.Chara's POV

It's been a month since I dumped Frisk, and I left the country where we were staying previously. There was no sign of him, physically in my new place. However, I always keep hearing about him in the media. It's all about how he is so heartbroken and not mention the word has spread that he still wants me back. I should feel worse about this, but I'm finally over him, and it took a solid week of crying and telling myself that it's okay. You did the right thing, and no one can tell you differently. It was so hard to get over that fact, but now I know I'm fine, and I'm happy, or at the very least, I have tricked myself into being happy for now.

But on a brighter note, I decided to help some who was in the wrong place in their life. She was in the wrong crowd, also with an evil group of friends as well. Then I gave her the option for her to have a better future and that I would clear everything up as long as she followed two simple rules. Her name is Niko. It wasn't particularly easy nor hard. I solved all of it, and it has been quite the ride with her. My studies for my doctor's degree are going well, but my social interactions with others are well, not the most significant thing that I'm good at, but I'm working on it. 

During the third week was the most challenging time in my life finicality. Mainly due to me wanted to start fresh so I decided to try and get a part-time job which should be have been easy, however, being the ex-girlfriend of a celebrity wasn't already a difficult thing to deal with with with most of the time. The person who would interview me would always be asked me about Frisk, and I told them I knew him, but that was it. It's still the same. However, I found a perfect job at a library that somehow pays decently well but often is not used by many people. I did bring a lot of attention when news spread that I worked there. However, it was just a bunch of guys and surprisingly some girls as well wanting to ask me out or look at me while I was working. The harassment continued throughout the week and even now.

I rejected them all, and well, they tried to spread that I was a whore, but not only failed it did nothing to dissuade me from continuing working on my degree and at my job at the Library. I have been reading a lot more than usual, mainly because I'm still so used to the pace of when I was with Frisk. With the help of Niko and my determination. I have managed to slow my pace down a bit, but still, I had a lot of free time mainly because everything was so hectic and always on a time crunch and filled so many things that I had to plan so when my schedule became utterly empty I didn't know what to do then.

 I tried to fill in the gap by trying to do any extracurricular activities for college at the beginning of the month then I stopped midway through to help Niko out with getting her life sorted out. It was a challenge to get her to go my speed even for a bit, but overall I enjoyed Niko's company. She lives with me in my apartment, which we both pay for with our money.

However, despite all the goods things that are happening to me, there are always still bad things as well. Anyway, in about a week it will Toriel's birthday. I'm not sure if I want to go or not, but I guess I can spare the time. I just hope things don't get awkward or worse; something terrible happens between Frisk and me. Right now, I don't need that in my life. I sigh as I start packing up, and I have to admit I'm a bit scared to see Frisk even after this month. I look at my hand, it slightly shaking, and I breathe out as I clench my fists and breath out as I calm myself down.

As I was beginning to pack up, I sense Niko peeking in my room. "Hello, Niko is there something I can help you with?"

"Yeah, where are you going and when are you leaving and are you leaving for good?" She asks, looking at me with a worried expression.

"First and foremost, I'm going to be attending my mother's birthday, and I will probably stay for a few days at the least, and no, I'm not leaving for good besides who is going to pay for the other half of the rent?" I say to her as I realize that I depend on her as much as she depends on me.

I look at Niko, and I feel an oh so familiar feeling in my belly I realize what it is and I hate it because of what I have done for her. I don't want to do the same thing as Frisk did to me. I want her to fall in love with me naturally, but at the same time, it so painful to wait for someone else to make the first move. I feel my emotions begin to burst, and I try to suppress this raw emotion, but it so confusing, and I can't help but encourage it.

Frisk did starve me from the affections of an actual relationship as I stop packing and walk over to Niko and look at her, and she looks at me. I feel my cheeks start to turn red as I look at her, and my heart burns for her. I look at her again, and as I look up, she is leaning in, and I lean in as well, and we share our first kiss. It was lovely and blissful as we pull her close into a tight embrace as this kiss deepens in passion. I pull away happy that it happened. I am finally over him, and I have to thank Niko for everything. (Both in the story and for a lot of my art that I have commissioned)

"You knew I'd liked you for a while, haven't you?" I say as she held me in a hug.

"Yeah, I have known, but I was waiting for you to make the first move. What took you so long?" She says with a small smile.

"I didn't want you to feel like you had no choice. Like you had to go out with me; because of everything, I did for you. I wanted the love to be real, you know? I want to make sure that if we got into a relationship that it was a good one instead of the illusion of a good one." I say to her as I look into her eyes, and she smiles at me as she pulls me into a passionate kiss.

I kiss back, and I'm happy to have this life and this second chance, and I got thank Frisk and Gaster for helping to recreate my body. I should also tell Asriel what has happened. I smile at Niko and at the thought of me going home. I should probably warn her about something that might happen if I return.

"Niko, we need to talk about some things, alright?" I ask her with my heart still pounding it as I try to calm it.

"Yes, what do you want to talk about?" She asks me, and I'm so thankful for her.

"Well, the main thing about this trip back home, I might end up doing some things. You know about dealing with your ex can be right?" I say full, knowing her situation.

"Oh, No need to explain. Not to me. Not for that." She says as she pulls me into tight embrace and smiles as I feel her arms around me.

"I'll miss you, Niko," I say to her as I feel my her heart and its racing just like mine, and I know that she is the one.

"You know I will miss you too, but I have one question before you go," She says to me.

"Oh, what is the question?" I ask her genuinely curious.

"Who is going to cook for me? I mean, I can't cook." She says with a small blush on her face as I giggle at her.

"Oh, what am I going to do with you?" I say the sentence jokingly as I'm happy to be with her.

"You know you love me." She says with as I pull her into a kiss feeding my craving for affection that I have been starved for so long, enjoying every second of it.

The kiss begins to progress further than I anticipated, but right now, I am enjoying it far too much to stop it. My hand begins to wander Niko's body feeling her up as I can feel my lust for her begins to burns bright and hotter than before. I wanted to continue, but Niko stopped me before we got too into it.

I pout for a bit, but I'm thankful for her because, despite everything, I'm still a virgin, and to be honest, I have only known her for a month, and that's way too soon, no what our feelings are. She looks away, blushing very severely as I pull her into an embrace once more before letting go, and I went back to packing for about five days.

Things were ready to go, and I was looking forward to coming back here after my trip to the trip itself. If I am honest, I'm dreading this trip mainly due to Frisk and how he will react to me. I sigh in exasperation as I finish all my thoughts and just so happens to finish packing for my trip.

I begin to think about all the monsters that I left behind and wonder, will I be able to move on once again just for my happiness? This thought has always been in my mind from right when I left, but to be honest. I know I'm going to move on again. The reason is, "I have spent most of my afterlife trying so desperately to help those who have fallen, but I was unable to and remained as a, well as a spirit utterly helpless as I was all of those human suffer. However, I continued to help them even after everything, so now it is my time to have some of my happiness finally!

My time with Niko was fun, but when you spend time with someone you love. Things can go past you by very quickly if you are not careful. A week has passed by, and Niko and I have spent it together. I was making it harder for me to leave her. At one point, I thought about ditching it, but I already made it this far so that I will go through with it. I make my way to the airport and board the plane back to the place I was at before. At first, I thought I was fine, but as I landed there. I felt nervous about visiting anyone. I wasn't sure if anyone forgave me for choosing my happiness instead of feeding someone else's happiness.

A took a breath and began to walk towards Undyne's and Alphys' place. I stood at the front door of their site, and I couldn't help but be nervous. Now that I think about it, this was the most nervous I had ever been about something. I take one more deep breath and knock on the door. I waited for a response as much to my dismay; Frisk was the one who opened the door.

"Greetings who is i-" His words stopped dead in his mouth.

"It's been a while, hasn't Frisk?" I say with a small smile towards him, but everything in my body is telling me to hug him or kiss him hell do something to him, but I decline that.

A/C So sorry for the massive delay in posting for well anything. I had a lot of personal stuff to deal with, so I hope you can understand!
