A Matter of Light And Dark: A Deltarune Story

4.

"So what should we do now?" She asked enthusiastically.
Kris thought of something. But his stomach rumbled like a jet. "If you couldn't tell by that I haven't eaten. Do you want to go somewhere?"

"Sure actually. I can't cook, but it's only 7:10. The suns still out, do you wanna go to QC's?" Noelle questioned.

"Sure, why not. We got time to kill." Kris said, staring at the ceiling and fiddling with a pencil.

Kris got up from the bed and ran down the stairs and jumped on the couch. "J-Jeez Kris not so rough on the couch!"

"Sorry."

"Okay it'll be a minute before we go, I just need to get dressed okay?"

Kris nodded.

"Great!" Noelle skipped away into her room and shut the door.

Kris got a call from his mother.
"Hello mom." He picked up.

"Hey Kris! Are you having a good evening so far?"

"Yes. I mean.. I just left the house not too long ago, everything's- oh hold on Noelle's ready to go to dinner. Sorry mom, bye!" The call interrupted by Noelle coming down the stairs, dressed in a crimson blazer, her usual checkered sweater, a pair of dark stockings, and her usual black skirt so he hung up.

Toriel sat up from Chairiel. "Dinner?"

————

"Hey, you ready?"

"Yeah, sorry it took so long, I was putting on some other clothes that weren't my usual school clothes. It's one of my pet peeves that if I don't put on something nice when going out in company or public it kinda ticks me off." She said walking over to Kris.

"Well you certainly look stunning." He said in a rather flirtatious manner.

"Oh! Thanks Kris.. I uh.. don't know what to say." She said while blushing, and putting her hand to her cheek.

"Well what are we waiting for?" He said whilst springing up from the couch, "let's go to QC's."

Kris walked to the door, opened it, and said "after you." To Noelle, making her blush even more.

They were walking out to the streets of the town when Noelle asked a question.

"Hey Kris?" She asked.

"Yeah Noelle?" He said.

"After all this is over, do you think we could have another sleepover next week? I enjoy your company. And it's nice to spend time with someone who enjoys the same things I do."

Kris was wondering if he was busy next weekend, and he realized he had nothing to do. He was kind of perplexed at the thought of a sleepover with the opposite gender, because things could get weird, but he's just worrying about it too much, he thinks to himself.

"Sure we can, Th-that is if I'm not doing anything next weekend." He said, while stuttering.

"O-Okay! Sounds good!" She said gleefully.

The duo arrived at QC's and they pondered at what they would have to eat tonight.

"Well, now that we are here, what should we get?" She asked Kris.

"I think I'm gonna just have a burger," He said. "Their lunch menu in the winter season was the shit, that's what me and my brother always got when we came here, before he shipped off to college." He explained.
