Healing
After a few months the two had recovered from their injuries. Chara was still in a cast but he could get around with his crutches. Chara was also having therapy sessions every now and then. After the whole fight and abuse Chara definitely needed mental recovery. Chara was still able to make art and he actually managed to sell some. He decided to start selling to help medical bills. During their time at the hospital they had bonded more and they had more important discussions.
—le flashback—
" Hey Chara?" Cross rolled over on his bed to face Chara. Cross wanted so bad to cradle his boyfriend but couldn't due to his casts as well.
" Who's taking care of our cat?"
" My mom, I texted her a few days ago." Chara gazed back into his eyes smiling.
They stared at each other for a bit in their hospital beds. Their door was closed but there was still tons of noise outside.
" I'm definitely excited to get out of here next week" Cross held his shoulder.
"Me too" Chara sighed.
They sat in silence a bit as they both scrolled on their phones. They texted each other memes and childhood confessions. They managed to laugh even in pain.
" Could we talk a out something serious for a second? It's okay if you don't care..." Chara tried to talk but whispered.
" What? I didn't hear you."
" O-Oh I'm sorry ... I just wanted to talk about something"
" You don't need to be sorry, and what is it?" Cross replied in a soft tone.
" I just wanted to know your opinions on having a family ...like kids..." Chara slightly blushed.
" I ...mean..if you really wanted a kid ..or even a few ....I wouldn't mind" Cross blushed at that image as well.
" What would you name a child if you could?" Chara held his cheek in his hand.
" Umm... Leo or Shade ... always appealed to me ...." Cross stared at the ceiling.
" Those are nice...What do you think about Stitches?"
" I love that....trust me anything that comes your mouth is wonderful and big for me "
Chara smiled and simply said " Your Dick"
" Real mature Chara" They both laughed like a couple of cute dorks.
Right now , Cross was remembering all of this on their porch. He was staring off in the distance. He chuckled to himself looking at the pink sunset. He thought about what it would be like to have a child with Chara. The first word or first day of school. Cross blushed holding his cheek. Cross drifted into daydreaming as Chara carried himself to the porch. Chara sat down at one of the chairs and puts his crutches to the side. He's very quiet as he sits down so Cross doesn't hear him. There's silence for a bit until Cross starts humming a familiar tune. Chara can't figure it out at first but as soon Cross starts softly singing , he knew it.
" I feel so unsure~as I take your hand and lead you to the dance floor"
Chara makes a dorky smile as he watches his skele being weird.
" As the music dies, something in your eyes~ calls to mind a silver screen,and all its sad goodbyes~
I'm never gonna dance again-"
" Guilty feet have got no rhythm~" Chara finally decides to join. This makes Cross jump a bit but in the end feeling embarrassed.
" Aww, you're a good singer! I never knew that" Chara reached his arms out for a hug.
" I've always been shy about it and its a skill I never really needed" Cross blushed as he hugged him.
Cross kissed Chara's forehead and ruffled his hair.
" Hey Chara?"
" Yes dork?"
" If we did have a kid... would you either want a boy or girl?"
" Doesn't really matter for me , as long as we raise it happy and healthy" Chara had soft eyes.
" How's your shoulder doing anyway?"
" Definitely a lot better, just wish I could help you heal faster ..."
" I-It's fine ....It's not really your fault"
" B-But ... that's it , I just feel like your leg getting broken is my fault...I feel like I could've done so much more.." Cross looked down at the ground.
" H-Hey, Cross.." Chara reaches for his shoulder and puts his hand on it.
" We couldn't have foreseen it ... and don't blame yourself...it was me who ran away..."
" I-I just want to help anyway I can marshmallow ..."
" And you are Cross, just by loving me...." Chara booped Cross' nose.
" Okay...just tell me if you ever need anything" He still looked upset.
Cross walked back inside. While he was inside Chara thought of things that could cheer him up. The only thing he could think about was making tacos for diner. There was something else he could do but he wanted to save that for a special time.
But there's no time like the present.
Chara thought this to himself and knew what to do. He got back inside " Cross! Can we go somewhere real quick?"
" Um... sure. Where?its a bit late."
" I know but we need to go there....and it's a surprise!"
" Well alright" Cross got his keys and he put his coat on.
Chara smiled wide and quickly got to the front door.
" Just follow me!"
Cross nodded and followed him on the streets. Some things were starting to look familiar the more they walked. They were going down the same path that they went to the Underverse Studio. They haven't gone through it in a long time. Cross was having happy memories with the studio though. During the time there , that's when the two of them started to act nice to each other. Chara was having a hard time paying rent and Cross offered to move in with him. That's when they truly became bros. ( That's about where the book began >w<)
They stood in front of the building staring up at the many windows and the stars reflected in them. They sat down on the bench beside the building entrance.
" Why would you bring me here...and why do you look so excited?"
" Well......I ...Cross this is where our friendship truly began.....and this is where I want it to end..."
Cross tilted his head at Chara " W- What do you mean? Are you leaving m-me..." Cross had a tear in his eye socket.
" No silly!" Chara playfully punched Cross' shoulder.
" Yes I don't want friendship anymore , ....I-I want you to be my spouse!" Chara then fiddled with his pocket.
" Your Spouse? W-Wait ! Are you asking for-"
" Marriage" Chara smiled at him again. He took out a small box and faced Cross.
" Kinda sucks I can't get on one knee...but Cross will you marry me?" Chara opened the box. Inside was a ring with a small diamond. Cross made a small gasp and covered his mouth.
" I-Is it not big enough?" Chara slightly joked.
" No-No Chara , It's Perfect!" Cross pulled him in a tight hug.
" Yes , YES , I will be your husband!" Cross had tears of joy.
