Edgy Love (fell Sans x reader)

Staying Determined

Sans POV

Once Alphys was gone, I looked down to (Y/n)'s sleeping form, she looked so calm, peaceful; though, she was a sweaty, oily mess. I laid down next to her on the bed, resting my back against the bed frame. I then took her hand in mine and went to examine it. Her hands were pulsating beyond belief, it's no wonder she was in so much pain. I turn my attention over to the monitor only to be thoroughly terrified at the sight. (Y/n)'s determination levels were below fifty percent, I'm not going to give up on you (Y/n)... I promise. I thought to myself as I kissed her hand.

After a few moments, I noticed that she was beginning to tear up as more void remnants fell from her closed eyes. I didn't know what to do, why is she crying?! I got up from the bed and caressed her cheeks in an attempt to wipe the tears away. "(Y/n), (Y/n) please, wake up. Let me help you. Help me understand what I can do to help you," I spoke as if to a brick wall due to (Y/n)'s lack of response.

(Y/n) calmed down in a few moments, so I let out a sigh of relief. "...It'll be alright... just... please stay determined, sweetheart," I said as I planted a kiss on her forehead. I then sat on the floor resting my head on the mattress, in the day we've been down here, stressing, working, and running back and forth in efforts to keep (Y/n) healthy and safe, it's just been wearing me down to the bone.

I then felt my phone buzzing in my pocket and felt instant annoyance. I pulled it out noticing that it was Papyrus, as much as I didn't want to answer, I knew Paps would be pissed if I didn't. "s'up boss," I said as I answered the phone.

"YOU KNOW WHAT'S UP BROTHER!" He exclaimed in rage. "YOU AND (Y/N) HAVE BEEN GONE FOR THE ENTIRETY OF THE DAY?! FRISK HAS BEEN ASKING ABOUT YOU BOTH ALL DAY! I DEMAND TO KNOW THE STATE OF (Y/N)'S CONDITION!" Papyrus yelled over the phone in outrage.

"Paps. Please tell me you're far away from the kid," I spoke as serious as could be considering none of us wanted Frisk to know about (Y/n)'s incident.

"OF COURSE! I'M NOT A FOOL, SANS. NOW TELL ME THE CONDITION OF (Y/N)!" Papyrus demanded. I just looked up at (Y/n)'s still sleeping form before speaking to Papyrus.

"She's incapacitated as she's been for the majority of the day," I said with concern in my tone of voice.

"R... really?" Papyrus said as he was calming down (out of pure worry). "How has she been when she's been awake?" He asked with curiosity in his voice with hints of concern.

"She's... she's either been tired or... in serious pain..." I said as I rubbed my forehead feeling tears brim my eyes. "Not gonna lie, Paps... I'm... I'm scared of what's to come. I mean, we had to drug her for her to sleep through all the pain and pressure on her soul. I don't know what's going to happen when she wakes up..." I said as I felt my breathing growing unsteady.

"...Sans... should... do you think we should tell Frisk what's happening with (Y/n)? This is getting seriously out of hand, we can't just-"

"No. We can't. (Y/n) will be ok. We just need to wait," I said to prevent Papyrus from telling the kid about her sister.

"Sans, I get it, but at least talk to (Y/n) about it when you get the chance. Please keep me informed as well," Papyrus said before I heard him hang up. I sighed to myself feeling guilty for not wanting the kid to know, but they don't need to know as long as (Y/n)'s going to be ok... but the question is... is she going to be ok?

"No... she will be. I can't think like that. I have to be determined for her," I said mostly to myself as I looked up at (Y/n)'s sleeping face. "*sigh*... I just hope you wake up soon, sweetheart," I sighed out as I held her hand in mine. I closed my eyesockets knowing well enough that I wouldn't be able to sleep as long as (Y/n) was in danger.
