The secret love life of Sans and Toriel.
...
It was a beautiful day outside, birds were singing, flowers were blooming. On days like these I would be taking my daily nap at my station. Papyrus will be around any minute to encourage me to recalibrate...
The next few days were a little wild. A human arrived at my station. Instead of letting him get captured by my brother, I decided to keep my promise and help 'em out. I continued to watch over 'em and guide 'em.

"You should of seen the look on the human's face when I put the hotdog on it's head and said, 'it's on the house. Well no, actually it's on you.'" She was eating up everything I told her about the human and me.
"Thank you for keeping your promise." She said gently and satisfied. I shrugged, "No problem."
"No, really, thank you for watching over them. It means a lot to me." I can tell she meant it. It made me feel important. I liked it.
We continued to talk about the human and of course, cracked some jokes.
The next day, I decided to write a secret letter to her. Even though I never put effort into anything, I decided to try.
I re-read it to make sure it was perfect.
"Dear lady, We've been talking for almost three weeks now. I was wondering if you could unlock the door, so we could meet in person. Right now I guess you could say I'm your 'secret admirer'. Heh heh, talk to ya sometime? ~your secret admirer"
I felt silly, but I didn't want to throw away all my effort. I was about to walk out the door when a hand stopped me.
"Sans? Where are you going?" Papyrus stood there, towering over me. I smiled uneasily. I couldn't tell him the truth yet.
"Um, I've decided to go recalibrate my puzzles." Papyrus narrows his eye-sockets at me. He then smiles greatly.
"WOWIE!! My brother has finally decided to do something worthwhile!" He smiled and strolled off. I release my breath.
Close one.
I trot through the woods and toward the locked door. I slid the note under the door and waited. I hear her pick it up.
After about a minute, she shuffles.
"I can't." My shoulders slump down. My heart starts to beat faster and I feel empty inside.
"I'm sorry, but I can't, I can't show my face." My eye-socket begins to twitch. I cover my left eye and try to calm down.
"But why?" I say upsettingly.
"I just can't." I hear her footsteps disappear.
Did she just leave me? Without an explanation?!
I slouch down against the door. I put my head in my hands.
I screwed up. I screwed up big time. Now she'll never want to talk to me again.
My left eye kept flickering.
No, no, no, no! Keep it secret, stay in control.
I turn my anger into sadness. I sat there, sulking for almost no reason.
I barely know her, she barely knows me, of course she would say no!
No, stay strong Sans. Don't forget about your brother. You must look after him.
