Early that morning you awake to the smell of Butterscotch pie, a now familiar smell since you've been in this house for a decent amount of atleast Twenty-four hours. You twist in the bed unconsciously, towards the right.

Two red eyes gleam back. Two eyes that you recognize completely. "You should probably get up if you don't wanna miss Breakfast." Chara says as she places two hands on her hips. She steps back.

You sit up and rub your eyes. "Uh, Okay." You mumble, half tired. If you were to stay in the underground. How early everyone wakes up is gonna be a problem for you.

You slowly get out of bed, still tired. You look over at Chara and she's slowly following behind you. "Have you smelled yourself? You should take a shower." Chara says in disgust. You shake your head. "I'm sure I don't stink THAT much." You say through gritted teeth, stopping yourself from cursing her out. Though, If you were to take a shower you'd have no clothes to wear. As the two of you step out of the guest room. the smell of pasta now overwhelming the smell of butterscotch though there's a hint of it still. The smell of pasta gets apparent the closer you get to the living room.

"You guys have human food?" You ask, immediately you feel Chara's gaze pierce a hole through your back. "Yes, Though I'm a human. Frisk is aswell. Sometimes, people throw stuff down here, and we grow our own things." She sighs at the end of the sentence. Its almost like she's getting tired of saying the same thing again and again.

Frisk already sits at the table, Mason sits beside her in a seat; the two of them talk quietly until you reach them. "Finally, you're up. This food took forever." She draws out the ever in forever and looks over at you. This is Your favorite food how'd she know to cook this? Maybe she guessed. Or maybe, she read your mind.

"I told her that this was you're favorite food, I'm just glad she agreed to make it." That answers your question doesn't it. You nod to them and take a seat. Chara takes a seat beside you, the plate of food lays in front of you. A napkin, fork glass of milk sit beside the plate. Its very organized and Pasta is usually a dinner dish.

"Toriel still hasn't come back. I'm getting worried." Frisk looks down at her food with a frown.

"Maybe we should go find her?" Chara asks, you watch as a slight smile appears on her lips. Then disperses just as quickly. It seems like only you notice this. "I mean, didn't she tell us not to go out of the ruins?" Chara shrugs. You take a bite of your food. The pleasant taste instantly stops the rumbling in your stomach.

You continue to eat as the two talk like you and Mason aren't there. "We should still go look for her, we're not kids. We can handle the stuff outside of here." Chara finishes and takes a bite of her food, her face scrunches. Obviously in distaste. She puts the fork down.

Theres a moment of silence as you finish your food. You look over at Mason and he's finished aswell. "Sure... let's do it, but first. You guys have to take a shower." Frisk says hesitantly and looks over at you and Mason. "I'll show you where the bathroom is, Mason." Frisk gets out of the chair and walks down the hall past the guest room. Chara eyes you once again almost as soon as they leave.

"Let me show you something." Chara stands up and starts walking towards the kitchen. She doesn't even look back to check if you're following, but you do so anyways. She stops once in the kitchen. She looks at you, her red eyes shining brighter in the yellow light. "Grab a knife, any knife." You do as she says, and grab a small knife from the knife holder. "Get ready." You shake you're head. "For what?! You tell me to grab a knife now what?!" You practically yell, why isn't she telling you what you're doing. Its pissing!

The light around you seems to dim quickly, you can feel something pull against your chest. You look down at the pulling sensation and see something Black with a red glow around it. It seems to pull against you. Like a fish against the water current. The knife that you had previously picked up is now a dark red, almost black color. The only thing running through your mind is.

How much you hate Chara.

You quickly try to slice Chara in the leg, she throws a quick left hook at your nose. It connects but it doesn't feel like she put heart into it. Like she didn't want to hurt you. The air seems to freeze around the two of you. You try to slice against Chara again, this time forcing yourself to be quicker as you aim at her chest. She brings her left hand up to her chest. Right where you're aiming. You get a quick cut off on her wrist before she smacks the knife out of your hand with her right hand palm. She quickly pushes you against the wall.

"Calm down." She mumbles out before she looks you in the eye. She quickly leans into your face and kisses you. Her lips are soft against yours. It feels like a pillow, enveloping you entirely. It seems to take away the feeling of rage and hate you had felt a moment ago.

This feeling, you've felt it before. You watch something, like a projection playing out in your head. You find yourself sitting against beside a hole in a broken wall.. the sun shines on your skin. You can feel the warmth. Theres a familiar red glint in front of your face, The same girl. Chara, she has tears running down her face and has a light blush forming as you kiss her ferocious intensity You feel tears running down your cheeks. What're you both crying for?

She quickly pulls back and wipes her mouth. "The only way to stop Hate and spite, is to overwhelm it with love." Chara says, Your dazed for a moment. How does she know that though? You look over at the knife, its normal now. More importantly, the blood is gone from it. You hear quick footsteps, Mason and Frisk step into the kitchen. Each has a worried expression on their face.

"What the- What happened?!" Frisk asks, she looks over at you, against the wall. Then at the knife. Then at Chara's wrist. "Did you?!" Frisk is practically screaming at this point. Mason steps in front of you.

"He's fine, I accidently cut myself." Chara says, she looks over at you then winks. "Yeah Frisk, Calm down. It wasn't Y/N's fault." Chara nods. Frisk nods slowly, "Sorry for freaking out Y/N." You shake your head.

"No, I get it. You were just worried." You say quietly and step forward. You feel immense guilt for what you've done to Chara. You'll apologize later. When nobody's around.

Mason looks over at chara's wrist. "You should get that patched up Chara. Y/N you can go take a shower." Mason says, You don't say a word as you step out of the kitchen and towards Toriels room.

Hate and Spite. What does that mean, and what was that heart thingy?
