Determination: a mage soul mate au

Old Friends

After we finished our tea with my mother, we decided to start towards home. "We should stop and get you some more clothes Sans, since I kinda pulled you from your life." I murmured as we stopped in front of a little clothing shop. "Sweetheart, you don't gotta buy me more clothes. I'm fine for now, you shouldn't spend your money on me."  Sans mumbled out as I turned to smile up at him, "I don't mind Sans, in fact, I insist. Come on, this is the best shop in town. I adore the monster that runs it. She's really sweet." I chattered back as I opened the door, leading him inside. The store was dim as well walked in, "Muffet! Are you here?!" I called out as Sans froze. "Fufufu...So my favorite customer finally got a familiar and a face I recognize. Its been awhile Sans." Muffet cooed as she descended from thr ceiling, her 3 sets of hands folded together in a pleased manner. "Hey Muffet, its been awhile, nice to see you're doing well." Sans grumbled out, his hand rubbing the back of his skull. She smiled widely, her little fangs showing, "I suppose you're here for clothes for this pile of bones to wear? Give me a moment, I have some things in his size."  She cooed as she skittered off, leaving Sans and I mostly alone in the main part of the store. Cupcake, Muffet's pet giant spider clicked at me, waving her front legs. I smiled and held my hands out for her to crawl into, "I'm sorry Cupcake, I didn't mean to ignore you." She clicked happily and patted my palm with one of her legs, letting me know I was forgiven. Sans quietly watched me interact with the Spider, gently letting her back onto the counter, "She sure likes you, Doll." He chuckled as Muffet came back with several nicely packed bags. "Well I didn't have much in Sans's size but I gave you everything I did, Dearie." She smiled again as Cupcake clicked at me happily. "How much do I owe you Muffet?" I asked, smiling up at her. "Just bring me some more of those pretty butterflies that Cupcake loves and we'll call it even." I pulled out some cash and tucked it into one of her hands. "No point in you getting in trouble for giving away clothes Muffet. I'll still drop off some Lunar Butterflies later this week." I said with a smile, picking up the bags of clothes. Sans started to follow me out the door when Muffet called out to him, "Sans. You take care of her, do you hear me?" He turned to look at her, his eyelights soft and his smile sincere, "I will Muff, she's everything to me."
