A dog. A little white dog. Perfectly brushed and fluffy. It's like a cotton ball and a wolf had a baby. Or something. Damn you metaphors.

A cute red collar was upon its neck. The collar said "Piper" on it. Mettaton walked over to you with a smile from ear to ear, but with a hint of curiosity.

"Well?" Mettaton asked. You stood there almost speechless. "I-I...." Stuttering in a dumbfounded manner, you quickly spoke to avoid an awkward situation. "I love it." The look on Mettaton's face was absolutely priceless. He snaked his arms around you in a warm hug. "Oh I'm so very glad, dear! I knew you'd love it!" The dog wagged it's tail happily. You tried to move, but noodle arms were keeping you from doing so. "Oops! Sorry!" Mettaton uncoiled his arms and you picked up the dog.

It licked your face.

You wiped it off with the sleeve of your jacket. "Thank you so much Metta!" He had flopped down onto the bed and was now looking at you. "No problem! It was obviously going to be good since it was from moi." He said and then posed while laying down. You giggled softly and laid down beside him, Piper (reminder that Piper is the dog) laying beside you.

Mettaton rolled over and faced your direction. The room by now had gotten awfully cold and your phone was vibrating in your pocket. The vibrating was texts from Alphys.

Alph: hey

Alph: the heater has shut off so like

Alph: so uh

Alph: bundle up

You sighed and put your hands on your upper arms. The room felt like it was freezing! You faced the robot and curled up a bit as Piper trotted away through the door. So much for a loyal dog and warmth. And to top this wonderful sunday off, there was no blankets on the bed!

Mettaton looked at you in confusion. "Cold, sweetheart?" You thought on the pet name, but nodded anyway. He uncertainly wrapped around you before fully cocooning himself around you. You shuffled and moved closer. He emitted a comfortable amount of heat to keep you warm. Mettaton was very gentle, yet he held you close. You were like two puzzle pieces fitting together.

His arms were gently wrapped around your back and waist. This was very comfortable to both of you. Mettaton's chin rested softly against your head, yours being between his chest and neck. Soft content sighs and tiny grunts were heard in this process. You nuzzled into his neck, smiling. He made little sounds when you did this. They mostly sounded like "Mmm...." Regardless, it was comforting.

You both had slow and relaxed breathing as you cuddled. The soul on his waist seemed as if it had a deep, steady heartbeat that synced with yours. He rubbed your back softly as you nuzzled into him. Honestly, you didn't expect this outcome. But you were sure as hell enjoying it. Like how fish enjoy water. You guess that's a nice metaphor.

The comforting heat lead you into a drowsy state. Feeling sleepy, your eyelids getting heavy, you slowly but surely fell asleep in what felt like heaven.
