"Toriel, darling, I don't understand how you get home so much earlier than me." I said, closing the apartment door behind me. She was on the couch, reading a book about snails.

"Unlike, some of us, I don't spend an hour in a dressing room." Toriel said, without looking up.

"Touché." I walked up to my room, ready to call it a night. I sat on my bed, ready to fall asleep, but I couldn't. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't shake the thought of Papyrus from my head. What was it about him? He was a simple skeleton, but something about him always caught my attention. He was charming, and confident, and...and something.

I lay in my bed, staring at the ceiling, until I drifted off to sleep.

I woke up to my phone ringing. I looked at the time. 3:27AM. Who could possibly be calling now? "Hello?" The caller asked.

"Hi. May I ask who's calling?" I said with a yawn.

"Oh, Mettaton! It's Papyrus!" He said, happily.

"Oh, hello Papyrus, darling." I said, perking up slightly. "Why are you calling?"

"Uh, um, I lost your number. So, I dialed every possible one until I got to yours!" I could hear his pride in his accomplishment.

"That's...sweet?" I yawned again.

"Do you want to meet up for lunch tomorrow?" He asked, I felt myself blush slightly. "I mean, for the 'mission', of course." I shook away my blush.

"Of course, darling! I- We'd love too." I internally face palmed.

"See you there, beautiful-" the line went silent, before someone hung up. I tossed the phone, and myself, back down on the bed, then stared at the ceiling, blushing so hard that my face felt like it was on fire. I pondered how it would go. Why? Why did I wonder so much? It's not a date! It's just...helping a friend. Yeah...just helping a friend. My head was clouded with thoughts of joy, and worry, before I was finally able to drift off to sleep.
