Lunar Cycles and YouTube Stars (Mettaton X Reader)

Eleven: A Monologue and Friendship?

Mettaton's POV~

I sighed. (Y/N) just left for work and I'm bored! I decided to check my YouTube channel to see how many likes and-OMG!! The breakfast eating video earned 500 views, 45 likes, and 45 more subscribers which brings me to...65 subscribers!? My channel really was growing rather rapidly.

Let's read comments!!

'What in the world did I just watch?' 'Is it strange that I kinda liked this?' 'Who's that girl?!' 'Mettaton, is that your girlfriend?' 'I SHIP IT!!!!'

"Oh my...that wasn't expected. They think me and (y/n) are together? That's so...silly! Hehe...heh.

"I'm not shy, or nervous. I'm very charismatic! I can talk to strangers, hug complete strangers, have a giant fan base and talk with all of them...but, I can't tell (y/n) how I feel?

"I don't know why I can't just say it. I've got it all, she said. The looks, she loves, the talent, everyone adores, the personality, she thinks I'm a narcissist! But she also knows I'm sweet and kind, she told me that.

"I dunno. Maybe she doesn't like me back. I could jeopardize our friendship! Why didn't Alphys install that program I wanted? I didn't want to feel love. The romantic love I should say. I still wanted to love my fans, but I never wanted to settle down and find a soulmate.

"Ugh! This is hurting my head! Why can't I just ask her? The worst that could happen is she can say no and the slight chance of ruining our friendship! Why is this so hard!?

"Don't ask her on a date, just say you want to have dinner at a nice restaurant. Yeah, that's much better. But...how would I ask her when I'm too nervous?

"I have to make it perfect! I'll have to settle for Saturday night dinner because who wants to take them out in the middle of the week? I have two days to think of something. It has to be amazing, like Mettaton-amazing! But I have no idea."

Your POV~

"...and then, she slammed the door on my face," cried Bonnie, another coworker.

She had curly hair dyed in a purple ombré, hazel eyes, and glasses. She was a lesbian and everyone knew she had the biggest crush on you.

"Uh-huh," you muttered carelessly as you gave a customer their food.

"What did I do wrong, (y/n)? Gracie was my everything!" She sobbed.

You sighed, sick of her drama. You checked the time, your shift was almost over so you decided to start cleaning up. You tuned out Bonnie's sad story.

"GO HOME!" KeKe yelled from her office.

You walked out of the building. You plugged in your earbuds and started walking. You needed the fresh air. Good thing you didn't bring your car. Someone suddenly tapped your shoulder and you turned and punched them in the face.

"OW!" Yelled a familiar voice.

"Oh, not you," you groaned.

It was Zachary, your ex.

"A sorry would be nice!"

"Sorry that you're such a jerk."

You walked faster.

"No, (y/n), wait! I just want to keep you company!" Zach ran to you.

"After what you did to me? Yeah, I don't think I want your company."

"C'mon, give me another chance...please? I'm not asking to be your boyfriend, I just wish we can be friends again."

"Goodbye, Za-"

"I...heard about what happened to our little Frisk..."

You stopped in your tracks. You turned and glared at him.

"Don't you dare call him our child! He's MY son!" You screamed.

"I'm his dad! And some mother you are! You put him in an orphanage! You made him feel unwanted!"

"I adopted him back! I let him call me his sister!"

"Well whoop-dee-doo! You let him jump off of a mountain full of monsters!"

"He freed them all! Every single one!"

"He could've been killed, (y/n)! Killed! You let him jump!"

"Need I remind you he did this in the middle of the night?! While I was asleep!? Zachary, it's not like I told him to go jump off of a mountain!"

"Whatever."

"Yeah, whatever..." You sighed looking down. "You know, I was really worried. About Frisk."

"I was too...especially when I couldn't find him at the orphanage," Zach said quietly.

The two of you started to walk again.

"You tried to adopt him?" You asked shocked.

"Yeah, but you beat me to it," he said. "And then four years later, he went missing and...I didn't know where he went! You wouldn't tell me anything."

"I should've told you, and...I'm sorry for keeping it a secret."

"...it's fine." Zach paused. "How is he?"

"It's not looking good," you sighed. "But he should stay determined. He will stay determined and he'll get through it. I know he will."

Before you knew it, you were home. You turned to Zach and smiled a little.

"Thanks for walking me home," you hugged him. "I think we can still be friends."

"No problem, (y/n)," he hugged you back hesitantly. "See you later."

You unlocked your door and walked inside to see Mettaton on the computer filming. You stayed quiet to not disturb him.

"Alright, darlings, that's the end of this super serious episode. Comment down below what I should do. My fate kinda depends on your decision! Love you, beauties!"

"Hey, Mettaton, I'm back," you smiled.

"Hey, gorgeous! How was work?" The robot asked excitedly.

"Annoying," you groaned sourly.

"Aww, what can I do to make you feel better?"

"Just...leave me alone for awhile okay? I have some...things I need to think about," you went to your room, locked the door and flopped onto your bed.

Suddenly, your cell rang. It was Papyrus.

"He's Awake!"
