-Chapter Six-
It was Christmas morning and everyone sat blearily on the couch. Papyrus had insisted they get up early because he wanted to catch Santa Clause. Nobody had the heart to tell him. Or, well, nobody had the heart to cross Sans.
Chara held her present from Frisk, a cute little mini Asriel. She watched Frisk struggle to put on her present, a charm bracelet with a flower, a heart, and the word love. She reached over to help her, and clipped the ends together. Frisk was shaking slightly, and Chara knew why.
On Christmas Eve they had talked for a long time. The duo had decided to tell everyone that they were together. Chara was a bit scared to admit that they had been together for almost two years. Frisk nudged her and they stood up.
Chara's insides twisted as she stood before her family. Clutching the Asriel doll, she closed her eyes. Frisk took a deep breath, and Mettaton looked up from his extra large tube of edible pink glitter.
"So, um, I, well, Chara and I, have, uh."
Apparently Frisk was having trouble admitting their secret. Chara knew what she had to do. It was with sudden clarity that she saw that they couldn't keep the secret any longer. Surely it was better to tell them now than have them find out? Although, Alphys already knew, and Sans probably did.
"Frisk and I are dating."
Silence greeted her words, broken by a snort from Flowey. Speaking of the flower, he had a strange reaction to the Asriel toy. He had looked at it, eyes filled with contempt. But beneath the disregard, there was a glimmer. Chara couldn't describe it, she could barely see the spark.
Mettaton flashed a triumphant smile, sticking his hand out to Asgore.
"I knew it! I told you darlings, Frisk has a dramatic flair. She would admit it when everyone was here during an important day! Pay up!"
There was a shuffling of money, all passed to the shiny robot. Chara choked while Frisk sputtered.
"Y-you? You knew?"
Toriel chuckled, faintly blushing,"Well, it has become quite obvious over the last weeks. You have been rather, er, eager to see each other."
Chara blushed furiously, Frisk nearly the same shade of red. She sat down and Frisk passed a candy cane and she gratefully accepted, glad to have something to concentrate on. Toriel glanced nervously at Asgore, and he nodded. They turned and looked towards the group.
Asgore smiled at Toriel, and she smiled back, a bit of doubt flickering in her amber eyes. Asgore cleared his throat.
"Well, we have a bit more happy news for the family. Toriel is expecting!"
Flowey shrieked and launched himself backwards, earning him several questioning glances. Chara guessed why he was so angry. His parents didn't know that their son was alive and sitting next to them. He felt that, even after all these years, his parents yearned to replace him with other children.
"What?! Do you think I want another kid pulling on my petals? Ha! You wish!"
Toriel shook her head,"Now, now Flowey. The child won't be born for another five months or so. I'm sure they will know not to pull on your petals."She turned to Frisk,"Honestly. That flower. Ha ha, never a dull moment with him around."

Chara giggled, wiping the icing off her cheek. She flicked it at Frisk, who tried to dodge, but failed. The chocolate icing ended up on the sleeve of her black jacket.
They were at a party in some big meeting hall. Apparently Mettaton had been planning a huge Christmas party. All the monsters were there, and several humans as well. Toriel had made them change into dresses, much to Chara's dismay.
Frisk was wearing a white, sleeveless dress with gold and black sequins. Her hair was down, falling onto her black jacket. Chara was in a short sleeved, dark blue dress. She had lost the jacket that went with it. Her hair was down as well, a glittery headband holding it in place.
"Come on Frisk! Let's dance!"
Chara was feeling rather confident tonight. She may or may not have consumed a small amount of alcohol. Hey, it was Mettaton's fault for putting the whiskey dispenser next to the fountain drinks!
Frisk laughed,"Oh, go home Chara, you're drunk."
She forced the smile off her face. She reached for Frisk's cupcake, and took a bite. Completely straight faced, Chara smushed the cupcake on Frisk's face.
"Hey! That's not fair!"
"Shut up and kiss me."
They leaned into each other, lips touching. They embraced the closeness of the other, souls pulsing in unison. Years seemed to pass as they kissed. Icing covered the duo, but neither cared. They pulled apart, breathing heavily. Wolf whistles pierced the hall. Frisk blushed.
"Oh, be quiet!"
The hall burst out with noise, and Chara relaxed, glad to be out of the spotlight. She grabbed some napkins and gave one to Frisk. They cleaned the icing off themselves and sat to the side, watching the party.
A few minutes passed in comfortable silence between the two. Suddenly, Sans stumbled out of the crowd. Chara squinted in the semi-darkness. Was he holding someone's hand? It looked to be human, but then she noticed the ears. She had, were those panda ears? Chara saw Frisk narrowing her eyes, then a big smile lit her face.
"oh, hey kids. uh, what a party."
"SaaaaAAaAaaAAaaaaans, aren't you going to introduce us?"
"yeah, i suppose i should. girls, this is Jojo. Jojo, this is Frisk and Chara."
"Oh my gosh. You're Frisk?!"she gushed,"I've heard so much about you! You two are so cute together! Sans has told me about you being together."
Jojo ruffled Chara's hair, and she ducked, wary of this newcomer. Sans mumbled something about getting some air and the two walked off. Frisk watched them leave, a bemused expression on her face.
"What's up that look for?"
"Can't you see? Sans found himself a girlfriend!"
"Hahahaha! Really? Oh, that's funnier than his jokes! Wait, you're not kidding, are you."
"No, I'm serious. Either she's his girlfriend or he has a major crush. I, um, recognize the symptoms."
"Well,"she picked up her whiskey-Sprite mixture, completely forgetting about the whiskey in it,"isn't this a Christmas to remember?"
Frisk giggled, taking the cup from Chara,"Keep that up, and you won't remember it at all!"
