No Chocolate - Chara X Frisk

Midnight Singing (43)

"Chara! I'm so tired... The skeleton brothers are so annoying but so amusing at the same time. I can't stand though the amounts of puzzles we had to solve, especially the shape ones which you messed up so many times! You're truly unbelievable, you know?"

"Listen, it wasn't like that! I was really put off by the way you complained the entire time about Papyrus's awful spaghetti, which no one forced you to eat! I don't get why you had the need to act so politely?"

"It's common courtesy, but whatever. At least we aren't wet anymore, but one of us is definitely catching a fever pretty soon."

"I hope you catch it first."

"Hey! I didn't say anything remotely similar to you."

"can't you two argue a little bit later?" Sans said.

"Ugh, sure." Frisk and I responded at the same time.

"don't forget that i'm the one doing you a favor."

"Yeah, and don't forget we didn't have to play along with your brother's annoying puzzles."

"if you were determined enough, you would've done it." His permanent smile was always getting on my nerves.

"Whatever you say."

"Why are all skeletons bald here?" Frisk asked in a perfect moment.

"I don't know, skeletons are always bald, even in our world." I responded.

"Huh, you have a point."

"this is the guy, you two." We finally stopped after walking for a long time from Sans and Papyrus's house. Since I know the danger of Undyne that's ahead of us, and I don't really want to go through that again, I asked Sans if there was any shortcut or other way that we could go through to avoid facing her.

I thought Sans would open one of his portals or do the weird thing to teleport us, but instead, he redirected us to the River Man, who usually isn't there at this point in time, but it looks like they somehow know each other well enough that he arranged a trip from Snowdin to Hotlands just for us.

That was the favor I personally requested since we had to entertain all of Papyrus's ideas so we don't hurt his feelings or something.

And that exchange of favors seems to work with Sans.

So why not take the opportunity when we can?

I'll take Frisk on a perfect date that no one will be able to interrupt!

It'll be like out of a movie or a romance novel.

So beautiful.

"Chara? Come on, come on the boat." Frisk was already on the boat while I was lost in my thoughts.

"bye kid, don't come back." Sans told me without Frisk hearing.

"What?" I was shocked since his eyes had disappeared at that moment.

"just playing witcha. see you later." His bright white pupils came back, and I jumped on the boat with Frisk, and the River Man started rowing.

"Tra la la. The waters are wild today. That's bad luck..."

"Why are you singing?" Frisk asked curiously.

"That's his way of talking, you'll get used to it."

"I still don't get how you know everything down here, but whatever you say."

"Be thankful! We're going to have a lot of fun, you know."

"A lot of fun, with you? You really are interesting, Chara."

"Just trust me, you'll enjoy everything down here." I reassured her.

"I'll maybe trust you, but you'll have to prove me right though."

"I'll exceed your expectations."

"If you say so, may I sit though? Is it safe to sit here, River Man? What even is your name?" 

Typical Frisk.

"Tra la la. What's my name?... It doesn't really matter..."

"Okay, but may I sit?" Frisk was being persistent.

"Yes, Frisk. Sit freely, I'll sit with you actually. Papyrus made me so tired." I then sat down, and she quickly enough followed my lead.

The boat was pretty small, but we curled up our legs so they don't get wet by falling into the water. Our driver was rather silent, but it was better that way anyways since Frisk and I got to enjoy such a beautiful moment together, next to each other, like in the old times. It was truly reminiscent of what I've been through with her - not to mention all the times I've spent in her body instead of using my own.

When I think about those memories, it gets even more nostalgic.

But those times have passed now, and I decided to settle for a much happier life instead of running like a stray dog, massacring everything and everyone.

It's stupid and, in reality, doesn't have a point.

It was fun for a couple of times, but now, I'm just sick of it.

I want a happy and bright future with my loved one - Frisk.

We can even have children together one day.

Even though we're both girls, if there's a will, there's a way!

I'm just so excited, just thinking about all those sorts of stuff. I've been so busy with everything that I forgot to imagine things or just blankly think about my future.

"Uhm, Chara. You're creeping me out. Why are you smiling at the river?" Frisk pointed out!

How embarrassing, oh my god.

"I wasn't smiling! You got it all wrong."

"You're so red? Are you sure you don't have a fever?" Frisk asked me worryingly and then put a hand to my forehead to check my temperature, and I can only guess I became even more red after that.

I don't remember the last time she touched me like this!

"You're definitely sick, Chara." She seemed disappointed.

"No, I'm not!"

"Maybe you're right, you're sick, but in the head! You pervert." She quickly turned away from me and just stared at the river with a mean expression on her face.

"What's that supposed to mean!"

"Figure it on your own."

"You're driving me insane, Frisk!" I started shouting at this point.

"So you're admitting you're in love with me?" This girl-

"What? I never said that!"

"Tra la la, Frisk has a good point." The River Man said?!

"Not you too, leave me alone everyone!"
