So, I landed in an AU that definitely looked familiar to me.

"Sis!" I got tackled to the ground.

"Hey, LT! How's it going?" I asked.

The Sans smiled, "Good! Any news from Luna?"

"Eh, she has a date... nothing much. I'm trying my hardest to get scripts done, but I needed a break. I decided to come here."

LT smiled at me, getting up and taking my hand. "Paps will be happy to see you! It's been ages!"

I nodded. "Yeah. He's been good I'm assuming? Ever since I decided on his outfit and such?"

LT smiled at me again, "Yep! He hasn't stopped talking about the colours you chose!"

"It's a similar one to yours."

"I know. But cmon! This is a perfect opportunity! We haven't spent time together in forever!"

I laughed, nodding. Truth be told, I haven't worked on my AU in ages. But, luckily, I got inspiration back, so it had new areas and landscapes to explore for the created characters so far.

LT led me to his house. It looked similar to any Sans house really, just a bit more... designed.

It had a moon painted on the door, with stars shown in the back of it.

That was pretty much it, besides the lack of snow.

I walked inside, LT closing the door behind us. I smiled, seeing Papyrus leaning against the stairs. He looked over, and a kind smile crossed his skull.

"Greetings, Milly... How are you?" He asked.

I smiled, "Eh, not too bad, Paps. You?"

"I'm just having a calm time here... it's nothing too much... things have been growing here, thanks to your imagination and inspiration to continue with creating."

My face heated up a bit, "Paps, stop!"

"Nyeheheh! I'm only kidding, Milly. Oh, Lady Toriel came by. She brought over some cake in a thanks to you for creating us."

"Thanks for telling me, Papyrus. Now, after food, we can have that cake. Don't get any ideas LT!" I called, hearing a curse be uttered from the kitchen.

"Come on! I love Toriel's chocolate cake~!"

I laughed a bit, "Not yet! We need to eat something proper first. As much as I love chocolate cake, I prefer to follow rules rather than break them."

He huffed, shifting to his Griffin form and letting out a roar.

I sighed, "Still no. Paps, mind making us something?"

Papyrus nodded, and left to go grab the ingredients. LT and I sat on the couch. He was normal now, and we made small talk.

"So, you've been having those nightmares lately?"

"No, not really.... they kinda stopped a while ago, although... after today's drive through some of the charred land, I'm thinking it might come back..."

"Don't worry... you're welcome to visit us if you get stressed."

"... Thanks... What would I do without you guys?"

"Still be in another fandom?"

"True, so true... but you guys got me writing and posting public stories."

"We weren't around at the time. But I'm glad you designed this world. I am so glad we make you happy."

"You do more than just that. You're a venting board."

We both laughed.

"We're your friends, Milly."

"Thanks LT..."

Papyrus walked out of the kitchen, holding a plate of spaghetti, nutella, and some sandwiches.

I smiled, "Thanks, Papyrus. But uh... why the nutella?"

"I figured Sans and you could try it. Why?"

"Well, fact is, I kind of know what it tastes like..." I blushed a bit.

"Alright, let's try this again. Why?"

I began getting nervous, playing with my hair, wild from being windswept. "Uh... N-no reason..."

"Tell me..." Papyrus smirked, putting the plates down. And placing the nutella down as well.

I swallowed nervously, backing away. Papyrus was one step ahead all the time.

But one thing I knew, don't let him know you have a secret.

Yet I let something slip that I shouldn't have, and now he uses it to his advantage whenever I don't want to speak up about something.

"P-Paps, I'll tell you later, okay? J-just let LT try the nutella!"

He smirked, "You better tell me, or else."

I swallowed nervously, nodding. LT tried it, and his eye lights brightened.

I smiled, "You know, you aren't supposed to eat it straight from the jar."

LT huffed, but kept eating it that way. It brought back memories, to be honest.

But, I ignored it. For obvious reasons.

Timeskip:

"AH!!" I yelped, jolting upwards. Another one...

Everything... on fire...

LT burst in, his markings glowing a bright silver. Papyrus followed, his markings shining with an orange glow, illuminating the room.

That didn't help my situation... not at all...

I cowered where I was, covering my face. I felt a hand on my shoulder, and slowly glanced up, but instantly hid again.

"Milly, please, look at me... you're okay... Everything's okay..." LT explained.

I carefully looked up, seeing the worried look on LT's skull. He dried my tears, smiling when my breathing got quieter.

"There... are you okay?"

I nodded, unable to speak. As I have mentioned before, fear made a jarring impact on me. If I see a cockroach, I'd be unable to sleep for 3 hours or so.

Yeah...

Not good...

"I'm glad you're okay... Everything's good, Paps. No need for the glow." LT smiled.

Papyrus turned down the glow of his markings, and walked over to me. LT's markings were still glowing a soft silver.

"Can you tell us what happened?" Papyrus asked, sitting on the bed behind LT.

"F-fire..." I stammered, my heart still racing a bit.

LT smiled at me, "It's okay... the flames aren't here, see? Do me a favour... do a scan of the room... slowly..."

I did just that, and afterwards, I had calmed upon seeing nothing. No fire, no flames...

"Now, what do you notice?"

"No fire..."

"Exactly... It was only a dream... it wasn't real, sis..."

I kept silent. I just hugged LT. He hugged back, and I felt Papyrus join the hug. When I had fully calmed down, LT and Papyrus went to leave but...

"W-wait..." I squeaked out.

They turned, and gave me a smile. They knew I wanted them to stay. They stayed close, and I had fallen asleep easily afterwards.

Even if we weren't truly related...

We were a family...

And the next day, I decided to move on.

I still never told Paps about the nutella.
