About two hours after the incident, Mettaton came up to your room. You were watching a really good episode of (f/tv). You turned to see your quiet husband.
“Hey,” you said.
“Hi,” he replied.
“You okay?” you asked concerned.
“Yeah,” he sighed. “I'm gonna just go to bed.”
“Well, wait,” you complained. “Do you…wanna talk?”
“About?”
“About what happened.”
Mettaton sighed and laid on the bed.
“I'd rather not,” he complained.
“We’re going to have to talk eventually, you know that, right?” you asked concerned, but stern.
“Just…not right now, okay?” Mettaton sniffled and turned his back towards you.
“But-”
“I SAID NOT NOW!” Mettaton yelled as tears fell from his eyes.
You felt tears brimming your eyes. He'd never yelled at you before.
“Just…just leave me alone,” Mettaton sniffled.
“No. We’re going to talk about this right now.” You sat down on the edge of the bed.
Mettaton didn't say anything. You sighed.
“Why do you have to be so difficult?” You groaned.
“Why do you have to be so stubborn?” Mettaton spat back.
“I'm trying to help you, and figure out what's bugging you!”
“Oh, you think that talking about how I almost killed you is gonna make me feel better?! It won't! I don't want to think about killing you!”
“But that wasn't you! That was a built-in feature!”
“It doesn't matter! You shouldn't even wanna be close to me, better yet trust me.”
“Mettaton, I know you're upset about what that robot made you do, but…I still love you. I will always love you.”
“And I love you too much. I don't wanna hurt you like that again. Ever!”
“You won't,” you said gently as you tried to pat his back, but he was transparent.
“How do you know?” Mettaton looked at you with tears in his eyes. “How do you know for sure that my robot suit won't go berserk on you again?”
“For one, Alphys will rebuild your body without the anti-human combat attacks. And two, it's not in your SOUL to hurt me.”
“What if water still makes me go wild? (Y/n), you can't just act like this isn't that big of a deal!”
“I'm not saying it isn't a big deal. I'm saying that everything is okay now, and I just want my husband to be happy.”
“Well, it's gonna be awhile before I'm happy again.”
“Ugh, Mettaton, why do you do this to me?” You cried. “Why do I even care about you if you’re just gonna sit there and pity yourself instead of taking responsibility for your actions and dealing with it?”
And that's when you slammed the door shut and continued watching your show in the living room area.
~the next morning~
You woke up on the couch. You assumed Mettaton was still sleeping, so you decided to call a particular skeleton. Maybe he could help you fix your emotions.
“hello, (y/n), how’s the-”
“It's not going so well, Sans,” you complained.
“aww, sorry to hear that. i sense that you wanna vent about it?”
“Yeah.”
You started to tell him what happened and vented about how Mettaton was acting.
“Ever since he's been outta his robot suit, he's been extremely emotional,” you ranted.
“well, i mean, he is a ghost, and if you've met his cousin, compare him to how napstablook acts,” Sans suggested.
“I guess that makes sense…but, all ghosts are like that? Emotional?”
“yeah. napstablook was always the sad one, mad dummy, you don't know him but he was a ghost, was always the mad one, and happstablook, or mettaton, was always happy,” sans explained. “i mean, they were still capable of feeling other emotions, but those were their strongest emotions.”
“Oh, okay. Well, thanks for listening to me. I just…I had to vent to somebody. I feel a lot better now.”
“it’s no big deal. you can always count on me to hear you out.”
“Thanks, Sans. I'll see you when we get back.”
“yep. we all miss you guys. heh.”
“Miss you too. Bye.”
“see ya.”
You hung up the phone and sighed.
“Morning, (Y/n),” said a quiet voice.
“Morning, Mettaton,” you replied.
There was an awkward silence until Mettaton broke out into more sobs.
“(Y/n)...I'm so sorry about how I acted last night,” he cried.
“No, I'm sorry about how I acted last night,” you said while folding your hands. “I shouldn't have said any of that. I do care about you, no matter what happens.”
“Really?” Mettaton sniffled.
“Of course,” you hugged him, and for once, he wasn't too transparent. “Are you okay?”
“I'm okay…I love you.”
“I love you too,” you kissed his forehead.
Finally, this was over! You could move on from this mess.
