Omg it's been too long o0o. Sorry for the lack of updates guys, I've been having computer problems for the past week );
Anyway enjoy the newest chapter~
To say Toriel was unhappy about the glitter pile on her floor was more of an understatement then saying monsters drabbled in magic. If she ever got her hands on that robot he would find himself with a vacuum in one hand and a duster in the other.
Those thoughts could be forgotten for now however, as the invitation clutched in her daughter's hand was far more important if Frisk's face was anything to go by.
The small human was staring with such excitement that it warmed Toriel's soul to watch her.
"I've been invited to a finalist banquet," Frisk spoke, her voice airy with excitement.
"Oh, that is wonderful, my child. Do you know what you will wear? Will you be going with Sans?"
Frisk's, the precious child, face was flushed pink at Sans's name.
"I-I don't know if I have anything to wear," Frisk admitted.
"Well I-,"
Bang
The thunderous knock at the door interrupted Toriel's sentence, drawing a slightly annoyed expression on the goat woman's face.
"I'll be back in a moment, my child," Toriel said as she headed towards the front door.
It was certainly a surprise to say the least to see Undyne standing outside her door, eyes trained on the phone clutched in her hand. Undyne seemed to realise that Toriel was now standing before her as a large and rather toothy grin spread across the fish monster's face.
"Hi Mrs D, how's it going?"
"You can just call me Toriel, dear. What can I help you with?"
Undyne peaked past Toriel, eyes searching for something that wasn't there, "I was wondering if Frisk was home."
"She is, would you like to come in?"
With a rather excited yes Undyne followed Toriel into the quiet little house.
Frisk had moved from her original position in the lounge room to see what the commotion was.
Undyne chuckled as she scooped Frisk into a hug (noogies were saved for the skeleton), "How ya going squirt? Heard you got invited to a Mettaton's Banquet, which is why I'm here. I've been invited as a plus one and thought it be a good idea to get something new to wear."
Excitement instantly made its way onto Frisk's face, "That would be awesome." Frisk turned to face Toriel, "Do you mind if I go dress shopping with Undyne, Mom?"
Reluctance filled Toriel as she stared at her daughter and the fish woman, "…Well, I actually…"
Sighing, Toriel resigned herself to an answer, "All right, My Child."
Frisk yelled out in excitement while Undyne fist pumped.
"Well let's go then squirt."
Frisk thought it was just her imagination at first, but by the tenth time it was obvious Undyne wasn't just checking her phone for kicks.
The fish woman was almost obsessive as she once again checked the device ever since they had left Toriel's house and arrived at the shopping centre.
'Why does she keep checking it? Is she expecting someone to call her?' Frisk wondered. 'Unless...'
"Undyne!" A quiet voice called out from in front of them.
Frisk turned to face a huddled yellow lizard monster.
"H-hey Alphys. I'm glad you were able to make it," Undyne said, her voice cracking with nerves though she appeared to be calm as always.
Alphys however was the opposite of calm. The poor female was a blushing bumbling mess.
"o-of course I would miss it for the world… I mean… uh… who's your friend?" She stuttered.
Undyne smiled and placed a hand on Frisk's shoulder, "This is Frisk. She's the human who dances with Sans."
It was as though a switch had been flicked, causing Alphys face to light up in recognition, "It's good to meet you Frisk. You're such a good dancer, it's amazing to watch you."
Frisk felt her face warm up in embarrassment, "T-thanks. I'm glad you enjoy watching me dance."
"Well, shall we go dress shopping then," Undyne intervened, saving Frisk from the wave of compliments.
Alphys was instantly an embarrassed mess again as she agreed and the three of them began to walk around the shopping centre.
As time passed and they visited each store Alphys became more comfortable, especially when they began to talk about anime and Frisk promised she'd join them for an anime night.
It became evident to Frisk very quickly that the two women were secretly glancing at each other whenever they got the chance to. It was almost amusing to watch the two as they remained oblivious to the blatant interest they had in each other.
'They'd make a cute couple,' Frisk thought as she watched them picking out a dress that might suit Alphys. Undyne was showering the smaller female in compliments while Alphys slowly overheated.
After a few hours Undyne and Alphys had both settled on their choices, but Frisk had still not found anything to wear.
"What about this one?" Undyne asked as she held up a green dress.
Frisk studied it before shaking her head, "No. It's not that right colour."
Undyne and Alphys shared a look before Undyne directed an amused expression in Frisk's direction.
"And what colour is the 'right colour'," She asked.
Frisk glanced at the rainbow dress rack as she felt her cheeks tingle.
"Blue… a deep blue."
A large smirk crawled along Undyne's face, "Ooh, trying to match with a certain someone are we?"
"I just like the colour," Frisk lied.
This made Undyne burst out in laughter, "Sure it does squirt, but I think we both know the real reason why. You know I'm pretty sure if you told Sans you liked him he'd be ecstatic."
Frisk glanced over at Alphys who had moved further away to try and find something that Frisk might like, "I could say the same about you."
Undyne raised an eyebrow before glancing at Alphys, a faint blush crawling across her features.
"Don't worry I won't tell her," Frisk promised, a soft smile gracing her lips. "But I think you should tell her."
"I plan to, at the banquet," Undyne admitted, her voice gentler then normal.
Smiling Frisk turned back to the clothes rack, "Well shall we continue looking?"
After a few more failed attempts the three women decided to call it a day. Undyne promised Frisk they would find the perfect dress next time as they dropped her off at the front of her house.
Waving goodbye Frisk entered the house. Toriel was cooking dinner and the smell of food wafted through the house.
"I'm home, Mom," She called.
Toriel appeared in the kitchen doorway, "How was the shopping trip, My Child? Did you find a dress?"
Frisk sighed as she shook her head.
Something undistinguishable flickered across Toriel's face, "Wait one moment. I have something I want to give to you."
Taking a seat at the dining table, Frisk waited as the goat woman hurried away before returning with a plain box in her arms.
"This was a gift I was given a long time ago… I wanted to give it to you. I can take it in if it is too big but I think it should fit," Toriel explained as she lay the box open before Frisk.
Lying in the box was a beautiful blue gown. Frisk gently took the garment in her hands, feeling the soft fabric against her skin.
It was a beautiful blue with small white jewels that made it sparkle in the light.
It was perfect.
Frisk gently lay the dress back into the box before hugging Toriel.
"Thank you so much, Mom," Frisk whispered as the goat woman engulfed her in a warm hug.
