A/N: This au is made by me but @Cookiebell3 mentioned cuddletale, this is kinda that but I made this up a few months ago. Battling is the same but more merciful. Sans wears a pastel pink hoodie with white floof triming and his normal black shorts with the white stripe. He also has pink magic. Papyrus wears a pink scarf, pink boots and his normal white chestplate and black lining. Basically like valentines day colors. I haven't thought out the full costume designs for them though, anyway heres the story. Also TRIGGER WARNING. 


You just made it out of the store after twenty minutes of persuading the store keeper to that you were fine. You had to act like you were fine. Flowey was right, in this world, it's cuddle or be cuddled. You hated this place. You fell down here to d...get away, not have a bunch of cuddly monsters try to make you feel better. You had a tactic to hide your souls true looks. To a monster, it looked like a normal (f/c) human soul. It really looked grey and cracked, as if ready to fall apart any second. Every once in a while the pain in your soul would throb, just like on the surface. Frisk went on to king Asgore. You just stayed in snowdin. You only earned money from snow poffs. The inn manager said you could stay for a discount since she kinda saw through your mask when you were first trying to act like it was fine. 

You just wanted it to be over. You were insecure and self loathing. You had many self destructive thoughts race through your head. Avoiding monsters was hard, especially Sans. He would always come greet you kindly and try to help you but you refused. It got to the point you were having a hard time keeping yourself looking happy and had to yell at Sans. It's not that you didn't like him or any monster, it's just that you didn't want help, sympathy, or hugs. You had a hard time with people touching you. A handshake is fine but nothing more. It made you feel uncomfortable unless you trusted them dearly. To be honest you loved Sans, he was so kind and gentle but, if anything were to happen to him, your soul wouldn't be able to handle such pain so you didn't get to close to him. 

Once you got to your room and put away the food you realized you needed more money. You went out again to go search through snow poffs. "Hello (y/n)." You heard the gentle voice from behind you. "What do you want Sans?" You ask trying not to sound irritated. "Just wanted to see how your doing." He replies. "I'm fine." You say finding 10g in one of the snow poffs. "You don't seem ok. I can tell when someone is lying." He says but still uses a kind and gentle tone. "So, what do you care." You regret saying that because when you glance at him he has a worried expression. "I care a lot. More than you would know." He says. "Ya well why don't you just go care for your brother or other monsters or somthing." You say trying to hold back a few tears. 

"Because I want to care for you to. Why don't we go to Grillby's, my treat?" He suggests. You hate this. You hate these monster and this place. You don't deserve their kindness. Your still a softy on the inside so you agree. "F..fine." You say. Sans smiles and offers to hold your hand but you decline, causing a sting of pain to course through your soul. You secretly want comfort but only from someone you trust. I mean, you trust Sans, and Papyrus but you don't believe you deserve there affection. Once you get there, you sit at the counter. You just order a drink. "So kid, will ya tell me whats eatin ya?" He asks. "Why?" "Like I said before, I care for ya." He says. "I heard you the first time but why do you care for me?" You ask. He pauses, his face dusted pastel pink. 

"Look, ya really want to know." You say getting frustrated. Maybe if you just tell him he will leave you alone. "I hate myself, I hate what I do and how I look. I hate everything about me. I've done bad things so I don't deserve anyones kindness! I am self destructive and sad! And I hate everyone down here for trying to comfort me when I don't deserve sh*t! I fell down here so I could die, not have some monster try to fix me! Not to mention I love you but I'm to afraid to get close because if something happened to you I wouldn't be able to handle it!" You finish, tears running down your face. Sans's eyelights went out. You got up and ran out the door before he could say anything. You ran into the woods. You ran till you couldn't anymore and fell to the ground by a tree. 

You tuck your knees to your chest and burry your face in them. You cry hard, your gaurd being let down. You heard the sound of rapid footsteps then they slowed. "(Y/n)." The voice said. You knew it was Sans. He knelt down and hesitantly placed a hand on you arm. You look up and he opens his arms for a hug giving a sad smile. You don't care at this point so you lunge into the hug, burying your face in his jacket and crying. He wraps his arms around you securely and holds you close. He had been waiting so long to do this. He picked you up and teleported to his room and sat down on his bed. He rubbed your back softly. You cried all the pain out and Sans was there to help. A bond grew during this time as he helps you in your time of need. 

Once you calm down some, only whimpers are left. Sans rocks you back and forth and continues to rub your back. This lulls you into relaxing. "Ya doin' better sweetheart?" He asks. You nod slightly. "Good, I need to see your soul for a second now." He says and you tence. "Don't worry." He says. You lean back for a moment while your soul pops out. It's grey and cracked. There are pink tears in the corner of his eyes. He summons his own soul. A few little sparks of pink appear and touch your soul. You begin to cry again. "I know sweetie, it's just emotional healing." He says and rubs your back. You tremble slightly as you hold onto his hoodie. Your emotions are fighting the healing. "Easy (y/n), easy. Just relax, it's ok." He says You nod and try to contol your breathing. 

It's soon over and your soul looks glassy now with a (f/c) tint to it. It goes back in your chest and so does his. "Now (y/n). What you said back at Grillby's really gave me a shock." He says. You look away. He gently cups your face and has you look at him. "You are beautiful. Your are an amazing person. It doesn't matter what you have done. The past doesn't define you. Your perfectly fine the way you are...and, I love you too." He says. You look at him in suprise. "Now say your beautiful." He says. "Your beautiful." Your repeat. "Ha ha, very funny, you know what I mean." Sans says. "I..I'm beautiful." You say blushing. "Now say you deserve comfort." "I..I. . .d..deserve comfort." You repeat again. "Good, come here you." Sans says and pulls you into a hug. You accept it and hug him back. 


You both have bonded a lot in the past two weeks. Frisk has broke the barrier and you all lived on the surface. Sans was your cuddly boyfriend, however you were shy. You both were sitting on the couch watching TV. "(Yyy/nnnn)~!" Sans whined. "Wut?" You reply. "Come cuddle with meeee!" He says. You blush and hide your face in your hands. "What if Papyrus comes in?" You ask. "He's not going to make fun of you because your cuddling with me." Sans says. You puff out your cheeks like a kid. Sans leans over and drags you to him. He engulfs you in his arms and nuzzles you. You relax and just cuddle with him to.
