A Secret To Be Kept {Bendy x Cuphead}

××Chapter 17××

Bendy's P.O.V.

It's 9pm right now...and I only went out the room once to get into my clothes... Cuphead took care of me. But....I couldn't get my mind off the only reason why they pick on me...

They bullied because...I'm a demon...it's like segregation on Earth but...less of a slave...

°···...···...···°

I couldn't sleep the whole night............I sometimes would check the time on my phone.

1:34am...

3:09am...

4:47am...

6:29am...

Oh. The alarm should be off in a few seco-

BEEPBEEPBEEPBEEP.

BEEPBEEPBEEPBEEP.

BEEPBEEPBEEPBEE-

I dismissed my alarm and sighed. I started getting tired. Too late? I sat up and rubbed my eye. I got off the bed and headed towards the door.

I opened the door just to bump into someone. I was, suddenly, lifted up from the floor.

"E-Eh?!" I came face to face with none other than Cups- I expected it would be him after bumping into him. But, recalling the theory on how I don't smell like gasoline anymore, made me blush, mildly.

"Nnnnah...you're staying here...you're not going to prison- er, school.."

"W-Why not?" I stuttered.

"I don't want you getting hurt again."

"A-Ah..." I shifted my eyes somewhere else and he put me down.

"Ok, you can go back to sleep or whatever...so," Cuphead walked away but stopped, "oh and please, for the love of god, don't harm yourself." he gave me a worried look before heading off, starting his routine.

Guess I'll have to promise that, then...

I went back in his room and closed the door.

Cuphead's P.O.V.

Today, I'm gonna be dealing with those idiots. And I don't think it's gonna be pretty... High chance that I'll have to break a promise...

I don't want to keep it away from him or he won't trust me.

I don't wanna lie to him...nor do I want him to know what I'm gonna do. But I won't be able to keep it in for long. I'll have to tell Bendy if he asks. Which might be pretty soon.

I'll have to start thinking, again. I can come up with ideas and plans quickly, but, in a situation where I'm not supposed to lie, keep something away and has to be after the plan for a small amount of time can take me a few days to try to figure something out. I just hope he won't ask.

'hopefully'.
