Away, then back again (Scifell fanfic) (((DISCONTINUED)))

New phone, who dis?

           I slowly laid back down after jolting out of bed. I looked around the room and saw it was morning on my clock. I was gripping my blanket to no end, and my sweater had a huge tear in it. 'Damn. That dream must have got me good', I said to myself.
       I had a tendency to punch, kick, and grip when I was having a bad dream. Which is the reason my room is disastrous. I mostly dreamt about someone in my life dying. Whether it be someone important, or someone I despise; I had to watch them die in front of me. Even the dreams where people I despise die, it's still not a good dream to have.
       This was the first time I ever had a nightmare about someone I lo-. Papyrus all of a sudden burst through the door. "I heard a lamp break! Who got in?!" He said at the top of his lungs. I looked at the other side of the room to see a shattered lamp. "Woah, boss, calm down. I just slept punched again, nobody got in!", I said reassuring that nobody was around.
       He looked slightly annoyed, and glared at me. "Don't. Scare me like that. Again.", Papyrus said, pointing at me. He walked off in a huff and sighed loudly. 'Thank god he didn't notice the rip in my shirt', I thought to myself.
       I waited a few minutes in bed, and didn't want to get up. But I knew the boss would be mad if I didn't go to work today. But at the same time... All I wanted to do was go to Sci's universe just to make sure he was okay. I don't think I have ever cried over anyone's death, at least as much as I did for him.
          I missed him before. But now I miss him so much more. 'Damn it Sci. What are you doing to me?'. I laid in bed for a long time. I didn't want to get up if it meant I had to go outside looking like how I do right now. I was sweating, I had tear stains on my face, and my Christmas sweater was ripped.
         I was just about to get out of bed finally, when my phone started buzzing from the other side of the room. No body really called me except for Papyrus and Alphys. I was suspicious, but I teleported to the other side of the room to pick it up. It was a number I didn't know.
            I pick up and hear nothing at first. "Hello?", I said with caution. Then, I all of a sudden hear someone's voice on the other side. "I am always on time with jokes", the other voice said. 'No way', I thought. "I guess you could say I am pretty PUN-ctual", Sci said.
        
       "Sci? Holy crap I never thought I would hear you voice again!" I said happily. "Edge? Oh thank god this is your number!", Sci said, sounding relieved. I said, "How on earth did you find my number? Did you do some nerd crap to find it or something?". He said, "No... My bro found a phone number in my pocket and I was just hoping it was yours".
"Oh", I said.
"Why do you ask? Did you not put it in my pocket?"
"No... I regretted not doing that though, after I left."
"Then who put your number in my pocket?”
"I dunno. It wasn't me though."
"Well, either way I am glad my bro found it before it went into the wash."
"Yeah, me too", I said.
             We kept on talking, about the party, about what happened when we got home, and a few other things. I heard a knock at my door while I was telling him a story, "SANS! You are going to be late for work! Get your lazy ass up and let's go!", Papyrus yelled behind my door.
      "I... I gotta go. The boss is calling." I said over the phone. "Ok, I understand. Can we talk later?", Sci said. "If I am alive by later, then sure." I said with sarcasm. "Don't die.", Sci said sternly. "I know, I will try not to." I said while putting on fresh clothes. I walked out my bedroom door, "Alright, I gotta go now. See ya nerd", I said sounding disappointed. "See ya Edge.", he said. We hung up and met Papyrus outside.
          "Eh, sorry boss...", I said cautiously. He towered over me, and gave me a glare that implied certain death. I shrunk back into my hoodie, and started to walk backwards slowly. He then gave me a weird look and walked off into his own direction. I watched him head to Waterfall, and as soon as he was out of sight, I turned around and went to my post.
       
         There was nobody there today, so I just sat down and took out a bottle of mustard. I took a few small sips of it and then put it back under the table top. I laid my head on the table and looked around. I knew the kid would be coming today, so I waited until I heard snow crunching. I waited.
And waited.
And waited...
     I must have sat there for about an hour and a half just waiting for the human to show up. They didn't show up. Huh, odd for them.
        I decided to pay the old lady at the door a visit, just to see what was up. Also, because I was bored. I went to the door and sat down. I didn't hear anything at first, so I gave a small knock. Nothing. I knocked louder to see if she was even there today. Then I heard loud footsteps rushing towards the door. I here a loud bang on the door and then cloth sliding down the door. "You forget today?", I said. "Shut your damn mouth", the lady behind the door said.
             "Ruff day?", I asked. "No shit. I have a child to take care of", she said. "A monster kid, or?", I asked, already knowing the answer. 'That must be why the human is late today. They spent some extra time Toriel. I wonder why?', I thought. "A human child. They will certainly die out there. And they seem to fear me, more than my warnings.", she said.
      "I wonder why?", I said with sarcasm. She gave a huff and said, "Are we gonna start telling puns, or no?". I said, "Well... There is something I want to talk about. And... Since I know your secret about keeping human children on the other side of this door, I was thinking... I could spill a little too". "Oh really? What kinda secret is that?", she said. "Promise you won't tell anyone? Please. You know I hate promises, but I am keeping one for you. So can you keep one for me?", I asked.
        She agreed to keep whatever secret I wanted her to keep. "Ok... Here goes nothing", I said preparing myself. "I think I am in love with an alternate version of myself that is a complete nerd and I don't know what it is about him but I am not sure if I love him or if I just miss him and holy shit I don't know what the hell to do because he lives in another universe and ahhg!", I said, mostly in one breath.
       I heard nothing at first, and then I heard chuckling. It turned into laughter. "Oh my go-od, I didn't think the secret would be something like that!”, she said, laughing hysterically. I hid my face into my hoodie to hide my blush. "You said you wouldn't laugh", I said embarrassed. "I didn't say that. I said I would keep your secret", she said, sounding smug. "Whatever", I said.
          "So... You like this guy, but he is from another universe, and he's also you... But different?", she asked. "Grr... I said I might like him. I just... Don't know", I said. She responded, "Well... I know that out there love is seen as a weakness, so I am glad you came to me about this". I sat there and let her talk about her past before the ruins, even though I have heard her talk about it many times before. She asked me a question, "How much do you miss him"? I was hesitant, "I miss him a lot. I just want to go to his universe, and make sure he is okay, ya'know?", I said.
        "Make sure he is okay?", she asked. "Yeah... I, um, had a dream about him... Dying", I said. I fidgeted around in the spot I was sitting in, and was questioning why I was telling her all of this. Oh yeah, what better way to get all of your secrets out, than to tell someone behind a locked door just so that they won't remember anything tomorrow. Perfect plan.
            "If you had a dream about him dying, then that must mean you are worried for his well being", she said after some silence. "Well, no shit I am worried about his well being!", I said loudly. She kept on trying to make sense of my nightmare, other than the fact Sci dying meant I was worried about him. I tried to explain that the only thing that happened in my dream, was Sci dying; she didn't listen.
         I thought about it more, and wondered what else there could be in my nightmare. I couldn't really think of much. There was that weird clearing, I found Sci dying, he died, and then I think I died? I was confused but I didn't want to read much into it. Toriel still thought there was something else to it. "Lady, I should probably get back to my post before my brother finds out I am not there", I said. "Oh... Alright. I guess you couldn't stay for shitty puns today?", she said with a little sarcasm. "Not today", I said.
           I got up and walked away from the door. I decided to take a walk through the woods, just for some solitude. And then I think about the clearing. 'Does it even exist here?' I though. I decide to look around, and found nothing but trees and some dust. Living in Underfell, means that seeing random dust is just kinda normal. Sad when you think about it I guess.
        I go in all different directions, and find nothing but dead ends. I was about to give up and just go back to my post. At that moment, I heard something moving in the trees. 'Shit, someone is after me', I thought. I quickly bolted away from the sound and started to teleport spastically every few feet or so. I heard footsteps rushing up behind me. I stopped and used all of my magic to teleport back to my house.
           I, somehow, teleported safely into my room. I went to the front door, locked it, and did the same with every door and window. I then locked myself in my room and crashed on my mattress. It was only 2 pm, but I was still ready to go to sleep. It has been a long time since I had someone follow me in the woods. Last time was the reason I never went that deep into the woods again.
        I was just about to take a nap, when I suddenly remembered; I was supposed yo call Sci. 'Crap, I told him I would call him back'. I grabbed my cell phone and started going trough people who have recently called me. One number I recognised from this morning, so it had to be his.
       I also noticed that Papyrus called me a buncha times while I was talking with that lady, and whilst on my walk. Oops.
         I called the number, and listened to it ring. No one picked up. I called again and waited for someone to pick up. Still, no one. I was starting to internally panic. 'No, he's fine. He probably just has his phone on silent or left it at home. Just try one more time'. I called the number one more time. It ringed. And ringed. And ringed. I was starting to loose hope. Then, I heard someone pick up.
         "Sci? Is that you nerd?", I asked. He responded, "Y-yeah... I-its me Edge". "Sci? Are... Are you ok?", I asked.

"No... I... I'm not", Sci said, sounding as if on the verge of tears.

HAHA! CLIFF HANGER BABY!
Sorry this chapter took longer than normal. For one: It was a very long chapter (2100 words)
And second: Writers block is starting to take me. BUT I WONT LET IT!!
And sorry about there being no chapter art for this one, I didn't know what to draw and I didn't feel like making something super sloppy.
      Ok, the next chapter shouldn't take that long and hopefully it will be out soon. Also, did you notice I used more swear words than normal? That's because I wanted to make the Underfell universe sound as "Hot topicy" as possible.
      No, the f bomb will not be dropped unless absolutely necessary. So, most IG the Underfell scenes will be a but PG 13, so I hope that doesn't bother anyone.
Ok! Thank you for all the votes I have been getting these past few days and I hope to see you lovely people soon! Bye~
