Random Undertale One-Shots

PaperJam - Therapy

A/N: This song's stuck in my head... please play the song when I say so.
Enjoy!

~Ink's P.O.V.~

I walked out of the building, head down and hoodie pulled up over my face, concealing who I was to others. I hated people knowing that I went there. They all teased me about how I was the 'misunderstood artist' archetype. I just had depression. It's more common then most think. I bumped into someone on the street and looked up to see who it was... no. It could've been anyone but him and it would be hundreds of times better. I ran away quickly, not speaking from the fear that my voice would crack if I tried. Tears welled up as I continued to run. "H3y! C0m3 b4ck!" No. I can't. If he knew, it would be all over. I turned quickly into an ally, creating a portal and running into it. I looked at my surroundings to realize that I was in Outertale. My safe space. I sighed and pulled my hood down, looking at the stars and smiling softly while tears continued to fall. I began to sing softly as I sat down on a cliff. ((Play song now))

"My ship went down in a sea of sound, when I woke up alone I had everything
A handful of moments I wished I could change and a tongue like a nightmare that cut like a blade

In a city of fools, I was careful and cool, but they tore me apart like a hurricane
A handful of moments I wished I could change, but I was carried away

Give me therapy
I'm a walking travesty
But I'm smiling at everything
Therapy...
You were never a friend to me
And you can keep all your misery"

My voice slowly became louder and clearer as I continued to sing, being calmer and more relaxed with myself.

"My lungs gave out as I faced the crowd, I think that keeping this up could be dangerous
I'm flesh and bone, I'm a rolling stone
And the experts say I'm delirious

Give me therapy
I'm a walking travesty
But I'm smiling at everything
Therapy...
You were never a friend to me
You can take back your misery

Arrogant boy, love yourself so no one has to
They're better off without you
They're better off without you

Arrogant boy, cause a scene like you're supposed to
They'll fall asleep without you
You're lucky if your memory remains

Give me therapy
I'm a walking travesty
But I'm smiling at everything
Therapy...
You were never a friend to me
you can take back your misery

Therapy...
I'm a walking travesty
But I'm smiling at everything
Therapy...
You were never a friend to me
And you can choke on your misery."

I sighed and closed my eyes, smiling and relaxing at the lack of noise before a voice I recognized fairly well spoke, "W0w 1nky. 1'm 2upr123d y0u d1dn't 2h0w th12 t4l3nt 0f y0ur2 200n3r." I jumped and turned around. "No. Nononono..." I muttered and stood up, fear in my eyes. "1nky?" My calm state was taken away as quickly as it appeared. I backed up, trying to get away. "1nk!" I fell off of the cliff, soundless. I just closed my eyes and smiled. "I was never a friend to me..." I felt strings wrap around me and pull me up. Error... saved me? Why? Doesn't he hate me? I kept my eyes closed, expecting Error to do something but all he did was place me gently away from the cliff. "1-1nk... 4-4r3 y0u 0k4y?" I slowly opened my eyes to see Error crying. I stayed silent, not wanting to accept that the person who I wanted this to stay away from the most saw me like that. Error sighed and pulled me into a tight hug, gaining a gasp of shock from me. He hates physical contact... I tear up again and hug Error back, beginning to sob in Error's arms. "Y0u 4-4lm02t d13d..." I could only nod with my mental state.

~Error's P.O.V.~

I stood up with Ink in my arms, opening a portal to my house. He tried so hard for people not to know, but here I was, holding a sobbing and broken Ink. I looked at Ink, sad that this is how I found out and set him down on my bed. He probably needs sleep. I tried to walk away but was pulled by the sleeve of my jacket. "D-don't go... please..." I nodded and lied down next to Ink, cuddling with him and rubbing his skull gently. I felt Ink go limp in my arms as he fell asleep. I sighed and fell asleep as well. I'll try to talk to him about that when we wake up.

~smol timeskip~

I woke up to the lack of Ink. "Wh4t..." I groaned, rubbing my eyes and sat up before leaving my bed to look for Ink. "1nky? 4r3 y0u 2t1ll h3r3?" I walked to the living room to see Ink curled up, crying. I sighed and sat next to the couch, rubbing his back. "1nky..." "You were the one person who wasn't supposed to know..." My eyes widened as Ink spoke. "W-Wh4t?" Ink sat up, seemingly upset at himself more then anything. "You heard me. I didn't want you to know." I looked away and frowned, why me though? "1-1m 20rry..." If I never followed Ink, I wouldn't have known... "It's not your fault. It's mine. I'm so fucked up anyways." "W3r3 4ll fuck3d up 0n3 w4y 0r 4n0th3r." Ink chuckled at my response. He's somewhat happy now. I think. That's good. "Y0u kn0w 1 m34nt 1t wh3n 1 s41d y0ur3 4 g00d 21ng3r." Ink frowned and looked away. "It's something I don't like sharing..." I sighed and sat next to Ink. "W3 4ll h4v3 th1ng2 w3 d0nt l1k3 2h4r1ng..." Ink nodded as I wrapped my arm around him, hugging him tightly. "E-Error..." I hummed and cuddled with Ink, content and peaceful. "Y34h?" "W-why are you so nice to me?" I closed my eyes and sighed. "B3c4u23 y0u n33d cuddl32." "No I don't." "W3ll 1 w4nt cuddl32." Ink sighed and gave into my hug, placing his skull on my chest. "Fine..." I smiled and hummed the song Ink sang yesterday. "Why are you humming that song... there's thousand of others..." "B3c4u23 1 l1k3 th4t 0n3 th3 m02t." "I highly doubt th-" "2hhh. N0 t4lk1ng." I shushed Ink and continued to hum. I wasn't lying when I said that I liked that song the most. It's one of the few songs that I can listen to when I'm upset. I've memorized the entire song actually. Ink began to silently sing the lyrics to my humming, calming him down even more. Once the song ended I nuzzled Ink's neck. Ink whined and hugged me. "No... not there..." I giggled and continued to nuzzle Ink's neck. "Error..." Ink continued to whine as I refused to stop. "N0. 1 w4nn4." Ink sat up, blush dusted on his cheekbones. "Nooooo." It was my turn to whine now. "1nkyyyyy. Why n0t?" "B-because I'm sensitive t-there..." Ink's blush grew as he stuttered, making my grin grow. "20? 1 w4nn4 cuddl3." Ink groaned and nuzzled my chest, whining softly. "Fine..." I smiled brightly and nuzzled Ink's neck again. We stayed like that for hours until Ink fell asleep. I giggled and picked him up again, bringing him to my bed before cuddling with him again, falling asleep with him in my arms once more.

~Ink's P.O.V. + smol timeskip~

I woke up to Error's tight embrace, making me blush. I've liked Error for some time now ever since we've stopped fighting. He's a really nice person but I still don't understand how he's so okay with all this physical contact... I know that he has haphephobia. It's one of the things that I found out quickly when we stopped fighting. I felt Error shift and slowly wake up, making me close my eyes quickly and pretend that I was still asleep. "H3h. L0v3 y4 1nky~" My blush grew from that and I tried to hide it by putting my face in his chest but failed horribly. "1nky~ 1 kn0w y0ur3 4w4k3~" I whined and kept my face in his chest. "I'm comfyyyy" Error giggled at my state, thinking I was half awake and tilted my head to him kissing my forehead gently. "H3h." My eyes widened and my blush grew more if it was even possible. Error... does he love me back? I looked at Error, who was staring at nothing. He's probably thinking about something... I shook slightly with nervousness as I pushed Error's skull down gently and kissed him on his teeth. Error quickly returned the kiss, making me happy that he loves me back. What felt like forever but much too short for my liking, Error broke the kiss. "I-I love y-you Error..." "1 l0v3 y0u t00 1nky."

A/N: I'm so sorry that I haven't been publishing more one-shots. I've been really busy with finals and I'm making a new book from the request of a close friend. I hope you enjoyed this chapter! I know I already posted a PaperJam one but I'm making an Afterdeath one and I wanted to make one with this song. Have a nice (rest of your) day!
