Serifa woke up hours later, feeling stronger than before. She immediately noticed Sans sitting on the floor next to her. His head was tilted a bit, lying on the bed. He had fallen asleep with his earphones on. Serifa couldn't help chuckling at his goofy expression.

She also couldn't help wondering why Sans was helping her so much.Everyone in the Underground who knew she was a human wanted to kill her and Sans would probably also get in trouble for helping her. So why was he risking so much just to do it?

Her thoughts were disturbed by a loud alarm sound coming from Sans's earphones. Sans woke up instantly, and removed them.

-Oh,you're awake...Sans said in a sleepy voice while rubbing his face.

-What was that sound Sans?

-Well...it had gotten pretty late and I knew I'd eventually fall asleep, so I put an alarm in my earphones... Didn't wanna wake you or Papyrus...

-Who's Papyrus?

-Oh,just my brother sleeping next room. Don't worry, I told him you were a monster that looks like a human. He won't harm you.

-Why are you not sleeping if it's so late anyway?

Serifa suddenly realised the bed she was in was Sans's all along.

-Oh...I...took your bed?

-Juuust for a little while! Sans smiled.

-Come on, you need some sleep too. I don't wanna force you out of your bed...

-Don't even worry about it! Anyway, are you feeling any better? I see you have regained your colour.

-A lot, actually. Thanks for helping me...

-I told you, don't worry about it!

Sans smiled and touched her forehead.

-Let's put a thermometer on, shall we?

He took a thermometer from his cabinet and put it in her armpit.

-I also got you some fruit. They are good if you're sick.

-Why are you doing all this? Serifa asked, while Sans was bringing her some apples and oranges.

-You're a precious...friend of mine.

Serifa sat up on the bed, by herself this time, and took an apple Sans was offering her.

-Aren't you risking a lot helping me, though? Especially for someone you just met.

-As I said...you're my...friend. At least...that's what I feel.

Sans looked away, blushing again.

-Well...Even though I don't know you a lot...I feel you're my friend too! Serifa smiled, eating the apple.

-So,you don't have to worry about it!

They continued eating fruit together. Sans hadn't eaten fruit in ages.

-Man, I should get some fruit more often. I had almost forgotten the taste!

-Geez Sans, you have to eat healthy sometimes! Serifa laughed.

-Welp, I'm a skeleton. I don't really need to eat healthy, do I?

-You...know better I guess.

-Let's check that thermometer, shall we?

Serifa gave Sans the thermometer.
