Pride Cometh Before The Fall. (Said The Bigot As They Fell Off A Cliff)

Chapter 5: Nonbinary MK & OC

Chapter Text

Muffet kisses you on the forehead before you can rush out the door to catch the bus. "Be good, Chang, ahuhu!" She calls after you as you wave back to her while running for the bus. 

School is boring, as usual. Grillby had a talk with you about your failing grades, but it's not your fault that school is just so easy that you can't find the motivation to make an effort and would rather date a cute girl. 

So you text your online pal instead. They say their school is boring too, and, -Yo, wouldn't it be better if we could just like hang out instead and explore the old abandoned mine!!!- 

You've been sending them pictures of the abandoned mine whenever you have free time to explore it. It might be fun to explore it with someone, though. -Yeah, sure, where do you wanna meet, and how will I know it's you??- 

-YOOOOOO!! Let's have a secret code!! My grunkle has this weird secret code for time travellers! we should totally have one too!!- 

You hide a smile and your phone as the teacher walks past. Then take it out discreetly and reply, -Flowers suck.-

-Yoooooo!!! Flowey would get so mad at us!!-

-It's perfect!!!! Lemme just ask my dads if I can go!!- 

You put away your phone to take the quiz that the teacher hands out and later in the day, you take it out again to find that the dads are not going to permit MK to go to an abandoned mine with someone they met on the internet. Big surprise. -Just sneak off. We'll do it at night.- You tell them.

-I dunno. I don't wanna get in trouble.-

-What, are your dads abusive??- You fire back. 

-No! They're really great! I just don't want them disappointed in me.-

-If you were really my friend, you'd sneak off with me.- You tell them snidely. 

-Yo, don't say things like that.- They reply. -Stop doing that.- You can tell that they're a bit mad at you. 

-Sorry.- You tell them. -But if you don't come, I'm going anyway, and I'm gonna smooch a girl in one of the caverns down there.- Now the question is, which girl? There's at least two in freshman class who like you. 

-Fine, I'll be there.- MK says and you whoop. The teacher looks up from his book sharply and you realize you just did that out loud in the middle of language class. But the rest of the day, even through detention, your heart is light, and you completely forget to ask any cute girls to come with.
