Forgotten Phoenix (New Purpose Sequel)

Chapter 21- We Got Caught

(~Honey's POV~)

I lay beside my Beautiful in bed, holding her as close to me as I can. We have been talking for hours after she woke up. Mostly, she helped me to piece all of my memories together. I have to admit that all of this still seems unreal to me.

I slip a hand onto Y/N's cheek. She smiles with a giggle, "Y-Yes, Pap?" "I can't believe I forgot what it was like to hold the love of my life.." Her gaze softens as she whispers, "It w-wasn't your fault."

I sit up. It must've worried her because she starts to move too. She sits up partially, propping her head in her open palm as she watches me. "Heh.. Though I will say you've changed a lot." "Really, how so?" She asks. I turn to her with a smirk, "You're stronger. For starters, you never used your magic around me. Now it seems that you're completely comfortable with it. I'm slightly offended you didn't feel it necessary to show your dying husband your cool moves." Y/N shrugs and mumbles, "Well t-t-there w-was that one fight... b-before the crash..."

I scratch my skull as the memory comes back to me. "Ah.. You're right.." "As for not u-using it afterwards or around y-you, I just.." Y/N pauses and nervously runs a hand through her hair. "I didn't s-s-see t-the need for it. I also d-didn't want y-you to feel bad for n-n-not being able to use y-your magic as freely. B-Blue didn't f-f-fully c-convince me to start using my m-magic u-until some t-time after the twins were born." She explains.

"I think I already know the reason why." I smirk while saying to her. "Mhm?" She lays back down and crosses her arms behind her head. "He got startled when the cinnamon eater formed wings of his own." Y/N laughs nervously while confirming my theory, "H-He swore t-to me over the p-phone that Roman was s-somehow d-d-dead because h-his angel was roaming around his house."

"I love our kids." I truly believe what I say and I won't take it back. My soul swells up with joy, causing it to begin vibrating softly. This phenomenon creates a noise similar to a purr. All skeletons can do it, more or less. Blue hates to let his soul vibrate while others are around. Y/N is my mate so I can gladly say that I'm more open to it. I can't help but show my gratitude to her by sharing lots of purrs and nuzzles. Y/N accepts them all but also lets out an embarrassed whine, "P-PaPYruS.." I continue to praise her anyway, "You raised them to be so freaking cool. I knew you'd do a good job. I just knew it." Y/N's looks away with a blushing face. It was soon after that tears form in her eyes.

I shift my body so that I'm on my hands and knees, hovering over her. "Hey. C'mon Beautiful, please don't cry." She looks to me as the first of her tears begin to fall. "I know they t-t-turned o-out g-great.. Don't get me w-w-wrong- I'm s-so grateful for t-that.. but.. I wish we could've had you too. I-I m-missed you so m-much." She winces. I understand that the pain Y/N went through won't go away overnight. I mean, it was over an entire decade that she had to handle everything on her shoulders. At least now it can be different. There's a newfound hope that I'll actually be able to stay with them this time.

"It's okay, Y/N. I'm right here and I'll be staying here as long as you are." A moment passed where we gazed into each other's eyes. She sighs and wipes away her own tears. Then, her hands cup around my face as she admits, "S-Sometimes it f-feels l-like this is all a dream and t-that someday I'll h-h-have t-to wake up." I lean down, my face growing ever closer to hers. "A dream? Well then.. By all means, let's make it a good one then~" Her cheeks turn a deep red as she stares up at me. I take the opportunity to press several kisses along her jaw and then trace them down to her neck. "P-P-PaP-PApYRuS!" She shrieks, making me smile more. She stutters more when she's flustered and my heart just can't take it.

"Today's going to be a good day, and so is the next, aNd the day after that. All because I have you, Y/N. I got my second chance and I'm not going to let go of it so easily." I tell her adamantly. I see her begin to squirm underneath me. Then, her arms reach under my arms and cling around my back.

'I see someone doesn't want to let go either~'

"I love you, Papyrus." Y/N mumbles. Geez how I missed hearing those words. I can tell that for the both of us, it felt like an eternity. "I love you too, Beautiful." I say through a smile as I lean down to nuzzle her neck again. I feel as her grip pulls tighter on me, silently signaling to me to continue giving her attention. "Aw, my poor Y/N~" I tease, pressing my mouth on hers moments later. She kisses back openly and without hesitation.

'Nothing can ruin this for me.'

That's when my bedroom door swings open. My brother steps in, too focused on adjusting his gloves to see us at first. "Hello you two, I was wondering if we could have a word-" Y/N and I break the kiss instantly but it was too late for me to move away from her. Blue looks up and quite frankly sees the dominant position I've seemed to put myself in. His pupils shrink as he takes a shaky breath in. His face glows completely blue. Next thing that came out of him was a loud scream.

(~Your POV~)

'Oh GoD-'

Blue shouts dramatically, "PAPY NOOOOOO!!!! LEAVE THE HUMAN ALONE!!!" I look up and Papyrus' expression is freaking priceless. His eye sockets have gone completely dark with orange blush covering every inch of his face. He might as well be glowing as brightly as a sun right now.

I slap a hand over my mouth but it does nothing to hide the horrendous laughter coming from my throat. Papyrus turns his head back, "BRO WE'RE NOT EVEN DOING ANYTHING BAD-" Honey is interrupted by another one of Blue's screams. I'm losing my mind as I laugh my lungs out. Sans clutches at his chest while heaving loudly, "We HavE StAnDARdS in ThIs HOuSe- Oh FrEAKInG StArS!" Papyrus chimes in, his body trembling, "Yeah, one of them being knocking." "Please. Take y-y-your time, Buddy." I barely manage to say to Sans while legit cackling at the both of them.

'What have we started?'

"YOU ARE RIGHT, Y/N. I AM AN ADULT! I CAN HANDLE THIS!" Sans says confidently, turning around in the opposite direction to face the hall. He huffs out a large breath. "OkAy. I'm okay." Sans turns around again. I smile and wave while Papyrus slowly dies on the inside. I wouldn't be surprised if Honey just passed out while locked in this position. Blue clutches to the doorframe and slides down to his knees as he cries out in agony, "PAPY WHYYYYYYY?!!!! I THOUGHT YOU WERE BETTER THAN THIS!!!" I roll my eyes, "O-Oh? A-A-As if you a-are a-any better w-w-with you-know-who? What d-difference does it m-make anyway? P-Papyrus and I-I-I have long c-crossed that line and h-had kids." Papyrus looks like he wants to strangle me with a nearby pillow. An audible crack comes from Blue's neck as he snaps his head to look at me. I lose my composure and wheeze loudly.

'Am I going to die today?'

Sans' eye sockets are dark and his gaze narrowed as he points out, "I'M NOT READY TO TALK TO YOU YET!" Serif suddenly rushes into the doorway, shouting worriedly, "WE HEARD SCREAMING!" Only then does my face turn as hot as a freaking star. I start to regret my life choices real quick.

'NOT IN FRONT OF THE KIDS-'

Serif takes one look at us and tilts his head, "What theeeeeee...????" I find myself sinking further into the mattress, wishing I could disappear. Roman is soon to join his brother's side, asking, "What is it, Brother?" Roman follows Serif's gaze and soon finds the both of us. He blinks once in silence. The awkward silence alone is probably enough to make my life leave my body. "Mama.. Really?!" Roman then yells.

'I'm going to cry.'
