"It's a shame that Papyrus is sick. I wonder how that happened so quickly. Hopefully this pasta will make him feel better. And i-if it doesn't th-then maybe a kiss w-will!" "Alphys!!" The dinosaur laughed as they both walked through the crunchy snow in Snowdin. "Hmmm. This is quite nice." Mettaton tried to change the subject as the house came into full view. It was two stories high and wooden. It looked 'home-y.' Alphys nodded and tighted her scarf around her neck. "As long as I've known these two I haven't been to there house before. Sans and Papyrus I mean." She said. "Why not?"
"I was.....always busy." There was a gleam in her glasses that hid her expression. All he could see was a frown. He knew that when she said 'busy', she actually meant how busy she was in the lab with the failed experiments. The robot pursed his lips and wrapped his metal arms around her, scooping her off the cold ground. "I bet you can't wait to see Undyne huh, mom?" The scientist gasped in surprise and fixed her spectacles and balanced the container full of spaghetti in her hands. "Y-yeah. Hehe...." She blushed and looked down, embarrassed. "Hiya guys! Come on in!" Undyne swung the door open and smiled wide. Once again showing off her yellow glistening sharp teeth to them. It still made Mettaton shiver. As they walked past her the fish pat the robots back. "Glad ya came." Alphys felt him jerk as she was still in his arms. "Guys?" She looked back and stared at the two of them. "Papyrus!" Her creation gently put her down and ran to the skeleton who was wrapped in a blanket, eating a plate of spaghetti already. So much for bringing their own. But he wasn't worried about that now. "Mettaton! Um....h-hi. How are you?" He blushed and smiled. "How am I? Darling your the one who's sick!" He placed his metal hand on the skeletons head. "Oh I'm fine. Don't worry about me." He liked the feeling of the robot touching him. It felt nice and left butterflies in his stomach. "How did this happen so suddenly?" He asked."I-I don't know. I came home and I started to throw up. My brother wasn't around. I don't know where he is." Sans. If he remembered correctly. "Where does he usually be?"
"His hot dog stands or Grillby's. Sometimes....he goes to a door. The ruins door. He just sits there and.....talks. I have no idea who he would be talking too. He starts to tell his horrible puns outloud so I leave." That was strange. Sans was at the ruins? What would he be doing there? Telling bad jokes? Sounds.....very strange. "He didn't answer his phone either. I just assumed that he fell asleep somewhere. Oh! Have you seen him?" "Well I wouldn't know. What does he look like?" Mettaton asked. "He's a skeleton like me. Short, wears a blue hoodie, white fuzzy slippers with black basketball shorts. Always telling bad jokes." He rolled his eyes at this and shook his head. 'Well this character seems interesting. He obviously has terrible fashion sense too.' Mettaton sat on the couch as Undyne and Alphys whispered to each other and went to the kitchen. It made the robot worry. What were they talking about? "Well darling I could look for him for you? You told me the places that are his hangouts. Would that make you feel better?" Papyrus' eye sockets went wide. "You would do that for me?" The star nodded with a smile. If he didn't know where his brother was then he'd be glad to help. Why not? It was the right thing to do. "Yes darling. I'd be happy to. You sit here and get better. The 'big talk' can wait for a moment. This is more important." "Are you sure about that?" Undyne leaned against the doorframe to the kitchen with her arms crossed. "I know Sans is missing for now but this isn't the first time. He's probably sleeping somewhere like Papyrus said. Besides, this won't take long." Mettaton gritted his teeth but smiled anyway. "Yes of course. If you would be so kind as to actually make yourself known?" He scooted over to make room and patted the spot next to him. In all honesty he didn't want the fish to sit next to him at all but he figured that it would get on her nerves. But to his surprise the warrior excitedly ran to his side and pratically sat on his lap. Way too close. Alphys followed behind and climbed on the armrest next to her crush. Papyrus put his plate down and curled in a ball with his blanket. He was dreading this moment. "Sooo....what's going on between you two? I saw you guys getting super happy at seeing one another. Guys bestfriends or something?" She leaned in close. Neither knew how to answer so they stayed quiet. Mettaton gave Alphys a look. Did she tell her? But what he didn't know was that the scientist had indeed kept her promise. He asked her not to mention it and that's exactly what she did. She shook her head slightly, indicating that she hadn't said a word about the kiss. "We....are friends who clicked when we talked earlier." Papyrus spoke up. Mettaton didn't know what Undyne knew. What the skeleton had told her. If he had told her anything at all. So what was he suppose to say? "We only met today ya know." The fish nodded her head, looking smug. "Right. So he's your friend right Papyrus? Then why were you so nervous earlier? You started to say that you couldn't wait to see who?" The skeleton blushed and started sweating. "I told you. Alphys. I couldn't wait to see Alphys. It has been awhile you know?" Undyne chuckled. "Alphys huh? Funny." She turned to said person. The dinosaur's eyes went wide at the look the warrior gave her. It was.....dissapointment? Why? It made her worry and shake in fear. But she quickly turned back to the two. "Your awfully quiet there robot. Haven't said a word. You seen Papyrus earlier right? What did you guys talk about?" "What did you and Alphys talk about in the kitchen?" He snapped back. "Ohhoho! I'll tell you what we were talking about. Infact, I'll let you all know what I think is going on." She stood up quick and faced the trio. They stared shockingly at her. "I think......THAT YOUR ALL HIDING SOMETHING FROM ME!!!" Undyne slammed her fist through the wall behind her and breathed hard. It made them jump. Alphys wrapped her tail around herself. She didn't like when her crush was upset about something. Especially if it had something to do with her. "So tell me, WHAT IS IT?!" The fish drew near with her arm covered in debris. No one answered her. She snorted and pointed to Papyrus. "Your my bestfriend. I won't get mad. Just tell me what I don't know." The skeleton shook in fear and tried to hide himself with the blanket despite her voice being softer. "I-I...what do you want?!" Undyne sighed and closed her eyes. "Tell me....THE TRUTH!!! You!" She now pointed to Alphys. "Please Alphy, tell me won't you? What aren't you letting me know? Huh?" The dinosaur looked to her creation for help but he only shook his head. She focused back on the warrior and swallowed her spit down. She shivered and shrugged her shoulders. Undyne paced back and forth for a while, making everyone else look at one another. She just wanted the honest truth. What was so bad that they couldn't tell her? Not even her bestfriend? "Look, if it's too personal then....I get it. It just....hurts ya know? You all know but I don't. I have no idea what your hiding from me. It makes me think that.....your talking about me." The last part was a whisper as she had her back to them, arms crossed and head down. Mettaton frowned and sighed. She would have to find out sooner or later. Undyne wasn't his favorite person in the world but this was clearly stressing her out. It wouldn't be all that bad to have her tease him about it would it? She teased him no matter what. He could do the same when it came to her and Alphys. The robot stood up and walked carefully and slowly to the brave warrior. He placed his hands on her shoulders and spun her around. "Look Undyne, me and Papyrus....we kissed alright? When he went for a walk and we ran into each other. I called earlier to tell him not to tell you and told Alphys the same. Don't be mad at them darling." She stared at him with her mouth open and then looked at her two friends. 'Boy am I an ass. They would never talk about me....Oh boy was I wrong. I thought Papyrus had told Mettaton something about me. And Alphys the same.I know I asked if he had liked the robot but I was only playing. I didn't expect them to kiss. I should have known from earlier on the boat. I just jumped to conclusions. Didn't even think about it, just assumed that everything is about me. That's why I asked if they became bestriends now. I thought that they were sharing a secret. Gosh I'm such an idiot.' Undyne moved away from the star and pulled both Alphys and Papyrus in a hug. "I'm sorry."

(A/N: I literally did not mean to write so much of this fanfiction. I like where it's going. This wasn't my plan on how this was suppose to be. It's main focus was suppose to be about Alphys and Mettaton which it still will be but I love me some Papyton. I'm just making stuff up as I go.)
