Papyrus Meets your Dad

"I want Papyrus on my team!" Oliver shouted. "You had Papyrus on your team last time! [Y/N] sucks at basketball!" Ethan shot back. You were fake pouting. "That hurts, truly."
"SMALL HUMANS, PLEASE. DON'T FIGHT! I'M SURE WITH PRACTICE [Y/N] COULD BE GREAT AT BASKETBALL." Offending much. You knew that he was trying to defend you though, and you couldn't stay mad at him. "She's had years to try! She sucked back then, and she still sucks now." Ethan crossed his arms. Papyrus looked like he was going to lose it on Ethan, eyes narrowing as he huffed. "Human. I don't really like the way your disrespecting your sister. Please apologize." A horn honked before Ethan could talk back and you all jumped. "Dads home! Out of the driveway guys." You were already moving to the grass. Papyrus blinked and followed with your siblings not far behind. Your dad pulled in. "What's this, a party?"
"Meh. A couple of friends came over." Dad had THAT look on his face. "Do you have a-"
"Dad meet Papyrus, Pap meet my dad."

You went inside to let them get acquainted. Ethan followed. "Sorry." You quirked a brow. "What for?"
"Saying that you suck."
"I'm not the best at basketball, but it's not nice. What made you think to apologize?"
"Uh.. Papyrus can be surprisingly scary. Aaaand I realized I was in the wrong. I really am sorry." You ruffled his hair. "No problem kiddo. I hope that dad's going easy on Pap.."

Papyrus POV


I watched [Y/N] and Ethan go inside. Oliver was talking to their father about a school project. Should I follow? I took a step towards the house. "Hang on, Papyrus." I stopped, nervousness forming a nonexistent knot in my nonexistent stomach. "Go get started champ. I'd like to talk to Mr. Papyrus."
"Ok dad!" Oliver ran to the house. "Yes..?"
"Are you dating my daughter?" Blunt much. "Yes. I did go on a date with your daughter."
"What happened."
"Well.. we went to the college, I made her spaghetti, she took me to Olive Garden, I had spaghetti, then I dropped her off at home."
"That's all?"
"That's all." Her father whined. "Not even a kiss?" I went tangerine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought about it. "Not.. yet." He perked. "Soon?"
"I don't- WAIT DO YOU WANT US TO KISS?!"
"YES! [Y/N] has never had a boyfriend before! I want her to find love, live a good life! Her and Kyle both! She's just.. simpler.."
"Because of Kyle's compromised immune system." He nodded. "If you do take that step.. take care of her?" That, I could definitely do. "I WILL PROTECT HER WITH MY LIFE, YOU HAVE MY WORD." He nodded and smiled. "Good. Come on in, Papyrus."

Your POV


Sans and Kyle was still in Kyle's room. Ethan went to play video games. Oliver was waiting on dad. You were waiting on Papyrus and your dad. Finally they came in and Pap was smiling. Thank the stars. "Oh, Kyle does have a boyfriend. They are in his room right now."
"WHAT! I GOTTA SEE-" Your dad scrambled off. "Sans is doomed."
"Nah." You glanced at Pap. "What'd he say?"
"He wants us to be together." You faced him fully. "Really? I thought he'd be like the parents in every TV show ever. Totally utterly against it."
"He said he wants you to be happy. To find love." You pondered that. "Well.. I think I did.." You went up to Papyrus and hugged him. He hugged back, bending down to nuzzle into the crook of your neck. You nuzzled into his scarf. So comfy. "I think I did too.." He whispered into your neck, breath warm against your [S/C] skin. How do skeletons breathe? He rumbled quietly. "Hm?" He moved his head and raised your chin to face him. "Can I kiss you..?" You nodded, soul pounding. Was this really happening?! The gap closed between the two of them.. you heard a camera, ruining the mood. You both glowered at whoever it was. Your dad froze, phone raised as he took a picture. "Uh.."
"DAD!!" You blushed. Papyrus growled. Your dad bolted. "I'm sorry Papyrus.." He sighed. "Sans and I should probably get going.. school."
"Um.. should we pick up on that another time..?" He smiled. "Definitely."

Papyrus POV


"I almost did it." Sans opened a socket as I stayed focused on the road. "I almost kissed her."
"nice. what stopped ya?" I growled. "Her father."
"oh.. i get that. call it payback for tellin him about kyle and i."
"S-sorry.. will you tell him?"
"tell him?"
"about your.. genetics." This gave Sans pause. "i.. don't know.. never really thought that far ahead."
"I want to tell her."
"i.. just.. only if your absolutely sure she's the one." I nodded. I was sure.. but.. how do I tell her?

Your POV


"Sorry. That was just so cute! You should have kissed him!" Your dad chirped. "I was gonna! You interrupted!" You were actually going to kiss him.. you went cherry. You and Papyrus were gonna.. "We were actually going to kiss.. I'm.. I.. wow."
"Surprising, isn't it?"
"I never thought I'd fall for anyone.."
"Next time you have the chance, take it." Your dad smiled. "I'm off to help your brother-"
"Sibling."
"Sibling with his- their- homework. That's gonna take some getting used to."
"You'll get it."
"And you'll get that kiss."
