomach erupted and multiplied, and were all gone in a mere second. They were replaced by a weightless feeling , along with your feet being lifted off the ground. You grew slightly nervous, but Sans's stroking your face calmed you. You could feel heat on your face build up, and you couldn't tell if it was from you or Sans. His nervous grip softened on your jawline, and your giggled softly into it. The wisps disappeared and Sans pulled away, panting. You felt your feet touch the ground. Your eyes fluttered open and you were startled at his panting, to say the least. It was like he'd just ran a mile. You gulp and smile softly at him, biting your bottom lip to stop yourself from smiling ear to ear. "You okay, Sans?" He nodded, chuckling. "Yeah just...takes up a...lot of energy to use my...powers..." You smile slightly wider and hug him before you could stop yourself. "That was amazing..." He chuckled a bit harder, wrapping his arms around you. "Pretty incredible...never felt THAT before, heh..." You closed your eyes at the warm embrace until a sudden sharp whistle was heard at the doorway. Your eyes flew open, and Sans turned, after letting go of you. His left socket held the glowing blue iris. It disappeared as a shocked look overcame his skull, his eye-lights becoming little pinpricks. A new wave of glowing blue had found its way to Sans's skull. Not a second after the whistle, cheering and other noises filled the room. Papyrus was apparently squealing, yelling "FINALLYY!" in between. Undyne was screeching in delight whilst holding an extremely unsettled Alphys over her head. Toriel was clapping excitedly with Frisk, whom was jumping on the ground making a heart shape with their hands. And lastly, Mettaton was filming and yelling, "ENCORE, ENCOOOOREE~!!" After you'd seen this, your face turned the darkest shade of red possible and you covered your face in you hands, utterly embarrassed. You were glad to notice that Sans had done the same, when you peeked through your fingers. You were swooped into a tight hug in a split-second, joined by a violent "FUHUHUHUHU-!!" A metallic laughing soon joined, as well as an excited "NYEHEHEHEHEHEH-!" and a bunch of giggles and chuckles from all sides. A bony hand poked you through the mess and you quickly took it, recognizing the feel of Sans's touch. Wow, what a reaction...

After the crazed frenzy of shipment, the group was now all laid down on the floor, watching the video that Mettaton had taken. It featured the pun proposal and first kiss. At one point, you were floating on air, suspended by a blue glow around you and Sans. You glanced at Sans and saw he was again buried in his hoodie. But, there was a definite whisper of "worth it." coming from inside it. Everyone continued screeching and fangirling until the video ended with Mettaton's yell of "ENCORE~!" It ended with the group having to return home. Alphys and Undyne were first to leave, as they wanted to watch a new anime Alphys had introduced. Undyne left you with a bone-crushing hug and noogie, and the same to Sans. Alphys exited with a smug wink, wave, and chuckle. Mettaton left soon after, saying he had to make an appearance to somewhere. He strode put the door with a little wave and "Ta-taa~". Toriel and Frisk stayed the longest. The pair wanted to invite you to a dinner at their house, to get to know you better. They'd invited you for that very night, because they, like you, didn't have much to do. You ended up accepting, and they left soon after. This subjected you to Papyrus's squealing. "OH MY GOD HUMAN, I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU ACTUALLY DID IT!!" You giggle nervously. "Eheh...yep, i uh..." San wrapped an arm around you, chuckling. "Hey, i helped break the ice too." Papyrus beamed, hugging you both. "NYEHEH, I'M SO GLAD!!" Sans beamed with him, and you could see a happy light in his eyes. You giggled, hugging the two as tightly as possible. Sans chuckled and nuzzled you softly, and you giggled again, doing the same. Papyrus almost broke your ears squealing over this.

Soon came the time that you'd have to go to Toriel's house for the dinner. You were slightly sad at not being able to eat Papyrus's cooking again, but oh well. He whimpered a bit. "YOU CAN'T HAVE MY SPECIAL SPAGHETTI?" You shook your head, trying to remain as serious as possible. "No, but i promise i'll have it tomorrow, alright Paps?" He brightened a bit, nodding. "OKAY, HUMAN! I WILL HAVE PLENTY PREPARED BY THEN!!" Sans walked up to you, holding out his arm again like the day he'd taken you out. "Ready to go, Princess?" You flushed bluntly. "I said don't call me princess. And yes, i'm ready." You took his arm, chuckling. He turned to Papyrus. "Bro, you're not gonna tag along?" Pap shook his head. "SOMEONE HAS TO LOOK AFTER POFF!" Upon hearing his name, there was an ecstatic bark from outside the door. You chuckled again a Sans began leading you to the door. "Alright Pap, i'll see you later!" "Bye, bro. Take care." "GOODBYE, SANS! GOODBYE, HUMAN! HAVE A GOOD TIME!!" He opened the door and you got assaulted by the armored dog. Whoops. Poff jumped on you with a happy yap, bringing you to the ground, and leaving Sans to clutch his stomach in hard laughter. "Oh my god..." Papyrus looked pretty shocked for a few seconds before rushing toward the dog and attempting to pull him of you. Sans was still laughing. "Wow, how long was he out there in the cold? Hah, poor pupscicle." You couldn't help but laugh at that one. Poff yipped again and hopped off, panting excitedly. Pap grabbed his attention and was soon tackled as well. Sans laughed again. "You good, Pap?" Papyrus laughed, wrestling with the dog. "YES SANS, HURRY BEFORE HE ATTACKS YOU TOO!" He laughed again, an Sans pulled you up off the ground, chuckling. "You okay, kiddo?" You smile, nodding and brushing yourself off. "Yeah, just a little dusty." He takes your arm again, winking once more. "Welp, let's get going, shall we?" You nod again. "Yup." You giggle softly, shifting your arm to take his hand instead. "But i'd prefer going like this." A very soft blue glow appeared on his cheekbones again, and he chuckled. "Hah, same here..." And you were off. Trudging through the snow in some comfortable silence until Sans stopped. It was a bit sudden and you didn't notice until he started snickering behind you. You stop and look over your shoulder at the skeleton. "What's up, Sans?" He shook his head. "Nothin', it's just a really long way to Toriel's place. Wanna take a shortcut?" You nod a bit, stepping closer. "One of your 'warp-teleport' shortcuts?" He chuckled, nodding. "Yup. Wanna?" "Sure." He smiled a bit wider, getting closer as well. He took and squeezed your hand a bit. "Ready?" You prepared yourself and nodded. "Yeah, go for it." The blue swirls began and the sudden weightlessness took over again. Light colors spun between the blue, and you closed your eyes. This ride was longer; probably because of how far the walk would've been. You open your eyes again and most of the blue whirls had been consumed with black. The color was gone; replaced by black. And the blue was thinning. Sans was panting heavily, and his grip on your hand slipping. The last words you heard from him were, "What's going on-" and he and the blue swirl disappeared. Your heart raced and you dropped down fast. The weightlessness remained, and actually got stronger. There was no floor, no walls, just darkness in all surrounding area. You turned, completely shocked. Your heart was racing; all this in around three seconds. You couldn't see anything. Just blackness everywhere. "SANS?!" Your voice sounded far off, like it was spoken a mile away. You barely heard it, and this freaked you out even more. "WHERE AM I?!" You yelled to absolutely no one, hearing your voice far away again. It wasn't long before you began tearing up in fright. Thinking hurt you...would you escape? Would you just rot away in this place? A hand was placed on your shoulder. A bony hand. You whirled around as quickly as possible, and you actually saw dewdrops of your tears float around you. You saw a...creature? Man? It looked like a man; like a man wearing a floor-length coat over a white turtleneck. But it was his face that scared you. Completely white; two black sockets on it. One was shaped normally, with a crack leading down. The other was misshapen, flattened on the top, and a crack lead up from it. A strange expression carved into a black mouth. His hand had retracted when you turned. And then he spoke. "What are you...doing here?" His voice came from his own figure, and sounded broken, almost glitchy-like. It was deep, too. You had no response, as you were too shock-stricken. He edged closer, and a sudden feeling that you were being strongly pulled from behind arose. You blinked, and you found yourself in Sans's arms. You felt extremely tired, and Sans's skull was covered in glowing blue tears. He looked slightly surprised when you awoke, and another tear rolled down his face. "(Y-y/n)?" You nod a bit. "What...happened?" Your voice and his came from your own bodies. Had you left that place? "(Y/n)...thank god..." He hugged you close, and you found strength to wrap your sore arms around him. "I...i lost control..." You hug him as tight as possible. "It's okay...i guess we'll uh..." You tried to lighten up the situation. "I guess we'll walk from here?" He watched you and smiled softly. He looked like he was glad that you were back, and teared up again at the thought. "Yeah. I think we will."
