Y/N's POV 

I wake up to crashes in the living room. I yawn and stretch my arms. Getting out of bed, I reach over for the clothes Toriel has laid out for me. 

She gave me a soft f/c hoodie with some f/c jeans. As I walk over to the bathroom across the hall, Sans and Papyrus are arguing again. I furrowed my eyebrows and stopped to examine the two. 

"SANS! YOUR SO LAZY! YOU NEVER DO ANYTHING!" Papyrus protests. Sans' eye lit into a red flame. 

"Seriously? You can't even capture a human!" Sans yells. Papyrus obliged Sans into a wall, using his magic. 

"Enough!" Toriel announces, separating the two. I turn away and head for the bathroom door.

Midnight pokes her head out of the kitchen, with a mouthful of pie. I sit in the living room, reading books about humans. "Hey Y/N!" Midnight removes the book from my grasp. 

"Hey Midnight!" I smile. 

"Do you want to-" She is interrupted by a thud in a room down the hall. 

'Should I go check on them?' I ask myself, thinking of the possibilities that could happen if I do. 'I better go..' I grab Midnight's hand and drag her to the door. 

I see the Skelebro's door has dents and it's cracked, from them fighting of coarse. I peek inside and a bone is flung at my face. I pull myself and midnight away before it hits us. 

Rose runs out of her room, still dressed in her nightly attire. "What happened!?" She comes up to me.

"Sans and Papyrus are fighting, Again! Where is Toriel when you need her!?" I pick up the bone and throw it to Sans and Papyrus. 

"She went to go get food from grillbyz...." Rose twiddles with her thumbs, staring at the hard wood floor. 

"I have had enough with you two! You act like children! And you both are considered adults!" I point to Sans and Papyrus, who are not very happy. "I'm sorry, but I've had enough! I'm past my breaking point!" 

I grab flowey's flower pot and take him out to the willow tree. "Are you okay...?" Flowey asks with a sympathetic look. 

"No.... not really.." I sit under the willow tree. the red leaves have fallen and look dead, crumbled. 

"What's troubling you?" Flowey wraps a vine around my arm. 

"It's just.. I never thought I would be in a situation like this... fighting for my life, saving monsters that I didn't even know exist. I'm in a lot of stress....." I continue. Flowey stays and listens, calming me down. (Flowey could be a therapist lol)

"Hey Y/N? Is everything okay out here?" Rose sits next to me. She hands me a piece of pie. 

"I'm alright, thanks.." I gladly take the pie and go inside, chatting with Rose and Flowey.

~

I sneak downstairs to the basement, making sure that no one sees me. "Y/N, We're going to get caught for sure!"  Flowey whispers.

"Don't worry Flowey, we'll be fine.."

When I walk down deeper, it gets darker.

I reach for a light switch, but feel something fuzzy instead. A red flames enlightens his face.

'Uh oh...'

He grabs my hoodie and lifts me off the ground.

"Where do you think YOUR going?~" Sans coos, tightening his grip.

"What do you want?" I hiss, struggling to get away.

"Answer the question, Sweetheart." A ripping noise comes from my sweatshirt. 

"Let me go Sans!" He throws me onto the ground, growling. Some of my HP goes down.

"Are you okay Y/N?!"  I rub my arm and wince in pain


"I'm okay Flowey...I think.." Sans steps closer.

Sans picks me up and carries me upstairs. I slam my fists into his back and tug his jacket, pulling off fur.

At the top of the stairs, he puts me down and walks back to his room, mumbling to himself.

"Why did he do that..?" Flowey asks, with a confused look.


"I don't know.." I reply.

"Rose?" I go across the hall and peek through the cracked door. Rose sits in the dark staring at a blank screen. I look at flowey and then turn back to look at her.

"Rose...?" I call out. She quickly turns her head and scrambles up to turn on a light.

"Hey Y/N. Do you... need anything...?" She said nervously.

"Oh uh.. I was just... checking on you.. do you know where Midnight is?" I look around and see scribbled pictures of what looks like creepy looking silhouettes.

"She's in the kitchen...." Rose grabs the papers and hide them being her back.

"Thanks. I'll come check on you later.." I close the door.

"That was weird.." Flowey says. I nod in agreement.

'Is she okay? Why did she hide those pictures from me?' I accidently bump into Papyrus while lost into thought.

"WATCH IT HUMAN!" He stops to look at me.

"Sorry.." I apologize and pass by him, walking into the kitchen.

"Heya Y/N, Flowey." Midnight cheers. She's sitting on the counter, playing with her tail.

"Have you noticed anything strange with Rose after we went on that walk in the catacombs?" She jumps off the counter and looks to see if anyone is listening.

"Yea.. she's been.. in her room a lot for the past few hours. It might just be something that will go away in a day or two."

"I hope so..... I really do.."
