My Little Mutt (FS!Papyrus x Female!Reader)

Chapter 9- A Collar And Spicy Tacos

Writer~San: *appears* I have come back once more to bring yet another chapter. 4 chapters in 2 days, maybe even 5. It depends on how late I stay up writing this one. As long and dramatic this story is turning out to be, fluff and stuff will be coming really soon.

=w=  Again, if you guys have ideas or prompts, feel free to share them. Enjoy!

(~Mutt's POV~)

It's been a few days since I've seen Y/N. Sans wanted to make sure she is in behaving standards before we see each other. I can't sleep, every night I hear him leave to visit her in the shed. Some visits are for feeding her, other visits for discipline. I feel terrible for what I've dragged her into.

'You messed up.'

I did it for her own good. The only ones that would be able to protect her is me and my bro. Sitting patiently on the living room floor, I watch as Sans cooks his food in the kitchen. Spicy tacos... My mouth watered thinking about getting my hands on one. My brother, every once in a while, would turn to check on me and make sure I wasn't misbehaving. I would instantly turn away or look down, not making any eye contact. That was another one of his rules.

'Don't make eye contact with him unless given permission to.'

I hear his heels tap against the floor, getting closer. He places a plate of tacos in front of me and commanded, "Go to the shed and encourage our little kitten to eat. Share this with her. You will not eat more than her. Understand?" I was shocked at the statement.

'He's letting me go see her?'

He adds with a more fierce tone, "Nothing else! I don't want to hear you've been sneaking to Muffet's again!" Not wanting to ruin his mood or my chance to see Y/N, I immediately answer, "Yes m'lord." I grab the plate and go outside. I hesitate as I stand on the porch.

'What does she think of me now? I wouldn't be surprised if she decided to ignore me entirely for the rest of her life.'

I slowly step off the porch and walk to the shed. I felt my anxiety grow. My soul starts to pound, imagining all the things I could find. She could be laying on the floor, fighting to stay alive. Knowing how violent Sans is, he could've gave her some serious injuries by now. I shake away the scary thought and decide to just go in.

'I would say she's my friend after all. Maybe she'll understand.'

I take a deep breath, open the door, and step in. I quickly close the door behind me, we don't need any stalkers figuring out another human fell.

'The queen would have all of us executed.'

The queen's temper is similar to my brother's. However, my brother can be... persuaded. Give him a choice that can uplift his ego and status, in most cases he'll take the bait immediately. That's why the human is still alive in the first place. Since the shed is small, it wasn't long before I spotted Y/N. She's sitting in the corner, bruises and red streaks cover her arms. I recognize those marks, it's from one of his whips.

'Judging by how long and deep the marks are, it was his second biggest one.'

He uses it for me too. He'll use it for one of two reasons. One, he's really mad and doesn't care how much it'll hurt. Or two, she really was giving him a fight. As she turned to look at me, I noticed the black collar around her neck. A silver bell dangled from it, ringing a little from her movement. The collar had a thick chain attached that was bolted to the wall. Y/N must've tried to get herself free before, her neck was red and sore while her fingernails were really short.

'She was scratching at the collar.'

She looks up, and in a split second, she lunged at me. I hurriedly jerked myself back. If it wasn't for the chain holding her only inches away from me, I would've been in trouble. She's definitely mad, but I can't blame her. I nervously mumble, "I-I-I'm s-sorry.." She screams at me, "You set this up!" She stares at me for a minute, tears fall down her face. Y/N steps back and slides down against the wall, "I trusted you." She hugs her knees, then quietly asks, "Can I have a hug?.... please.."

'I can't watch this anymore.'

I put down the plate and go over to her. I give Y/N the most comforting hug I can manage without hurting her or my recovering arm. She flinches at my touch, then tightly wrapped her arms around me. I haven't had a hug in so long. It's so warm.. I try to reassure her, "If I-I d-d-didn't do this, y-you would've f-f-froze o-or starved. I d-didn't want that f-for you." She buries her face into my chest and clings onto me like an upset child. I blush, and gently pet her head. I can't believe this human has affected so many of my emotions lately. It's like she's a close friend I've known for so long but it's only been a little over a week.

(Small time skip, enough time to let everything settle down)

After she had calmed down, I reached over and grabbed the plate, carefully dragging it over to us. "M-M'lord made a-a plate of food for u-u-us." She stares at me, "What's his name?" Y/N wasn't going to stop asking until I gave her an answer. "D-Dave." She scoffs as to tease me, "With the unique name you have?! There is no way your brother is named Dave." (Writer~San: By no means are we trying to offend anybody named Dave lol) I smirk, "And w-w-what if i-it is?" Y/N grins, "Papyrus, I KNOW it isn't. If I'm going to be stuck with the both of you, the least you can do is tell me the truth." I sigh and basically surrender, "Sans. His n-n-name i-is Sans. But DON'T c-call him t-t-that."

'I'm hungry, the food is gonna get cold. I hate having to just stare at it.'

I direct the conversation back to the food, "You need to eat s-s-something. T-They're r-really good. I promise."

(~Your POV~)

I stared at the plate at tacos and grabbed one, then looked back to Pap.

'The way he's staring at that food is too adorable right now. I hope he doesn't mind me taking this.'

He noticed my hesitation and smirks, "Look, I'll e-eat one t-too." I couldn't stop myself from letting out a short laugh, "That's my line!" We both take a bite out of our tacos. Immediately I felt like my mouth was on fire.

'Are these things infused with a pepper from the Devil's garden?! The spice in this thing is intense!!'

I ended up coughing when some of the crazy spice got stuck on the back of my throat. I put my taco back down on the plate and used my hands to fan my mouth, "That's HOT!" My face is turning red and my eyes are watering but Papyrus looks unaffected. I could tell by his cheesy smirk that he was trying not to laugh at how funny I look. I lightly slap him in the shoulder, pouting, "No fair! You have no taste buds!" He smiles and playfully sticks out his orange tongue, "Y-Yes I do, I've j-j-just eaten these tacos a-a-a lot." He finishes his taco pretty quickly. I got flustered, my face turning redder. I mumbled, "Oh my gosh you have a tongue.." It was only then that his face started to glow orange, and I don't think it was from the taco.

'Hold on, IS HE BLUSHING?'

Papyrus turns away, "Well y-you look c-c-cute in that collar."

'NOPE! I'M DYING!'

My heart felt like it was about to beat straight out of my chest. I slap him in the shoulder harder than the first time, embarrassed out of my mind, "BOI-" "MUTT! GET INSIDE NOW!!!" Sans shouted from the porch. My hope fades and Papyrus stands up. He patted me on the head awkwardly, "I-If you do as h-h-he says, he m-may let you s-s-stay in the house. It'll be easier t-then. T-Trust me." He hands my taco to me before rushing out.

Writer~San: 1400 words.. I'M tiREd! GoINg To BED! lol cya later!
