Chapter 10- Honey's Day Part 2
(~Your POV + Small Time Skip~)
"Do you need help with anything else?" I ask politely. All three of us are sitting out on our picnic blanket. Blueberry is setting up for lunch. He shakes his head in response, organizing everything in the basket, "Don't worry, Miss Y/N! I got it."
I turn to Honey and can't help but smirk, "How are you feeling, Papyrus?" He's been completely silent and taking in the scenery since we got here. He's taking photos of all the trees and even the small pond, mumbling, "I'm okay." He stares off for a moment, saying, "This is-.. It's really nice."
Filled with joy, I tell him, "Yeah, I can imagine the scenery is a lot to take in. My family used to drive by here all the time when I was a kid. Glad that the city is still caring for it after all this time."
(~Honey's POV~)
"Really? I didn't know you had family, Miss Y/N!" Sans smiles, pulling the rest of the food out of the picnic basket. Y/N quietly turns away from my bro, hiding her face and muttering, "Well.. We all come from somewhere, right? Heh......" I stared at her saddening expression.
'All this time and I never even asked about family...'
"Wha-..." I stop myself. If I don't know anything, it's probably because she doesn't want to talk about it. I quickly shut my mouth and discard the subject, "Hey, let me get a picture of you two."
Y/N flinches and stares at me, embarrassed, "Why? I mean... I look terrible, a picture of Blue would be better instead." "Nope, I want both of the most important people to me in the same photo. Come on, N/N~ You can do it." I insisted, using one arm to gently nudge her over. Her cheeks turn red and she sheepishly hugs herself, "K, fine.."
"GET ALL OF MISS Y/N AND THE MAGNIFICENT SANS' GOOD ANGLES!!!" My brother cheers. He playfully jumps up and hugs his arms around Y/N's neck. This took her off guard for sure. Thankfully, it helped her to cheer up. Y/N couldn't stop giggling, "BLUE!" I took a few pictures with my phone.
'Perfect.'
I smile, "Alright bro, I got 'em." "That's great! Now give it to me!"
'I guess he wants to see them.'
I chuckle and hand my phone to him, "Alright, but don't delete any before I get to see them." Blueberry then grins at me before saying, "I don't need it for that, brother. Get close to Y/N! We need pictures of you too!"
'Wait a minute..'
Y/N smiles, "YEAH LAZYBONES! YOUR TURN!!!" She bursts into laughter whereas I pull my hood over my head in embarrassment. She scoots herself across the blanket and sits beside me with some space in between us, "ComE oN PaPyRuSsSs! I want a picture with you too! Don't you want memories of how much you had fun today?!"
"That won't be necessary." I mumble. Y/N sighs, "Fine! Blue, take the picture.." "Okay human! On the count of three!"
"One! Two! Three!"
Suddenly, my hood was pulled back. The flash of sunlight did blind me for a moment. When my eyes adjusted, I see Sans smiling wide with the phone pointed straight at me. As if that didn't shock me enough, I noticed Y/N moved from her spot and iS ReALLy FrEakINg CLoSe! In the last moment, she pressed her lips against my cheek.
My soul stopped beating completely. My mind and body just freeze. An orange glow blazes from my face that can compete in a brightness contest with the sun itself.
'WHAT, THE HECK?!!!'
The quick moment passed and Y/N pulls away, blushing a lot as well. "Oh mY gOD-" She bursts into laughter, getting to see my dumbfounded look. I slowly turn to her with another unexplainable expression, feeling ecstasy and shocked at the same time. She turns to Blueberry, "PLEASE teLL mE yOu GOt ThAt- SANS, OH MY GOD!!"
Y/N rolls to the ground, about to just laugh her lungs out. Sans is quite literally speechless. His jaw is open as he just STARES at her.
'That obviously wasn't part of the original plan.'
Watching him, I hold my hand to my mouth and start laughing too. I have one simple explanation, "Um, Bro? I think you killed Y/N on our first date."
(~Your POV~)
"Come on guys! We're almost at our next stop!" I shout, walking faster on the sidewalk. Both brothers are a long walk behind me.
'I hope they can catch up. Maybe I'm going too fast..'
After an eventful lunch at the park, I brought Stretch and Blueberry across the street. It's a line of several small cafes and colorful shops. I know they'll have fun and love to explore, but there's a stop on this strip that I want to make first.
Too busy with planning out my day and thoughts, I apparently forgot to watch where I was going. A busy man on the phone runs into me. As if I wasn't even there, he shoved me aside and just continued walking. I let out a small scream, losing my balance and falling forward. Out of nowhere, someone's strong grip grabbed my upper arm and pulled me up in one swoop. It's Honey.
'WhOa-'
He pulls me close to his side, worriedly asking, "Are you o-okay?" I nod quietly, "Yeah, thanks.." It took Blue a minute of running before he caught up to us, "ARE YOU ALRIGHT, MISS Y/N?!" I stand there, a little taken back by the situation.
'How'd Honey get here so fast? Like.. IMMEDIATELY?'
I didn't notice him get closer while I was walking? Does he run faster than his brother, with his legs being longer? Still, that was a long way to run, and in that short split second of time?
'Doesn't make sense..'
I glance at Papyrus. He looks in distress a bit. One of his pupils is a dull orange-colored ring while the other is white. Honey is huffing with one hand grabbing tightly at his chest.
'.... Is.. Is he okay?'
"Honey, do we need to go home? Are you in pain?" I ask. All the attention switched to him, especially from Sans. Blue looks very concerned, scared even, as he converses with his brother, "Papyrus, maybe we should-" "No, no, I'm good. Only need a second to catch my breath, heh. Isn't this our next stop, N/N?" Papyrus points to the side of us.
I turn to the right, seeing the glass doors of my favorite ice cream/frozen yogurt place. "Oh yeah! This is it!" I answer. The atmosphere between both brothers has changed completely. Blue's excitement is now replaced by anxiety and worry.
'It's okay, they'll cheer up once they try the endless amount of delicious snacks here!'
I excitedly went inside and up to the counter, waiting on them to follow me inside. Instead of them coming inside immediately, my hope vanished as I saw them lingering. They're definitely having a more private discussion.
Blue's talking to his brother with a very concerned look, gesturing back towards the way we came. Stretch stayed quiet, shaking his head and patting Blue's skull in an effort to comfort him. Sans then got more frustrated, and even more persistent, almost demanding as he pulled Papyrus's sleeve and stomped his feet on the pavement.
Honey sighed, said something, then came inside to meet me, "Sorry for the wait, Y/N. My bro just needs a minute to chill out." Blueberry's pupils shrunk in surprise. The glass door closed, and then Sans turned to me. I felt my heart sink into my stomach. Seeing that expression of betrayal and hurt on him, it broke my heart.
I step forward, "Blue-" He ignored me. Sans' eyes lost their color and the small skeleton rushed out of sight. I feel completely discouraged. Even though I care a lot for Stretch, I wanted Blueberry to be included too.
'Did I mess everything up...?'
"N/N?" Papyrus softly runs his hand through my hair to get my attention. I blush a little, but stay seriously focused as much as I can, "Are you sure Blue's okay? He just left.." "He what?" Honey turns to the entrance, looking for him. I watch him stare out and pace for a bit, definitely concerned for his younger and probably anxious brother.
After it was clear that Blueberry wasn't coming back, Honey turns back and hugs me, "Well, he's tired. I guess Sans needed to go home and relax a bit." I take a deep breath. I still feel off about it, so much that I lost my appetite.
'Well... I don't want to leave without getting Papyrus something at least..'
"This place is cute." Stretch continues, looking at all the ice cream flavors.
'Oh wait!'
I tug on his sleeve, "Go sit! I'll order something for you." "Oh? A surprise treat? Heh, alright. I'm paying for our next date though, which will be at a very fancy-" I playfully roll my eyes and interrupt, nudging him away, "JuSt Go!"
"Okay! Okay! I'm going sit." He goes over to one of the simple white tables. Small tables and booths are on the right side of the small shop. It only takes a few steps to get situated. They have a couple portraits of their bestselling frozen treats as decoration, which look so cool on the pastel-colored walls.
(Writer~San: *appears* .... :D ok bye- *vanish*)
I quickly order and pay for Pap's surprise, then go sit in the chair next to him as we wait for it to be made. Honey smirks, "What did you get?" "You'll see, be patient!" I giggle.
"So.. While we're sitting here, why don't you tell me why your nickname is Honey?" "I used to drink the stuff." He states, plain and simple.
'Why is he so casual? I'll never know.'
I put my hands on the table, heckin' bamboozled, "Hold on- First of all, what? Secondly, that's it?!" Papyrus winks at me, "Yep. What about you and your nickname?" I pause and look away, "Well, my family and friends just kinda called me that.. because.." I told him the reason behind it.
(Writer~San: This is up to you and your imagination! Could be a shortened version of your or your oc/persona's name that went with it on the spot, or could be a nickname because of some sweet/silly event that happened. We all know that it happens, lol.)
Papyrus has a big smirk on his face, listening to me getting more and more embarrassed. Sometimes I don't like to talk about myself, okay?! Feeling pressured to ask why he's so amused by this, I whine at him, "WhAt??? It'S nOt fUnNY!" "Heh, it's nothing! I like getting to know you, that's all." Papyrus points over my shoulder, "Your ice cream's waiting for you."
'Oh! Sweet!'
(Writer~San: *appears again* To those who caught that too and just cringed... I'm soRRy- *wheeze*)
I get up and grab the treat from the employee.
'He's going to love this!'
He is so suspicious of the smile I'm giving him and it's hilarious. I present it to him, placing the cup on the table and posing at several angles. He gazes at the treat, still confused, "What is this?"
"A sweet delicacy. You see, it starts off with a cup of cheesecake flavored frozen yogurt, a local handmade recipe. Next, it's topped with lightly toasted cheesecake crust crumbles and then drizzled with the finest honey~" "Wow, looks delicious, sounds amazing, the presentation and presenter are beautiful. I'm sold! You sure you don't work here?" Stretch jokes. I take a bow, giggling, "No Sir, but I definitely come here regularly to know each menu item down to the little details." "And you are right with the surprise recommendation because this is fantastic! Wow.." Honey eagerly takes more bites and even photos of his sweet treat.
"Here, try some." He starts clearly videoing me and holds the spoon out. I politely decline and try to hide my face, "No, no- That is your treat. This is your day. Enjoy it." He doesn't take no for an answer, grabbing my chair and pulling me closer to him, "No, this is our day. Try it."
I keep my mouth shut, turning away from him with a subtle smile. "N/N~ One bite!" He gets more persistent, turning my chair around and offering the spoonful of frozen yogurt. At the same time, he's also trying to get my reaction on video by inching his phone closer and closer. I have to stop myself from laughing so he can't put the spoon in my mouth. It's his! I don't want him to feed it all to me!
That's when I see Stretch look down and panic, "Oh heck! It's melting on me-" "HA! That's whAt yoU gEt- MMPH!" As I was claiming my victory, Stretch put the spoon in my mouth and winks, "Gotcha!~" I start laughing, blush probably spreading onto my cheeks already.
'STOP ENCOURAGING HIM-'
I'm probably smiling ear to ear. I fuss through some laughter, "Dang it!" Papyrus chuckles and finally puts his phone away, no doubt satisfied with what he managed to film. He then grabs some napkins and focuses on wiping the ice cream mess off his sleeves. He huffs with a smirk, then rolls his sleeves up, "Welp, guess I gotta wash this later."
After that little playful joke, we continued conversation as usual. Even though we spent most of our previous chats through text, it's crazy how we're completely comfortable with each other in person. It's as we've known each other for years.
However, in that extra time of focusing (Writer~San: maybe or maybe not observing how cute he is-), talking, and listening to him; I noticed something. I gently grab his arm and pull it towards me, "Papyrus, you're looking a little pale."
