An Inkwell's Stain //BATDR Fanfiction\\ [Male Reader]

Chapter Thirty-Six (1/2): [I Promise]

Bendy's face had grown cold, with his face no longer stained by your handprint, but you still held onto him dearly. 

'I am so sorry...' you mumbled repetitively, holding him tightly in your arms as his eyes were closed. His breathing was slow, and he was conscious, but he was resting. He deserved it.

It wasn't your fault, Y/N... thank you.

'Bendy?' you asked staring at his face with hot tears still springing from your eyes. His tired face looked at you, listening. 'I promise, from the bottom of my heart, that I will protect you. Never again will I let you go through pain alone. I promise this...' you sniffled and wiped your eyes, hating that you were crying... 

Big boys don't cry- boys don't cry.

Y/N...

'And-' you were stuttering now, your breathing fast as your heart pounded. You wiped even more aggressively at your eyes. 'And I won't ever be mean to you as the Ink Demon, I understand now, I-'

Y/N. Listen to me.

You stopped and closed your eyes, focusing what he had to say. He moved around slightly, getting into a sitting position off of you, and you reluctantly let go of him.

I don't care what you say to me as the Ink Demon, I won't take it to heart... I can't really.

You smiled and wiped your eyes, and he let out a whistling sigh.

And that promise... I promise that too... I will do whatever to takes not to...

You already were, Bendy.

You lean forward and hug him again, feeling his heart lighten as yours did too. A relationship was obviously stronger between you two. 

A bond. 

A strong bond between Angel and Demon; saviour and foe. You held on like you wouldn't ever let go.

(This was just a simple little add-on because I wanted a bonding moment. This will most likely be my last for for a while now, as I will be a bit busy for the rest of today. Thank you all!)
