You're My Sugar Bear~ (A FNaF Fanfic)

Chapter 24 Farm Life

Baby stretched and adjusted the strap on her bra, making sure it was tight but not too tight. She leaned down and picked up the crate, fresh fruit wobbling inside as she carried it through the now clean garage. She had no tank tops and didn't want to sweat stains on her good shirts. She put the crate on her shoulder and held it there, grabbing the fridge door and crouching down, putting the crate inside the shelf-less fridge. Baby scooted it in carefully and closed the door. She stood and noticed Elizabeth starring at her, she was sipping a glass of tea with a soft blush on her cheeks. Baby cracked a smile and pulled a dramatic smile.

"See something you like?"

Elizabeth spit her tea out and giggled, a bit of it dripped from her nostril. Baby smiled more and came to her, kissing her cheek as she hugged her. Elizabeth let out soft chortles as she swayed with Baby in the hug. Elijah stepped over, he had something in his hand.

A rope, connected to a large animal around its muzzle and in its mouth. It let out what sounded to be a snort. It chewed on some plants in his mouth. Baby starred, never having seen something of its kind before.

"Come on girl" Elijah guided, whistling to get the animals attention. Baby watched him move it around, she noticed its back leg was quivering and a bandage was wrapped around it.

"Uhm, what's that? And what happened to it?" Baby asked, being sincere and as nice as possible. Being down below and away from everything, it really isolated her from a lot of things and made it hard for her to understand some of the living organisms that lived near her.

"Oh, this is Sugar-Cube. One of my good horses, she's gentle. As for her leg, one of the foals stepped on it. Nothin' too bad, just gotta keep her walking everyday so it heals better." He said, petting the horse's muzzle. Baby came over. Her eyes looking at the beautiful creature.

"May I?" She asked, reaching out gently.

Elijah nodded, " 'Course" He said, he gently grabbed her wrist, she froze and pulled away.

"Woah woah, I was just showing you. From what Elizabeth told me, you don't know much outside of what happened in your life" He said, he offered his hand this time. Baby gently put her hand to his.

He put her hand to the horse's muzzle. Her eyes lit up at the touch. The light fuzz and yet the smooth skin made it confusing but pleasant. Her mouth slowly curled into a smile.

The horse snorted, blowing hot air into her face and causing her to wince from the feeling, closing her eyes and her nose scrunching up. She took a second but opened her eyes.

"You wanna ride her? It could get her steps she needs in today." Elijah said with a light chuckle.

Baby looked surprised, people rode these majestic and odd creatures?

"Uhm...how much can these things carry? I'm uh...kinda heavy.." Baby said with an awkward tone.

"How much do you way, Liz?" He asked, petting Sugar-Cube.

"About...250...last time I checked..." She said, mumbling it a bit out of anxiety. Elijah smirked.

"You should be fine, shes carried 340 pounds before" He said, rubbing the horse's side.

He handed the rope to her. Baby awkwardly took it, starring at it.

"Imma go get a saddle, I'll be right back" He said, walking down the path, different from the one he took to his house. She stood and continued to pet the horse, secretly praying she wasn't going to break this poor animals back.

She watched as its tail whipped and scared off flies that were all over it. Soon enough Elijah came back with a dark brown saddle, golden designs and matching golden stirrups for the feet to go in. It looked well kept, as though it had never been touched. She watched as he sat it up on the, oddly patient, creature's back. 

"Alright, now put your feet in the stirrups and lift yourself up. Throw your leg over the other side and put your other foot in the other stirrup." He said. Baby came over and put her matching leg up to the stirrup. She used her lower body strength and pulled herself up. The saddle began to slip and turn. She yelped as her foot gave way with the motion. Elijah caught her.

"Must've not tightened it enough, one sec." He said, going down and tightening the lower strap. He came back and motioned.

"All right now try" He smiled at her.

Baby stood on the stirrup again and lifted herself like before. Once she got high enough she threw her leg over like she was told and sat on the leather seat. She hooked her foot into the other stirrup. She looked around, surely enough the horse was supporting her.

"Attah girl, Sugar-Cube" He cheered, he handed Baby a leather lead that was attached to the front.

She grabbed it with both hands. She squeaked as Elizabeth hopped up on the horse with her, wrapping her arms around Baby's waist. Baby smiled.

"I'll take it from here, Uncle Elijah." She said, He nodded in response and unhooked the other lead.

Elizabeth took Baby's hands.

"Come on, Sugar!" She yelled, the horse started walking. Baby felt her panic rise, scared the saddle would slip again.

"You're alright, Liz" She told her. Baby took a gentle breath and followed Elizabeth's instructions as she gave them.

Elizabeth gave short commands, the horse seemed to understand and followed.

"Woah girl" She said, the horse reared back a bit and stopped. Baby smiled, she memorized the commands and watched as it trotted about with them on its back. Elizabeth made a strange clicking noise, she'd have to learn it some time soon. Baby soon stopped by Elijah and hopped off, Elizabeth following.

Baby felt her legs quiver but she was happy to experience the animal head on. She watched as he hooked the lead back to its muzzle and guided it back to the gate it came from. Her eyes grew as she saw more of them came out. There was an extra short one.

"Why's that one so small?" Baby asked, eyeing it.

"Oh, that's Pumpkin. She's a miniature." Elizabeth said. Baby watched, amazed as they trotted around.

Elizabeth nudged her.

"Come on, let's go get some popsicles" She said, going to the stairs and up to the house. Baby soon followed her. Baby went behind and caught a popsicle that Elizabeth tossed to her. She opened the white plastic and pulled out the odd shaped frozen treat, she licked it and enjoyed the tastes. She looked and saw a dog running around, guiding some small horned creatures. The dog had a fluffy coat with black and white spots on its brown base.

Elizabeth came out and down the steps, she ran over to the animal. Baby observed them as they guided the animals back into their pens.

"Heyya Howie!!" She said, petting and loving on the tail wagging and panting dog.

Baby came down to see the dog, sucking on her popsicle. The dog turned it's head to her and barked as soon as it saw her. It bounded to her and barked. Baby backed up a bit. Elizabeth came over.

"Howie, no!" She said, getting between them to stop anything from happening.

"Sorry, Liz. Howie hasn't seen you before so hes a bit weird." She said, tending to the barking animal below her. The dog ran around and came behind Baby, getting up on her legs and sniffing. She yelped and stepped forward, trying to get it away from her. She eventually lowered and offered her hand to it. Howie came to her hand and sniffed, its tail wagging as he began licking her.

Baby smiled and pet it gently. Elizabeth giggled and pet the dog along side her.

This life was much better, something Baby could quite easily get used to.
