Virus (Sequel To 'A Malfunction?')(Bonnie x Reader)

"Bonnie, stop it. Heh." You cover your mouth to stop a small giggle from escaping.

"Why?"

Bonnie's been really touchy with you all day. Constantly nuzzling you, snuggling and such. Admittedly, you're enjoying it as it's been so long since you've had this kind of affectionate moment with him. You even find yourself liking his strange actions as well – as much as you deny yourself doing so. He'll purr, hiss, rub his face against you like a cat, gently bite your ear or hand and even lick you. You shouldn't like this. You should be concerned but just seeing him so loving and affectionate after so much hardship is filling you with so much hope. He's smiling so much.

"Because you should be resting right now. Especially after an examination."

"But I feel just fine." He pulls you fully onto the bed as before you were just sitting on the edge of it. "Besides, we haven't been able to do this in a while."

"Fair enough..."

You caress his cheek, making him purr again and sink into your hand, as you reposition yourself to be more comfortable on the bed.

~~~~~~~~~~

"Do you like this?" Bonnie sits in front of you.

"Yeah..." You look away and smile, still not sure if it's ok to do so.

"Then why do you seem so on edge?" He tilts his head.

"Oh, um... Sorry. It's nothing."

"Are you sure?" Bonnie leans forward, so much so that he has to put his hands on either side of your legs to balance himself. "Because I don't think it's nothing..."

"I promise, Bon. It's ok."

He murmurs and nuzzles your nose. He doesn't stop, however, especially when you accidentally let a giggle out. You look away from him but he simply continues on a different area of your face.

"Stop it." You laugh quietly.

You put your hands on his chest and gently push him away as he bites your lip but as your strength is nothing compared to his before you know it, he's on top of you.

~~~~~~~~~~

"Are you going to tell me what's wrong?" Bonnie adjusts himself to be sitting comfortably on you.

"I told you, it's nothing. I'm ok." You hold his hands. "Plus, with everything that's been happening, do you think that I would be perfectly fine?"

Bonnie looks off to the side, a small frown appearing on his face. He seems to be lost in thought. He starts like that until he smiles, ear twitching, as he looks back at you.

"What?" You raise an eyebrow.

He growls in a strangely gentle way and leans back down towards you. He goes to your neck and just goes for it. He licks and bites you, making multiple purrs and growls as he does. You can't help but study his behaviour as you're still thinking about what the hell Desmond did to him. It's something to do with an animal, clearly. Maybe it's just that. He's made Bonnie act like an animal. It would actually be a good thing if it is, as it's actually rather tame compared to what Des has done to others in the past.

"Y/n..." Bonnie hovers above you, slightly concerned.

"Sorry." You hold his cheek.

You wrap your arms around his neck and pull him down towards you so you can kiss him. Worryingly, he seems confused at first as if he's forgotten how to do it but he remembers rather quickly. Thankfully. You start to relax more as Bonnie stops his licking, purring, growling and biting and goes back to normal, loving behaviours. He kisses you and wraps his arms around you in a tight hug, showing that he isn't completely gone yet. Even as he undresses you, he keeps the regular behaviour. There's still hope. Just the fact Bonnie is able to go back to how he normally acts is proof enough that there is still something you can do to save him. He's strong enough to fight against whatever Desmond has done, even if for a while. Words can't describe how happy this makes you.

"What's got you smiling so brightly?" Bonnie asks, smiling himself.

"I'm just so proud of you."

"Why?"

"You're just so resilient." You almost start crying. "I love you so much."

"I love you too."

You hug him. Although he doesn't fully understand what you're talking about – since you're kind of in a state right now – he seems to be empowered by your words. He sees how happy you are and he sees the first real smile from you in what feels like forever. The main question is if he can pinpoint what you're happy about. Whether or not he knows how he's behaving. Whether he knows that it isn't a good thing. Whether he wants to change and get better. If he doesn't then...

Say your goodbyes.
