 -Flashback-
"METTATON, I JUST THINK WHAT WILL HELP YOU RECOVER THE BEST... IS TO HAVE A COOL FRIEND LIKE ME!"
"OH, YOU WANT TO BE MY FRIEND, BEAUTIFUL?"
"AHH... EEH..." Papyrus blushed hardly.
"WELL, I WOULD BE HONORED TO!"
"SO LET'S START OUR FRIENDSHIP RIGHT HERE AND NOW."
"WHAT?? REALLY?"
Papyrus blushed even harder.
"THAT JUST MEANS I WAS RIGHT! NYEH-HEH-HEH!!"
He said flattered.
"HEY, LET'S EXCHANGE NUMBERS, SO WE'LL BE IN CONTACT, NEW FRIEND."
"ALREADY? WOWIE! ALRIGHTY! HERES MINE!"
And they both exchanged their phone numbers.
While Papyrus was home he couldn't stop texting his new friend and favorite star.
"bro, you're already like an hour on the phone! who are you even texting?"
"MY FIRST COSTUMER."
"i thought you hated all the massages and that stu- WAIT, YOU GOTTA COSTUMER???"

 -Back to where we were-
* HELLO METTATON! HOW ARE YOU?
* HELLO TO YOU TOO, DARLING! I'M GOOD, THANKS FOR ASKING!
Papyrus texted his favorite rectangle when he was back home, after the long talk with Undyne, who seemed to also forgive him for what happened in the party.
* HEY... CAN I ASK YOU SOMETHING... ?
* SURE PAPYRUS! WHATEVER IS ON YOUR MIND.
* WHY DID YOU ASK ME TO MAKE THAT PROMISE? ARE YOU ASHAMED OR EMBARRASSED BY OUR FRIENDSHIP?
* ...
* LISTEN DEAR, IF MY FANS AND OTHER PEOPLE WILL KNOW I BEFRIENDED AN ORDINARY PERSON...
* EXCUSE ME?!! YOU CALL ME, THE GREAT PAPYRUS, YOUR FRIEND, AND ONLY ONE WHO COULD MAKE YOU HAPPY, AN ORDINARY PERSON???
* OH, OH! I'M SO SORRY DARLING! I DIDN'T MEAN TO SAY YOUR ORDINARY!! YOU REALLY AREN'T! PAPYRUS! YOUR WAY ABOVE ORDINARY! I MEANT IN TERMS OF POPULARITY AND JOB AND ALL...
* OH. IF THAT'S WHAT YOU MEANT... IT'S ALRIGHT, I JUST WANT TO TELL EVERYONE I FINALLY GOT TO MEET YOU AND TO EVEN BEFRIEND YOU! METTATON! I WANT MY FRIENDS TO KNOW HOW PROUD AND HAPPY I AM!
* OH DARLING... YOU KNOW WHAT? GO AHEAD, SWEATY! MAKE THEM PROUD OF YOU, BECAUSE NOT EVERYONE GETS TO BE MY FRIEND!
* 🚫 This massage was deleted.
* THANK YOU METTATON!!! YOU'RE A GREAT FRIEND! LIKE I AM! NYEH-HEH-HEH!
* ALL RIGHT, I NEED TO GO TO SLEEP, IT WAS A NICE TALK. NIGHT PAPY<3
* GOOD NIGHT METTA!

It was the next day.
"MORNING! DEAR BROTHER!"
Said the pleased skeleton while waking up his brother.
"o-oh, mornin paps!"
"I HAVE GREAT NEWS TO TELL YOU!"
"you decided to cook a new type of spaghetti?"
Sans asked, still half asleep.
"OH, NOT YET SANS! WELL THESE ARE EVEN BETTER NEWS!!"
"so tell me paps."
"YOU REMEMBER I TOLD YOU I GOT A COSTUMER?"
"course bro! you're texting them every day and we even made a whole party cause of thi-"
Papyrus interrupted into Sans' words.

"IT WAS METTATON."

Later then Papyrus went to his restaurant to wait for new costumers to come, as usual.
While waiting, he took his phone out and started watching Mettaton's yesterday's show.
"METTATON IS SO AMAZING..."
He mumbled to himself, blushing.
"I KNOW, RIGHT? DARLING."
"WHA- NNYYYEEEEEHHH!!??!??"
Mettaton, who wore his black outfit and stood right in front of Papyrus, gave him a jump-scare.
"M-METTATON?! O-OH HELLO! DIDN'T NOTICE YOU WERE THERE! AND, WAIT..."
Papyrus took a look at the other person who stood next to Mettaton.
"AREN'T YOU LUCIA REILY?"
"Yup, it's me!"
Said the young lady with the blond hair, who also tried to be disguised.
"Nice! You noticed that's me, even through my clothing! Well, guess I need a better disguise, maybe somethin like Metta's."
"MINE IS TOO CREEPY! BABE."
"SO WAIT... YOU CAME HERE FOR THE DATE? IF YES, THEN ANOTHER STAR IS GOING TO BE MY COSTUMER, AND MY SECOND EVER ONE!! NYEH-HEH-HEH-HEH-HEH- HEH!!!!"
Papyrus cheered happily. Mettaton smiled at him, blushing a bit.
Mettaton and Lucia ordered some spaghetti and their first date started!

While the two lovebirds ate and flirted with each other, the owner was watching them from the kitchen of the restaurant. He was sad.
OH METTATON, he thought to himself. AT LEAST YOUR HAPPY WITH WHAT YOU HAVE... NOW WHEN I THINK ABOUT IT, I'M PRETTY GLAD I WAS ABLE TO DELETE THAT MASSAGE SO FAST THAT HE COULDN'T SEE WHAT I WROTE WITHOUT THINKING...
IF HE WOULD'VE SEEN IT...

HE WOULD'VE PROBABLY BROKE UP WITH ME, IMMEDIATELY.
