Light in the Dark (Deltarune M!Kris x F!Monster!Reader)

Down we fall

(Hello, the picture is a drawing of my Deltarune oc, the reader is based on how she looks, other than color, and hair style.)

I sat in my dad's car as he drove me to my new school. A few months ago my mom had fallen down, soon after, she died. My dad then needed a better job, and he found one, in a small town, called Hometown. It was a few hours away from my old home, and that's ok because I can still visit mom's final resting place. 

"How you doing back there kiddo?" my dad asked, looking back to me using the rear view mirror.

"Fine" I mumbled, holding my strange tail close to my body as I brushed the fur on it. I felt so awkward with my tail, it had a face and mouth, mom had one like it. I must have gotten it from her side, that I knew. 

My dad pulled up to the school, we both knew I was late. "Ok," my dad said, "Better hurry in kiddo, your already late as is. I love you and I'll see you after school," he finished with a smile. 

I moved a bit of my hair out of the way, "Ok," I said faintly, giving him a small smile, "love you too, bye". 

Hopping out of the car, I closed the door, watching as my dad drove off. I looked up at the building, I let out a deep breath as I walked inside.

I took out a small piece of paper my dad had given me, to remind me of who my teacher was. The paper read "Miss Alphys". The problem was, I didn't know where my class was.

Suddenly my ears perked up, looking behind me a tall goat monster walked into the building along with... A human..? The tall goat lady looked like a teacher. She also had a very friendly, and welcoming aura around her. 

"What are you doing out of class, child?" she asked in a sweet calm voice, breaking me out of my thoughts.

"I'm new, and late," I mumbled quietly.

"Could you please speak up, child?" she asked, as I let out a small sigh. This was so awkward. I hated it. 

"Hmm," she started, "Oh, are you the new student?" she asked, and I nodded. "Which class are you heading too?" she asked, as I stopped fiddling with the paper in my hands and simply handed it to her. "Oh, my son also has Miss Alphys," she turned to the human next to her, he seemed to have been staring at my tail, so I hid it. "Kris, can you walk her to class?" she asked him and he nodded.

"Thank you Kris" she said before walking off, I watched as she did so, but turned back to Kris when she walked through a door. We both stood there for a few awkward seconds, I shuffled my wings a bit. Then Kris started walking to the left, and I followed.  

We stopped at the door to the classroom, and stood there for a second. How many times must I say how awkward this all felt?

*Slam!* 

I jumped, looking at Kris, he had opened the door which caused the loud slam. I came up behind him a bit, now seeing I was just ever so slightly shorter than the human boy. I made sure I wasn't close enough to touch his green and yellow striped sweater. 

"O-Oh, Kris... We taught you w-weren't coming today." a shy voice said, I assumed it was Miss. Alphys'. Kris walked into the room, leaving me standing in the doorway. "O-Oh..!" Miss. Alphys said as she saw me in the doorway, "Y-you must be (Y/N), our n-new student!".

I nodded my head. "Okay th-then, we're doing g-group projects, w-would it be fine i-if I put you a-and Kris in a g-group?" she asked, I nodded my head again. "E-Excellent, y-your seat is be h-hind Birdly" she said, pointing to a desk placed behind a blue bird monster. Again, I nodded and took my seat, I could feel the others looking at my tail as I walked.
