Criminal

My sleeping schedule is thrown way out of whack.

I could feel something poke into my shoulder. It was a little sharp. Then a shake. Another poke. A poke in the nose. Okay, this was getting annoying. I was shaken again and I opened my eyes. Okay, wow. I can barely keep them open and everything looks super blurry. I rub my eyes and look back up. I see S.
"you're finally awake. i've been poking and prodding you for quite a while."
"What time is it?" I ask, totally ignoring what he just said.
He looked at his watch and nonchalantly answered, "four fifty-eight pm. why'dya ask?"
"FOUR FIFTY-EIGHT?! WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY SLEEPING SCHEDULE?!" I yell in his face, shaking his shoulders.
"not my fault you're the one who got lost. i don't see how this place would be easy to get lost in."
"You might not know this, but it's VERY easy to get lost in this place."
"anyway," he says as he stands up, "let's get back upstairs. everyone's waiting." He holds his hand out to me. I reach out for his hand slowly, and hesitate slightly. He pulls me up to my feet and leads me back to the ground floor.
"FEMALE HUMAN!" yelled a familiar voice. I was suddenly hit with a big hug and lifted off the ground, "IT IS VERY NICE TO FORMALLY MEET YOU! I AM PAPYRUS, BUT YOU MAY CAL ME WHATEVER YOU WANT."
"It's... nice to meet you.. Papyrus..!" I say, trying to breathe. Being squeezed with a hug by a skeleton is NOT a good thing. Soon he lets me go and I almost fall onto my butt. He grabs a hold of my shoulders to help me balance. I look up at him. He's pretty tall for a skeleton.
"I HAVE DECIDED TO SHOW YOU AROUND, BUT SINCE YOU WENT ON YOUR EXPEDITION YOU DON'T NEED THAT, DO YOU?"
"Oh, no! I do need that, thank you very much! It might help since I don't actually know the place."
"THEN WE ARE OFF!" Papyrus picked me up again and carried me by my waist, putting my weight on his hip and he ran off to show me around the place.
Only I didn't know that S was looking at me the entire time.

At the end of the tour Papyrus gave me he dropped me off at my penthouse. He didn't even leave the elevator while I ran right out of it. We both laughed and he told me that he didn't think that this room is stable yet. It definitely wasn't finished, but I thought it was stable. After we said out goodbyes and he left I went on my computer and continued drawing my concept art. When I finally got done with the sketching a ding! went off on my computer and a notification came up at the bottom right of the screen.
"STS wants to chat: hey, missy, it's time to get some rest. i'll keep sending you messages like this every night until you stop complaining about your sleep schedule. good night," it read. I decided to respond.
"Ha ha, alright, S. Good night. I'm still keeping my computer on, though!"
"that's fine, just get some sleep already."
"Okay, good night."
I shut my laptop and head into bed. It's kinda nice to know that you have someone looking out for you, right? Yeah..
I fall asleep peacefully after that thought.

A female lies on a hammock in the dark, staring at a male looking through a telescope.
"Sooooo," the female started, "When do get to, I dunno, KIDNAP HER?"
The male rolled his eyes while looking through the telescope, "We aren't kidnapping her, we are SAVING her from that stupid mafia. She'll be a great addition to ours. She has great potential. They don't know what they're dealing with."
"Yeah, yeah. That's niiice," the female's voice drips with sarcasm, "but let's just get on with it, okay?
"Okaay... Now!" The man signaled and the woman jumped from roof to roof to the penthouse that I was in.
I heard a crash and opened my eyes. The glass room has been shattered and there's glass everywhere on the floor. I wonder how they're going to fix that.. Actually, I wonder "How did that break..?" I say aloud. I get up and maneuver towards my computer. There were a few glass shards on it, but none that would actually damage it. I sighed a sigh of relief because everything important is on this laptop. I swiped the glass off of it carefully so I don't hurt myself. Then I heard the elevator open and the light from it came pouring into the room. I looked towards it, and S was there.
"S? What are you doing here?" I asked.
"i heard a crash," he answered.
"All the way down there?"
"it's not that far from up here to down there, you know."
"Oh.. Well, I guess I'll head back to bed, then," I said, turning around and carefully heading back to my bed.
"wait."
"Hm?" I turn around, facing S.
"it might be best if you don't sleep here."
"Why?" I'll be fine, the only problem is if it rains, then everything will be soaked and.. MY COMPUTER WOULD BE RUINED!!"
"yeah, take your computer with you. you can sleep in my bed."
"But it's your bed.."
"i'll just sleep on the floor, come on," he said, going back into the elevator and waiting for me.
"Oh, okay," I said in response. I grabbed my blanket and computer, carefully hopping through the glass shards filled floor. I step into the elevator, and it began its decent. The elevator was filled with awkward silence. Soon the elevator door opened and S walked out. I walked out after him and he led me to his room. It was pretty boring. He grabbed a pillow and set it on the ground.
"Um.."
"i thought i already told you, i'll be sleeping on the floor."
"I know, but.. Um.. I don't mind if.. we sleep in the same... bed.. together.." S looked at me and sighed after a moment.
"fine, if you really think so," he said as he put the pillow back onto the bed and motioned for me to climb in on the other side. I climbed into the bed, facing away from him. My thoughts are wild with questions of why I even said that to him. After mere moments I could hear him snoring. This comforted me somewhat and pretty soon, I fell asleep as well.
Soon after, S had started cuddling me, and I would never even know that until I was awake.
