Mechanical hearts (Foxy x Bonnie)

The Truth Comes Out

    I hear a faint voice talking in a low whisper as I slowly gain consciousness. The sight of the tools on the wall makes every muscle in my body snap tight as I quickly push myself off of the workbench. Confusingly, the surface of the table crushes inwardly like fabric as I press my hands into it. My leg instantly gives out from underneath me, but a pair of strong arms catch me before I have a chance to hit the ground. When my eyes finally focus, I see the silhouette of a tall rabbit standing over me. 

  I struggle frantically to get out of William's hold, knowing that he has changed his mind about what he will do to me. I thrash around violently in his grip, but instead of striking me, he grabs me by the shoulders and shakes me repeatedly. Suddenly I'm aware that the voice doesn't belong to Afton. I look up to see Bonnie's worried face, and suddenly everything seems like its going to be alright.

  "It's ok, your ok. Your safe now." he says softly while carefully lifting me back onto the bed.

  I was wrong about where I thought we were. This isn't a parts & service room, it's one of the spare bedrooms located somewhere in the back of the building. My line has been patched, and everything seems to still be working fine. He must have gotten to me before anything was badly damaged.

  "What happened? Why'd ya save me?"  I ask in a slurred jumble of words.

  "Why wouldn't I?" he asks with a sad look on his face.

  "You have to let me die! It's the only way I can fix this!  I start trying to claw the patch off with my nails, unable to use my hook since it's now missing. He firmly, but gently stops me with his soft hands.

   "Foxy, please calm down. Your not in the right state of mind right now" He says in a soothing voice "I'm so sorry that I haven't been talking to you. William gave strict instructions for us to not interact with you at all until you had your memory reset. I should have just ignored him."

   " ...Bonnie... can you please stay with me? I don't want to be alone right now."

  "Of course man, I'll stay here for as long as you like." He gives me a small hug as he says this, and I hesitate a moment before hugging him back. 

  "Thank you.. I-I'm sorry for worrying you.... Are.. are you okay?"

  "Am I okay?  Gosh Foxy, you should see yourself. I was scared half to death when I found you. I thought I was too late."

  "I didn't think that I mattered that much to you. I didn't think I mattered to anyone."

  "Don't say that dude, of course I care about you. We all do."

  He pulls me in again, and this time I'm completely enveloped in his warmth as he embraces me in a full hug. I'm not really sure how to respond to this, nobody's ever done anything like this with me before. I try to sit on my tail to keep it from wagging, but I can't stop myself from smiling. 

  "Thank you Bonnie, that means more than you could ever know. I don't know what I'd do without you." I say as I grip him tighter. "I love you..."

  I pull back from him as I turn away in embarrassment. I shouldn't have said that. Of course I would ruin this, I ruin everything. What is wrong with me? I force myself to look back at him and I see that his face has turned a deep shade of magenta. I wait for him to leave, but he remains standing at my side.

  "For sure dude, I love you too" He says while rubbing the back of his neck.

  Even though I know he's just saying that to be nice, I still feel a surge of happiness at his  words. We stay silent for a while before he speaks again.
