Freddy watched as Gregory walked towards the small stage at the end of the ice cream parlor. As many memories as this place brought back, the most were made here. Bonnie's stage. Yet another memory played in his head, and as much as he wanted to push it away, he couldn't bring himself to.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Bonnie shoved a microphone into Freddy's face with pleading eyes.
"What?" Freddy mumbled, confused. Bonnie dramatically sighed.
"Did you not listen to our ENTIRE conversation?"
"Oh, um, I did not. Apologies, Bonnie, I was... distracted." Freddy excused himself, looking everywhere except Bonnie. A smirk grew on Bonnie's face.
"Oh? Am I THAT much of a distraction?~" Bonnie raised an eyebrow and put the back of his hand under his chin.
"I- erm- eh-" Freddy stammered. He felt his face going red as his AI scrambled to think of an answer.
No?
Yes?
No?
Maybe?
"Hah! Aw, c'mon, big guy, no need to get so flustered!" Bonnie laughed, punching him playfully. "Anywho, I was askin' ya if you wanted to do a... duet tomorrow. Ya know, for the kids." He looked away sheepishly, rubbing his arm. "I just figured, considering we're like, the two originals- well, the kids wouldn't know anyway, unless they're like, super-fans or something- But you don't have to if you don't want to! It's just a suggest-"
"O-Of course, Bonnie!" Freddy smiled, blushing. He thought Bonnie's occasional rambling was endearing. When Bonnie smiled back, he could've sworn he saw a faint pink being painted across his face.
"Cool. Um, I'm free to practice... I mean, if you want." Freddy nodded to this and took the microphone in his hand, their hands touching for just a second. Freddy watched as Bonnie gracefully ducked down to get his bass, and when he got back up he was lost in thought for a moment. He then started playing a fast, upbeat melody, and Freddy knew exactly what song it was. He played for about seven seconds, then Freddy started singing.
"There's no way to say this song's about someone else~ Every time you're not in my arms I start to lose myself~" He sang quickly, glancing over at Bonnie before closing his eyes. "Someone please pass my my shades~ Don't let let 'em see me down~ You have taken over my days, so tonight I'm goin' out~!" He opened his eyes to realize Bonnie was standing next to him, smiling brighter than the sun.
"Yet, I'm feelin' like~" Bonnie started singing along, his voice flowing with Freddy's. "There is no better place than right by your side~ I had a little taste and I'll only spoil the party anyway~ 'Cause all the girls are lookin' fine, but you're the only one on my mind~" He started swaying with the music, noticing Bonnie was as well.
"La da dee, la da da doo, la da da me, la da da you~ La da dee, la da da doo, there's only me, there's only you~ La da dee, la da da doo, when you were gone I'd think of you~" Bonnie nudged Freddy's arm, smiling up at him. He returned the gesture, and stopped singing. Partly because he wanted to give Bonnie a turn, but partly because he just wanted to hear Bonnie's singing voice.
"All these places packed with people, but your face is all I see~ And the music's way too loud, but your voice won't let me be~ So many pretty girls around, they're just dressin' to impress~ But the thought of you alone has got me spun and I don't know what to say next!"
"Yet I'm feelin' like-" His voice overlapped with the rabbit's, and as much as he loved hearing Bonnie sing, he couldn't help but give it his all. After all, what other time were they going to be able to do a duet?
"-there is no better place than right by your side~ I had a little taste and I'll only spoil the party anyway~ 'Cause all the girls are lookin' fine, but you're the only one on my mind~" Their eyes met, and Freddy watched as Bonnie's eyes sparkled, with what he didn't know.
One, two, three!
"La da dee, la da da doo, la da da me, la da da you~! La da dee, la da da doo, there's only me, there's only you~! La da dee, la da da doo, la da da me, la da da you~! La da dee, la da da doo, there's only me, there's only you~! La da dee, la da da doo, when you were gone I'd think of you~"
"I'll pretend the night is so beautiful~ Take a photo with the bros, la da dee, la da da doo~"
"They won't see through my disguise~!" Freddy sang.
"Right here behind my eyes~!" Bonnie's voice came. They joined together for the next verse.
"Replaying in my mind, la da da~!"
(A/N: Look up the lyrics, Bonnie sings the ones in parentheses and if you listen to it, he sings the ones with a different pitch (if that makes sense))
"Yet I'm feelin' like~! There is no better place than right by your side~! I had a little taste and I'll only spoil the party anyway~! 'Cause all the girls are lookin' fine, but you're the only one on my mind~!"
"La da dee, la da da doo, la da da me, la da da you~! La da dee, la da da doo, there's only me, there's only you~! La da dee, la da da doo, la da da me, la da da you~! La da dee, la da da doo, there's only me, there's only you~! La da dee, la da da doo, when you were gone I'd think of you~! La da dee, la da da doo, la da da me, la da da you~! La da dee, la da da doo, there's only me, there's only you~! La da dee, la da da doo, la da da me, la da da you~! La da dee, la da da doo, there's only me, there's only you~! La da dee, la da da doo-" Bonnie stopped again, leaving Freddy to sing the last part.
"When you were gone I'd think of you~"

Freddy felt his eyes tear up as he looked to the ground, and he wiped them away quickly before Gregory could see. Gregory led Freddy to the stage as the boy searched around for anything that could help him. Freddy sighed and looked down.
"I... do not come up here anymore..." He mumbled to himself. "I miss him..." A tear slid down his face, and he forced himself to wipe it before Gregory saw.
"Who?" Startled, Freddy looked down at the young boy, who had apparently heard him.
"Oh- Um, nobody, Gregory. Let us get the Monty Mystery Mix from the back rooms now." He shooed him away, stealing one last glance at the the stage before heading into a small door after Gregory.
