16.Frostbitten

I stepped out into the snow, where my vision was immediately clouded by the color white. Snow was raining down far too fast and hard for me to make out which was Frisk had gone. I looked out, quickly making up to go left, which I did, bolting out of the house towards waterfall.

"Frisk!" I called, looking best I could left and right. I tightened my jacket around me, I may not feel the cold, but the frozen snow was sticking to my bones, only slowing me down farther. This is when I had begun to panic, Frisk was out here in this mess. "Frisk!" I called again, louder this time. I thought I had heard a muffled cry back, I didn't care who from, I started heading in the direction I had first heard it.

Reaching the little figure shaking in the cold beneath a large pine tree, I didn't hesitate leaning down to the little shivering, crying mess before me. Snow covered their body entirely, and their tears only lined their blue face. I immediately peeled off my jacket an placed it around Frisk.

"I'm so sorry, kiddo..." I whispered to her gently as I lifted her up out of the snow she was now piled up in. I hugged her close, teleporting home right onto the couch. I hopped up the stairs to my room, grabbing all the blankets I could find before flying back out down to her, gently taking off my snow caked jacket and her striped sweater, leaving her in a tank top and a shivering mess. I was now freaking out trying to wrap her up in the most comfortably way possible without hurting her frost-bitten form.

Once I had finished with that, I popped into the kitchen turning on the stove. I pulled all I could find from the cupboards that could help warm her up. In the end I had either coffee or earl gray tea, I hoped she like tea, as that's what I struggled to make. When it had finished, I ran out with the cup steaming gently in my hands and I handed to her, slowly her little purple fingers took it and grasped it weakly.

"Hey... Frisk if you don't want to hold it, I will..." I offered to her, sitting beside her on the couch, she shook her head very lightly, I hung my head. "I'm sorry, what I had done was... heh, very rude, mean and all that..." her eyes turned to look at me, and I placed my skull in my hands. "I don't expect you to forgive me so soon, I'd really rather you not. That was all in the past. Guaranteed, that I also just can't walk away from that past but I-" she placed her hand on mine, shutting me up. She was shaking again, her hands could barely support the cup, but her eyes lined with tears. I tried not to break and just let it all out as well, I hadn't done that in a long time in front of someone, beside Crystal. I took the cup from her, and looked into the tea glumly. Before I had known it, I felt Frisks hand on my face, I turned to look to her to see that she was trying to smile to me in a comforting way. As her hand pulled back, I had also seen, that there her hands were returning to their normal color, and her had wiped away tears. from my face.

My hand flew to my face as I wiped them away as quickly as I could, only to have them replaced with new fresh tears. Frisk looked up to me sadly, yet she was still smiling. She poked out of the blankets, freeing both of her arms, and she wrapped them around me. I froze again, but I accepted it as I let go and began to shake more, letting the tears go as I turned and returned the hug. She seemed shocked by my action, but went with it as she also let go and began apologizing repeatedly. I couldn't say anything, as I was too afraid too, afraid I'd say too much. or just scare her away again. I was actually really nice to have someone to confide in. To just let it out with, and show who I truly am.
