This chapter does contain some suggestive content. Not that anyone cares, just thought I'd put up a little heads up.

(This is the next day, after the incident at Muffet's. Sans offered Y/n stay the night, and he got her stuff for her to stay comfortably.)

***

You know it's gonna be an interesting day when you wake up and your first thought is "no."

Y/n woke up early the next morning. She kicked her thick covers off herself and sat up in bed crossed legged. She ran a hand through her h/c (hair/color) hair and glanced at the clock next to her bed. 6 am. She had an hour to get ready for the day before she had to head to Muffet's.

The girl got up and stumbled to the bathroom down the hall. She heard someone in the kitchen; most likely Sans making breakfast for himself or something. He was always early to rise for some reason. Y/n took a quick shower to wake herself up and was walking down the hall when she heard someone walking behind her.

"G'morning honey..." Papyrus yawned. Y/n turned around and gave him a nervous smile.

"Good morning Pap. How's it going?" she asked. He grinned and nodded, avoiding her gaze...for some reason...

"Um, it's good. But... I think you should get changed before Sans comes up and sees you," he suggested. Y/n looked at him confused, then looked down to try and see what he meant. And then it hit her. She had forgotten to grab extra clothes on her way to the shower, so she had to wear her white tank-top and short black shorts. And she had forgotten to grab that thing girls wear underneath before leaving her room.

Y/n blushed uncontrollably as her arms crossed her chest self-consciously. Well you're supposed to be asleep! Since when you do you wake up at 6:30 in morning?! "Yeah, w-well you should to!" she retorted, trying to hide the embarrassment in her voice as she turned on him. "You're in a tank top to! A-and, um, well... uh..."

Omg just kill me now please.

Papyrus looked like he was trying to stifle a laugh as he shifted his iconic orange hoodie from around his arm to his hand. He shrugged and pulled it over his grey tank-top he was wearing. "Better now?" he asked, taking a few steps closer to her. Y/n heard him behind her and walked to her door, hiding behind it as she looked angrily at him.

"Yeah. That's better carrot top."

"Cool. Now go put on a bra and some not-see-through clothes. You'll be late for Muffet's," Papyrus said as he walked down the creaky stairs to the kitchen.

"SHUT UP PAPYRUS!" He laughed as she slammed the door. The girl quickly got changed and dried her hair as best she could.

She didn't think incidents like this would occur when living with the "skelebros," perhaps she had to be more careful when leaving her room. She hated to admit it, but Papyrus had been right before; Muffet's barely paid. And the inn had kicked her out because she hadn't been able to pay (turns out you can't ask more than twice to be given extra time). The bunny lady had known that Y/n had a place to go, so she didn't feel too bad about kicking her out. But living with someone else was something Y/n had to become accustomed to. Dinners were chaotic at times when Sans would lose his patience when Papyrus refused to leave his comfy place on the couch. Mornings were somewhat the same at times, though usually Sans was content with giving in and handing his brother a bottle of honey.

6:55 am. Y/n was yanked from her thoughts as she realized the time. She rushed down the stairs and bolted for the door. Gosh dang it I'm gonna be late again. I need to start setting an alarm...!
