BB x Marionette

Music Box

BB's POV

It seems, that someone actually took the job of the nightguard. I was very surprized to find out that someone dared to do it, considering, how dangerous it is here. He even seems to care about this job, which is even more puzzling. He came in earlier today to check on everyone, and even on me. Most of the gueards usually just hurry to their office and try not to make an eye contact with us... In some way, I don't even want him to die. It seems like he is so nice. But sadly, I have to do it. Others tell me to. Either way,I wait for him to leave to his office and swifly make my way to the prize corner. As I go, I wonder what are we gonna talk about with Marionette. Pizza? Balloons? The new guard? Or maybe I should tell him about my feelings. I blush slightly at the thought.

Nobody's POV

Balloon boy was thinking about this idea really hard. He did not even notice anything as he went on. As he entered the prize corner, in the back of his head he heard the soft music coming from the music box, but he could not care less. He wandered to it, in order to stop it, so Marionette would wake up. But he did not pay any attention to the distance between him and a table, where the box was standing. In the next second he stumbled on the table, and knocked it over, sending the fragile mechanism flying to the floor. He only realized what he has done, when it was too late. The tiny box was smashed to pieces. He gasped in shock and fear and got to his knees.
"Oh.. oh no" - he tried to piece the tiny pieces and gears together, but to no avail. He heard as if someone was moving in the box. In the next second, Marionette opend the lid and got up.
"Wh- What happened?" - he rubbed his eyes and streched - "Did something fell down?" - he looked down and saw the mess. It took him no time to figure out what happened - " Oh no... No! It can't be!"
"I-I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to! I..." - Balloon Boy started, but was cutt of by Marionette, who already flew out of his box.
"Y-you broke it..!" - he picked up the tiny pieces and looked at them in the despair - "W.. Why did you do it?"
"I'm sorry.."- he put his hand on his friend's shoulder
Marionette sobbed and shook BB's hand off of his shoulder - "How could you?"
"I can e-explain..."
"I.. I don't want to see you. Not now"
"What...?"
"I said, I want to be alone"
Balloon Boy was quiet for a second. He never saw his friend in such despair. He tried to calm him down.
"I-it's alright! We can fix it! It will..."
Marionette stood up from his broken music box. He was shaking a little.
"Go away." - tears were coming from his eyes
"But Mari..."
"I said, go away!" - he turned sharply to face BB. His eyes were lit up again - "Now!"
Balloon Boy was shocked, terrified and sad at the same time. He never saw usually calm marionette in this state of anger. He sobbed and quickly ran off. What have he done? Why was he so clumsy? He ran into one of the party rooms and just started crying. He did not know, how much time did he spend just crying his eyes out. He came to his sences, only when he heard footsteps behind him. BB jerked, quckly got up and looked at the intruder. Surprizingly, it was a nightguard, that checked on him earlier. The man was wearing Freddie's mask, so that nobody can really touch him.
"I saw what happened." - he crouched down before the robot boy - "I am sorry that this happened"
BB sobbed - "I-it's okay.. I.. I think" - he wiped the tears (or oil? do robots really cry?) from his eyes. Suddenly he got an idea "W-wait, if you saw what happened, then maybe you could help me? You humans do know, how to fix things"
"I'm sorry." - BB could hear regret in his voice - "I am not a great mechanic"
"But can you bring it someone who can?" -he look at the gurd with a plead. He had to do something.
It took a gurad a few moments to think of something "I think that I might know somebody who can fix it.."
Balloon Boy did not let him finish and hugged the night guard tight.
'Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you! I'll bring it to you right now! Wait here!" - And with a childish excitement he ran off, leaving the night guard wonder if this was out of the ordinary for the robots to have feelings or not.
As he arrived to the prize corner, Marionette was nowhere to be seen. But the box was there. And it seems, like it was a bit more broken then before. BB scooped the box in his hands and carefully carried them to the night guard
"Here you go." - he handed the little box to the guard - "Please be careful with it''
The guard nodded thoughtfully, and moved back to his office, holding the box tight. BB watched him leave, and then had to go back too. The night was already coming to an end.

~Next night~ Marionette's POV

I was trying to fall asleep, but it was an even harder task, then before. Knowing that my most favorite music will never be returned to me was crushing. Not only that, but I really hurt BB. I sighed and changed my position for the hundredth time. But then, I heard that slight knock on the lid on my box, that I heard almost every night. At first I did not want to greet my friend. But he started to knock more and more loudly. I sigh again and open the lid. I look out of the box and see Balloon Boy. It seems like he is holding something behind his back.
"Why are you here?" - I ask - "You should not..."
"Shush" - He grabs me by my shoulders, and lifts up from the box... Or... Tries at least. He is really short after all. I help him a little and rise up by myself.
"BB, please. You know that.."
He cuts me off again -"Don't even start" - and hands me a little white present box, gently wrapped with a red ribbon - "It's for you"
"What?" - I blink in surprise. This was unexpected. - "But why? I trated you so poorly yesterday."
"Open it." - he looks directly into my eyes and smiles - "You will love it"
I have no other choice. I unwrap the gift and look inside. To my surprize I find my beloved music box inside "Wh.. But how did you do it?" - I look at BB's round hands. There is no way he fixed it all by himself.
"Oh it was not me" - he looks away at the camera for a second - "You can thank our new night guard for this. I just wanted to say that I'm sorry and..". Now it's my turn to cut him off. I hug him tightly and lift him up in the air
"Oh BB. You don't need to be sorry. It's not your falt. But I do want to thank you. That music box means a lot to me"
"Oh, it's nothing." -he laughed nervously.
"But I have to apologise. I did not mean to lash out on you like this yesterday" - I stopp hugging him and just hold him in my arms. I think, I can see a slight blush on his cheeks. How cute.
"It is okay. I understand" - He smiles shyly as he holds on to my arms. I think, that he is afraid, that I would let go of him. I chuckle and put him on his feet

"So.. What would you like to do?" - I ask and slightly lift off his hat to pet his head.
He grabs my hand again and looks into my eyes. I can see the blush on hi cheeks getting redder and redder every second. "I... I want to tell you something."
"What is it?" - I crouch down before him. He looks so serious right now, I cannot hold back a chuckle.
"I...um...I...I..." - he statters and grips my hand tighter
"What are you trying to say?"
"I... I like you a lot!" - he averts his eyes, as if he said something bad
"Well, I like you too, BB"
"Y-you probably got it wrong... Okay..." -he lets out a heavy breath, as if trying to calm down "I really-really like you"
I stay silent for a second "Well, I think I got it wrong again"
He opens his eyes and looks at me with an embarresd and annoyed look "Why do I have to explain everything?" He graps my other hand a plants a fast kiss on my lips. 

I blink in complete shock "Wha-?"
He husgs me tightly "I love you, silly!"
It takes me a moment to get used to this thought. I hug him back "Oh, BB. I love you too" I slightly pat him on his back.
I can feel him sigh with relief. It did take him a lot of courage to do alll of this just for my sake. After a minute or so he gently lets go of me - "So.. maybe we should find something fun to do?"
I think for a while, and then it hits me - "What do you think about stargazing? The sky seems to be really clean tonight"
He smiles and nods. Chuckling, I get up and take him by his hand. We walk to a nearest window and look up at the starry sky. I sigh peacefully and hug him by the shoulder. So far, this is the best night in my whole life.
