Bonbon jolts awake, heart racing quicker then normal. He breaks into a cold sweat, heart clutching his chest. He's shaking uncontrollably, eyes darting around.
The young half sprite snaps his head around to the voice, seeing a soft concerned face. "Bonbon, its okay... " Frederick's voice is quiet, and Bonbon remembers where he is.
Bonbon is on the couch, having passed out there. He could feel eyes on him, all filled with worry, but he could only focus on Frederick.
His dream comes rushing back, a broken, mangled body-
His hands covered in blood-
And those eyes. Dull and lifeless, staring into his soul-
"Hey!" The bear half sprite snaps in Bonbon's face, pulling him back into reality. "Bonbon, what's wrong?"
He stares at him, slowly pulling himself together, erasing the emotions the best he could.
".... its nothing," Bonbon whispers. "I already forgot it...."
Frederick stares back, and Bonbon prays he didnt catch his lie. Eventually, the older male nods, smiling softly. "Okay..."
He hugs him, holding him against his chest. Bonbon closes his eyes, pushing the dream to the back of his head. He presses closer, breathing deeply.
Freddy ruffles his hair. "Another bad dream, kid?" He chuckles softly. "You know they cant get you here. You're safe"
"I.... know. I'm fine, really...."
Suddenly hes surrounded by everyone, all of the friends he had made. All of them hugging him and stroking his hair gently, letting him know he was wanted and loved.
Bonbon buries into Frederick's chest a little more, knowing they meant well. But they didnt know. He wasnt afraid of what was outside anymore.
