My Knight of the Royal Guard (Papyrus x Reader)

Papyrus's Nightmare

Recently, Papyrus had been acting strange around you. Ever since your date, he hadn't been talking to you as much, and whenever you asked if he wanted to come to your house, he would refuse quickly and say he was busy with some jobs. You didn't show it, but it upset you a lot. Papyrus was all you ever wanted, but he seemed to be further away from you than ever. You'd considered that you might have done something to upset him, but you didn't recall doing anything offensive.

You sat at the small desk in your bedroom, finishing off your drawing of your boyfriend. You blushed warmly as you worked, your mind filled with thoughts of him. You'd rung him earlier, but he hadn't picked up. After that you texted him asking if he wanted to see you, and you were still waiting on a reply. You put your pencil down and grabbed your cinnamon bun, taking a bite. It was delicious, as usual. Your phone suddenly lit up and made a small 'ding' noise, making you jump slightly. You looked over at your phone to see a message from Sans.

"Hey (y/n), its Sans. You gotta come over, kiddo. Something's wrong with Papyrus and he only wants to see you..."

Your eyes widened as you read the message.

"Oh God..."

You whispered to yourself. This wasn't good. What happened to him? Tears welled up in your eyes as you typed a quick "Okay!" back to Sans with your shaking fingers. You bolted down the stairs and crammed your shoes on your feet. You threw the door open and sprinted through Waterfall and towards Snowdin, not bothering to put a coat on. You soon regretted it, as after a while you stared to get cold. Shivering slightly, you ran up the skelebros' porch and slammed your fist on the door. Within seconds, Sans opened the door.

"There you are (y/n)! Come in!"

You rubbed your arms and shivered, stepping inside quickly. It was warm inside, and you instantly started to warm up.

"Is he in his room?"

You asked, giving Sans a worried look. He nodded.

"He wouldn't let me in his room this morning, and he only wanted to talk to you..."

You rushed upstairs and knocked on Papyrus' bedroom door. You heard shuffling from inside and the door opened just a crack. You saw Papyrus peek out of the tiny gap.

"P-Paps? Are you okay?"

You asked softly, trying to make him comfortable. Tear trails stained his cheekbones, which made you even more worried. He suddenly opened the door wide and grabbed your wrist tightly. You squeaked a bit from the pain as he dragged you inside, slamming the door shut behind him. You started to panic and squirm, trying to loosen his grip on your wrist. He picked you up by the waist, which made you squeak again, and threw you on the racecar bed.

"(Y/N)..."

His voice shook as he crawled on top of you. He laid on top of you, trying to get as close to you as he could. Your cheeks turned crimson and he grabbed your thigh and pulled your legs around his waist. He buried his head in your neck, crying softly. You stroked his head comfortingly, your own eyes threatening to tear up.

"W-What's wrong Paps? I'm here to help..!"

You tried to speak soothingly , but your voice cracked and came out as a squeak. You couldn't bare to see your poor innocent Papyrus like this... He was always so happy and proud!

"I-I HAD A NIGHTMARE..."

He whispered, his voice tickling your neck and causing your cheeks to flush red. You remembered your own nightmare and instantly regretted it.

"D-do you want to talk about it Paps..?"

He squeezed you closer to him, nuzzling your neck with his cheek.

"I-I TRIED TO HOLD YOUR HAND... B-BUT YOU STARTED BLEEDING! A-AND YOU WERE CRYING SO I HUGGED YOU, AND YOU STARTED DISAPPEARING..! A-AND YOU WERE SCREAMING... I-I HURT YOU.."

Your eyes widened as he told you his story. You stroked his head softly and squeezed his hand.

"Its okay Paps~ I'm okay~"

He wrapped his arms tighter around you and pulled his head away from your neck, staring into your eyes. You blushed pink and smiled softly.

"You didn't hurt me~ I promise!"

He cupped your cheek in his hand gently and put a hand on your waist, blushing softly. You wiped his tears away with your thumb as he gazed at you admiringly.

"I LOVE YOU SO MUCH (Y/N).. I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'D DO WITHOUT YOU..."

You blushed as the two of you sat up, him pulled you into his lap.

"I love you too Paps~"

He put a hand on your thigh, making your cheeks glow.

"I'M JUST GLAD YOUR SAFE..."

You rested your head on his chest, tracing circles with your finger.

"Aww Paps~ I have nightmares too... Anyway, I've been thinking.."

He stared at you with curiosity, going back to stroking your hair like he always does.

"WHAT IS IT (Y/N)?"

You blushed and looked down, feeling your boyfriend's gaze on your head.

"M-maybe Sans had a point... I-I should teach you about the bone-zone..."

Your cheeks burned and so did his, even though you were pretty sure he didn't really know why.

"Y-YOU'D TEACH ME?"

His eyesockets sparkled with that childlike curiosity.

"S-Sure! I-I mean, Sans said he wanted neices and nephews, right..?"

Your voice shook as he hugged you tightly.

"OH THANK YOU (Y/N)! YOU'RE THE BEST GIRLFRIEND EVER!"

What had you gotten yourself into...
