"Do you want to come out with us, Bonnie?" Freddy wondered as Chica and Foxy left the room.
"I'll go out, but not where the Toy's are," Bonnie replied, standing up. "I'll be in the office if you need me."
"Okay, but make sure you come back before the employee comes."
Bonnie nodded. They left the room. Freddy went down the hall ahead, while Bonnie turned down the hall to the right. He sighed, making his way into the office and sitting in the chair. He looked up to the ceiling, thinking.
Bonnie glanced at the clock on the desk. It was almost 12 o'clock. He stood up, stretching his gears. He hadn't moved since he sat down.
He walked down the hall, wondering if the rest were already in the Parts and Service room. He opened the door and glanced inside, but it was empty. He nodded, continuing down the Main Hall. He stopped, hearing Freddy and Toy Bonnie. He knew it was wrong to eavesdrop, but what he was hearing was interesting.
"Bonnie's not as patient as he used to be. Since he was dismantled, he's been pretty irritable," Freddy said.
"Yeah!" Toy Bonnie laughed.
"And the whole no face thing. Not only does it bother Bonnie, but it bothers me. I can't handle it," Freddy went on.
Bonnie didn't want to hear anymore. He walked down the hall, out of earshot. He probably shouldn't have eavesdropped. He opened the door, walking into the Parts/Service room and shutting the door behind him.
"I should've known." Bonnie sighed.
"I think we should be getting back in our places. It's almost time for that employee to start his shift," Toy Freddy said, stepping up on the stage.
"Yeah," Toy Bonnie agreed.
"Hey, before you go-" Freddy tapped Toy Bonnie on the shoulder.
"Hm?" Toy Bonnie raised an eyebrow.
"Can I have a talk with you?"
"Sure. What about?"
"I'd rather do it privately," Freddy whispered.
"O-kay." Toy Bonnie followed Freddy over beside the Main Hall doorway; he leaned against the wall. "So, what was it?"
"I just wanted to tell you, that I don't much appreciate the way you're treating Bonnie." Freddy scratched his head nervously.
"Huh?" Toy Bonnie tilted his head.
"Well, Bonnie's not as patient as he used to be. Since he was dismantled, he's been pretty irritable," Freddy explained.
"Yeah?" Toy Bonnie chuckled.
"And the whole 'No Face' thing. Not only does it bother Bonnie, but it bothers me. I can't handle it," Freddy went on.
"Oh, sorry. I'm just messing around with you guys. I didn't mean to bother you that much," Toy Bonnie apologized.
"Yeah, I just don't like seeing him so upset. Try to be more obvious with your playfulness. I think he's just assuming you're taunting him."
"Yeah, I get it. I'll try to be more playful and less taunting."
"Okay. Yeah, that was all I was wanting to talk to you about. We should probably be getting back to our places, before the employee catches us."
"Mhm."
Freddy and Toy Bonnie split ways, just as the rest were coming through. Toy Bonnie followed Toy Chica on stage as Foxy and Chica followed Freddy into the Parts/Service room. Freddy opened the door to let them walk in, then he walked in and shut the door behind himself. He looked around for Bonnie, but didn't see him.
"Bonnie? Is Bonnie still in the office?" Freddy started to turn back.
"He's over here, lad," Foxy said, pointing to the other side of the wall.
"No, I'm not," he heard Bonnie hiss.
"Oh, um, never mind. He's not over here."
Bonnie sighed. Freddy looked around the corner, to see Bonnie sitting against the wall. He looked to the side. Freddy walked over and sat beside him. He grunted.
"Hey, are you okay?" Freddy wondered.
"I'm fine. Now, go away," Bonnie replied.
"What? What happened? Did I do something?" Freddy worried.
Bonnie didn't answer. Freddy reached over and grabbed Bonnie's hand, but he yanked it back, draping his arm over his body. Freddy frowned. He sighed, standing up. He walked back around the corner.
"What was that about?" Foxy asked as Freddy sat down.
"I don't know. Do you guys know if I did something? Did I say something?" Freddy whispered, looking over to the rest.
They thought for a moment. Chica shook her head. "I be not sure," said Foxy. Freddy hummed sadly.
