Hurt(sick) Bendy & Worried Felix

Father son bond

Bendy's body shook with each violent cough that broke through his lips. Ink spewed with each forceful release of air. It splattered on the dirt in front of him and covered his shirt. The excess ink poured from his mouth and down his face. It dripped from his chin down onto his open palms that were shaking. His gloves were stained with the wretched black goop.

Another fit of coughing struck him causing him to clench his hands into fists. His eyes shut tightly, and he leaned over in pain. His arms wrapped tightly around his aching sides they burned horribly with each cough. His body was growing weaker and weaker with every second. He trembled and shuddered in both pain and fear. The attacks were getting worse and worse each time. He wasn't sure how much longer he had till he'd kick the bucket.

Felix was sat next to Bendy. They had been out together in the woods before this happened. The happy mood they had been in moments ago had drastically changed with the coming of this attack. Now Felix was too worried to care about the playful adventure they had been having.

He reached up and rubbed the demon's back slowly. His heart ached watching Bendy go through so much pain because of this illness. He knew just as well as everyone else that the attacks were getting worse. It was no secret that Bendy was getting close to his end. This illness would take Bendy away from him. The thought itself broke Felix's heart. He was very close to Bendy now, and he couldn't imagine not having him to talk to. He was like his son in a way.

Bendy let out one more violent cough before he collapsed into Felix's arms. His body was far too weak to even hold itself up anymore. He was shaking horribly and pain coursed through him with every breath he took. Tears poured down his face and mixed with the ink that still poured off of him. It all hurt so bad.

Felix quickly wrapped his arms around Bendy's fragile body and held him close to him. Thankfully they were already sitting on the ground, so Felix didn't have to worry about him hurting himself from that collapse. He did however, have to worry about the ground being too uncomfortable. He knew Bendy's body was already full of pain, so the rocky forest floor probably wasn't the best spot for him at the moment. He decided to make this moment as comfortable as he could. He carefully adjusted his arms and pulled Bendy up onto his lap. It wasn't the best spot still, but it was more comfortable than the ground. Making things comfortable was the only thing Felix could do. It made him feel horrible.

Bendy was far too out of his head at the moment to care where he was. His head was spinning and he felt like he could faint. Ink still poured down his face and onto both of them. It stained their clothing, which would later on make Bendy feel worse. His breathing was rough and uneven. It was taking all his energy to even force them in and out of his chest. He was in so much pain. He just wanted it to pass already and leave him be. He couldn't put up with this anymore. It was more pain living than it would be dying.

Felix's ears pressed down against his head with sadness. He couldn't stand watching the attack get worse and worse. It was taking his Bendy from him. This wasn't the happy carefree flirty Bendy he had known months ago. This was just the remainder of what he was once. That part in itself might have hurt worse than the scene in front of him. He let out a shaky sigh and reached around Bendy to grab the demon's hand. He brushed his thumb back and forth across Bendy's hand to make sure Bendy knew he wasn't alone in all this.

Bendy forced his eyes opened and looked up at their hands. He couldn't help but let a small smile slip onto his face. The small showing of affection was enough to make him happy even with all the pain he was feeling. He still had Felix with him. The one person he always looked up to. He opened his mouth to talk, but instead was met with more coughing. He hunched over Felix's arm that was still wrapped around his waist to keep him from falling. The coughing continued on and on for what seemed like forever, until everything settled down.

Felix squeezed Bendy's hand as the attack cleared up. The ink slowly started to disappear and cleaned up Bendy's appearance. Felix tilted Bendy back into him, so he could rest up. "It's okay Bendy. I have you." He closed his eyes and pressed his face into Bendy's head. He could feel the ink against his cheeks, but he really didn't care at the moment. Being clean was the last thing on his mind. He could always shower later.

"T-thanks." Bendy glanced up at Felix with clouded eyes. His mind was completely out of it. He blinked slowly while staring at his idol above him. "You're amazing." He commented in a scratchy voice. It was one of the many side effects to his attacks. He hated it.

"Heh not really, but thank you." Felix pulled his face away and let got of Bendy's hand. He brushed away some fur from Bendy's face now that it wasn't stuck to the demon's forehead. "Don't waste your energy talking. Rest up okay?" Felix whispered as softly as he could. His heart was breaking more and more.

"Mhm." Bendy replied with a simple hum. He let his head fall against Felix's chest again and his eyes slipped shut. He was out within moments. His body couldn't stand to stay awake any longer. It was too tired.

Felix shifted to see Bendy's chest. Thankfully the younger male was still breathing, and pretty strongly too. He wasn't dying yet. "This isn't fair." Felix whispered now that Bendy was fast asleep. "At all." He lifted a hand to his mouth to muffle the sobs that were now making themselves known. He had held them back for Bendy, but now that he was asleep they broke through their wall. Tears poured from his eyes and his breathing hitched with each struggled sound.

He was like that for only a few minutes. He couldn't stay and cry his heart out, not when Bendy still needed him. "Come on bud, let's get you home." Felix whispered then tried his best to pick the demon up softly. It was easier said then done in the position they were in. Once in a standing position he shifted Bendy bridal style. It would probably be the easiest way for them to travel. "Off we go." Felix mumbled like he was still talking to Bendy.

He started through the now darkened forest. Night must have snuck up on them while they were busy. How long had the attack lasted? Seemed longer than it should have been.

"You know, I'm sorry we didn't finish the quest quickly like we planned." Felix apologized to the sleeping figure in his arms. His arms were really tired from the thirty minute walk carrying him, but he refused to stop. "I'm sure once Boris figures out this map problem we'll be on a roll." Felix looked up at the sky above them with tears in his eyes. "Yeah, it'll be fixed before you know it." He assured himself before he looked back down at Bendy. The sleeping figure looked absolutely horrible. "You just... you just have to hold on." Felix bit his lip to try and hold back another sob. He wasn't a really emotional person, but this killed him inside out.

"Please don't die yet." He practically begged in hope that it would change something. "Just... hold on. Yeah hold on for Boris... and... hold on for me."
