Itty bitty part

Cross froze. That's the last thing he had expected from Chara right now.

Cross reached into his hoodie. Pulling out the chocolate bar he had snatched when XGaster was yelling at him. He placed it on Chara's lap.
Chara looked up at Cross and he signed, "I was saving that for after you finished your food, but I think you need it now. Not the whole thing though. Half now, half when you finish your food."

Chara smiled and started peeling off the shiny dark purple wrapper, eager to taste the delicious sweet chocolate he knew would be waiting for him.

Cross checked the clock. Not enough time. He had to go start working at his new job at the café nearby, since their dad didn't help at all. He encouraged Chara to look at him, which he did, and signed, "We'll talk about this later. Make yourself some food and double check that your phone is on, ok? I'll be back."

Chara nodded and wrapped his arm around Cross' neck, hiding in his brothers shoulder. Cross hugged back and rubbed Chara's back soothingly. Before he left, Cross quickly made and drank a quick cup of coffee then headed out the door.
