Monster or Beast?

Shopping Trip

Gulping, he carefully accepted the medicine as he said "Come in Frisk, I'm gonna go take this then we can relax for you to warm up and we can head out." Frisk nodded before following the skeleton inside his home. Having closed the door behind her and removing her boots. Sans nearly protested but then remembered that Papyrus would have a fit if he found melted snow on the carpet again.

Once she took a seat, Sans made his way to the kitchen. There was Papyrus just finishing cleaning up after breakfast. He looked over at his younger brother and smiled. "Just about done bro?"

"YES BROTHER, I'M JUST ABOUT DONE THEN I'LL BE HEADING OUT!" Papyrus let out a laugh as he set the last dish on the dishrack. "THERE WE ARE! NOW I HOPE YOU BEHAVE FOR THE HUMAN WHILE YOU GO OUT CLOTHES SHOPPING!" Papyrus said with a big grin on his face only for the smile to slowly start to fade. "Um... brother? May I ask a simple request?" It was odd to hear his brother talk lower like this.

"Uh... sure?"

"If you ever get overwhelmed like that again please let me know? Call me if you need too. I don't want you to go through that again it hurt my SOUL to see you like that." Sans couldn't help but frown a little at that. His brother was still worried about him. Worried that he would go into that state again. Thinking that he would only go into a worse state most likely.

He couldn't help but nod his head, though Sans had the smallest of feelings that he would be okay. That everything would turn out okay for him today. At least, better compared to how it had been over the years. Giving his brother a hug, Sans calmly said "I'll be fine bro, you don't have to worry about anything right now."

"After all, nothing can overpower me senseless in the long run."

Papyrus slapped Sans upside the head for that one.

"Worth it." Was all Sans could say as he watched his brother walking out of the room. Grabbing his coat before leaving the house. Sans couldn't help the chuckle that escaped him in that moment. Once he was alone in the kitchen, Sans grabbed a glass and filled it with cold water before taking a couple pain killers. Letting out a soft sigh, he rubbed at his skull in the hopes of trying to calm himself down.

This was going to be a long day that was for sure though he had a feeling that it would be worth it later on.

Walking out into the living room, he saw that Frisk was rubbing her hands together. Gloves resting on the side of the couch as he gazed over at her. He couldn't help the grin that grew on his face. Honestly, she was just so... perfect actually. Adorable as well, and he couldn't help but feel a little curious as to if he could buy her something since she was helping him pick out some clothes for him.

Or just because he wanted to get her something either way.

"You okay?" he asked with a frown.

"Yeah, fingers are a little cold." She said with a small smile.

"Frisk, aren't your hands always cold? Even in the summer?" He asked with a frown.

"... Yeah?"

Sans chuckled a little as he reached over and grabbed a hold of her hands. His boney fingers, even though they had no flesh were still warm to the touch. Even with no blood circulation of the like, but he was still warm to the touch. "Better?" Frisk had a faint blush on her cheeks as she stared at Sans before slowly nodding her head. He couldn't help the grin that grew on his face.

In some weird way, he was happy that he could bring her comfort, even if it was something as simple as warming up her hands.

"Um..." Frisk began to speak, causing the skeleton to look over at her in confusion. "Ready to go?" She asked softly.
