    "Is that your house?" Papyrus asked as he pointed to another building.
    "No, that's the post office." I sighed. He's been doing this for the past ten minutes we've been above ground walking to my apartment. I've never brought him or Sans there, so he points to every building he sees and asks if it is where I lived. Sometimes he even pointed to things like a fountain and asked if that was my home. Finally we reached my apartment, and he was very excited when I finally answered his question with a yes. He ran excitedly in front of me inside, and I shook my head and walked after him. 
    After taking the elevator to my floor and reaching my apartment I turned to Papyrus and gave him a serious look.
    "...What?" He asked.
    "Remember what I told you before we left?" He looked away and thought for a moment, and just as I was about to say something he spoke.
    "Oh yeah! You told me that we're just here to unpack boxes in your new apartment, and nothing else." He said while smiling. I couldn't help smiling back at him.
    "Right. Now let's get started." And I turned around and unlocked the door. Papyrus gasped as we stepped inside. My new apartment was much larger compared to my other one. It wasn't much now since most of my stuff wasn't unpacked, and the rooms were basically just furniture. The walls were a nice clean white, and the wood floor was polished not too long ago. Papyrus seemed most interested in the fireplace; he ran right up to it and looked closely inside.
   "Don't get too close Papy, it's kinda dusty in there." I giggled. Papyrus leant back and walked back over to me.
    "Alrighty human, I'm ready to assist you with your unpacking." He announced, and to further prove his point he saluted. I laughed and pushed his hand back down to his side.
"Ok, so I guess we can start by moving each box in the kitchen to the rooms they belong in. I labeled-" Before I could finish Papyrus was already running into the kitchen. By the time I caught up with him he was already holding four large boxes.
    "Where do these go?" He asked. I didn't answer at first since I was in awe by his strength. I knew that all my boxes were extremely heavy, so the fact that he was holding four without having any difficulty shocked me.
    "Well...um...the two top ones go in the living room...the third one goes in the bathroom, and the bottom one goes in my bedroom." I said, still in awe. Papyrus nodded and practically skipped out of the kitchen. After he left I leant down to pick up a box labeled for my bedroom. It was so heavy that my knees were bent as I slowly walked through the living room. I saw Papyrus come out of the bathroom and go into my bedroom with his last box. I slowly followed after him. As soon as I got to the door Papyrus was walking out of the room, and we nearly collided.
    "Oh...did you need any help (y/n)?" I scrunched my face up and quickly shook my head like a child.
    "No, I can do it myself." I said as I walked past him. I dropped the box on my bed, then walked back out of the room to get another box. The cycle of Papyrus carrying four or three boxes at a time and me only carrying one continued. Because of this we were able to get all the boxes in the right rooms within minutes. I plopped down on the couch when we were done. I felt bad about being tired since I did close to nothing compared to Papyrus. Papyrus barely even looked tired himself.
"What do we do now?" He asked as he sat down next to me.
"Nothing." I mumbled into the couch. Papyrus stroked his hand through my hair.
"I thought we were gonna go somewhere to eat though. And then we were going to start unpacking stuff."
"We are, but not yet. Right now I feel tired and crappy."
"How come?" I moved myself so that I was leaning against him, and he wrapped his arms around me.
"Because I'm weak and pathetic and terrible compared to you." I muttered. He let out a rather loud gasp.
     "Excuse me?! How dare you say that about yourself (y/n), you're amazing!" I looked up at him.
    "Not really." Papyrus opened his mouth to protest but I continued. "You're the one that's amazing. You're so strong, and tall, and kind, and..." Papyrus shut me up by pulling me into a tighter hug.
     "Human, even though everything you just said about me is true...you can't just put yourself down just because you think I'm better than you. Trust me when I say that you are very special and beautiful in every way, especially to me." I pulled away from him a little bit to look at him in the face. If my eyes could sparkle, they'd probably look like a night sky filled with stars right now.
    "Papyrus..." I said quietly. Papyrus smiled.
    "I love you (y/n)." Warmth filled my cheeks, and I could tell I had a huge goofy smile on my face.
    "I love you too Papy." I replied, and then I planted a kiss on his cheek.  Papyrus laughed nervously as an orange blush spread across his cheeks. "So how about we go get something to eat now?"
    "Can we get spaghetti?" Papyrus asked eagerly. I sighed and thought for a moment.
    "I want pizza." I said. Papyrus looked confused.
     "What's piz-"
     "Trust me, you'll like it." I said as I pulled my phone out of my pocket. After ordering a pizza I turned back toward Papyrus. "Sooo, whatcha wanna do while we wait for the pizza to arrive?" I inched even closer to Papyrus and twirled a finger in circles on his scarf.
    "Um...how about a puzzle? I saw that you had one in one of the moving boxes." Papyrus hopped up from under me and started running out of the room. "I'll go get it!" He shouted. I groaned and crossed my arms. Oh well, maybe next time...
