Henry was still waiting. When his back started hurting, He got up and paced. He was starting to debate if Joey actually wanted to see him when he heard the tippy-taps of two little feet.
He glanced over to the hall as Bendy hurried in. "Aw, Geez.. Sorry, Henry, Joey didn't seem interested in seein' ya."
Classic Joey, Making plans and falling through on them. Henry shrugged. "Oh, That's fine- I suppose I should get going then."

Though he turned to leave, He was stopped by a hand gripping his sleeve. Henry turned to see the demon looking.. Sad? Nervous? Perhaps both.
"Uh, Actually, I was wonderin'..." "Yeah?"
"Joey's been losin' his marbles, And it's kinda been scarin' me. Can I.. Stay with you?"
The little demon looked up with big puppydog eyes, Putting his hands together. "Pleeeease?"

Henry stared for a moment, Before snickering.
It turned into a laugh, While Henry crouched down to pat the demon on the head, Bendy giving a hopeful look.
"Sure, Kid." He saw the demon bounce with excitement at the response. "Henryyyy! Thankyouthankyouthankyou!!!" He squeaked, Giving the animator a big hug before he got picked up, Henry lifting the little guy onto his shoulders. "It's no problem. Now,"
Henry picked up the umbrella from beside the door and stepped outside- Careful not to hit the demon's head as he went.
He opened the umbrella, And started to walk, The demon holding on with a big, Happy smile.
"Let's go home."
