Partnership
*Frisk's POV*
Waking up seemed harder then it ever had been before.
My eyes felt glued shut, and the cold air seemed to rush into every crack that wasn't covered by the ripped blanket.
Shivering, I pulled the blanket over my upper arms and waist, where I needed it most. Then I kept my eyes shut for as long as the weak slumber would last.
This wasn't very long, and they opened slowly as I fought the urge to groan in displeasure.
The light above flickered, once again threatening me with darkness.
Ignoring the threat, I glanced around to remember where I was, and when I had remembered I shivered and didn't fight the groan.
It was soft, and I knew it couldn't be heard by G, even though he was awake and hunched over with his hand rubbing his neck slowly.
I could hear him grunt with discomfort, and I could see his and working away at his neck bones.
When I saw G, my mind flicked back to yesterday's stories and laughs like a slap in the face.
Sitting up slowly, I was surprised to see G didn't notice that either as he continued to rub his neck.
When I thought about it, which was the only thing I could do in a dark room with the man who I despised, I realized that he must be in incredibly tense pain from sleeping in the chair.
I realized that unlike humans, who have skin, muscles, tissue, and blood to keep their bones safe and comforted, G only has bones that are open to the hard cold world around us.
Sleeping on a mattress was probably the only way he could even come close to feeling comfortable at night, and he had let me sleep there while he slept on the wooden chair.
When my mind went back to prison, the thought had never crossed my mind that he used the mattress because he needed too.
I had only thought his was his selfish mind caring for himself.
Thinking about standing up, my eyes glanced at my ankle.
It had felt much better then the night before, and I turned it to my side a bit, only feeling a slight throbbing pain that seemed like an annoying bug bite instead of a sharp pain.
So, taking the chance, I slowly got up onto my knees, keeping the ripped blanket around my cold arms as I relaxed in the quiet room.
Even with the mattress, my back still ached, and I felt even worse for G.
Over come with pity, I stood up carefully and slowly to avoid a shooting pain in my ankle.
The shooting pain never came, and I limped slightly over to G.
Still, he hadn't noticed me and pity continued to ache my heart while I stood behind him.
Without thinking, my hands placed themselves on his tense, bone shoulders.
The ripped blanket was still draped over my arms as my mind seemed to flow blank with pity and concern for G, the monster I hated.
When I touched his shoulders, he jolted with shock and grunted a bit, but didn't protest as I began to work on his shoulders for him.
What was I doing?
There was no possible way I was thinking at that moment, and I seemed to be lost while my hands rubbed and squeezed his shoulders, feeling them tense and un-tense at each movement.
Although I didn't look at his face, I knew G was shutting his eyes as he laid back in the chair, letting me work away at the dull bones.
Never in my life had I expected to do this to G.
Never in my life had I wanted to do this to G.
Yet there I was, helping him relax and feel comforted.
His body moved only slightly with each movement I did to him, back and forth gently as I rubbed his shoulders, griping them tightly then letting go
The gears in his head twisted and turned as I worked on his shoulders, I could see it.
He was thinking of something, possibly anything, yet a deep feeling inside me had a feeling it was about the Peace Plan.
"Have you thought of the Peace Plan...?" I straight out asked him, thinking that because I had him in a weakened spot, I could get something out of him... I could get anything out of him.
Of course, I didn't consider the fact G never has a weakened spot, and I was wasting my time.
"Hm?" He grunted in a tense voice as I continued to work.
It didn't take a detective to know that G was enjoying this, every bit of it.
Though that didn't stop me, and the pity in me continued to swarm, not letting me feel satisfied until he was.
"The Peace Plan?" I said again, leaning my head a bit closer to his, still working at his shoulders as I spoke in a soft gentle tone.
"Hmmm..." He sighed in content and smirked, which almost caused me to stop, "Ya tryin to get information from me dollface?"
Not stopping, I let out a short growl and mumbled, "I can stop you know..."
Right then, I realized I wasn't doing this to trick him, or use him, or get him on my side.
I truly was trying to help him.
No matter how much terrible things he had done to me, no matter how much I hated him and his smirk, helping felt good.
Even if it was for the most selfish man alive.
"I didn't ask ya to come over here and give me a massage..." He grunted, still letting me work at his back.
When he mentioned it, my face burned a bit red and I told myself I was only doing this because he was tense and I had pity on him.
Very pushy pity, that wouldn't stop bugging me like my ankle.
"Hmph... I suppose you're right..." Though I didn't stop, and continued to work on his shoulders, getting into every tense area I could.
G paused for a moment, letting me help him, until he said, "Ya ain't gonna stop?"
"Do you want me to?"
He chuckled and glanced at me with a smirk, "Well if it was up to me... you'd be doing a lot more then just my shoulder and back..."
Knowing he was just teasing, I groaned and rolled my eyes, still massaging his shoulders the best I could.
"Well it isn't up to you. This is my own choice."
"Oh? And why's that?"
"Pfft," I blew a strand of hair from my face, still slowly rubbing his shoulders from the layer of the jacket and turtle neck, "I don't know... I felt bad for taking the mattress last night..."
If I was going to stay with this fool any longer, I needed to at least be honest with him.
"Hm... If ya say so..." He shut his eyes again and let me continue my work.
Only a moment later, he said, "I know how to stop the Peace Plan..."
Unlike the time he told me his plan to escape prison, G said this as if it wasn't a big deal at all, like it wouldn't save the humans and monsters from more conflict and anger.
Yet I was interested, and eager just like he was in prison.
"Well what is it?" I said, trying to keep my voice level and even yet it jumped out of my mouth with excitement.
G smirked at my curiosity, and I felt another spark of anger.
Was it possible I could tell myself to stop being angry? Just for one conversation with G? Right then it didn't seem possible, and I just let him smirk at me while I continued on his shoulders.
"Well..." He continued, which shocked me considering he didn't tell me anything willingly, "I got a friend... a very old friend, and she might be able to find a flaw with this plan. She could prove Asriel's plan wrong, and then probably prove mine right."
"So what are you waiting for?! Why don't you get her?!"
I hadn't realized how hard I was gripping G's shoulders until he winced and swat my hands away saying, "Easy on the shoulders sweetheart!"
Even with my flickering anger I still apologized and sat down on the mattress.
G sighed and laid back, looking more relaxed then before.
This satisfied me and my pity somehow.
"There's a problem dove... She never left the place monsters were released... she stayed because her stupid girlfriend died there or something. So now she just stays in her lab, wallowing in sadness and loneliness."
Although G said this casually, I caught the hint of sadness in his voice.
Barley.
It slipped away and he continued, "The point is, I don't even remember where we came from. No one does. All the monsters just... forgot. Except the royal family, and I don't really feel like asking them about it. Besides, it could be weeks away..."
Sighing, I could see the flaws clearly when he explained them, and I tried to come up with my own ways around it.
"Well... what if we check the news?"
G stared at me long and hard as if I was mentally handicap.
"... Doll, it was eleven years ago."
"I know I know," I waved his words away and continued, "But the library keeps the records of all old newspapers. We could go there and check them out! Perhaps it will give us information! A library is only about two blocks from my house, we can't be too far from there if you teleported us to your house."
The confidence I felt in my own plan dropped when G rolled his eyes and said, "A human library. Humans don't keep record of monster activity. They are very separate. And the monster one is about half way across the city! Its hard to find."
Not loosing posture, I filled with determination and argued, "So? We can make it! We just need to get some sort of vehicle..."
G thought for a moment and sighed, grumbling under his breath, "I really want to get back at that damn Prince..."
Cheering to myself, full of excitement and wonder of the adventure of going to a monster library, I clapped my hands together and said, "Lets leave soon! We can make it!"
"Whoa whoa whoa," G shook his head, along with his hands in front of him, "We? No no, me. I'm going alone. I ain't taking a goodie-to-shoe-slut."
Slumping, I whined, "Oh come on!" Which sounded pathetic and I looked away with a pout.
"What? I don't have to take you with me?"
What I came up with on my feet, was quite impressive, considering the little percentage I had at convincing G to take me along with him on this dangerous, yet exciting adventure.
"Actually, you do. I was the one who figured out the library, and convinced you to go to the monster one. And... if you don't, Asriel can find me again, and the Damn Prince will get what he wants..."
Smiling innocently, I fluttered my eyes at G, knowing I had him under my thumb.
Even though it felt good to help him, it felt good to annoy him as well.
I didn't have time to wonder if there would be regret later.
His eyes narrowed at me.
"... I'll keep you down here..."
"I'll die in a week without food and water! Besides, that's kidnapping!"
"Ain't my problem."
"Come on! It can be the second date!"
My words stopped him, and I realized with embarrassment I wasn't as good at teasing as he was.
"... What?" He said in a tone that made my stomach flip over as if I was a sheep trying to negotiate with a wolf.
Which I was.
"You know..." I continued, trying to defend my case, (even though it was cripplingly weak) "In prison when we were escaping you said it was like... the first date or whatever so it's like this is the second one cause ya know we're... I mean..."
"... That's the most stupid thing I've ever heard."
He didn't need to point it out for me to know.
Still trying to fight, trying to win, I yelled, "Asriel will find me somehow! Then it will be your problem!"
I was bluffing.
I knew I was.
This was dangerous, and I knew it.
Yet G seemed to know himself that Asriel could be able to find me.
So he let out a long, agonizing, groan that seemed a bit dramatic.
Yet it filled me with satisfying determination.
"Fine! ... We'll try to find the library."
Before I could cheer again, G asked, "Why do ya wanna come with me anyway dollface?"
"I'm not going because I want to go with you," I explained, exasperating my words, "This is my problem to. I want to make sure the Peace Plan never works, considering I'm the main part."
Sighing, G rolled his eyes for a painfully long time.
"Fine. Whatever goodie-goodie." He stood up.
Already, I knew this would be the worst partnership.
But that didn't stop me from standing up with him, ignoring the bug bite feeling in my ankle.
