Mickey just stood there patiently until he felt Bendy's tail let go of his leg. Mickey ran off into the kitchen where Alice was preparing the salad, "Mick, what took you so long?" Mickey looked at her and said, "Bendy's tail wrapped around my leg and I couldn't move." Alice just snickered.
"I guess your curiosity got the better of you. I forgot to tell you something about Bendy: Bendy's tail has a mind of it's own. I learned that the hard way."
"Wait... What do you mean?"
"Bendy can last a long time without drinking anything. However, he gets more desperate as time goes by. At one of those times, I decided to throw a little prank on him. That was a mistake. I almost died."
"Wait... what? You... almost.... died?"
"Yes. I almost choked to death."
"Umm... so his tail wrapping around my leg is a bad thing?"
"No. I've seen that happen with Boris. It's kind of like a sign of affection. However, wrapping tightly around someone tight enough to keep them from moving? That's... extraordinary. You must be winning him over or something like that. Little love birds."
"Love birds? What made you think that?"
"That's for you to find out. By the way, you're as red as a tomato."
Mickey was actually quite surprised. How would this change their relationship. "Well, that took longer than expected. What happened while I was out?" Bendy said while walking towards the living room. "Oh, I don't know, your tail locked someone in place?"
"Wait. What?"
"You locked Mickey in place! Your tail wrapped itself around Mickey's leg and kept him there for about an hour!"
Bendy began to blush as if he was embarrassed. "Umm... pardon me Mickey." He apologized. Mickey looked at him confused, "Wait, pardon? What does that mean?" Bendy explained, "It's another way to say sorry."
"Oh."
Alice said, "That's the problem, he will get caught if he keeps saying pardon instead of sorry. We'll get caught." Mickey looked at her, "What do you mean?"
"You see, we aren't ordinary toons Mickey."
"You look like toons to me."
"Don't tell anyone. Specifically your brother."
"Tell what?"
"I'm a witch, Bendy's a vampire, and Boris is a werewolf."
Bendy closed his eyes and stated, "I strike at night. But it's nearly impossible when you're in a town with hunters around every corner."
"Oh. Why you act weird around me."
"Wait you noticed that?"
"Yeah, why?"
"Thanks for letting me now that I'm horrible at spilling secrets. Now all hell will break loose."
"Says who? I'll protect you."
"How?"
