"A pIcNiC?"
Error asked, his head slightly tilted to a side indicated his curiosity which make Swap internal squeezed by Error cuteness
"Yeah! A picnic. Me and Dream just found a beautiful AU with a ton of amazing views and there's this spot that has a huge cherry blossom tree, isn't it just absolutely beautiful? "
Swap answered, handing Error his phone it has a picture of a view with pretty blue sky, with grass, and in the middle is a big cherry blossom tree. Error looking at it with amazed, it is a pretty view. But he was not thrilled about it. He doesn't fond of the brightness of the view maybe
"sO... WhAt aBoUt It?.. "
"Well as I was saying before, me and Dream decided to have a picnic in it, under this cherry blossom tree right here. Do you wanna go with us ? "
Error thought for a moment, he looking up then he looks back at the picture. Though he doesn't feel like going that much but... He was free anyways... And honestly, he doesn't know what a picnic is so he wants to know...
"yEaH, sUrE. wHy NoT? I nEvEr hAvE a PiCnIc bEfOrE "
"Oh really?! fantastic!!!! Mwehehe!! It would be so much fun!! Does next week sound good to you? " Error didn't hesitate he nodded at Swap arrangements, Swap jumps in happiness, this is kind of a secret thing but he like Error more than a friend for a long time. This would be a perfect opportunity to get more closer to him.
"Oh, Yesss!!! Mwehehe!! Finally, you agree to hang out with us. Just thinking about when we get there, all of us together, we will have food, enjoy the beautiful sunshine view and cherry blossom petals falling under the tree. " Swap mindlessly talking to himself, even though they just talk about that topic but he just couldn't wait, it's not every day Error wants to do something like this. And Error sitting beside him, his hand still focus on sewing a random sans puppet, he secretly smiling by hearing Swap voiced talking about how excited he is and how that picnic would come... Then a sentence caught his attention...
"All four of us and... "
"wAiT... FoUr oF uS? " Error cuts Swap line, he grimaced at what Swap just said, probably the thing that Error expected that actually happens...
"Yeah? Me, you, Dream and Ink"
"I CaNcEllEd. eItHeR jUsT yOu, mE aNd DrEaM oR yOu ThReE gO tOgEtHeR. "
"Wait?!? Whyyyyyyy???? I thought you agree to that???? And why wouldn't you want Ink to go too???????? " Swap whined, though he knew that Error doesn't like Ink at all. Hell, he would want to "having a picnic" with Ink, but Swap did wants Error and his friends to be more like buddy-buddy with each other..... But that seems like that wasn't what Error will agree on...
"uGhhhHhH... YeAh? I dId? BuT I ThoUgHt iT's jUsT mE, dReaM anD yOu, bLuE... lIkE OnLy ThReE Of uS YoU KnOw... I mEaN, iNk wIlL pRobAbLy rUiNeD aT lIkE tHrEe sEcoNdS wHeN wE jUsT StArTeD!! HmP! " Error huffed as he crossed his arms together. The thought of Ink eating the same meal with him, it makes him want to gag and Ink will probably puke ink in the food too... Error squeezed the little poor puppet he still sew on in his hands tightly as if he wants its eyes to pop out
"Well..... Ink is one of my best friends after all!! And if we left Ink out he will get really lonely and upset... " Yeah, he will get really upset because he and Dream have chances to get close to Error while he didn't... Swap knows well that all three of them do have a crush on Error.
"MuCh LikE hE cOulD...." Error rolled his eyes at the imagined of Ink 'upsetting' will look like. Even if he did drink his drugs that help him 'feels' upset it does seem way too out of character.
"Alright sure! But it would be really mean to not invite him as well!! And the more the merrier right? And besides this chance is not a lot you know. We all have things to take care of every day so we rarely go anywhere together, so I really want there's someday we would hang out, all of us... " Swap carefully explain to Error why he wants all of them to go. But his last mumbling may have proved that his thought says otherwise "Though I really wish it would just be you and me.. "
"wHaT dId yOu sAiD? "
"Oh!! No!! Nothing at all!! Mweh.. hehe... " Swap chuckled awkwardly, he almost fucked himself up...
Error raised his 'brows' suspiciously, he still hate that shit of a Cephalopod but looking back at Swap's puppy eyes. He just couldn't say no "AlrIgHt fInE. I wIlL Go wItH yOu gUyS ThEn, bUt dOnT bLaMe mE iF oNe oF yOuR 'fRieNd' aCcIdEnTaLlY kIlLeD bY mE" Error gave up, his ego gets defeated, honestly he somehow felt being 'forced' in a way too but it's okay. Swap being happy and that's great. Error doesn't want to admit it but he like Swap being positive self... And he somehow felt like he spoiling a tween too.
Swap peeking at Error focused back to whatever sans version of a puppet he was sewing. Seriously he just can't believe, can't believe that he has such a great opportunity to get close to his crush. Fate is probably on his side today.
A week later...
Time passed, it was finally the day. Swap happily filled the food into a classic big straw basket that has been lining with a checkered fabric "Tacos, sandwiches, soda... All right, everything packed!! Mwehehe!! Everyone will be blown away by my magnificent cooking skill!! " Swap giggling to himself. He just so excited, he wonders what will Error react to have his first picnic experience, he probably will be super adorable. Swap almost drooling all over the place just imagined it.
*KNOCK KNOCK*
The knocking sound from his door woke Swap up from his imagination, Swap quickly run to open the door for the person that stand behind it. And there they are his friend of a guardian, Dream stood at the front of the door and smile at him he was holding a small basket that has golden flowers pattern decorate on it.
"Dream!! You're here, I was waiting for you!!!! " Swap said "Oh? Have I been late? I'm sorry" Dream worriedly explained himself, he worried that maybe his prep was way too long that he accidentally made his friend waiting for him.
"No!! Not at all!! You're just right on time. Let's go!! " Swap chuckling stated. They have to go together first because Swap can't teleport through AUs like Dream, Ink and Error did. Second, because there are a few chances that Ink might forget and go late so they should go together than going along with also Ink.
Just as they arrived, Error was already there. Waiting for them under the huge cherry blossom tree. Swap run-up to Error holding his basket "Hi Error!! Have you been waiting long? " Error just shrugged at Swap question "nO, jUsT gOt hErE. So tHeRE oNlY tWo oF Us? " Error asked, his gaze shift towards Dream which make him a bit surprised, Dream quickly turn away to hide his blush. He doesn't ready to make eye contact with Error maybe.
"Ah yeah, Ink probably late again. We should prepare our picnic first " Swap says about Ink being late like it is a totally normal thing. Well it happens way too common now and both Swap and Dream aren't bothered to wondering about that anymore, they should starting first without him already, Swap put down his basket, take out the big Gingham fabric then he spread the fabric out evenly so they could sit on it. Error holding Swap basket standing on the side, he takes note of how they preparing what to do before just sits down and eat. He learned new things after the fabric has been placed Error took a sit just under and near the tree the most, Swap quickly take the seat beside Error and Dream also do the same, looks like if Ink here he just has the seat that opposite to Error. Speak of the devil, the fake artist appears from his ink shit out of nowhere.
"Hey, guys!! Sorry for being late, I accidentally wrote note to our picnic with a washable marker so I had a hard time remember it, haha am I missing something? " Ink laughed as he look around, seem like they haven't started eating anything yet "We just getting all the necessary stuff out. You're just in time for the food!!! Come on, sit!! " Swap gestures Ink to the seat opposite to Error, which is also the only seat that is still vacant.
"Huh? You two has some good spot there! " Ink jokingly said. He notices that they awkwardly sitting together and he just sit on the opposite side, and no one sitting beside him either basically, they separate Ink out "Of course we not!! We just accidentally sitting here because we want to sit as a circle right? " yeah, a circle where 3/4 of it sit close to each other and the other is being noticeably separate away from the others. Well, at least Ink could look at Error easier at this spot.
Dream starts taking out some wooden spoon and fork with four plates made from the same wood material as the utensils. He also takes a few ceramic box-shaped bento and Swap takes out his signature dish. Tacos. And some other food that Error is already familiar with like the sandwiches, pizzas,.etc and there's Ink just casually make food out of his brush because he can.
"YoU dOnT bRiNg aNyThInG? " Error looks at the 'food' that Ink makes out of his 'paint' and 'brushes' with disgust, he seriously swears that he will never touch those even if he's in desperate hunger which he isn't capable of. "Welllllllll... I kinda forgot to bring any but just make them like this is more easier!! And you didn't bring anything too!! " Ink tease "HaH!!! To yOuR sQuId oF A BrAiN iM-Of cOuRsE hAvE tO bRiNg fOoD tOo!! " Error seeking for something in his jacket then throw them in front of Ink. Ink has to use all of his force to try not to laugh at what Error brought or else his neck might get snap out of his spine. The 'food' that Error 'brings' is some chocolate bars, there's a big amount of wrapper that already been open with half-eaten chocolates in it and there are tiny pieces of M&M being crushed all over the place, Error should be lucky because there are no other living things in the anti void or else his jacket would been possess by our friendly bugs. Though Error said he brings food it is more likely he just randomly takes out his snack statch that he put there just in case.
"Pfft-"
"So yOu hAvE cHosEn dEaTh-"
"ALL RIGHT!! ALL RIGHT!! ERROR!! TIME OUT!! WE COME HERE TO HAVE FUN NOT WAR RIGHT?? MWEHEHEHE!!!!! "
Swap jumping between Error who is about snapping Ink neck at any second and Dream just sighs quietly take out other utensils, he seriously so done with Ink asshole attitude...
All the unnecessary messy things happen aside, finally they can settle down and ready to start. Winds begin to slowly blow through the air and the grassy field waving like they're dancing by the wind flows. The refreshing atmosphere like this can make everyone felt comforting... And for some certain monster who somehow can't enjoy well with the view...
'Jeez, even with this piece of fabric on I still felt itchy from the grass... Am I being way too sensitive...? '
Error uses one of his hands to cover from the bright sunlight 'Ugh... I hate bright places like this...I shouldn't have come here from the start... I'm such an idiot.. ' He immediately regrets his decision already, it's not that he hates it but just eating and chatting like this. He could still do this daily basis without all the fancy prep or the time arrangement. He stared at Swap and Ink have a conversation about something and laughing, he didn't want to join them anyway. Basically, Error just munching on some foods aside from the one Ink 'makes'...
"Error..? " Dream, who sitting beside Error the whole time and doesn't join in with Ink and Swap too he seems to notice Error sudden wave of negative aura, it must be very obvious because everything going on until how and the AU itself is a positive AU. Dream slightly taps on his chin gestures something. Error just stared at him weirdly then completely tried to ignore Dream, he doesn't understand what Dream tried to say at all until he felt a sudden touch on the left side chin. It's a soft gentle touch, not the touch that you normally do when you tried to caught someone's attention it's more like...
"Alright, all off! " Error suddenly realized turn back his attention at Dream held a handkerchief. "I tried to say that you got some sauce on your chin, but you didn't understand that so I just... Error?!?? Your face heated up?? Are you sick??? " when Dream looks up at Error after he put back his handkerchief in his pocket, Error is basically almost at the point of crashing. His face is completely covered in his dark blue blushes. "jUsT... DoNt dO tHaT aGaiN... " Error turn away just want to not make eye contact with Dream. Right at when he turns around Error gaze at the slowly each by each petals falling from the tree, the sight is so beautiful that he barely could keep his eyes off it. Dream also turn around to Error attention, he awes at the sight but he like how Error just mouth drop at it to Dream, he has seen this before but to Error this is just so special he has never seen a tree that has flower falling petals so beautifully like that before.
While Error still gazes at the scene, Dream notices a petal laying on Error's head. He reaches his hand to take it off but when he almost reaches for it he suddenly stops, instead Dream taps slightly on Error's shoulder which caught his attention back. "wHaT? " Error asked, his face frowned of being interrupted "There's a petal on your head" Dream softly said, Error reach out to take the petal off. He looks at it more carefully, this tree has an odd petal shape he has never seen this before "That's cherry blossom petal and this is a cherry blossom tree, some AUs call it Sakura no Hana or Sakura for short " Dream slowly explained to Error and he also intentionally move closer to Error more without being suspicious. "I nEvEr sEe ThIs tYpE oF tReE bEfOrE... Is iT nOt uNcOmMoN iN tHe MulTivErSe? " Error softly rubs aside from the petal, it soft, feathery, and pretty. Error liked it "Well, I heard that in the human world this type of tree is located specifically in somewhere in the human world. And it only grows in spring too, its beauty is widely known across the human world. So I guess it is uncommon in our Multiverse cause not every creator will create an AU that has this type of tree, it is not the type to grown widely in the human world too"
"Is ThAt sO.....? " Error quietly asked while still hold the little petal. Such a shame that he doesn't know about this beautiful scenery sooner, though he knows he might not visit often because god this place is hot because of the damn sun but... "UhHhH... HeY? " He turns to Dream who still staring at him and they accidentally make eye contact. Both of them flustering and turn away and that makes the atmosphere more awkward somehow.....
They stay silent for a moment then Dream decided to speak up "Well... What do you want to say anyway...? " Dream flustered with his hands intertwined each other, "wElL... NoThInG sPeCiAL... I jUsT tHiNk, iF wE cOuLd... MaYbE wE cAn gO pIcNiC tOgEtHeR AgaIn?.. " A sudden petals wave falling off the tree, winds passing by bring the fresh air in making the scenery quite romantic, Dream turn around his eyes suddenly met Error's. They made eye contact without awareness, Dream face slightly dusted with a faint yellow blush as he looks into Error's eyes in awe. Error is like drugs, the more you are into him the more you like him somehow he is just way too addictive, his appearance is scary at first glance but unique in a way. The blue lines going down his cheek pop out from his beautiful dark black bones, his eyes are strange yet the not-so-well mixed color makes it looks truly amazing. Their face begins to slowly move towards each other...
Suddenly their someone hands grabbed their shoulders and drag them away from each other makes them both shock for a second, Dream surprisingly looks up and it's Ink with his iconic fake smile he always does when he overuses his drugs, For a moment there Dream swears he just saw Ink has a red cross mark in his eye? Maybe he just has an illusion... "Of course we will have a picnic again Error!!!! If you agree to go again!!!!! " Ink suddenly turns to Error, directly answered the questions that Error just asked a few moments ago. Error frowned at Ink's words he doesn't like how Ink intentionally touching him without asking like that, he rubs off Ink's hand away from him. "Ah!! Yes!! We will always welcome you to go on a picnic with us Error!! So you don't need to ask like that!!! " Dream also answered back to Error with a bright smile though he also feels pretty disappointed because at first he just thinks that that question was just asking him to go with Error alone together and a side of him silently judging for being way too careless and almost embarrassed himself by accidentally kissing the glitchy skeleton.
"tCh... I'm nOt aSkInG yOu!! YoU fReAkInG sQuiD!! " Error annoyingly complained at Ink, if they did go for a picnic again he would never let this soulless artist go with them next time. Respond to Error, Ink just laughed because he an asshole and intentionally becomes the third wheel "Well, let's eat more you guys. There are still many foods here!! " Swap handling everyone something to eat, trying to change the subject. He obviously noticed what happen earlier and he also understands well enough what Ink just 'accidentally' did. The conversation will become pretty awkward if he didn't change the subject now. Thanks to him, everyone became more comfortable with each other than before.
After half an hour, everyone was full and the weather become hotter because it was around the afternoon. The petals are not falling as much as before too... All and all it was the time to start leaving now but.. "Aww, they sleeping already? How cute!! " Ink joked at Dream and Swap who just eat way too much and now they just peacefully sleep beside each other, Swap sleep on Dream's legs while Dream lays back to the tree.
'They look so adorable.. ' Error secretly staring at them, he not normally thought about this out loud but to him, Swap and Dream do adorable if we skip the fact that they are also abominations too "Erry? Am I not adorable too? " Ink suddenly moves close to Error he speaks in a squeaky girly voice that makes Error almost wants to puke "eWwW?!? WhAt?!? YoU'rE dIsGuStInG!! OnLy bRaInLeSs shIt wOuLd FiNd yOu aDoRaBle!!!! " Error shouted, pushed Ink away. Seriously why does he get physical contact so much today? Is creators from above want to get rid of his haphephobia faster by making him get used to it or what "But-but... The creators said im adorable!!! Broomy also said im adorable too, right? " Ink whined, holding his brush in his arm. Error literally eye-rolled at his words, isn't his 'creators' joke sound a bit too old now? "wHaTeVeR!! LeAvE mE fUcKinG aLonE!! I dOnT wAnT tO bE mAd aT yOu uNdEr tHiS frEaKiNg hOt sUnlIght!! " seriously have Ink just read his mind? How could he figure that he just thought Dream and Swap look adorable? He getting a chill to his spine thinking about that...
"Well if you're want to get cooler under this weather then. How about you going with me to this place? " Ink suggested which peaked Error interested "wHaT? Is tHeRe a lAkE hErE oR sOmEthIng? " Error hesitantly asked, not gonna lie he doesn't visit this AU yet so of course he didn't fully remember the map in this place even if he checked the code so Error got a scary feeling that Ink might take advantage and attack him or something... "Well just go with me!! You'll see!!!! It won't disappoint you!!! " Ink suddenly held Error hand and dragging him out of their picnic spot, he speed running while Error shouting from behind because of the physical touch "AaHHhHHhhhh!!!!! WaIT a MiNuTEs!!!!! LEt mE gO fIrSt yOu sQuiD InK bRaIn!!! FfUuUcKk!!!!!!!!!!" and Ink doesn't give an ass about that...
After a few minutes, Ink finally stopped at an unfamiliar place that was quite far from the spot that they have picnic Error huffing annoyingly and recoiled back his hand that was being grabbed unmercifully by Ink the entire time. Lucky for him, Error trying to be more comfortable with touches lately so he didn't get way too much trigger from that, Error looks up he trying to look closely at the scene because of his eyesight. There's a big dark red bridge hang over a river, on the riverside there's..... Even more weird kinds of flowers that he had never seen before. Error hesitated staring at it tried to figure out what kind of flowers it is 'It round... Alright... Some are blue and some are purple for some reason, the shape of the flowers is normal.. ' "They are Hydrangeas!! " Ink moves closer to Error, their cheekbone almost touching each other make Error surprisingly flustered and trying to swifts away from Ink slowly.
"a-Ah yEaH... WhAt aRe HyDrAn-wHaTeVEr iT Is AnYwAy? " Though Error interested in the flowers he more likely wants to avoid the artist that suspiciously kneeling right beside him more... Error certainly don't want to get crash again. "Oh!! I heard that they're ornament plants and in the human world they.......... " While talking, Ink silently tried to moves closer to Error and Error obviously notice it so he also swifts farther so they wouldn't accidentally touching. They just kept doing that til Error reach the dead end, he was in between the rim of the bridge and Ink, if he moves more there's only one way to escape which is to jump into the river but that highly won't happen. That shitty Ink might be uncertain of that but he will notice that he makes Error uncomfortable right?? Right??
"And also...... "
*SPLASH*
"Oh my Creators!!!!!!Uhhhh... Error... Heh, Ya okay?.. " well what does he expect from this soulless, brainless piece of shit anyway. Basically, Ink 'accidentally moves way too close to Error which they practically touching each other making Error surprised and glitches acts up makes his vision goes blind then he falls into the river. Making a big splash and Error almost thought he would drown even though the water is not that high.
"InKkKKkkKkkk...... " Error growled as he tried to moves toward to Ink, his clothes were all wet and water still dripping on his skull. Ink tried to back away as the atomic bomb was ready to explode right in front of him.
"..hEh...CaN I AsK YoU sOMeThiNg?....." Error said in a soft tone but it sound like he trying his best to hold his grudge down."Oh..then.go ahead?..." Ink drank his purple vial, he 'honestly' feels a little scared "YoU kNoWs I dOn'T likE tOuChInG rIgHt?..." Ink gulped, yes he did remember that it was already being written right on the front part of his scarf so he could look at it anytime and remember it."Of course, I did!! I wrote it here!! See?" Ink showed Error the part that he wrote, it says 'No touchy Error 0w0!! He's a baby' wait, did he really wrote this thing? "ThEn WhY dId YoU 'AcCiDenTaLlY' sHoVe Me iNtO tHiS RivEr? HmMm..?" Though Error kept pretty calm, Ink knows that he probably judging him inside."Well, I just thought that if we like to get close together is really fun and honestly, I did wish to see you fall into this river and embarrassed yourself.." "GO TO HELLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
In seconds, Error pull out his strings then he tied Ink in it and pulling Ink into the water. "HaH!!!!! SeRVe yOuR rAiNBoW AsS rIGhT YoU FuCkInG PiEcE Of SqUiD sHiT!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Ink gets up from the water, his hand grips tight red and yellow vials "Oh, It's on!" "HmP! BrInG iT oN" They glaring at each other sharply, Error takes advantage first he jumps towards Ink his hands grip tight to his strings, suddenly Ink splash water right at Error face making some water goes into Error eyesocket "GaAaAAHhHHhhHH!!!!!! YoU'rE cHeAtInG!!!!" Error glitches hard, he rubbing his eyesocket trying to make the water go out but his eye socket instantly fills up with the 'ERROR' so basically Error just can't see anything now. "Heh, I didn't expect you would take that, I thought you would easily dodge it" Error kept silent still rubbing his eye socket, his small body tremble slightly which make Ink startled "Eh...Error...Are you okay? I'm sorry.."
*Splash*
"HaH!!!!! YoU ReAlLy tHiNk I WoUlD CrIeD hUh? ShAmE On YoU, YoU aNomAlY sQuId!!!HAHA!!" Error laughed as he point at Ink's face who was just being splashed with water the same as Error did. Ink confused for a moment but right then he splashes some water straight in Error's teeth while he was still laughing "Hehe!!! Well, Error if you want to start a war I won't say no " Ink chuckled to his victory but it doesn't end there yet. Error splashes water as revenge right then and basically, it just goes on and on like that for half an hour till they finally stop because of their clothes are completely soak up and the sun starting to go down leaving a sunset which it's already late afternoon. They literally wasted too much time to just play in the water like kids.
"YoU aRe AbSoLuTeLy tHe WorST... "
"Great to hear that from you!! "
"IT'S NOT A FUCKING COMPLIMENT!!!!! "
Error barked at Ink, seriously if Ink had not started first Error could have gone home dry, he has to take his jacket and scarf off because it the most soak up on his outfit but Error sweater isn't any better either but at least he still has to wear it or else he had to left naked opposite to Error Ink is doing quite well. Though his outfits got more soak than Error did but with just his 'Broomie' he instantly created new clothes to wear. While Error tries to parching his jacket on a tree before he goes back, Error doesn't want to stay in an Anti void that being wet. But while Error was too busy minded about his jacket he forgot about a skeleton that had been staring at him the whole time. Ink mentally screamed, no not about the fact that Error broke his hands while trying to 'revenge' him for the already wet jacket and Ink is currently trying to 'fix' his hands but about Error is wearing his sweater. Now you may have thought an outcode skeleton wearing a sweater is boring, well change your mind because Error would wear a jacket outside his sweater or shirts depend on the days, so Error small figure with an oversize sweater is absolutely a blessing from the creator above!!!!!!
Error suddenly got a chill to the spine, he turn around to see Ink still staring at him without a problem. Seriously he hates soulless being they don't know how to be flustered, Error frowned but quickly turn back trying his best to ignore Ink because it not worth it trying to kill him... Yet."StOp iT... " Ink flinched but he still staring at Error without even blinking "Heh, stop what? Can you speak louder, your voice is all over the place I didn't understand a single thing!! " Ink said with a bright smile on his face, obviously he trying to tease Error and it always works even though Error already experienced it hundreds of times "SeRiOuSlY... StOp wItH tHe StArInG tHiNg, I DoN'T wAnT tO kIcK yOuR AsS... NoW... " If it weren't for the fact his clothes got wet, he would definitely end the suffering of the original Undertale AU by the fact they're millions of their alternatives "But I don't want toooooooooo~ You're pretty even from behind~" Okay that sound creepy, Error wants to punch the soul out of this fake artist though he doesn't have one. 'Is Dream and Blue awake yet anyway... They probably trying to find me, I hope they will soon" Error thought quickly changed its attention from Ink to Dream and Swap, it already way too late from what they have planned, either those two could go home around this time or searching hard to find them, he usually doesn't felt this but Error does feel a little guilt for leaving way too long like that.
'It's still way too wet, I don't want to bring this back to the void at all. The water will go all over the place..' Error got out of his guilt and trying to parch the jacket faster, it has gotten very late the sunset is getting darker. He doesn't want to spend his time destroying AUs to stay here, he certainly doesn't want to out fighting with just his sweater, hell it's not even dry up completely yet. This was all Ink's fault!! If he didn't try to move close to Error instead of staying right at his place he wouldn't get wet in the first place, if he doesn't jokingly splash water back at Error he wouldn't do the same if he... If he...
*Thump*
Error felt a surprise light thump on his back, he quickly notice a thick dark blue jacket on his shoulder and Ink standing just right behind him.
"AaAAAaaaaHhH... WaIt wHaT iS ThIs...? " Error shocked for a moment because of how close Ink is standing behind him but he turns into confused at the jacket that Ink place on him "A jacket, of course, you don't like fighting with just your wet sweater on right? But your jacket is so hard to do so I just made a random jacket with a similar material " Ink said, then he handing Error a paper bag with something in it "Take this!! You need to dry your clothes, even if you leave your jacket like this over the night it won't dry up. It is an automatic air dryer, you don't need to have electricity to use it, it is used by the battery. You can keep this or give it back to me anytime. And this paper bag is for the clothes, don't worry I already put in a plastic bag to put it in, it won't leak through the paper bag" Error held the bag in his hand, checking it a few times and Ink didn't lie it has all the thing here. He grips the bag tightly, he doesn't want to admit he appreciates it.
"THaNkS " Error mumbles, but it loud enough to Ink to hears it
"Eh? "
"NoThInG!!!!fOrGeT iT!!!!! NoW lEt gO HoMe. I tiReD oF bReAtHiNg ThE sAmE aiR wItH yOu!!!! " Error turn around, he grabs his jacket and forcefully shoved it into the plastic bag then he angrily walked away first. Ink still stood on the ground, he staring at Error figure that moving far away "WE DON'T NEED BREATH BY THE WAY!!!!!!! " Ink shouted at Error direction and it seems like he has heard it Error just moving faster until Ink couldn't see him bland sight anymore, Ink smirk grew this is his first time hearing Error said to him a more than just 'fuck off', Ink quickly takes out his permanent marker and wrote it around the middle-top of his scarf.
'Error said thanks to me at --/--/------ , he also flustered too. He so cute ♡(ӦｖӦ｡)' He will never forget this moment as long as the marker's ink doesn't fade away.
"There you are!!!!!!! "
"We have been worrying sick!!! Where are you??? Are you accidentally hurt somewhere"
Just as they come back to the picnic spot, Error has been getting all the attention from the other two while Ink is just being completely ignored. "WeLl, I mAdE sOmE mIsTaKeS bY TrUsTiNg sOmEoNe tOo mUcH aNd gEt mY oUfIt dAmAgEd bUt ThAt hAs bEeN sOlVeD nOw, iM aLl rIgHt! " Error answered them, and all of them clearly understood what part Error trying to be sarcastic at, Dream quickly glanced over to Ink who just looking at somewhere probably trying to refuse that he was innocent and did nothing wrong but Dream go back to Error and he could sense Error's positiveness, he sighs. Well, at least Error is alright and that is all he needed. "Well as long as no one gets hurt it's okay, now let's organized now everyone, it's really late!! " Swap suggested, and they started cleaning up all the food, wrappers that got left behind and everyone go back to their place.
Error open his portal and escort Swap right to his front door, he silently felt a little regret inside because he hasn't spent time with Swap yet even though he is the one who helps Error the most and the one who invite him too. Swap thanks him and just before he opened his door "Ah!! WaIt!! " Error shouted out, he close the portal behind him and step closer to the blue scarf skeleton in front of him "cAn wE... LiKe tAlK fOr a mOmEnT..!? " Swap eyes lighten up as Error words, he slightly flustered "Ah... Of course!!!! I can talk with you whenever you want!!!! Come in" Swap open his door, gesturing Error to come into his home it's rude to make a person stand outside your house and talk with you, right? "UhMm... No tHaNkS, I JuSt WaNt To hAvE a cHaT aNywAyS... " Error didn't have much energy to fight with Stretch today so he was hesitant with Swap's suggestion "All right then what do you wanna say? " Error silence for a moment, he turns away and mumbling loud enough for both of them to hear "WeLl... I... I'm vErY hApPy wItH... LiKe gOiNg PicNiC wItH yOu gUyS... " Error muttered, he doesn't want to sound way too happy with that "aNd tHaNkS fOr InViTe mE aNyWaYs.." but Error didn't lie, he quite enjoying himself minus the Ink part, Swap face immediately brightened up, actually he thought that Error would not enjoy as much as he is "Mwehehe!!!!! I'm really happy to hear that from you!!!!!!..." Swap continued "And if you don't mind...Can we like going again someday..?.. Just the two of us..?" Both Swap and Error flustered at the last part, but Error didn't think about this too deep so he quickly answer "Of CoUrSe I WiLl gO oN a PicNiC WitH yOu AgAiN!!" "R..Really?!?" Error chuckled cutely "AbSoLuTeLy!!" Suddenly, Swap comes close to Error and for seconds Error was embraced in Swap's arms, he hugs Error tightly and his soul is reacting fast through his ribs which Error could felt it. The snow in Snowdin is falling slowly from the sky and almost all the monsters are not outside leaving some lights on for the street, the atmosphere is soothing yet chilly but there are two monsters who didn't felt cold at all. They stay like that for a few minutes and Swap starts mumbling his feelings aloud without realized it "I'm really happy Error.. that you want to spend time with me... I thought that I didn't impress you enough for you to acknowledge me, as more than a friend... Error!! I'm!!-" Luckily for Swap, when he realizes that he accidentally confessed to Error, Error has already crashed...
"Mweh?!Well...That will be quite embarrassed if he heard that... Hehe... " Swap release his arms with a little disappointment and the bar fill up, Error snaps out of his crash he blushes as he remembers what did they just do and Swap felt the same, while they're still awkward between them Error decided to leave, he opens his portal and just as he jumped into it. Error turns around and looks at Swap "uHmM... ThAnKs AgAiN AnYwAyS... BlUe..... " and Error quickly disappeared through the portal leaving a flustering Swap stood dumbfounded in front of his doorstep.
*Ting*
Swap noticed a message come from Ink, Swap tried to forget what he just did and checking what Ink just sent him. His eyes widen at the message, his blushes grew and Swap secretly saves it, it is a picture of Error under the cherry blossom tree at some moment, his gaze directly at a falling petal that being blurred out leaving his gorgeous face in full view.
