Work Text:
Noelle laid on her bed.
The ceiling was dark.
The clock was ticking.
The air was iron.
She felt a lot, and nothing at all.
It didn’t happen. It didn’t snow.
Everything was just a bad dream.
She would wake up soon.
She would wake up on the couch of the Dreemurr’s household.
Dess and Asriel would be in the kitchen, talking together.
Toriel would be on “Chairiel”, reading a book on snails.
Asgore would be by the stove, preparing snacks.
Kris would be there.
They’d be by her side.
Silently watching her wake up.
Head tilting, as if to examine her.
Kris would be there.
They would always be there.
In front of her eyes and in the back of her mind.
They would be there.
Kris was there.
*You greeted Noelle.
(Why are they here?)
*You tell Noelle it’s because you missed her.
Noelle turned her head left, and strained a smile.
“I missed you too, Kris.”
“Tomorrow felt like it wouldn’t arrive.”
“Seems like I don’t need tomorrow."
Noelle got up, and stood before Kris.
“Nothing comforts me more.”
“Other than seeing you here.”
“Throughout everything, you still cared…”
*You tell Noelle she will always be someone very special to you.
“Thank you.”
“Hard as it may be to believe…”
“Everyday, I never stopped caring.”
“Maybe we can try…”
Noelle lunged forward, and hugged Kris.
You lost 1 HP.
*You told Noelle you love her.
*
*
*
*You told Kris you love them back.
