Part 11 of 19: Pleasure To Make Your Acquaintance

(An hour later)

Fell opened the door, revealing Alphys. "Hey Al. Come right in." He stepped aside to let her in. As she walked past him, Fell caught sight of Mettaton behind her. His eye-sockets narrowed. "What are you doing here, bolthead?"

Mettaton glared back at him. "Oh, he's here to observe some of the medical practices I'm going to do. I'm kind of training him for it." Alphys shrugged, trying to draw off the tension.

Fell raised his eyebrow ridges. "If you say so." He shot another glare at Mettaton, the message clear. Behave yourself. Mettaton's nostrils flared defiantly as he returned Fell's glare.

Fell led the two into the living room, where Papyrus was sitting on the couch with a hooded figure sitting on his lap. The figure was facing Papyrus, so the newcomers couldn't see his face.

Alphys and Mettaton sat across from Papyrus. He seemed not to notice their arrival, looking down at the person sitting in his lap and saying something quietly to him.

"Ahem. Boss, they're here."

Papyrus looked up. "Oh, hello Dr. Alphys." He paid no attention to Mettaton.

"Hey Papyrus. So is he doing alright?" She gestured towards the figure seated in his lap.

Lust still hadn't turned to the visitors. He had a black hoodie on this time, but other than that, the rest of his outfit was the same as the one in the photo shoot.

"Kitten, say hello to the visitors." Papyrus cooed, looking down at him.

Lust shuffled a bit, a soft sigh escaping from him. Then he turned, bringing his hood down. 

Mettaton gasped. He was even more exquisite in real life than the photos. His violet-coloured eyelights regarded Mettaton and Alphys with a cool intelligence. The way he moved was perfectly graceful.

Lust's eyes lingered on Mettaton, making him heat up. He seemed to consider him for a bit, then suddenly moved in a fluid, graceful motion to stand right in front of Mettaton.

"Hello." His silvery voice flowed out of him. "It is a pleasure to make your acquaintance." Lust extended his hand to Mettaton, a charming smile lighting up his face.

Mettaton stared wide-eyed at the beautiful creature standing before him. Realising it was rude to stare, Mettaton dropped back to his familiar guise, smiling winningly at Lust. "It's nice to meet you too." He took Lust's hand.

Surprisingly, Lust didn't shake his hand. Instead, he brought Mettaton's hand to his teeth, placing a kiss gently on the back. Lust smiled in amusement as he watched Mettaton become flustered.

"O-Oh my.." Mettaton blushed bright red. Everyone stared open-mouthed at them with shocked faces.

"Kitty." Papyrus's voice held a sharp edge to it. Lust's eye-sockets narrowed in annoyance as they flitted to the side. He didn't bother to turn back to Papyrus. Mettaton was surprised to see a hint of jealousy in Papyrus's eyes.

"Come here." Lust hesitated a moment longer, obviously wishing to do anything but that, but then turned and walked swiftly to Papyrus, sitting back on his lap.
