1 week since Bendy and his family moved~

1 day after their first performance~

"Bendy we're on stage by..." Boris's words trailed off when he found out that he was actually not around. Alice came over to him, "Borbor!! Look! Look!! Does this look cute on me??" She asked as she twirled in front of Boris.

Letting her dress fully and gracefully twirl with her

Boris smiled warmly and patted her head gently, "very cute!" He exclaimed as he lets their noses touch each other. Alice smiled ear to ear in return before turning back to Henry who was chatting with the sound designer.

"He's probably still in his room..." Boris muttered to himself.j

He went back to looking for Bendy. Meanwhile Bendy just finished changing into his new costume. Boris peeked on Bendy's door.

"Hey bro.." Boris greeted behind Bendy as he was fixing his bowtie. They were now already back on track, of course, they had to explain everything on what happened to their show. But now it was going great. They had enough money to keep Bendy and Alice's bodies to stay stable as time goes.

"Are you doing okay?"

Bendy lifts his head up to his brother and gave him a sad smile, "yeah.. I am.." he said and looked back at himself in the mirror. Boris knew he wasn't feeling okay, ever since they have moved. But Boris never gave up trying to cheer Bendy up, "hey.. don't worry. The kids are gonna love you." Boris said as he lowered himself to Bendy's height.

"No, Boris.. it's just not that... It is also because.. I'm guilty of what I had done to Mugman.. and for just leaving Cuphead. I mean I could've have said something to him than just.. hiding." Bendy said, his tail lowered in sadness.

"Hey.. I'm sure.. they understand. I know they do. So please just... Don't stop being happy from that. You still have me, Alice, Henry and even the kids!!" Boris smiled.

Bendy sighed, "how will I know Boris... After what happened?.. everytime I go up the stage.. everyone seems to be... Defensive.." he brought his sleeve up and wipe a little bit of dwelling tears from his right eye. Boris, of course felt bad for him, he just doesn't know who to blame.. or If he should really blame anyone.

"Hey, come on. Of course they were defensive. From the first day you came on stage." Boris chirped happily as he turns his brother to him. He gave him a warm smile, "but as time goes I can smell and I just know that they are trusting you again! So no need to worry!" Boris cheered making his brother feel... Happy.

"So come on!! We need a happy Bendy up there on the stage! Not a sad one!!!" Boris chirped while pinching his brother's cheeks making Bendy giggled, "okay! Okay! I'm happy now okay?"

"Attaboy." Boris cooed as he stood up and walked to the back stage with Bendy. Henry hurriedly walked over to Bendy, "okay Bendy.. now.. I know it's still our their performance but I want you to give it your all!!" Henry cheered as he putted on a pink tutu on Bendy.

"You got it Henry! But I really don't see why I had to wear this..." Bendy's sweat dropped when he thought of all the possible things that could happen if he was up on stage. Many things could happen...

Henry: "it suits you."

Alice: "You look pretty in it!"

Boris: "you look like a girl. But okay."

They all said at the same time while they hold their laughter in. And then they laughed....

Not even 3 seconds the director called out for Bendy as the song started. He hurriedly walked out of the stage, smiling wide to the children and the parents all around. He was well aware that they were still a bit.. defensive. So he decided it's better to try getting back their trusts again.

"Hello everyone!! I'm Bendy! The dancing demon!!!" He chirped with the microphone in his hand. The crowd giggled of how cute he was being, "let's play a game!!!" Bendy added as he waved his hands in the air.

"The game will be sing along with Bendy!!" He shouted happily as the crowd of children roar from excitement. Everyone was finally warming up to the new Bendy which bought his whole family relief. Bendy started calling out his two 'Band mates' in the show which were Boris and Alice.

As the two started fixing up the stage, Bendy started to look through the crowd for a lucky kid. The crowd was cheering loudly as his eyes wonder on their rows but then his eyes settled on one particular kid with a hood over his head but his cute little red nose was sticking out.

He couldn't see his face but he knew it was a boy.

"And our lucky kid will be..." He said as all the other kids got quiet and waited. He pointed towards the boy who jolted up in quiet shock.

The boy was really hesitant of whether or not it was a good idea to stand up. Bendy went over to the boy and patted his head,

"hey there Toots!~" he cooed to the kid who lowered his head.

"Let's sing together. Okay--"

His word was cut off when the boy suddenly stood up. He was surprised of how tall the little boy was. And Bendy realized how similar the boy is to someone.. he knew..

"Oh.. uh.. you're tal--?"

When the boy finally remove the hood from his head. It made bendy paused for a bit...

"C-cuphead?"

(Sorry... Not sorry :3)
