Ideas have sparked and this will be turned into a book per someone's request. Just not in the way this was written.

I've been working on many different stories and ironing out their plots(that I still need to actually write).

Cross and Nightmare have cute little fish children in the story that has come from this oneshot. I'm currently writing the plot for the story as I speak(that being literally just writing and not caring where it goes right now).

FYI, they are human in the story I'm creating. Because someone has told me that it gives the stories more variety to which I agree on.

If you want a preview(basically the first maybe 1000 words I've completed) then just comment 'I' and I'll post the first part.

Not here obviously but further down the list.

Chains clattered against the floor as I continued putting books away for my master. My legs ached from the amount of time I've been sitting on them as they scrapped against the floor of my masters shop.

I've been a slave since I turned eleven. Owned and sold off only to repeat the process. Only meeting my little sister Chara once when I was ten.

Being sold off because your own mother thinks your a mistake is a horrible way to think of a child. But for Chara to have a 'better' life that's what our mom chose to do. She chose to sell her own child even when she had the funds to raise the both of us.

My newest master, a 43 year old busty women. She's one of the kindest masters I've had. Shes on the older side and hard spoken but kind nonetheless. She always frowns at my bones, their thin and chipped with scars running across them. Some more then others. She always trying to over feed me too.

I always tell her not to worry but she worries anyways. She even got me new clothes! Well they're the same but new! A simple dress like I originally had on, but instead of plain tan its bright white.

Her shop is a small book store. I quite enjoy reading the titles. A really popular one is called 'Criminal Conflict'. I can't read very well but from what I got, it about a bunch of monsters running away from the cops. Who are also monsters. I'm starting to see a trend here...

More recently there's this strange monster who comes into her shop. A crescent golden moon pinned to his dark purple hat. His clothes being a light purple vest, accompanied by a dark purple undershirt, dark purple dress pants, and dark purple shoes.

He always stares at me and it's slightly embarrassing since I only have a dress on. It reaches a little bit below my knees. My chains were as clear as day so I don't understand why he would keep staring.

I'd glance at him and quickly look away when I would catch a smirk forming.

A strange mysterious monster. A light boned skeleton monster. A seemingly wealthy monster I wanted absolutely no part of.

If I didn't know any better then I would assume he'd be trying to buy me from my master.

Sighing I continue putting the new shipment of books on a shelf. The shelf itself is in one of the darkest parts of the store. And out of my masters view.

Putting the last book on the shelf I stand and step away to admire my work. Feeling a body press up against mine I tense, refusing to move an inch.

A deep chuckle resonates from behind me, "You look so sweet.~" An arm snakes around my waist as I'm pulled back into this strange mans chest. I think it's a man. Looking down at his arm I see skin.

Elbowing the creepy man in the gut he releases me, I sprint away from him but slam into someone else. I would've fallen to the ground if not for the boney hand that caught and steadied me.

Glancing up I felt my cheeks tint at the sight of the strange crescent moon skeleton whose smiling gently at me. Tingles spread around where he was touching me. They felt, nice.

Examining him quickly I noted the book in his hand that I don't recognize, "I-I'm sorry sir. P-Please excuse me." Stuttering I attempted to turn away but he doesn't release me. 'Oh no! Did he see? Did that strange man tell him?' One of those thoughts was quickly ruled out since the creep was behind me. "U-Um, I-I have work to do mister."

His smile falters when he takes in my my frame. My scared and chipped bones, the chains around my wrists and ankles, the worn old collar around my neck, and the thin white dress that doesn't really cover me at all. I felt as though he didn't need to look at me.

The traders never really did care wether skeletons were male or female. They just gave us spare clothing. And never took care of us properly.

I shrunk away while gently pulling at my arm reluctantly. But that only had him pull me closer, into a hug. I stiffened and he let out a sad chuckle, "I'm sorry this happened to you." His voice was like velvet as he nuzzled his skull into the crook of my neck. I shivered as the tingles spread further.

Let it be known that I had no idea how to respond to this so I just hugged him back.

He started humming a soft tune.

It made my sleepy. 'No! I can't fall asleep!' Shaking my head harshly, I gently tried to push away from the strange monster only to have him growl like an animal. Freezing I tilt my head up to see his lips are in a thin line as he's glaring down the way I came. 'I-Is he some sort of animal?' My thoughts where cut off by a loud shout.

"MALANA!" A raspy voice shouts. It was that creep!

"WHAT DO YOU WANT YA OLD GEEZER!" My master shouts back.

"THAT DAMN SLAVE OF YOURS ELBOWED ME IN THE GUT AGAIN!"

I tensed as my head hung low. Knowing what my master would do even if I did tell her what that creep tried. She wouldn't believe me even if her kindness was genuine.

Feeling arms wrap completely around me my head snaps up to the strange monster who pulled me into another hug. He started humming again.

'Who is this monster?' I started feeling sleepy again and lent completely into him. He felt safe.

He seemed content with my compliance as he rubbed my back in a soothing manner while continuing to hum.

I think he's sitting on something in my masters shop now since I was just placed on his lap.

"CROSS WHERE ARE YOU?!" I heard my master snap.

Waking slightly I felt the monsters chest rumble in displeasure. I shuffle around a little, going to stand in a sleepy haze but the monsters arms are still wrapped around me loosely.

I stop moving and glance up with heavy eyelids only to see the goopy mess that's now the strange monster. I can't judge though. Seeing many masters have rendered surprise useless.

What could only be explained as some sort of tar, slathered the light boned monster. Only one eye light was present on his face as black tendrils appeared on his back.

Hearing my masters footsteps she yelped in fright when she saw my new 'friend', "D-DEMON! LET GO OF MY SLAVE YA DAMN PARASITE!" I glanced at my master to see for the first time in a long time that fear was etched into her coldly warm features.

'Parasite?' I questioned still half out of it.

I felt the strange monster put my skull against his chest as he spoke, "You must be referring to the parasite monster King. I am not him human."

Going to speak, the strange monster lifted my chin and silenced me with a kiss. The kiss shot tingles through out my entire body. My cheeks tinted darker as he pulled away with a smirk, "Not now love."

My mind was racing as my soul thudded against my chest. 'L-Love?!'

"Give me my slave." I heard my master unhook her gun from her belt. But I felt too safe in this monsters arms to do much.

I felt the monsters chest rumble in laughter but I was distracted by the nice tune playing inside his ribcage. It was sweet and made me sleepier then I thought possible. Eventually my eye sockets closed and I fell into a deep slumber.

When I woke, the room was different and I was in a very comfy bed. Glancing around the room I sat up. The room was lit by a lamp with a figure standing by the window.

Staring at the figure for a moment, I went to stand but the figure holds up a hand signaling me to stop.

I comply.

My legs hanging over the side, just barely touching the carpeted floor. 'Is he my new master?' Cocking my head to the side, I watch as the figure came closer into the light. It was the mysterious monster!

The goop was gone and he seemed calmer now. Content even.

He cupped my face in his hands, running his thumb across my cheek. Smirking as he examines me, the smirk faltering when his eyes travel over my neck and arms.

Crouching down he takes my hands in his, "You were taken away from me. But I retrieved you." He spoke proudly but it only left me confused, "You're my soulmate love." He explained further.

I blinked at him and he leaned forward and kissed me again. Me returning the kiss as he growled approvingly. Light tingly sparks dancing between us.

He pulled away and I almost whined as he smirked at me. His kisses were addictive and pleasant.

Taking my wrists in his, he broke my chains and did the same with my ankles. Moving to my neck he untied the restraint as I stared at him wide eyed. 'Who is he. What is he.'

Seeming to sense my question he took one of my hands and gently kissed my wrist making me squeak, "I'm the guardian of the moon my love. It's about time I have heirs to my thrown. Will you allow me the honor of indulging myself with you?" He asked as he stared at me with love and adoration.

I couldn't think straight. He was doing something to me because all I could think about was him. Slowly nodding my head a grin spread across his face as he leaned forward once more to capture my lips in his.

I gently pushed him back a little as our breaths mingled.

Stuttering, I at least wanted to know the name of my- suprisingly -already accepted lover, "W-What's your name s-senpai?" My cheeks flushed crimson as the nickname. I didn't even know I wanted to call him that.

He leaned forward again as his breath tickled my neck, "Nightmare love, Nightmare." Kissing my neck I let out a breathy moan.

I didn't leave that comfy bed that night.
