The Day of Realization
“you know you're kinda exhausting right?”
You made your way over to lean on the end of the couch, waiting for him to say something, instead he answered by wrapping his tail around your arm and squeezing, yep you have your own giant pet cat.
“foods almost ready, do you want to eat in here?”
Another squeeze, to lazy to even talk sheesh.
“i'll take that as a yes”
You peeled his tail off your arm giving the tip of it a kiss before leaving, earning a long purr in return.
Content and full you both lie on the couch, yawning and giggling at the stupid sounds you'd both make. A far away thought tickled the back of your mind, but passed just as quick as it came. You were being held his arm under your boobs as you sat in between his legs, you raised your hands to wrap them around sans’ neck scratching the back of his skull, earning a content purr that you relished.
“ you're sooo soft”
“ and you're adorable”
“no way you're much cuter, do you hear the cute sounds you make”
“but what's better than a big clingy skeleton”
“I could name a million things, but you'd be first on the list”
“gross”
You teased earning a hearty laugh from him, it made your soul warm and your eyes bright. Since when did you start liking this bag of bones so much, who knows but you don’t think you’d regret it for a moment. As time went on you'd both sleep,wake up, eat, and start again, waking up covered head to toe in sweat that was only partly yours, you decided a long cold shower was in order. Strangely the sweat collected from both of you, made it much easier to slip away. You were sticky and groggy what an amazing way to wake up, dragging yourself up the stairs you grabbed a much cooler pair of pajamas, and headed straight to the bathroom.
The clean, cooling water doing wonders for your skin, you felt energized refreshed even, not an ache in sight. With newly found vigor you made your way down the stairs to your sick skeleton, *if you could even call him that, he seems to be changing by the hour* only halfway down the stairs when a very… potent smell had hit you. Your hand immediately covering your nose, knowing exactly what the smell was, pheromones more specifically Sans’. Just a whiff of it and your heart was racing, the offender of the smell still sound asleep on the couch where you left him.
“Jesus christ SANS”
Not even a flinch, yeah he’d always been a hard sleeper but this was getting annoying. The smell was to say… intoxicating making you extremely dizzy, you decided to open some windows...and doors...and turn the ventilation system on. Anything to lesson how strong his pheromones were, you sat outside taking in the sunset trying to ignore the practical thrumming in your lower area. You sighed the view making you feel nostalgic, filling you with a sense of tranquility.
“I got this place just because of the view”
The clicking sound of his feet and the heavy smell giving off his presence long before he spoke, you turned to see him shirtless not even wearing his signature pink slippers, still large and monstrous looking but...calmer?
“hmm”
You said serenely looking back at it, it was Mount Ebott and the sun was disappearing behind it, it was...beautiful plain and simple.
“might not mean much to you but I remember on our third night here paps said, ‘the mountain symbolized the past and the sunset the future’.
You giggled turning to lean on the back of the chair.
“oh did he”
“no seriously he did”
“know what I think?”
“what?”
“ I think you said it and didn't want to seem less of a ‘cool guy’ for saying it”
He smiled. And not his usual smile it was warmer it was real, it was Sans.
“you caught me”
“knew it, now come sit next to me”
He hesitated, a short look of uncertainty splashing onto his face before shrugging and making his way over. But instead of sitting next to you he opted for picking you up and placing you in his lap while he sat criss crossed on the patio, the big lug pulling you closer into him with a content purr.
“or do that”
We both sat in silence taking in each other and everything around us, while he was slowly falling asleep the gears in your mind were wide awake.
“Sans”
“hmm”
“what are we?”
“is that what you were thinking about? we're mates simple as that”
“oh well that answers nothing”
You twisted your body into the weirdest position yet, just to get clear look at him wanting a real answer.
“Sans what are we really?”
He took a moment arching bone in the way a human would an eyebrow, before finally spewing and answer.
“ well in human terms we're dating, and in monster terms were mated that answer your question?”
“HAH see how are we dating if you've never asked me hmm”
You poked his cheek bringing a cute baby blue to his face.
“well...ugh kitten I'm not good with words come’on”
Oh this was too cute.
“nope you got to say it”
“jeez”
He turned away covering his face, since when was he ever bashful. You could see his tail wagging swiftly behind him, turning yourself fully around to see him.
“___ will you be my big favorite”
“your what~”
“oh hah hah”
“ I accept, and sans”
He turned back to face you
“ will you be mine?”
It was your turn to blush the question sounding a lot better in your head.
“ for now and forever”
*I'll make sure of it*
