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

Chapter 20: Scared?

"I-I...I..."

Your dad doesn't let Bonnie speak. All he does is grab one of his hands and hold it up to his injury, specifically the claws. It's a perfect fit. Bonnie shakes his head.

"Let me guess..." Your dad drops his hand and leans closer. "You don't remember?"

"N-no...I-I don't. All I remember is going to sleep."

Your dad tuts. "Great. So now you can lose your mind even when unconscious."

Bonnie shakes as he searches for something to say. What can he say? What are you supposed to do in this situation? He can't keep denying it as he himself isn't sure, plus all the evidence is right there.

~~~~~~~~~~

"Bonnie!" You appear around the corner.

"Do not try defending him again, y/n." Your dad turns to you. "Look at this and say he's innocent."

"Dad, I saw that before you got it fixed. And I'm not saying what Bonnie did was ok but I'm just asking you to lay off him! I don't know what happened but he just somehow snapped in his sleep, he didn't mean to hurt you. I'm not asking you to go on like nothing happened but antagonizing him like this is only going to make it worse!"

"What do you mean he snapped in his sleep?! That's not supposed to happen!"

"I know! But even if it wasn't in his sleep you would still be doing this and you shouldn't. He's going to snap, he's infected, it's not his fault."

"Why did he even 'snap'?" Your dad puts air quotation marks up.

"It's because he saw you as a threat to me – and don't even try to say that you weren't. I know full well that you weren't but Bonnie can't see that right now and that's normal."

Bonnie just looks between you two. Something's happening to him. He can't pinpoint what it feels like as it's such an odd sensation but the closest thing there is to a description is that it seems like something is constantly moving inside him. It's so hot that it feels cold. He's tense as far as he can go. He just wants to hurt something. The sight of your dad yelling at you is making him want to lash out, despite the fact he's already done that. You're so delicate, you don't need to be belittled. Bonnie looks at your dad's wound. If he did that to his neck then you wouldn't have to go through this abuse anymore, the silence will be so delicious. No more pain. So much better. Good. Help. Fun.

"Face it y/n, he's turned into a monster!!!"

You gasp suddenly and violently, the kind you would do right before bursting into tears. That pushes Bonnie even further.

"How dare you!" you yell.

The disbelief and betrayal in your eyes is so painful to see for Bonnie. He has to do something. Anything.

~~~~~~~~~~

Slowly, Bonnie steps away from the wall and towards your dad. Maybe it would be quicker if he bites his neck and tears it open. He's never bitten anyone nor tasted blood but... there's a first time for everything.

"BONNIE NO!!!"

Your dad screams and jumps back. Lucky for him his neck is not what Bonnie got his teeth around, but rather your forearm. Seconds before he jumped on your dad, you rushed in front of him and stuck your arm out to stop his bite. You stare into his eyes. The vertically slit pupil is now slim, only a sliver is able to be seen, showing that this is yet another episode. Thankfully, Bonnie immediately stopped when your arm got shoved into his mouth so you have no wounds but he also isn't moving away.

"This is twice y/n, something is wrong with him – past Fatal Insanity!" your dad yells.

Bonnie growls at the mere sound of his voice and the vibration that sends to your arm sends shivers down your spine.

"Dad, leave now. I'll handle this."

"I can't just leave you!"

"Dad!... Get. Out. Now."

Very reluctantly your dad listens to you and hastily runs out of the room. All you do is keep eye contact with Bonnie. When your dad's footsteps fade out, he finally moves.

~~~~~~~~~

He licks your arm before letting it go. "Y/n... Why don't you let me protect you?"

He tries to rush out to where your dad went but you grab his wrists and pin him against the wall, despite the fact he can easily overpower you in mere seconds.

"I'm ok, Bonnie."

"He...hurt. Must...hurt him."

He tries to move away again but you just call his name, making your voice sound like you're in immense pain. That makes him stop instantly.

"Please don't leave, Bonnie."

"But... protect. He...hurt you." Something changes in him. "He...yelled...he... HURT YOU!!"

Now, you've always been calm around Bonnie. You always felt like nothing could harm you with him around. He kept you safe. He made you feel better. This, right now, is the very first time you've seen him as the threat. It wasn't shock or surprise that flashed in your eyes. It was fear. Pure, unfiltered, nerve-wracking, fear. It's so bad you take a step back and raise your hands up. That's what makes Bonnie stop, completely, the 'episode' he has immediately ends when he sees that single reaction. He's seen you scared before but never has it been like this. Never has it been for this reason. Right now, everything is wrong. A part of Bonnie just dies. Left to rot.

You are afraid of him.

Wow...Things went down in this chapter, huh? Low-key had a lot of fun writing though. Like a scary amount of fun. Also, Bonnie is not going to take the last part very well and so next chapter something special will be happening. Something bittersweet maybe? I don't know if that's the right word... Until next time!!
