When Sans arrived home instead of sleeping right away, like usual. He scavenged though his kitchen looking if they had the right ingredients for the pie. To his luck they had most of the ingredients except for the butterscotch, but that wasn't much of a problem, he could run to the store and buy some later.

Sans put all the ingredients in one of his bed pillows so he'd know where they were later. Plus he didn't want papyrus finding them because he wanted to surprise him, there was no reason in particular, well maybe there was. He actually wanted to test it on papyrus before the woman behind the door. What was her name? Toriel? Yeah, Toriel! He really wants Toriel to be proud of him for succeeding something, not that she really knows he normally just lays around and does nothing all day, but she knows he doesn't normally cook. He did mention that right? He remembers last chapter he did, he's relieved he did so.

Sans is pulling his daily routine and resting on his bed, almost asleep until he hears papyrus yelling.

"SANS HAVE YOU SEEN THE BROWN SUGAR??"

Sans sat up and stretched "Oh yeah I have it."
He reached into his pillow and shuffled around and gets hold of the bag of brown sugar. He exited his room and handed the sugar to papyrus

"SANS WHY DID YOU HAVE THIS??"

"Oh uh you know" he shrugged "eating it I guess"
Papyrus made a disgusted face.
"BY ITSELF??? YOU DIDNT PUT IT ON TOAST OR SOMETHING?"
Sans put his hands behind his back and began rocking back and forth from the balls of his feet to the heel
"Yup! And uh I'm actually gonna need it back when you're done."
Papyrus cringed and went back to work

-time pass-

Sans trotted out of his room and made his way to the door

"AND WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU'RE GOING? DINNER IS ALMOST DONE!"
"Oh uh I'll be back, won't be long." He reached for the door nob and slightly opened the door till Papyrus slammed it and left his hand there to prevent it from opening.

Sans glared at Papyrus confused
"Something wrong bro?"
"YOU ARE GONNA STAY HERE TONIGHT AND EAT DINNER WITH UNDYNE AND I, YOU ALWAYS CLAIM YOU WONT BE LONG BUT YOURE ALWAYS GONE FOR HOURS!!!"

Sans felt some magic run to his boney cheeks, was he really gone for that long when spending time with Toriel? Sans felt a wave of guilt run through him, he's been hanging out with his friends more than his own family...

Wait Papyrus is having a friend over that he spends upon hours with so maybe--- Nono that's a dumb idea, she won't agree to coming out there! But then again Sans never expected her to come outside to watch him eat pie either...

"Hey bro I actually got a plan, do you think I could uh, invite a friend over to eat with us?" Sans nervously rubbed his arm

Papyrus seemed surprised

"WELL OF COURSE!!! THE MORE THE BETTER!!! WHO ARE YOU BRINGING OVER? GRILLBY?? OH OH OR ARE YOU BRINGING DOGGO?"

"Well uh it's...." Sans could feel his magic running through his body and rushing to his cheeks.
"You don't know them, or uh at least I don't think you do. She's---"
"SHE? YOU'RE BRINGING A GIRL OVER??" Papyrus interrupted
Sans raised his imaginary eyebrow
"Uh you are too remember?? Undyne's a girl too you know"
"UNDYNE'S MY MOM SHE DOESN'T COUNT!! PLUS SHE'S GAY"
Sans crossed his arms
"Bro gender doesn't matter, a persons personality doesn't depend on their gender..."

Papyrus looked defeated and let go of the door for Sans to exit

"Oh and bro, I'm not real sure if she'll say yes, she's uh.... A bit shy I guess?? So don't be disappointed if I come home alone"

"THAT IS FINE BROTHER, IF SHE CANT COME THEN YOU COULD ALWAYS TAKE SOME TO HER LATER!! WHAT'S HER NAME ACTUALLY??" Papyrus slightly tilted his head in confusion

"Uhhhh" Sans scratched his head
"I can't remember, she'll introduce herself if she comes over, see ya'!"
"WAIT--" Sans closed the door and scurried off to Toriels

----------
When Sans arrived to the woods he could already hear his friend practicing for when he shows up. It made him giggle like a little child at the thought of her actually practicing and possibly doubting herself about her lame jokes.

Sans approached the door.

"Is that you my friend?? You're early!" She sounded excited

"Hey! Uh yes I am earlier than usual huh?" He sat down in the snow and curled up into a ball
"Hey umm.... I actually have a question for you." He felt his monster heart beating heavily, he was real nervous, this was the most awkward thing he had to do all day, Sans wasn't real use to asking people out. He always asked others to hang out but this was different in his eyes.

"What is it you want to ask me?"
Sans shook at the sound of her voice. He didn't realize he went silent for at least ten seconds.

"O-oh uh, yeah, um.... Like I was wondering if uh.... You wanted to maybe come over to eat at my place? My bro is making spaghetti. U-uh there's no pressure if you don't want to and stuff!!! I won't force if you don't want to!!"

A moment passed of silence

"I would love to, let me grab something real quick." He listened to her foot steps as they got quieter
She must be getting her scarf

When she came out she was wearing a lot. She had a huge robe dress thing that had a hood on it, she had the hood up with the scarf around her mouth. The only feature you could really make out are her huge red eyes. Did she think it was that cold out here? You'd think she'd actually wear less heavy clothing since she's literally covered in fur.

She gave a little thumbs up so show she was ready to leave.

Sans looked like a complete munchkin walking next to her. Well he looked like one regardless but knowing she was what? Like 6"9 while Sans was barely 5"0, he was more like 4"10 but eh, who's counting.

On their way to Sans house Toriel examined everything around them. She was doing fine till they reached the huge bridge. Sans took a few steps onto until he noticed Toriel wasn't following, he turned to face her.

"You alright?"
Toriel pushed the scarf down to show her mouth so Sans could hear her.
"Oh yes uh, I'm just sorta scared I guess haha, just... Give me a moment to get some confidence to cross this."

Sans trotted back over to his pal

"You uh, scared of heights?"
Toriel nodded slowly
Sans crinkled his hands in his pockets

"Um.... Do you want to hold my hand while you cross? It makes my brother feel better when he's scared to do something so..."
Sans tried hiding his blush with his jacket and pretended to cough.

Sans looked down and saw Toriel with her hand out towards him waiting for him to take it.

Toriels hand wrapped around Sans's like a burrito, it was a lot larger than sans thought and much warmer too. Sans slowly lead the way across the bridge, he was really in no hurry. Toriel came to a sudden stop as the bridge swayed, she let out a little gasp

"It's alright! It's gonna be okay I'm here with you." Toriel squeezed Sans hand a bit tighter and nodded, Sans rubbed the back of her hand with his thumb as they made their way to the other side of the bridge.
When they reached the other side Toriel didn't let go of Sans hand right away, so Sans didn't let go either, like I said, he was in no rush.

Sans wedged his hand away when they reached snowdin.

"Here's our town, there's not a lot more walking to do."
Toriel nodded and followed closely behind Sans, she let one of her big hands rest on Sans right shoulder.

-----

"Well here we are! This is where I live" Sans looked up to Toriel and watched her scan the house with curious eyes, she muffled something under her scarf but it wasn't quite understandable.

Sans opened the door and to his surprise dinner was already laid out on the table and undyne was already waiting at the table. It seems like they were waiting for them to arrive before they started to eat.
