Muffet12345 best person in the world. Hope your school days aren't as bad in highschool like me. also, your books were amazing, and I hope you get the courage when you are ready, to post them again.

I opened the door to my apartment and jokingly called out, "Honey, I'm home. Oh wait, that's right... I live alone." Expecting complete silence I took off my shoes and started to put my stuff away, but then a voice replied, "I picked up some pizza." Freezing in my spot, I grabbed my shoes and held the shoe up as a weapon, and stalked around my living room to my hallway. Somehow a stupid thought popped into my head and I slammed the shoe down.

"Nightmare, get your slimy ass out here right now!" I furiously called out. Hearing shuffling in my room, I crossed my arms and waited for him. After more shuffling, a voice closer to the dark room called out.

"Unfortunately Darling, as much as you want to see me, bright lights aren't my thing...and your scary." Nightmare yelled out from behind the door. Rolling my eyes I crossed my living room and shut the blinds before turning off the lights. Tossing my hair to the side, I crossed my arms again before waiting in the dark. Slowly a figure creeped out of the hallway and leaned against the wall.

Scowling I flopped down onto the couch. Not a moment later, I felt the space next to me dip as well. Words didn't need to be said but I think he got the fact that scaring me wasn't going to end well for him. Dozing off, I felt my head land on his shoulder but I was too tired to care as usual. Sighing, I got comfortable and started to fall asleep on him. The tension seemed to seep out of his body as he gave up and got comfortable. He ended up laying down with me, who was barely conscious, laying in the crook of his arm. Feeling content I fell asleep tucked away.

Frisk pov:

Waking up to a still dark room, I felt really warm and snug. Sighing I snuggled deeper into my pillow...pillows aren't warm, and they don't have tentacles. Shooting up, I bonked my head on a chin causing me to fall back down onto his chest. Groaning in pain, I rubbed my head and slowly scooted up. Looking at the skeleton I realized that his chin met contact with my head and instantly I reached out to check it.

"I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to hit your chin so hard. Are you ok? It's not broken right?" I rambled out, not catching on that the man was fine and only sore from the collision. Grabbing my hands he chuckled and shook his head before telling me it was ok.

"Nothing was broken nothing harmed Cara." He chuckled. Realizing that I was standing over him, I quickly got up and hurried to the bathroom. Hearing Nightmare laugh behind me only made me go faster. While brushing my hair I thought of a plan to get back at him even though he didn't really do anything. Wait, if he did nothing then why am I thinking of a way to get him back? Maybe my curiosity about why he was afraid of the light made me go through with it but nothing in that was harmful to him...

The next night I came home to immediately close the lights, slyly grabbing the flashlight and then shutting off the lights. Calling Nightmare out, I braced myself for whatever was about to happen. The man himself trotted out here and before he knew it, I shone the light on him. Seeing his face of horror before he SHRUNK, was the Christmas gift I was going to cherish forever. Turning off the light, I looked down before smiling.

"Oh, you naughty little man." I chuckled. His protest was like squeaks which made me laugh even harder. Putting him on the counter I decided to measure him. He was smaller than a pineapple but bigger than an orange. His tentacles were as long as a thumbtack. Despite his mini curses to set me hanging by my toes I just continued to make fun of him.

"You're so cute when you're this tiny!" I giggled. Nightmare froze before turning around cursing me even more. Suddenly like a spell, he grew back to his normal size. Ah, should've thought this far ahead cause now, I was screwed. I bolted for my door but was caught midway in his tentacles. Being dragged off the ground wasn't the worst thing but it wasn't fun. He turned me around and his face held a smug smile, the only thing I could do was sheepishly laugh and try to bargain my way out of this.

"Oh no Cara, I don't think you'll be bargaining your way out of this. Now let us say I were to do something you weren't fond of because it made you... vulnerable. Now let's say, I did something like," he drawled out his sentence before leaning forward near my ear. Gently nipping on it, I sucked in a gasp trying not to give him any power but he knew what I did, and that only encouraged him.

He breathed gently on my ear before lowering it down to my face. Blushing like crazy, my brain was struggling to get free, but my body decided against it. He got closer until I could feel his breath on my lips before he suddenly jolted away and lowered me to the ground. Covering my face with my hand I touched my lips. The whole ordeal was enough to make my knees wobble. Glancing at Nightmare, I realized that he WAS blushing. This man who thought he was as seductive as he was, turned out to be extremely shy! What a new interesting fact. He caught my staring and left abruptly before turning around and announcing that he was leaving. Giving me no chance to say anything, I yelled out bye. All at once, my brain caught up and I sighed disappointingly before greeting the day.

A/n: While writing this, I was fighting something off in my vents with a broomstick, also if this book is moving way to fast for you guys, let me know. Im very much willing to take constructive critisism. Don't worry, I dont like $mut nor can I write it. This book will be edited.
