The only thing Sans really had to do to 'get ready' was put on a pair of sneakers instead of slippers and tuck the laces in his socks, something he could do in less than a minute but he decided to wait awhile before coming back out. He needed to actually take a second to think about everything before making another stupid decision that might get them evicted.

Crevan was odd, no questioning that, but was it a bad thing? Not really. Was he probably being a big paranoid? Yes. Was what just happened in the kitchen not his best decision? Probably. Was the whole 'out in the middle of the night right after it had been raining' thing sort of suspicions? A little bit.

Sans stood up and walked towards the door, he didn't want to spend too long upstairs, he knew that Papyrus was already waiting on the front porch for the everyone else. Letting out a big sigh Sans walked out into the hallway.

He started towards the stairs but paused as he passed Crevan bedroom door. Inside he could hear the repetitive rubber squeak of rain boots going back and forth. Being a bit nosey Sans leaned a bit closer just in time to hear the squeaks coming towards the door.

Panicking, Sans took a step back, accidentally stepping on the shoe laces he always tucked into his socks.

Crevan opened the door.

"Oh, ah, hey Crevan " Sans quickly tried to stand back up but managed to trip on his shoe laces once again. "I-I ah, was just walking by, ah…"

"Are you alright?" Crevan stooped down in front of Sans.

A blue tint brushed across San's cheeks, he couldn't think of a time he had been more embarrassed. "Nah, I mean not no to being fine but like no to being not fine, ya' know?" Sans kicked himself mentally, all he wanted to do was teleport back to his room and disappear for the next thousand years.

Crevan snickered and held out her hand, "Well, do you need some help up?"

"Oh-ah," Sans hesitated for a moment before taking her hand, "Thanks."

Crevan pulled Sans to his feet and let go of his hand, "It's cool."

Sans watched as Crevan pulled her hand from his, it was really warm. The only other time he had touched a human was when he shook hands with Frisk, but their hand had been so cold…

Sans shook his head and started towards the stairs, "we should, uh, get going. Papyrus is gonna get annoyed if we don't hurry up."

Crevan nodded an hurried to walk besides Sans as they headed downstairs. Sans couldn't help but be a little surprised at her demeanor…considering earlier. Not knowing exactly what to say or do as they walked next to each other Sans looked, again, towards the ungodly amount of pictures on the wall.

"So, um," Sans fumbled with his words trying to find a good conversation topic, "how…how long have you had this house?"

Crevan paused for a moment, "Not terribly long, I inherited it from my grandmother when she passed away…," Crevan view glided over the pictures, "but I'm pretty sure my family has owned this house and the surrounding land since forever pretty much…"

"I see…" Sans nodded as he opened the front door, he wasn't sure if he had hit a sensitive topic or not.


"SANS! Speed up, were almost there!" Papyrus encouraged impatiently as he waited for Sans to catch up.

Sans smiled and waved his hand, "I'm still reeling from those stairs, bro."

"PUNS DON'T MAKE PROGRESS!," Papyrus stamped his foot

The lake that Crevan was taking them too apparently required a bit of hiking to get to, Sans was not prepared for that.

"It's right around this bend, we're pretty much there I promise" Crevan reassured, she could see he was pretty exhausted.

Papyrus was almost vibrating with excitement as the group approached the lake and Crevan set down the supplies she had been holding, "This is usually a pretty good spot."

Papyrus sprinted to the water's edge, almost falling in as he quickly leaned over to look in. " Crevan we need smaller poles the fish are so…tiny," you could hear a small twinge of disappointment in his voice.

Crevan giggled, "those are just tadpoles and minnows, the big fish are further out."

"Oh!" Papyrus jumped up "I should get started immediately then!"

Sans took a seat on a large rock near the edge, he knew he was a little out of shape but jeez. He watch Crevan help Papyrus get set up, it didn't take long considering she had gone over everything during the drive. By the time he got the bait on the hook Papyrus was so ready to start that he almost threw the rod into the water trying to cast.

"When I capture my fish what shall I do with them?" Papyrus asked, not taking his eyes off the bobber.

"Take a photo of course!" Crevan stated, "and then probably let them go…but we're defiantly going to take a photo first."

"Yes, of course! Great idea Crevan" Papyrus agreed.

Sans smiled, he liked watching Papyrus have friend. Laying back he stretched, it wasn't the most comfortable spot but considering some of the places he's taken naps in before it wasn't too bad.

Crevan leaned over into Sans' view, "Not gonna fish?"

"Oh, a-ah" Sans could feel himself starting to blush, "I mean I could give it a try, I'm not sure if I'll be very…"

Crevan laughed, "don't worry about it" she took a seat next to the rock, "fishing isn't everybody's thing."

Sans sat up, he didn't know what to say next. Talking to humans was so hard when really all the shared conversation topics you had summed up to just a couple months of awkward human-monster relations.

"SANS! CREVAN! I GOT ONE!" Sans jumped and looked to his left. Papyrus was cradling a fish about the size of a small human child, it was wriggling around furiously trying to get out of his grasp.

Sans turned to Crevan "Do you see the size of th-" he froze. She wasn't there. He quickly whipped his head back around, Crevan was bouncing with excitement right next to Papyrus. Sans clenched his fists.
