You're Not Here

Chapter 1

No One's Pov:

The door slammed shut. Everyone looked up from the table to see Bendy stagger into the kitchen. "If B-Borissss was heeere, he'd be all worrsied 'bout me! But he ain't, so whatssit matter?" Felix sighed,"Bendy, Boris would be very upset to see you like this. I-it already hurts us enou-" "SHUT UP, YOU STUPID CAT! You have no idea how I feel! And how could you know how Boris'd feel 'bout me?!" Cuphead jumped up and grabbed Bendy's hands."Bends, look at me! I know exactly how you feel. You're the one who kept me from taking my life, remember?" Bendy looked at him, then nodded. "I remember. You said you was a murderer...If anybody deserved to see their brother die, it's me." Bendy ha tears in his eyes."No, Bendy! That's not true! You didn't deserve this! You loved your brother and showed better than any of us ever could! P-please  don't say that." Cuphead's eyes had tears in them too. Bendy nodded, then passed out.  

Bendy's Pov:

Bendy woke up feeling pretty good, despite the hang over. He nearly ran down the stairs and bounded into the kitchen. "Morning!" Everyone looked at him as if he'd never said it before. "What's wrong?" Then it hit him. The blood, his brother screaming in pain, the last words said to him. "Oh, r-right. Oh, god." Tears sprung to his eyes as he began close back up. Cuphead jumped up and ran to him."H-hey! Bends, don't think about that! Hey, I know something that'll cheer you up! We found some of Boris's stuff." Bendy looked past Cuphead's shoulder and saw Boris's bag and bandanna on the floor next to his spot. Slowly, he made his way to the bag and opened one of the pockets and peeked in. "Hey, I remember this! I spent two weeks on it. I made it for Boris's sixth birthday. It's pretty old." Bendy smiled at the memory. The object was a worn-looking Mickey Mouse doll. Some of the seams were torn, there was a tear in its ear, and the tail was all but gone. Bendy set the doll on the table and continued digging through Boris's things.

Cuphead's Pov:

It's so nice to see him look happy. I haven't seen him like this in so long. Next, Bendy pulled out an old camera, the kind were the pictures come out directly after you take them. On the the bottom were the initials B.W. "Boris Wolf?" Cuphead asked curiously. Bendy nodded and smiled sadly. "Y-yeah. H-he loved this old thing. He's a-always take w-way too many pictures with it. W-we always..." Bendy's body trembled and tears streamed down his eyes. Oh, on! Please, Bendy! You were starting to come back! Cuphead tried desperately to change the subject. "H-hey! How about we all take a picture together?" Bendy looked up at him and smiled,"T-that sounds like fun!" The others looked at Cuphead and smiled. Everyone stood by each other. Donald, who was holding the camera, started talking to Bendy."Um, kid? Your head's not even in the frame. Bendy jumped up and down, desperately trying to reach the lens. It's no use. He's just too short. Then, he got an idea. I hope he doesn't hate me for this. Cuphead grabbed Bend around the waist and hoisted him on to his shoulder. Bendy blushed deeply out of embarrassment, then laughed and ruffled Cuphead's hair. "Alright, say 'cheese'." "Cheese!" The camera flashed and the picture came out. Everyone gathered around it to see how it looked. Everyone started snickering and Cuphead wished he could disappear. There, in the far right corner with Bendy on his shoulder, was a deeply-blushing Cup." Aw, Cuppy! You look so cute!" Cuphead looked at Bendy and again blushed. D-did he just call me "C-Cuppy"? Bendy must've realized what he had said be cause he jumped an nearly yelled."I-I m-meant C-Cuphead! I meant Cuphead!!! Everyone laughed.
