Horrific Love

Chapter 6~ Rise and shine!

~Lust's P.O.V~

We eventually fell asleep leaning against my sofa, hugging. It was quite nice. Comforting almost. I didn't want this to end. I felt safe and secure cuddled up to Horror but I knew this wouldn't last. I knew he'd have to go back to his home. I shouldn't get attached to him.

While I was deep in thought I didn't realise that my brother came down stairs. His painfully fake cough brought me back to my senses almost immediately. Papyrus had a questioning look on his skull as he stared at me and Horror.

A purple blush appeared on my skull as I looked away quickly and detached myself from my cannibalistic counterpart. He didn't wake up. He seemed so peaceful and calm, so relaxed and tranquil. Sighing, I stood up and headed to the kitchen to make some breakfast for everyone. Papyrus followed me, practically launching himself at one of the chairs at the dining table.

"You seem tired" I noted. He groaned and I could hear him hit his skull against the table. Pap let out a whine of displeasure when his skull made impact with the hardwood of the table. What a numbskull.

"So why were you and your boyfriend sat against the couch instead of actually, you know, sleeping on it like normal people?" Papyrus questioned. The purple blush rose to my cheeks once again as he said the word 'boyfriend'  I didn't know what to say or how to react to that question.

I simply shrugged my shoulders and served my brother his breakfast. Pancakes with Nutella and strawberries. He thanked me and instantly ate every single thing on the plate before retreating to his room once again. 

A low grumble coming from the entrance of the kitchen made me jump half a mile. I quickly turned around to see Horror stood at the doorway rubbing his eyesockets and yawning. "what's that smell?" he asked, his voice low and gravelly almost. It was quite attractive. 

I shook those thoughts out of my skull replying to Horror with "oh it's just pancakes, chocolate and strawberries" I laughed nervously wishing for the floor to just open up and swallow me whole. Anything to get away from how awkward things felt between the two of us.

Horror made a slight grumble to show that he heard me as he headed towards one of the seats at the small dining table. The old wood of the chair groaned in discomfort and Horror plopped himself down on the chair.

I decided it would be best to give Horror some breakfast and I sat at the opposite end of the tiny wooden table.

I have a very strong feeling he hasn't eaten proper food in a very long time. How he's still alive... Well thinking about it I don't actually want to know. Especially after the whole eye eating situation.

Once I served him his food a huge smile spread across his skull and he thanked me greatly. Horror devoured the whole thing in under three seconds. It's starting to worry me how desperate he is for food and when he actually receives it, it's gone so fast you wouldn't have thought there was anything on his plate in the first place!

No matter how much I don't want to know I need to find out why he's like this with food. He seemed to amazed and actually jealous when I saw that I have so much food. I hope it's nothing too bad...
