You could hear the endless noise of the crowd beyond the red curtain. While you were not about to be on stage, you were still nervous as you glanced at Mettaton. What if humans hated him? Could he handle being rejected? He'd been popular underground, but monster-human relations weren't great right now.
"What's wrong, darling~?" Mettaton said. You jumped in surprise and the robot laughed.
"It's nothing, Mettaton. Just nervous about the performance is all..."
"Don't be, Y/N. Everything is perfect thanks to you." Mettaton placed his gloved hand on your shoulder. He motioned to the scurrying stage crew.
"You're right. Sorry..." you looked at him. "Break a leg."
"What? Why?" Mettaton exclaimed.
"Oh, uh, it's a human expression. It means 'good luck'."
"Oh, well, in that case, likewise, Y/N."
A distant call of "Places!" interrupted your awkward exchange. Mettaton turned around one last time before blowing you a kiss.
"Showtime. See you after the show, darling~."
You watched the rest of the performance from backstage, blushing.
