Abandoned Ruby

~Ruby~

(Yes the art is mine. It took hours to finish and compared to Ruby's old design. Let me know in the comments what you think of her updated version ^^)

The small skeleton called Sans is cleaning my hurt arm, it stings like hell and hurts to move it...but the taller skeleton called Papyrus or Paps is holding my hand which somehow makes me feel better.

I was scared of the humans because they enjoyed beating me up and hurting me, but these boys looked a lot like me and they weren't trying to hurt me. They're fixing my injury instead, no one has ever done anything like this for me before.

Paps pets my head gently. I can't help but let out a few low purrs as my tail wags, it felt so nice.

I then glanced towards Sans, he's putting a tough, bright colored cloth around my already bandaged arm. Confused, I studied this as he finally finished...looking over his work I noticed two thing.

One, it's hard to move my arm, wrist and my fingers & two I won't be able to walk or run as fast as I normally do on four legs. I'll have to walk on my find legs. Like they do.

Grrrrreaaaaaat 🙄😑

Paps then rubs my head between my ears again, with a big smile, "Your name is Ruby, yes?" He asks, gently.

I nodded quietly. Paps smiled brightly, "Well greetings Ruby. I am the great Papyrus! It's very nice to meet you!" He says.

Sans smiled warmly.

I'm not sure how to react, but I can't help but give him a half smile. Paps expression tells me I need to work on my smile again.

I don't normally smile. So it's bound to suck.

Sans snorts slightly finding it funny. I couldn't help but scoff at him slightly, "Yeah yeah, it's a crappy smile..." I said.

"HEY LANGUAGE RUBY!" Papyrus says with his loud voice, which makes me flinch. "OKAY OKAY!! Geez..." I exclaimed.

*What have I gotten myself into.* I thought to myself with a sigh as Papyrus stood up.

I watched him carefully as Sans sat there beside me.

~Sans~
My bro stood up and went to the kitchen, probably to get her some food. I couldn't help but smile at this. Ruby seems to be cautiously watching him as he left the room.

She sighed loudly as she then looked at the cast I put on her arm. She wiggled her fingers softly before grumbling as she figured out how restricted her movement is.

"Don't worry, you'll be able ta take it off when it's healed." I said, trying to reassure her. She glanced at me looking unimpressed.

I couldn't help but snort at how cute she is, "Yer cute~" I blurted. I instantly felt flustered having just said that out loud.

She blinked at this, seeming confused, "Cute? What's that mean??" She growled in frustration.

*She doesn't know what cute means??* I thought before chuckling softly, she then got in my face, looking annoyed, "Would ya tell me already?!" She growled.

I chuckled lightly, "Alright alright, it means I like how ya look, or yer expression or what yer doin'...If ya get what I mean." I explained while my cheeks heated up.

She hums softly before sitting on my lap, which made me flinch as she stared at me, "So...then to use this word. I'd say...yer blue cheeks are cute?" She asked.

I felt my whole skull start to heat up at her question. Her tail wags when she saw she got it right.

She really is too cute.

"Ruby! Sans! I've made food for all of us!" Papy says happily, before looking at us with fascination. "What are you two doing??" He asks curiously.

"NOTHIN'!!" I shouted, my voice breaking in the process as I set Ruby down beside me, pouted in embarrassment.

Ruby doesn't seem to understand how our position looked, neither did Papy, thank Asgore's beard.

Ruby then glanced at the food before leaning forward, just using her mouth to eat it. Papy pouts as she makes a mess all over her face.

"RUBY...You're supposed to use a fork to eat it. You're all messy now." He says as he cleans her mouth with a cloth. She whines at this in embarrassment, "B-but I don't know how ta use a fork..." she says.

Papy sighed before using a fork, "Here, I'll help you since you're recovering. I'll feed you." He says as he held the Spaghetti up to her mouth with a fork.

She looks flustered by this, then sighs as she eats from the fork.

*This makes me think of when I used to feed Papy when he was a little baby bones ^^* I thought, grinning happily at the thought.

I'm glad I met Ruby today.
