Sweet Sins

What happened to you?

*Heather's p.o.v*

Both Sans and I teleported back into the house where Papyrus and Frisk where drawing pictures together, Papyrus notices that we have returned and quickly gets up on his feet "SANS! HUMAN YOU HAVE RETURNED! HOW DID THE TEST GO? I HOPE THEY WENT WELL?" Papyrus smiles at the two of us and I try to return the smile but I can feel Sans's eyes on me, he looks stern. "O-oh um, they went okay. Nothing to worry about Paps. What are you two drawing?" Papyrus glows as I mention his drawings, he picks up one and flaunts it in my face "I DREW SPAGHETTI!!!" I gentelly giggle and draw my attention to Frisk. He lays on the floor skribbling away on the extra paper you had brought with you when you had fallen, you can't tell what they are making but it required a lot of black. "Hey Frisk whatcha drawin?" Frisk glances at me and then makes a puffy face as they hide their drawing, guess its not done yet. "BY THE WAY..." Papyrus squints at both Sans and I "WHY ARE YOU TWO HOLDING HANDS? WAIT!? COULD IT BE!? HUMAN!? ARE YOU DATING MY BROTHER!?" Oh yeah....I was still holding Sans's hand....or was he still holding mine? 

At the mention of hand holding we both let go of each others hand and blushed hard "B-bro, it isn't like that" I laugh lightly "Its not like that Papyrus..." We both looked away from each other blushing which made Papyrus squint harder and smile "I SEE... WELL" He rejoins Frisk in drawing "EVEN IF YOU TWO DID DECIDE TO I GIVE YOU MY RESPECTS! I ACCEPT THE TWO OF YOU TOGETHER! YOU TWO WOULD MAKE FOR A WONDERFUL COUPLE!" A grin makes its way to my face "Don't you mean a..." Everyone's attention is brought to me as I looked back at Papyrus "punderful couple?" I giggle at my terrible attempt at a joke which was enough to make Frisk giggle and Sans laugh, Papyrus on the other hand isn't pleased "GAH! THAT WAS THE WORST!" Sans wipes away a tear "Terrible but great." I blush in embarrassment.

I'm glad that I changed the mood...even for just a second.

Sans quickly grabs a hold of my hand again and teleports us to his dark bedroom "We could have used the stairs you know?" Sans shrugs "Too much work, and besides teleportation is faster." He then gives me a serious look "Now then, I don't meant to impose but, I need to know." I attempt to make space between us but he has a firm grip on my hand not enough to hurt. I knew this was coming but, I don't know if I can really talk about it now. Not ever, I wanted to get away from it. Why do I have to come back to it? "I need to know what happened to you on the surface?" I sigh knowing that there is no way to avoid it. In a hushed voice I speak "okay... I'll tell you."

*3rd person*

"My Father, before I was born, was a doctor and a scientist. He got his degrees at college like normal, except he was obsessed with the unknown, ancients, forgotten pasts and the Idea of magic." Sans listened closely to every word as Heather spoke "The only reason I know about that is because there used to be a kind woman that would come in and visit my father often, she always wore a white coat. I would always ask her about my father since he never told me anything. One day though she disappeared and I haven't seen her since then." Sans nods "She told me that my parents met because they had similar interests in legends and forgotten history...Well one day my father was doing research...after using me as a...stress reliever...and I guess he found something interesting." Heather squeezes Sans's hand "He brought home a strange book and decoded it into a formula, I don't know how it was made but he would... he would.." Heather takes a deep breath " He would come into my room at night and blindfold me as he took me away somewhere." Heather looks away at the floor as she speaks "I was on a cold table and tied up from my limbs, I couldn't see where I was so I was frightened. The next thing I know is that I feel pain in my chest and something cold being presses against it until it burned. I felt like someone was pulling and tearing at my chest." Sans looks down at their conjoined hands " I of course didn't just let it happen, I struggled with all my might to the point where the blind fold only covered a part of my face. I...remember him taking what looked like a glowing liquid into a syringe and injecting it into whatever it was he had yanked out of me. He had done this several times before he re blinded me with the blind fold...I think I passed out after that. During that time kids in my town had disappeared and...rumor had it that it was my fault... I think" Heather looks at her hand and Sans's "I think they knew I had magic and thought of me as a threat...perhaps they needed something to blame... they have searched everywhere for the missing children but...none where found." Heather takes a deep breath "After what happened to me I tried to ask my father why he would do terrible things...his answer then was to 'fix' me. Now if i ask him why he does what he does.. he'd say because he can because I am HIS daughter because I make his life hell and i deserve it..." She shakes her head "I never knew I had magic until i came down here. Until i left him. Until I didn't have to worry constantly if I was going to have another injection of the unknown again." Heather started to shake "He didn't inject anymore of the glowing substances in my body anymore after that. Instead he changed his focus to more sexual abuse and alcoholism. It was dramatizing and I never want to go through with it again, whatever that man did to me, I want to reverse it. I want to forget him." Tears started to flow down her face "But...no matter how hard I try to forget...how hard I try to move on...somehow...some fucking how.." Sans eyes widen to the language "Somehow he is always there! I can never run away from it! No matter how hard. I cant have a normal life Sans! That man....he....he.." Heather slowly sits on the bed and Sans follows as Heather slowly begins to cry. Sans takes his free hand and cups Heathers face making her turn to look at him, her eyes wet from tears and face flush from crying. He takes a thumb and wipes a tear away "Sans, I've never been able to have a normal life. He doesn't do anything to help when i'm being treated like dirt. He made the towns people truly believe I am a evil monster. I've never been treated with kindness or love my whole life. I believe that there isn't a way to fix me." Sans slowly shakes his head "From what I have seen, despite you having a terrible life up on the surface and being treated terribly, you haven't lived your life hating anyone. You are kind, sweet, thoughtful, playful, childish, adorable, funny, and caring." Heather blushes a little "You could have lived in hate but you didn't. You love your friends and your friends love you...I know I do." Sans smiles as he looks at Heather in the eyes with a sincere smile on his face. Heather's tears slowly come to a stop as she looks at him, her blush deepening. Again he takes his bony thumb and wipes away a stay tear from her cheek, Sans as well as a small blush on his face. "I'm sorry I made you talk about something so personal with me, after all, you barely know me. I'm just some skeleton guy who likes bad jokes." Heather leans into his hand and smiles "That's enough for me. I trust you with my life Sans." Heather looks him in the eyes as she gives him a smile making him turn even more blue. "Stars...how is it that after crying you can turn around and looks so damn...beautiful?" Taken back from the sudden complement Heather's blush deepens and she avoids eye contact, Sans chuckles deeply "Cute."
