Sitting By The Fire With You

It's Kinda Snowy, Huh?

Here I am, on the couch being the lazy bones I usually am. Christmas is fun, yeah, but when it comes to decorating for the holidays, that makes me feel bone-tired. Anyways, it's been at least two years since Frisk helped us get on the surface again. Tiba honest, seeing that sun for the first time left me sans words.

Paps always hosts a Christmas party for everyone in the neighborhood and pretty much every single person seems to enjoy it, though some people/monsters tries to sneak in alcohol into the party but I would always catch them red handed. Normally, my brother would try to make the decorations better from the last Christmas party and that would cause me to do more work. As you can see, I don't like to do a lot of things that involves making me move my bones, but, he is my bro and I can't say no to that.

"Sans, come help me put up the last stockings next to the Christmas tree!" I hear him yell across the living room.  I signed as I put my joke book that G̸̢̛͔̥̝̹̙̼̲͙̼͍̟̰͎̘̪̞͍̦̟̞̥̒̄̓͆̂̍̑́̎̅̓̌̈͗͋̾̓̆̊̎̽͗͘̕͘͝͝a̸̢̢̡̧̧̫̠̫̤̘̺͎͔̹̳̺̜̣̝̣̖̰̹̻̰̝̙̦͍̙̜͚͙̣̻̳̘͚̓͋̏́̏͆̀̒̓̂̏̈́̉̍̉͋̄̏̐̄͗͋̋̇̓̓̒̌̈̾͗͛̇̈́̚̚͜͝͝͝ș̷̨̢̡̧̥͇͖̠̗̙̝̳͙̥̠̭͕͚͍͖̮͖͍̗̻̯͕̞̟̟̝̽̓̀̽̋̆̏̇̈́̇͆̈́̃̔̐̿̽̿̾̕̚͜͜͝ţ̴̧̢̬͇͍̺̳͔̼̱͉̯̙͈̹͎̩̼͓̥̰̜͔̘̝̱̄̈̔̃ȩ̶̡͎̻̪̺̬͔͔̩͎̼̤̠͕̘͓͎͓͔̼̘́͌̈́͊̈́ͅṛ̷̨̨̛̣̫͇͍̩̹̺͚̹͍̥̦̳̪̩̯̼͍̯̀̏̒͆̌̌̏̊͂̾̋̓̉̏̈́̌͑̿͑̈̀̋͊̆̿͊̑͗̾̈́̍̚͘̕͝͝͠͝ͅ ̸̡̛̛̟̞̤̣͉̗͓͓̲͓͔̟̯̤̥̳̣͎̖̜̯̩͔̭̜͕͙̝̥͇͉̈́̃͆̒͐̋͛̂̄͗̄̅̈́̀͂̽̽̍̈͂͊̃́̓̈́̕̚͜͜͝͠- wait... What was I saying again? Oh well, I walked towards to where my brother was hanging up stockings that Frisk, Paps, and I made a year ago. Heh, good times.

After finishing decorating for what seemed like thirty minutes, we both sat on the couch and watched what was on TV. Nothing usually happens on the screen; Just regular news about the Holidays and Mettaton doing more tours around the country as always. While I was going to get the remote to change channels, we heard the doorbell ring.

"They're here!" Papyrus gasped in excitement. It's fun and nice to see him in such a good mood. Anyways, when he got to the door, there were so many monsters and humans waiting outside. Most of them were our friends like Frisk, Toriel, Asgore, Undyne, Alphys, Chara, and the weed- I mean, Flowey. As they got in we all exchanged hugs and gifts then later placed under the big tree that we kept for quite a while. Sitting in the middle of the living room. Honestly how has that tree not lost its color yet?

"Merry Christmas, Sans!" Frisk exclaimed while handing me a big box that weighed the same as an elephant. "God, that's so heavy! How did you carry that?" I chuckled as the kid just gave the usual "Determination" answer.

   "Well, we should probably get washed up before eating dinner, 'cause helping Paps made me feel bone-tired!" I suggested as Frisk and Toriel starting giggling. "I HEARD THAT!" We just started to laugh harder as Papyrus starting rambling about not making puns during Christmas.

   When we finished our feast and present exchanging (I got a pretty "ugly" sweater that says "The truth is that you got owned, nerd"). I decided to get some fresh air while everyone else was doing karaoke. I looked around at the snow around me. It kinda reminds me of Snowdin a lot (mostly because it also snowed there too).

   I took a deep breath and heard the sound of snow crunching behind me. Before I turned around I immediately said something.

   "I know you're there. Stop sneaking." I said out loud so they could hear me. The only noise I heard after my sentence was the noise of the cold wind blowing across my face. Before I turned around, I heard the stranger saying something softly but glitchy.

   "It's kinda snowy, huh?"

   Then when I finally turned  to see who it was, they just disappeared.
