Chapter Text
As the final shirt was packed in her pack, Frisk took a sigh of relief. "Finally done." After she left her room, Frisk was surprised to see her aunt and uncle standing by the door. "Wait, I thought you guys would be sleeping by now." The elderly woman shook her head. "Not without giving our little girl a hug!" After saying that, the two surrounded Frisk and gave her a hug. Frisk hadn't planned on crying today. Of course, she was emotional, but she had told herself to stay strong. But this. This was too much for her to bear. She ended up breaking down into tears at their embrace. After about a few minutes of this, they let go of her. Frisk walked to the door. "...I love you, OK?" Her guardians nodded, and Frisk walked out the door.
Chara didn't bother giving her parents a goodbye when she left for college, not like they'd actually say it back, anyway. She was well aware of the fact that she was an accident. A mistake. Someone who was never meant to be in this world. And yet, she was anyway. All because her idiot father forgot to pull out one time, 9 months before she was born. She looked back at her house, a symbol everything she hated about this world. She stuck up her middle finger at the house, and began to walk to the college. It wasn't all that far, and she figured some exercise couldn't hurt.
Eventually, they both reached the gates of their home for the next year. The letters on the gates spelled out: "UNIVERSITY OF EBOTT". Frisk looked overwhelmed by the amount of people, while Chara seemed almost comfortable around them. Eventually, all the people reached the dormitory buildings where they would be assigned their rooms for the next year. Frisk and Chara both walked up to the main booth, and they were both unknowingly assigned the same number. When they both walked in the elevator, they each gave each other a glance. "...So, what room you got?" Chara was a bit taken aback by suddenly hearing this girl's voice, but figured there was no harm in telling her. "Oh, uh... I'm in room 263." When she spoke, Frisk detected a hint of an accent she was unaware of. British, perhaps? Frisk took a second to look at her card. "Oh! Same here! What are the odds, right?" Chara sighed. Well, at least it could have been worse, right? The elevator suddenly opened, and the two walked out. After a few minutes, they had found their room. Frisk opened the door for Chara. "After you, roomie." Chara sighed. "Do not call me that." Frisk stared at Chara. "Well, you never gave me your name, so..." Oh, right. Where had her manners gone? "My apologies. I should have introduced myself earlier." "Oh no, it's fine! You didn't know we were gonna be roommates, it's not your fault!" Chara was slightly relieved to hear this girl accept her apology was accepted. "In any case... Greetings. I am Chara. Pleasure to meet you..." Chara waited for Frisk to introduce herself. *Wow, she's so formal... and kinda pretty- Focus, Frisk! You barely know this girl. Now shut up and introduce yourself.* After mentally scolding herself, she obliged. "Frisk is my name, nice to meet you too." Frisk held her hand out, offering a handshake. "I hope we can get along!" Chara slowly reached her hand out and shook Frisk's.
