I am pulled into the house, and the door is shut behind me with a booming thud. My stuff is ripped from my arms and thrown onto the table, waiting for tonight when I will need it.

"Hey Punk!" Undyne says happily, releasing me at last.

I smile, waving awkwardly. "H-Hey."

Her smile seems to falter for a second, but returns to normal when Alphys walks in.

"O-Oh Hey D-Daisy!" Alphys says.

I wave to her as well, walking slowly through the house. I realize that I've never actually been to the Skelebro's house, only Undyne's house.

It's a nice place, and gives off a homey feeling. A green couch sits in the middle of the living room, with a rather large T.V in front of it, and the imprints in the carpet that show that there was a coffee table there before.

Said coffee table appears to be pushed out of the way for tonights activities. It sits against the wall by the door, with a stray dinner plate and another plate with a rock on it. The rock has sprinkles on it, and a name tag that says "Mr. Rocky".

Before I can leave to look at the rest of the house, the stray dinner plate disappears. A red glove sweeps it into the kitchen, before abruptly returning. I am suddenly swept up into a tight embrace, accompanied by the happy screeches of Papyrus.

"DAISY! YOU'RE BACK!" He shouts excitedly.

Wincing from the volume, I smile through it. "H-Hey Papyrus!" I say.

How could he hug me like this, after what I put them all through? Honestly, Papyrus is too forgiving.

Placing me down, he keeps a hold in my hand, dragging me into the living room. "THIS WAY HUMAN!"

Chuckling, I approach the rest of my company, all sitting on the couch or the nearby floor. Sans is on the couch, sockets closed, and head resting on his hand. Undyne is pounding the floor, seated on a pillow, and Alphys is next to Sans on the couch. A stray pillow sits where Papy must have been. Mettaton appears to be flamboyantly sprawled across the steps, eyeing Papyrus.

Papyrus grabs me a pillow, setting it down with a flourish.

"O-Oh!" Alphys says, smirking slightly.

"I-I'll take the f-floor, no worries D-Daisy!" She finishes.

"A-Are you sure Alphys?" I ask incredulously.

"Y-Ya! Besides, I c-can sit next t-to Undyne..." She adds, growing red.

Me and Alphys switch, and I find myself seated next to Sans. Some small instinct deep inside me is screaming that this was planned, but the rest of me is unsure as to why.

My heart does a little flip flop, and my chest tingles with nerves. I feel the same way I do right before a test that I didn't study for.

My hands fidget in my lap, and I fight the urge to get a mirror. Do I look okay? What about the scars on my face? What if he hates them?

Wait, he? As in Sans?

Oh no. Oh no no no no.

Do I like him?

Suddenly a popping noise is in my ears, and a skeletal fingers snapping in front of my face.

"daisy? ya there bud?" He says loudly.

Snapping back to reality, a red heat bursts in my face, a giant blush that I'm sure everyone can see. At least, Alphys and Undyne surely will.

"Y-Y-Ya, I'm here. What were w-we talking about?" I ask sheepishly.

"We were wondering what we should do first!" Undyne fills in.

Nodding, I think as the others toss out suggestions. Some of them make me nervous, and some actually sound fun.

I hear "Spin the Bottle!" Tossed around somewhere, and "The Best Forts Ever!" As well as a game called "Seven Minutes In Heaven", whatever that is. Alphys seems to get excited.

From Mettaton, I hear things like "Kereoke!" And "Posing contest!" But one theme amongst nearly everyone is that I hear "Dance off" thrown around several times.

Makes sense, I guess. Most have them have been missing quite a few practices looking for me. One other thing that my stupidity kept them from. Sighing, I try and pull myself back into the conversation before I space out again. I realize that an activity has been selected, and we are now doing a Dance Off.

Well shoot.

We all stand up, me and Sans included. Though, based off the night in Grillby's, he probably doesn't really want to be doing this either. But we stand up anyway, and I would say that I am excited, except I'm not. At the very least, I'm glad it isn't karaoke.

A stereo is brought out, conveniently located amongst the random crud on the kitchen floor. It is that kind of radio-phone hybrid that has a downloaded playlist, so no phone is required, and no disk either. It is plugged in, and I stealthily sneak out front while a clamor is made in the kitchen. As far as I can tell, some random dog got in and found Papyrus' special attacks.

Only, when I get out to the porch, I find Sans already outside. A silver object is clutched in his hand, and he is making his way around the house. I assume he is going to unlock the back door so that he can sneak back in that way.

But then the rational side of my brain kicks in. Why would the back door be locked from the outside?

And so I follow him.

Except, when I reach the back of the house, there is nothing there. Only the faint echo of a hiss, and whatever made the noise. Just a blank wall, and a small crack running about waist height. With a sigh, Iwalk back to the porch and have a seat on the front step.

Soon the door opens, revealing a bewildered Mettaton, and the sounds of booming music.

"Well there you are, darling!~" he says.

And suddenly Iam back inside.

Mettaton releases his hold on my arm, spinning me into the center of the room. Considering he didn't even bother to ask where Sans was, I assume he is used to his strange disappearances. Especially when one is trying to drag him into something he doesn't want to do.

If only I could perfect the art of sneaking off when I don't want to do something.

Aaaand there's a chapter! Earlier then I expected, because I actually don't have too much homework this week!
