As time had passed, It was getting closer and closer to my birthday. My twenty second birthday. I didn't want to be twenty two.. I was quite fond of twenty one. It was just a satisfying number, and age to be. As far as I could tell, the brothers hadn't even remembered. I was kind of glad. It had been like five years. I didn't really want to celebrate anyway. It seemed wrong for me to look for attention in such a way when most of their attention was almost on me anyway.
G and I had shared his bed and on lazy days, the couch. It had become the normal, as he refused to leave me by myself. I hadn't told him about seeing Gaster, when he found me, because I would never see the light of day again. It was easier to just accept the protection he had offered and if it made him feel a bit better about the whole thing then I would just bite my tongue.
Currently it was the night before my birthday and As usual, G was holding me while we watched Tv. A lazy day then I guess. I was staring blankly at the screen with my head on his chest as he ran his phalanges through my hair. He discovered that it put me to sleep quicker. Whenever we lay together at night, he did it. One of Mettaton's stupid dramas were on and G would've changed the channel.... But it was only to find a Mettaton Sci-fi...
I was tuned out, going through all the scenarios of the next few days. It was like we had grown accustomed to a schedule. I had been meaning to change that fact for months now. I didn't quite know how though.. We did everything during the walks we went on...
"You okay there Frisk? Ya look a bit rattled.. Heh" G inquired.
I allowed a small smile to reach my lips and I let out a content sigh. "Yeah, I'm fine. Just thinking.."
"What about dove? Maybe I can help put ya mind at ease?" He offered, sitting up a bit and raising his brow bone just a tad. God I loved how caring he was...
I glanced up at him and rolled onto my back, shifting my eyes to the ceiling. "Have you noticed the routine we have everyday? How we run on autopilot?"
He hummed in response so I continued. "It's been getting old, and I wanted to liven things up but I can't think of anything for all three of us to do."
"Hmm.. I got it. A party." He suggested.
I scoffed. "Yes, the three of us and the echoflowers... sounded like a blast.."
"Yeah, that's more of a date for the two of us anyway..." He trailed of.
I giggled. "Well, maybe we could let Papyrus set up some puzzles for us to figure out?"
"He'd like that I'm sure.. He loves watching people do his puzzles... " He thought aloud.
"Good, so then that's what we can do tomorrow?" I asked. When he nodded in agreement, a sigh of relief left my lips.So he did forget. Good.
That was easier said than done. The following morning, The first thing I woke up to, was Papyrus' eager nudge. "Frisk! Human, wake up!" He called out, softer than normal. What was he up to? Reluctantly, I opened my eyes, finding Papyrus with what looked to be a ca- Oh no...
A cake.. He knew
"Goodmorning Frisk! Happy birthda-" He shouted. Thankfully I had stopped him, as Sans was sleeping under me still.
"Papy, quiet down Okay? Don't want to wake G.."
When I removed my hand, he replied in a quieter tone. "But human, Why don't you want Sans to know about such an occasion? It's important! Almost as important as the great Papyrus!"
I winced a little. How was I going to avoid this...? "Papy he um.... I'm testing him! I told him a really long time ago to forget about my birthday, and this is a test! If he forgets, then I give him more ketchup.."
Papyrus had perked up just the slightest bit and I thought I was done bluffing when...
"Is that so...? I don't remember such a bargain..." G retorted, sitting up.
"Brother! You're awake!"
Oh no...
