What A Beaut
(TW: MILD SEXUAL TENSION/FOUL LANGUAGE/ VAGUE INSULTS)
Among the comfort of the house, there you sat on the floor of another room fiddling with your fingers as you continued to think on the topic of; SOULMATES. Normally you wouldn't be lost in thought over a topic you didn't understand but this sort of word made your heart flutter, was it another word for a contract? Or perhaps another word for a significant other? Your curiosity grew and grew as you continued to ponder.
'KNOCK!'
'KNOCK!'
The sound of a fist softly knocking on the closed door "Come in!" You said, the door opened to reveal the one named 'Red'. In his gloved hand he held a pair of brown boots which looked to have fur inside, A long white fluffy dress coat with gold patterns embroidered on the collar, A soft blue sweater dress with a pair of navy blue leggings. As he walked in with a proud smile etched on his face he sat the items down in front of you "Sadly we don' have any feminine fitting close for you here since y'know it was just us men here, but luckily the lady down at the shop had these on sale. Said they didn't fit er' anymore, try em' on doll. We'll be downstairs when you're ready." He said before walking out of the room and closing the door.
You blinked before looking down at the clothes "I hope he didn't pay too much for these.." You mumbled before stripping down and putting on the outfit.
Once you finished putting on the navy blue leggings and the very soft sweater dress, you added the coat and noticed it's medium size that swallowed your arms "Well that won't do." You sighed, taking the cuffs of the coat you folded them until you could see your wrist, with a smile you added the boots. Dusting off nonexistent dust yet some lint particles you opened the door and walked out, from the edge of the stairs you could hear them talking amongst themselves seeming to have a nice small conversation as they waited for you. Grabbing the rail you trailed down the stairs, your footsteps quieting the voices, when you reached the bottom of the stairs you looked over yourself one last time before looking ahead of you and seeing multiple pairs of eyes on you "Well don't you look comfy." Sans chuckled as he shifted his hands in the pocket of his jacket, you nodded "It is very comfortable! Thank you very much sir red! It would be my treat to return the favor." You beamed at him, he sweated nervously and tugged at the collar of his turtleneck "It's no problem doll! Don't worry about it, r-really!" he looked off to the side, avoiding your eye contact, Suddenly a voice from behind you caused you to let out a 'Oh!' as the voice chuckled "Still workin' on that ain't ya lamb chop? Speaking of lambchop..with all that fur you look mighty delicious, I'd expect as much from high quality meat such as yourself SOULMATE ." The voice turned out to be Horror who held your hand, his charming yet creepy grin warming your soul. His one red eye light flickered as he looked you up and down, you could've sworn you saw him salivating just a little. Sans walked up to you with his classic laid back smile "Anyway kid, we just wanted to take a stroll around the town, maybe find somewhere to eat and relax. Are you down for that?" He asked, rubbing under his nose, you nodded as a smile slithered its way on your face "Oh but before we depart, I do have one question!" You announced, they all stared at you waiting "You mention SOULMATE a lot. But I'm afraid I don't understand..What is a SOULMATE ?" you asked, tilting your head slightly.
The silence in the room was deafening as you saw all their eye lights go out, nervously you looked at horror who's eye light was also gone. "Uh..Is it something I'm not supposed to know..?" You asked, suddenly Horror's eye light came back "Lamb Chop..You mean to tell me, all this time you didn't know what a SOULMATE was?" He asked, nervously chuckling behind his breath. You nodded until Red ran up to you and grabbed your shoulders ''DOLL YA' CAN'T BE SERIOUS! YOU'S TELLIN' ME THAT UP ON THE SURFACE YOU'VE NEVER HEARD OF A SOULMATE ?" he asked, his voice holding more shock than Horror, you nodded once again as you grabbed his mitted hand "You wouldn't mind informing me on the topic would you?" You asked with a hopeful smile, Red felt his soul flutter as he tried to respond but all that came out were inaudible stutters until Sans stepped in "Don't worry while we're out we'll answer all your questions, Okay?" You smiled and nodded.
