Just Like Me

Part 5 (Bike Ride)

I walked through the park with my earphones plugged in, Ed Sheeran's Perfect playing, the soft music was so nice and calming. I stooped when I reached the Dams edge, I watched as the sun started setting, a soft smile on my face. The water was smooth, water rippling it every now and then, my thoughts wandered to Papyrus, I was really confused about him, about how I felt.

Without a doubt I liked him, his cocky smile, his interesting personality, the way he always made me smile, there was just so much to him that I really I liked yet I hardly knew him. The wind rustled my dress slightly and I sighed before swaying slowly to the music,

"Gotcha,"

I squealed as I felt a pair of boney arms encircle my waist, Papyrus swung me around with a laugh and I giggled, my heart fluttering. See even when he surprised me like this my stupid heart would beat like crazy or flutter uncontrollably. He sat down while still holding me so I would sit in his lap, I blushed but it felt nice, I looked back at him,

"You scared me you know?"

Papyrus shrugged with a grin,

"You weren't at the Rink so I started walking back home I saw you and saw that perfect opportunity,"

I giggled and Papyrus let go of me so I could sit next to him, we were silent for a bit, just watching the sun set slowly, then Papyrus tugged the earphone out of my ear and brought it close to where I guess he could hear,

"Slow music?"

I blushed and the song changed thankfully,

"Umm yeah, I like to indulge myself in it sometimes,"

"Can you play it again?"

I paused before changing the song back, I carried on watching the water as the music played, I felt a pair of eyes on me and turned to look at Papyrus, he was watching me, I smiled,

"What?"

He shook his head still smiling and looked ahead, now it was my turn to watch him, with the music in the background it was kind've cheesy but I couldn't help it. I took note of how the sun sent soft streaks along his skull, softening his features, that's when I got an idea,

"Hey want to go for a ride?"

Papyrus over at me, his eyes moved as he scanned my face and he smiled softly,

"Where'd you have in mind?"

I plucked the earphone out of his fingers and stood up, brushing the grass off my legs, I put my hand out, he looked at it and then looked around, I smiled reassuringly and he took my hand with a smile, I helped him up but my hand stayed in his which made him blush slightly, we walked together like this all the way back to my apartment, he watched me every now and then smiling every single time, I took us the back route so no one would catch us holding hands.

We went straight down to my locked garage, my gear was already waiting so I just slipped it on, I showed Papyrus where he could change so now I waited, he walked out the changing cubicle in black jeans, an orange shirt and a bike jacket, he held a helmet in his one hand. He looked hot honestly and I grinned,

"You look good,"

Papyrus smiled,

"Listen I'll be honest, I've never been on a bike before,"

I climbed on my bike holding my helmet,

"Don't worry, you'll be safe,"

Papyrus climbed behind me and I flushed at the intimacy of the way we were seated, I looked up at him and he looked down at me,
