Aughhhh! We're sorry we're behind! I hope we don't have to worry about it for the next chapter as we're working on it right now. We've been trying to figure out how to order some scenes that we have ideas for and it's a bit confusing, but we're working on it! :)
Thanks for your patience, and we hope you enjoy this chapter! :)

"What do you mean, 'dinner'?" Riley frowned. "We have spaghetti night every week."
"I thought it w-would be fun to go out t-tomorrow n-night to a n-nice restaurant, just us adults." Alphys sighed.
"So… Me, you, Undyne, Toriel, Sans, Asgore, and Papyrus?"
"Yeah."
"I guess." Riley shrugged, though she knew Alphys couldn't see her over the phone. "Sounds good to me. Where are we going?"
"That really f-fancy French r-restaurant on sixth."
"Woah. Why there?!" Riley gasped.
"Umm… 'cause we're c-celebrating Undyne and m-my wedding. It's… an after party. S-sort of. To thank all of y-you for helping s-so much… I g-guess." Undyne shouted something in the background. "Sorry. I mean, it really is for y-you guys. It's part of our th-thank you gift."
"Alright. Well, it sounds fun." Riley smiled.
"M-make sure to d-dress nice. The r-restaurant has a d-dress code." Alphys said.
"Alright. I guess so."
"I'll s-see you there at s-seven! Just ask f-for the table r-reserved under 'SR'."
"What does SR stand for?" Riley frowned.
"Uhhh… special reception." Alphys muttered quickly. "Anyways! Gotta go!"
"Wait, but! Alphys-" The call went dead. Damn. Riley set her phone down with a sigh and returned to her coffee. Well, it would be interesting to see what Alphys and Undyne had in plan for them all.
"Aaaannddd…. Voila! Your arm is free!" Dr. Brookes grinned.
"Yes!" Frankie smiled, looking up Sans excitedly.
"Now, Frank. You haven't bent your arm in… a long time. So, it's gonna be sore at first. Alright?" Dr. Brookes said.
"O-okay…" Frankie was nervous.
"It's alright, kiddo. Why don't ya go ahead and try it?" Sans said. Frankie looked up at his dad's encouraging smile and nodded slowly. He takes a deep breath and slowly bent his arm a bit.
"Ow!" He gasped.
"It's alright, Frankie. It's gonna hurt a little bit." Dr. Brookes nodded.
"It hurts a lot!" Frankie cried.
"It'll feel much better soon, kid." Sans said. "I promise. Right, doc?"
"Yes. You just need to move it around for a while and it'll feel as good as new!" Dr. Brookes said with a smile.
"O-okay! I'll try."
"Alright! You're doing great, Frankie." Sans nodded. Frankie moved his arm again, slowly. It was very sore, but he was getting used to it a little bit.
"I think it's getting better."
"Great! Looking at the bone it seems that it's healed perfectly." Dr. Brookes said. "So, you're free to go!"
"Thanks so much, Doc." Sans said.
"Just doing my job." The doctor said.
After they were done at the clinic, Sans took Frankie to go buy some new clothes. He had only bought a few outfits with Toriel, and that was a while ago. He needed more than what he had.
"Alright. We're gonna get some t-shirts right, and some shorts for summer?" Sans frowned.
"Yup!"
"And…? Pajamas?"
"Yup!" Frankie nodded.
"And…? What else?"
"Jeans."
"Jeans." Sans sighed. "Alright. Anything else?"
"Mmm…. ooh! Look at that!" Frankie pointed to the window of one of the shops they were passing. It had bright lights, and vibrant colors. A toy store. "Can I get that car, Sans? Please?! It's so cool!"
"Well…."
"Pleasseee?!"
"Well… maybe. Let's see how much we spend at the clothes store, okay?" Sans chuckled.
"Alright…" Frankie sighed. The clothes store was just a few minutes from the toys. They were there pretty fast and Frankie happily began looking through the clothes. He found a pretty good pair of shorts, and a couple awesome t-shirts. It was just as he was heading to the jean aisle that something caught his eye in the aisle with all the jackets.
He had to rush over to it and pull it out, just to be sure that he wasn't seeing things. It was Sans' coat. Sans' coat! But yellow- his favorite color!
"Oh my god."
"What'd you find there, Frank?" Sans said from behind him.
"SANS! LOOK! It's your coat, but it's my favorite color!"
"Oh my god… wow." Sans actually laughed. "Kid, that's amazing."
"Can I get it?! It's a little big, but…" Frankie pulled the coat on and grinned up at Sans.
"Looks good to me!" Sans grinned.
"I look just like you, Dad! It's so awesome!" Frankie cried. "I love this coat! Can I please get it dad?! Pleassseeee!?"
"I don't see any reason why not." Sans chuckled.
"Yes! Now I can be just like you! When I grow up, I want to be just like you, Dad! You're so awesome!" Frankie hugged Sans tightly, giggling. "This is the bestest coat in the whole wide world! I can't wait to show Frisk!"
There was a knock at the door. Sans was sitting on the couch, watching TV.
"Hold on." He says, pausing the TV. The knock came again, this time louder.
"Hold on!" He repeats a little louder as he walks over to the door, which bursts open with immense force just as he reaches for the handle. It's quite literally knocked off the hinges, and Sans has to teleport a few feet away in order to dodge it,
"What the hell-" Undyne rushes in, a wild look in her yellow eye,
"LISTEN UP, PUNK! I KNOW YOU LIKE RILEY AND YOU'RE GONNA TELL HER YOU LIKE HER!" The aggressive fish woman shouts, her yellow teeth bared in a huge grin. Sans' face immediately turns blue.
"I don't like-"
"YES YOU DO, SHUT UP!" Undyne crows, punching Sans in the shoulder.
"Ow- No. I don't…" Yes I do…
"Yes you do! I see the way you look at her!" Undyne screeches, Sans sighs. It wouldn't hurt to tell her… it's not like we're going to get together anyways...
"Promise you won't tell her anything…?" Undyne grins widely, and nods vigorously.
"Promise!"
"Alright… I… I like her. I like Riley. A lot. And-"
"I KNEW IT! FUHUHUH!" The fish monster's laugh echoes through the house, Sans winces.
"Don't tell anyone, alright?" He's suddenly worried that Undyne won't be able to keep her mouth shut.
"You HAVE to tell her!" She grins, Sans' eyes widen.
"What?! No- I… No way." Undyne narrows her eye.
"Why not?! You have to JUST DO IT!" Great, is Alphys showing her memes? Sans sighs,
"Look, I'm not the right guy for her. She can do a lot better than me…. I'd just be setting her back." Undyne frowns,
"I think you two would be ADORABLE together!" The fish woman beams, "And I'M NOT TAKING NO FOR AN ANSWER, PUNK!" She grabs the back of Sans' hood, pulling him towards the table with force. She sits him down and takes a seat across from him.
"PRETEND I'M RILEY AND ASK ME OUT, NERD!" She slams her fist on the table.
"No way that's-"
"DO IT!" she screams.
"Alright, alright. Fine. Fine." If it'll make her stop yelling… Undyne clears her throat, and mimics Riley's quiet voice as best as she can,
"Hi, Sans!" Okay. Nope.
"I can't do this- this is stupid." Sans rests his skull in his hands, shaking his head. You're right. You can't do this, Sans. You can't get attached to some human. She's not worth the pain after the reset. The voice speaks, coaxing him to take a different path.
"Yes you can, PUNK! Stop being a loser! YOU HAVE TO GO OUT THERE AND TELL HER HOW YOU FEEL! YOU CAN'T FEAR ANYTHING! FUHUHUH!" Undyne coaxes him back. He was torn. He really needs to tell Riley… he's almost done it a couple times now, but as soon as he's about to say something, he's interrupted. It's gotten quite annoying now. Screw it. I should say something, shouldn't I…? If I feel this way, I shouldn't be quiet about it. I should tell her. I'm going to tell her. I'm… no…. No…. I can't tell her. I'll set her back. I'm not the right guy for her…. Sans frowns,
"I can't… I can't tell her…" Undyne picks up on the serious tone of his voice, her grin drops. He gets up,
"I appreciate you trying to help, Undyne…. But I really can't." Undyne, surprisingly nods quietly.
"Alright… Fine. But… You'll come to the dinner me an' Alphys set up for everyone, right? Everyone's gonna be there! It's at that fancy French place downtown!"
"When?"
"Tomorrow! Fuhuhuh! It's gonna be fun!" Sans shrugs,
"Sure, don't see why not."
"AWESOME! Dress nicely! And reservation's under 'SR'!"
"Uh…. alright."
REVIEWS FOR CHAPTER TWENTY-SEVEN:
Ed's. Curious. Kitten: Well, after laughing hysterically for longer than I should have, I've made it my mission to get Sans' butt in gear! HELP ME OUT FRANKIE AND FRISK!
Hehe! I think most everyone's trying to help- especially undyne! After all, there's money at stake!
GaleForceSinger:
So.
Iro's gay
Can't say I saw that coming.
Well played.
Yes! Thanks! :D
StarBee24: *smacks Sans on the back of skull and glares at him*
WAKE UP SANS! GO TO YOUR HUMAN!
Reader99: Well that was embarrassing
Yessss... poor sans! :( It'll get better soon.
Guest F: Thank you very much for answering my question! Now I don't have to keep wondering if there will ever be a reset (sorry, I'm just used to reading tragedy fanfics... Not usually into romantic comedy, but you story caught my attention, AND I LOVE IT!)
Also, I really want to break the fourth wall right now, jump into your fanfic, sprint to Riley's apartment, and shout JUST DO IT! FOLLOW YOUR DREAMS, RILEY! YOU CAN ACHEIVE ANYTHING IF YOU JUST BELEIVE IN YOURSELF!
Awww! So glad you like it! :D
JUST... DO IT! *SCREAMS*
Anonymous: HA I KNEW SOMETHING WAS DIFFERENT ABOUT IRO HE'S FREAKIN GAY THAT'S PERFECT! I am very much looking forward to the next chapter! Will Sans finally confess? He had better…
Soon, guys, soon! So soon. Augh! I can't wait to post that chapter. It's super fun, you're all going to die because so much cute.
Guest: I LOVE THIS SOOOO MUCH! While reading this chapter, all I was thinking was "KISS KISS KISS!" But it never came. Thanks for being awesome!
Heheh! Thanks! We're so glad you like it! As for "Kiss!" Soon. Very soon.
Someguy: Ooohhh...is Iro the dragon royal guard? Like, 01 and 02? That makes sense. And yay! Iro's not in the way!
That's so clever! We didn't actually even think of it that way. Iro was an OC, but a few of you guys were saying something like this and it's a valid hypothesis.
Guest: I hope you have insurance. I broke my wall reading this.
Oh boy. Sorry. :0 hehe
SilerofWorlds: I'm glad you didn't make Iro into this huge focal point of drama and evilness. It just being a misunderstanding is much more realistic than what a lot of fanfiction tends to go for. Kudos, and, as always, keep up the amazing story.
Awesssommee! Thanks so much!
SecretKeeper626: Iro is #02, isn't he?
Definitely seems to be a popular train of thought. Makes sense too. Kudos to you all for thinking of it.
I guest as much: Great update! This whole frickin' update was beautiful. Sans was doing science things with Frankie and Iro was explaining the situation to him. I just love how peacefully the whole thing worked out, and it's actually kind of Iro-nic, with the person causing Sans the most problems also being the one to relieve him of the most worries. By the way, I just wanted to say that I've read all those comment reviews, and they are really entertaining. I've just wanted to say that for a little while.
Yes! Iro is no longer in the way. The only thing preventing Sans from telling Riley is... himself. So there's that! Anyways- I LOVE reviews. I love all of them. They always cheer me up they're soooo great!
I am Not Here: I only just realized iro is a dragon monster and not human...the entire time I thought he was human.
Oh! That's funny. Oh well. :)
SlowlyFallingApart: OMG Soooooooo beautiful! Sansely for life!
Aw... man, I thought I lost my feels long ago...
oh wait... WaIT...
THEY'RE STILL THERE!
Heck yeah! Sansley forever! :D
