You'll be home

Pancakes

HORROR sat up rubbing his eyes as a dim light reflected off the sheets from the window and onto his body. he blunk as he looked around he was in a well organized room with a side table and two drawers he recognized the area it was that room with the boxes that were labeled B and E but now it was an actual bedroom rather then a storage room. he covered his face with his jacket as the rays of the sunlight shone on him and he blinked adjusting his eyes while a sweet smell caught his attention, it came from the kitchen. Miraculously he didn't begin to float towards the direction of the sweet scent. Horror crawled off the bed and walked to the door leaving the room only to see Blue who sat at a table holding onto a mug but turned when hearing the sound of footsteps. "your up!" Blue smiled standing up and somewhat sprinting to Horror. Blue was covered in powder, he wore a white apron that had the words the "muffin man" printed in blue in the center of the apron as well as some sown in muffins. "I was gone for most of the day to get some supplies, sorry if you were bored." The cheery sans exclaims, his hands folded in front of his chest and his eye lights full of something Horror still couldn't identify. Horror nodded putting his hands in his pockets and walking to the couch and taking a seat. "Were you up all night?" Horror asked while staring at Swap sans, Blue had not only tidied up a mess of a room, set up a bed and get the things to put over it but he also moved Horror onto the bed- eh..without waking him up somehow. "Oh- yeah...I just really wanted to make sure you had a proper place to sleep rather than sleeping on the couch again!" Swap replied honestly. "I didn't mind sleeping on the couch...thanks, I guess." Blue seemed a bit surprised by Horror thanking him for something so little but it was appreciated. Horror could have swore that the other skeleton was glowing just from a simple thanks. It was not much. He couldn't understand why Blue was being so kind in the first place. His mind was urging him that there were strings attached with whatever kindness he received even despite everything. "Oh- you must be hungry!" Blue grins speeding into the kitchen and bringing along with him a plate topped with about...is that seven pancakes? It smelled delicious and looked so fluffy- Horror hadn't noticed how hungry he was at the moment but it became clear after his stomach growled from the very sight. He cleared his throat before asking, "Did you make all that yourself?" Blue vigorously nods, practically beaming. "Yep, the first few ones came out a bit burnt though..." Swap mentioned. After the breakfast, the delicious smelling, fluffy warm pancakes were were set on the table Horror reluctantly looks at Blue than back at the pancakes, the back at blue who was waiting for him to dig in. He was hesitant but sighs in defeat picking up a fork and knife, he cuts into the pancake, not before staring it down then putting it in his mouth. He chews for a while as Blue stares at him with an almost nervous expression waiting for feedback as if this were some kind of cook show and as if horror was an influencer. He swallows. "It's good." Horror says simply before taking another bite from the pancakes. Blues sockets slightly widen but a sense of relief washes over him after hearing those words, happy that his pancakes were edible- that Horror liked it- he felt like jumping with joy but instead glanced at his hands. "that's great to hear..."

Horror found it strange how happy Blue looked while watching him eat but he was thankful for the food even despite being uncomfortable with the eye contact. He had soon finished the meal Swap Sans had prepared. it was kind for Blue to prepare him a nice breakfast...he should at least show him some appreciation for the meal. Ah, how should he say this. Horror's mind raced for a moment and he took in a small breath in.

"...thank...you." Horror's words were quiet, quieter then he had intended which honestly seemed to make him cringe at his own words but they were loud enough for Swap to hear. Blue's eyes light up as he hears Horror's quiet thanks, two simple words. "you're welcome, Horror." Blue whispered softly in reply, resting his chin on his the palm of his hand.

As much as Horror had been thankful for the meal it seem that Blue was happier that he enjoyed.

...

Horror looks at his empty plate in dismay when he feels a weird fluttery feeling in his stomach...again. The feeling wasn't bad or painful it just felt weird.

"I'll put this away for you." Horror watches Swap pick up the plate he had been staring at and walk into the kitchen in silence.
