You were watching over bendy.
Making sure the small cartoon didn’t suddenly run off or hurt himself as he played with his toys you and Sammy managed to find around this inky labyrinthine, that happened a couple of days after you two found bendy or Sammy’s “lord”
Sammy insisted we find another toy train to please him after bendy broke his last one, and safe to say the little demon cheered right up at the mention of a new toy to play with, and he got more then a new train,
building blocks, a duck you pull on string, and a Boris plush, a bit dangerous to carry around so much useless stuff, but whatever makes the little grinning demon happy you guess,
…..you wished Sammy was here right now, even if he would spend most of his time trying to please bendy, like he really was some god, and perhaps the ink demon is some kinda god in this world, but bendy, no, i mean all you saw right now was some silly cartoon kid, not the ink demon wherever that thing went, you just hoped one day Sammy will see things the way you do-
you felt the train hit your foot, pulling you out of your head, bendy was giving you a curious look, you looked back at the train, picking it up, you felt the details on it, looking between him and the train, you sighed, you might as well entertain him, you moved on your knees, pushing the train back to bendy, seeing him grin as you went over to play with him,
”now what are we doing here?” You said quietly, picking up the boris plush, you made him walk over to the train, you looked at bendy,
”does he need a ticket?” You asked, bendy thought for a bit before nodding his head, grabbing some paper form the ground and quickly drawing on it and carefully ripping it off,
you cleared your throat,
”can I have one ticket please” you said in a deep voice, bendy nodded, you handled him one of the useless coins you guys found around the area and he gave you or boris the ticket, you put Boris on the train and bendy put his hand on plushie Boris pushing the train forward,
“and we’re off” you said, bendy went around the building blocks he stacked on top of each other and circled around the wooden duck, he looked at you, and then circled around you too, you let out a small chuckle at that,
you jumped hearing a knock beside you, and quickly looked to see what caused it, calming down one you saw Sammy standing there
“I hope I didn’t keep you two waiting long” he said worry in his voice,
you grinned up at him getting up
“not too long no” you hugged him, feeling the ink form your skin merge into each other a bit, times like this is when you were thankful your body was more solid then Sammy’s,
Sammy hugged you back, before letting go
Taking a step back you looked at bendy, he was just standing there not sure what to do,
Sammy slowly moved towards him,
“my lord” he began and crouched down in front of him putting his axe down beside him, to not hold it at bendy
”I think I found something you will like” he said,
“something fun”
now you were curious about this as well, Sammy just before leaving saying that he was off to find something important, something fun. you were not sure what this fun was, as you didn’t think this was worth Sammy still potentially dying and forgetting about you, now that was just a horrific thought,
but he reassured that I should rest easy as he would only be gone for awhile, and that it was not that far away last time he remembered, and so by his request you stayed and looked after bendy, finally resting easy knowing Sammy’s ok,
bendy tilted his head at Sammy, before grinning again, bendy has accepted his offer,
you begin to pack up the toys with the help of bendy of course, putting them in your bag, with your other stuff and pulling it over your shoulder, sammy looked out the doorway axe in hand, making sure it was still safe,
and so you both began fallowing Sammy, he marked the area to go with his axe, and at some point thought the walk, you were holding bendy hand to make sure he didn’t wandered off to look at something again,
then at last Sammy stopped in font of a door, you noticed that the handle to it has been broken off, he put his hand on the door, turning to you both,
“are you ready to see it?” He asked, you both nodded, then Sammy pushed open the door, and when you and bendy walked in, your eyes lit up seeing it was a arcade room, bendy hopped up and down, breaking off form your hand and going to look at the games that were here,
“Are you pleased my lord?” Sammy asked his hands intertwined, bendy nodded his head, you turned to Sammy,
”Sammy how did you find this place?” You asked, did he know of this place before you two met, or did he find it just recently, if so he would have told you before bendy right?,
”I heard of this place by a dear useful sheep, though I didn’t actually know if it was here or not, but I am glad that it is, and by finding this our lord is happy,”
you nod along to what he said, ahh so it was one of the searchers that told him, that made sense,
Sammy pulled a coin out of his pocket,
”now shall we begin with the games?” Sammy’s asked, you smiled
“yes definitely”
——————-
you and bendy took turns at the butcher bash, it was very satisfying to swing a mallet on them given how many times they almost costed yous and Sammy’s life, after you were done, you gave the mallet to bendy, watching as he put a coin in, and jumping up to hit them with it,
you turned to Sammy, he was working the Craw machine, or trying too, the toys just kept on slipping though it,
“having trouble?” You asked lightly leaning on him, he humms,
”just a little” he says trying again before failing, he looks down, you giggle at that, you pat him on the back, “it’s ok here I’ll win one for you” your hand travels down to his arm giving it a squeeze, before taking over for him,
you put in a coin, and move the claw machine around looking at the toys on top of the clutter of paper Sammy has managed to drag up, none of them catching your eye, you already had a Boris plush and a life size bendy, and you did not need an angel, so you went for the ghost girl, the claw machine going down and clutching around her head,
you let out a huff in Triumph,
”see Sammy always go for the hea-“ when the doll fell the big head of it landed outside of the hole it was supposed to drop in, the head dragging it down, Sammy lets out a snort, putting his hand up to his mouth behind the mask, he was giggling, you turn your gaze at him, forgetting about the plush and staring at him,
he looks at you, “what?” He asks curious,
“nothing” you say
“I just like your laugh” you go a bit quiet “you have a nice laugh” you say, looking at your feet,
Sammy as much as his body language allows seems taken back, great now you felt stupid, not about saying it, but because after all this time together, you still felt shy saying things like this to him,
he pointed to himself, “I do?” He asks, wanting to know if that’s what you really think
you nod your head, “like music to my ears” you grin at him, you both stare at each other, feeling a bit at peace, in this inky prison,
you both quickly snapped out of it, once hearing a loud clap, you both looked down at bendy, he had his arms crossed tapping his feet, looking between you both with an inpatient look, Sammy spoke right away,
”ah! What is it you need my lord?!”
he got down on his knees with his hands intertwined, you sighed at this, you didn’t believe bandy could set you free like Sammy did, but you believed in Sammy, so you fallowed,
bendy looked alarmed at Sammy, so you couched down a bit, and spoke softly, “is there anything you need bendy?”
bendy looked up at you, and frowned patting his pockets, oh more coins, you and Sammy glanced at each other, you going through your bag and getting some coins out, handing them to him, he grinned,
”uh do you want to try the claw machine now?” You asked
———————-
hours went by or at least you think it did down here, going between bowling darts butcher bash and the claw machine, by now bendy was resting on the bench that was in the room as well, holding onto the ghost girl plush he managed to win after trying the claw machine, and you wondered if you would have to carry that too, as he was laying down you and Sammy sat on ether side of him,
you lightly patted bendy head, he shook his head, before settling,
you broke the silence, “I’m glad you managed to find this place Sammy, it was fun”
you kept your gaze to the door you all came form, Sammy hummed, you could listen to him hum all day,
”it was, and I think…for a second I almost felt.. normal” he said, you let out a little laugh,
“I felt the same” you brought your gaze at him, “like we were our own again, whatever that may be”
you turn your gaze to bendy, “now what will we do, do we head back later” you looked over to Sammy seeing him looking at you too
”yes we shall let our lord rest for now, and then we shall head back to the music department” Sammy spoke calmly and you nodded, knowing it was the best,
you sigh closing your eyes, feeling a bit tired yourself, perhaps you could have a sleep as well, letting out a yawn you looked at Sammy, he was standing up, axe in hand,
”rest now sheep, for in the morning you will wake”
