Reaper leaned on a branch while hidden in a tree. His cloak was bubbling with hearts, his face once dark and grim now bright with a blue glow in the cheeks and a goofy smile. His eyes twinkle as he watches the source of this happiness wander around the land. He sighs and quietly mumbles Geno's name. Little did Geno know how hard this god of death fell for him.

But Gaster certainly did.

"My, my, I haven't seen you get like that as far as I can remember! Did Cupid stop by without me knowing and hit you with an arrow?"Gaster says

Reaper was at first surprised that his father found him, but quickly got over it and focused on what he said. His face burned up more. He certainly didn't want his perfectionist father to learn about his feelings. Or who they're toward.

"No! And shut up! I don't know what you're talking about with getting a certain way! Shouldn't you be balancing weights or something?"He snaps

"But I always put family before work. And you have been acting different lately, as if you always have your head in the clouds. Plus your blushing face and the fact that your cloak was bubbling with hearts is very telling. Come on, Sans. You suck at keeping secrets. Which goddess did you meet out in that multiverse that caught that guarded soul of yours?"Gaster says

He sighs, knowing his father was right.

"It's......not a goddess I have fallen for."He says

"So you admit it! Awww, my son is in love! Who would've thought!"His father cries out in laughter

"SHUT UP! It's a natural thing! Now keep your voice low! I don't want Geno down there to hear!"He snaps

"Oh he can't hear us, loverboy!"Gaster says teasingly

"Oh he can't hear us, loverboy!"Gaster says teasingly

Oh how wrong Gaster was. Their argument got quite loud and Geno took notice. He could hear them, but only bits and pieces that only left him in confusion on what the heck he might be hearing or the location.

"Goddess love natural voice to hear? That doesn't make any sense...."Geno thought

"Well if it's not a goddess, what god did you meet?"Gaster asks

"It's...not a god either."He says

"A mortal? You've got to be kidding me. Is that why you're behind on work? Cause you don't want to kill them? You do realize that goes against your very job right? Your very purpose of being a god?"Gaster says, his tone turning more serious and strict with strong hints of disappointment

"Oh yeah, cause I'm just the janitor for the rest of the gods is such a special and great job. They break rules without punishment and yet when I try to bend them for the same happiness as them, I'm the bad guy! Hah! How ironic. The keeper of balance not keeping balance with everyone and choosing favorites, huh? Besides, it doesn't matter if it's my job. These are my feelings and you can't change them. You can't change anything about this. And you certainly can't force me to kill him. I couldn't even if I tried."He snaps
