As soon as Joey left my room I ran to the bathroom and took a shower. I cried as I scrubbed my skin raw. I ended up throwing up in the shower, it wasn't much due to me practically starving myself. I don't know how long I was in there but when I turned off the water I felt so out of my body that everything felt foreign to me.

I slowly walked to my room dripping wet. I grabbed a pair of scissors and cut my hair without thinking. It didn't even feel like it was me who did it.

I brushed my hair and threw on clothes and grabbed my phone. I think I called someone, I just don't remember who. I threw clothes into a bag and walked out of the house ignoring voices.

I found myself outside of my house. I don't even remember walking outside. Suddenly Mickey and Oswald were around me.

"Bendy!" Oswald yelled scaring me

"Huh? What?" I looked around, I was still standing outside with a bag of clothes in my hand

"There you are. Are you okay?" He asked me

"I... I think. I don't know... I need to leave." I muttered

They guided me to the car and Mickey made sure that I was buckled up. I don't know why he did that to me. He didn't... He just touched me. He didn't stop even after I begged him to and when I started crying. He only stopped when he felt like it.

"Bendy?" I jumped when I heard Mickey call me, "What happened?"

"He... He touched me." I whispered

"He fucking did what?!" Oswald yelled turning to me

"He didn't you know... Do that. He just touched me... He didn't stop." I said feeling tears fill my eyes

The car stopped and I got out of the car. My legs felt wobbly and I leaned up against the side of the car.

Oswald walked over to me and picked me up bridal style and carried me inside of the house. He laid me down on the couch.

"Do you need anything?" Mickey asked me

"No..." I said curling in on myself

Oswald placed a hand on my forehead, "He's burning up. He has a fever."

Mickey joined him and also placed a hand on my forehead, "How long have you been sick?"

"I don't know..." I said closing my eyes

I heard one of them sigh. Then a blanket was placed on me, it was warm and fuzzy.

"I didn't want to bring it up but his hair... Do you think that Joey cut it?" That was Oswald

"I don't think he did. With the way he's been acting, I think he cut his own hair." Mickey told him

"Listen I'll stay home with him tomorrow. You can head to school and get Felix and then come back." Oswald told him, "Skip day for us."

"You sure?"

"Yeah... I'll text Felix the plan."

It was silent for a moment until Mickey spoke, "Bendy, did you cut you're hair?"

"I think so." I muttered

"Damn, he must've been really out of it then." Oswald whispered, but I still heard him due to how close he was to me

There was silence again. There was just background noise that soothed me to sleep.

...

"He sleeps like a baby." I heard laughter

"He does. It's honestly cute." Another voice followed by laughter

I slowly opened my eyes and found myself on Mickey's couch. I was about to sit up, but someone kept me from doing so.

"No way bud. You're still sick." It was Oswald

"I'm sick?" I asked him, "I don't feel like I am."

"Well you are. Mickey is making you something to eat." He told me, "And yes you are going to eat it. I will feed you if I have to."

I frowned, "How long was I asleep?"

"For roughly half a day. It was around maybe 6pm when you got here and right now it's a little past 12." Oswald told me

"You know you sleep like a baby." Felix told me walking over to poke my cheek

"Can I please sit up?" I begged

"Let him." Mickey said from the kitchen

Oswald rolled his eyes and allowed me to sit up. Felix gasped and started to play with my hair.

"What happened? It's uneven as fuck!" He practically whined

"Joey did something to him which caused him to dissociate hard. He cut his hair, he doesn't even remember doing it." Oswald explained

"I cut my hair!" I screamed and felt it, "Joey is going to kill me!"

"Hey, it's okay." Oswald told me, "He saw you as we were getting you. He told us to keep you until you can function like a normal human being."

"He also threw something at you and you didn't even react. It was honestly scary." Mickey added

"I must've scared Boris." I sighed

"We didn't see him and knowing Joey, he wouldn't have done that if Boris was around." Oswald told me

"True." I muttered, "God I feel like throwing up."

Mickey finally walked out of the kitchen with a bowl on a small tv tray, "Careful it's hot, in both ways."

He sat it down on my lap and I just stared at it.

"I'm going to force feed you." Oswald lightly threatened me with a smile

I picked up the spoon and scooped up some of the broth and ate it. Mickey wasn't lying when he said that it was hot, and he ment it. It didn't burn my tongue temperature wise, it burnt my tongue spice wise.

"It's too spicy." I coughed

"I barely added any spicy." Mickey told me

"Dude stop acting like an up north white person and eat the soup." Felix told me

"Says the British person." I joked eating more of the soup

"Hey! I'm happy to be British mind you! The queen is my icon, I strive to be like her!" Felix said proudly

"How old is Queen Elizabeth?" Oswald asked

"I don't know. All I know is that she's ancient as hell." Mickey laughed

"Oh did you know that she once cut a cake with a sword?" Felix pointed out

"Okay yup, I want to be that level of insane when I get old as fuck." Oswald smiled

I stopped eating after my third bite hoping that no one would notice, but they did. Oswald picked up the spoon and proceeded to feed me until the bowl was empty.

"Get some rest, B. We'll wake you up when it's dinner time." Mickey told me grabbing the tray along with the bowl

"Yeah, we'll try to be quiet." Felix said laying across the love seat and getting his phone out

I nod and laid back down on the couch and closed my eyes. I'm so grateful to have these three as my friends and my second family.
