Beach House Getaway

Chapter 10 - Day 9

This chapter is being released three days after the previous chapter as well. I seriously want to make up some major time here, so here it is. This already has over two thousand words even before this was edited, so this could possibly be the longest chapter of this fic so far, and I won't be surprised if it is in the end, given that this is already quite the contender here.

Unfortunately for you all (or fortunately), there will be zero spoilers of what is going to happen today, so it's best to continue guessing as you read along, haha.

Enjoy!

Day 9

Day nine. Eight days down, six more to go. Well, more like nine days down, since it was getting close to the night hours, yet the sunset was still shown. Val and Foxy had decided to go out for a walk. None of the other six anthropomorphic animals seemed interested, so it conveniently left those two alone. Knowing that it was going to get dark soon, they knew that they had to make it back to reunite with their friends. Sure, they would have stayed out, but they never had the time to that evening, since everyone assumed that it was be a good idea to head to a movie theater to see a movie.

"So then I was like, girl you can't even go one day without having something to say, so why don't you just keep your mouth close and go off somewhere else if you're going to be busy trying to down people all the time." Val was in the middle of a rant. "I mean, what's her deal? So then I told her to take several seats, please. If she really thinks she can just intimidate a person like me of all people, then she is making a grave mistake."

"...Yeah…" Foxy eye rolled, clearly not even being slightly interested in hearing her complain at the moment, even though he found it at least to be a little hilarious. But then again, for him, the rant went on for far too long.

Luckily for him, due to Val all of a sudden changing the subject, the rant was cut short.

"...Ooh, what did Ben text Derrick?"

"He told him that since they both go to college together, he was going to leave us to make the decision on when the party should be, since he doesn't leave until next Wednesday..." Foxy Michaels elaborated. "And so the others chose Friday, so he's officially having it Friday night at eight. It'd be one of the last things that we would do before we leave on Sunday."

"I guess that's fine. All parties happen on either Fridays or Saturdays, anyway… And then we'll test out whatever plan we come up with?"

"...That's the best way to go, I guess… Derrick told him that they we're going to the movies tonight. He asked if he could come in order for us to gather more entail, but of course, he declined." Foxy sighed, still being annoyed about it. He then faced her. "You know, if Ben does have something up his sleeve, we gotta be prepared for it. He invited him so that we could use it to our advantage, so we were very surprised that he said no..."

"I know how you feel. It's frustrating to say the least." She understood with a head shake. "Like, it's really weird and crazy what we're dealing with here. I don't think any of us were planning on stopping a potential criminal before. First time for everything, I suppose..."

"Well, no matter what happens, we'll protect each other and make sure everyone of us make it out in one piece." Foxy held his confidence. "No problem."

"Protecting each other?" Val repeated lifting an eyebrow. "Oh, so you mind being my boyfriend until this is over?"

"Oh, stop." Foxy laughed in response. "I would, but I wouldn't. But if we somehow have to lie just to stay under the radar than maybe. Gotta do whatever it takes so karma can bite this Ben dude in the butt."

With Val staring ahead of herself for a few seconds, Foxy kept note and chose to slowly move his lips closer to Val's face to see if how she would have reacted. He predicted that she would jump back a bit, and he was one hundred percent accurate.

"Foxy, stop!" She playfully punched his arm, though, a move he never saw coming, taking his turn to stumble. "You wanted a reaction, didn't you?"

"Maybe..." His eyes rolled over to his left. Though his smirk remained, even for Val to confirm her speculation. "What if we have to do it in public though if we have to lie? A little practice wouldn't hurt, would it?"

"Boy, get outta here." Ramons punched his arm again.

"Oh would you quit that already? We're already outside so we can do it."

"No."

"Then how are we gonna practice our acting skills? We gotta try something." He was determined to get his way. "If we were in a relationship, we gotta act like it. We gotta give him an incredible performance at least. Like..."

"Okay, boyfriend." The joking began. "I love you, too."

They continued to laugh until they finally approached the beach house. With Foxy unlocking it with the keys, both foxes walked inside, only to drop their jaws instantly upon what they witnessed.

"..."

"..."

"..."

"..."

"Oh my god…"

"Guys, stop…"

"..." Foxy's flabbergasted stare quickly turned into a big smile. "Oh my god… It's finally official! You two kissed!"

He then dashed off to alert his friends. "Guys, me and Val caught Bonnie and Chica kissing! We saw it with our own eyes! I swear!"

"..." Bonnie facepalmed with great irritation. Of course. They had to be caught. Just his luck.

-/-

"...Is it true?"

"..." Chica shifted her eyes from Ryan to her new official boyfriend, as if she expected him to be the one to speak, so he did following a sigh.

"Okay, do you want the short version or the long version?"

"The long version if it's worth it." Freddy's arms were tightened, not even making an attempt to hide his laugh. "I… I can't believe this."

"Lemme just explain, please." Bonnie had the floor. "We were both left alone by the living room. Chica wanted to go out for a walk and find Foxy and Val because she changed her mind about it. So I shrugged and said 'why not?'. I noticed that it was just going to be me and her again, so by the time Chica came downstairs to the living room, I decided to straight up tell her that our friends were trying too hard to put us together, since I've realized a long time ago that they think that I know I had a crush on Chica. She then asked me if I really had a crush on her, and I wasn't gonna lie. We had great history together after all. Then after more than a dozen seconds of silence, she then told me that the only reason why she never thought of it that way was because she didn't think that I would like her more than a friend level, so she never paid it any mind..."

...

"..." No words were spoken from anyone, so Roberts resumed his explanation. "Then I asked her if she was changing her mind now that we were discussing it, and she actually said yes. She liked me too. So both just stood there and decided to go for it."

"We actually shared one kiss without being interrupted." Chica raised a finger. "It was the second kiss where Foxy and Val showed up, so they were lucky that the whole thing wasn't ruined."

"Like we're supposed to know when you two and you two only are standing right in front of the door kissing each other on the lips. But anyway,... you guys gotta date immediately. Like, right now." Foxy suggested. "I can't believe what I saw. Ugh... Why didn't I take a picture or something?"

"Oh shut up..." Chica rolled her eyes.

"I'm pretty sure all our friends back at home would love it!" He grinned with a loud snicker.

"What do you mean that we have to date immediately?" Bonnie was more focused on what his friend suggested. "We haven't even been a couple for five minutes."

"But, since we're already going to the movies tonight, I don't see why not you two can't go for it already." Derrick grinned. "When we get to the movie theater, we'll make sure that you two are separated from all of us. You can call us out for 'forcing' you two to be alone or something, but you gotta realize is that if we were all in a group watching a movie together, knowing that the two of you are now official, things could get awkward."

"..."

"Yeah."

"...Really guys?" Bonnie had a hard time selecting words to spit out at the time

"And if you need help, we'll be sitting alllll the way in the back." Victoria added with a raised finger, her thumb pointing behind herself.

With neither Bonnie nor Chica saying anything, it ended up being Derrick to break to resume the conversation. "Well, don't just stand there you two. The both of you really need to get ready, now. Did either of you pack nice clothes with you or something?"

"Well, no because I assumed that we were not going to some fancy restaurant or something." Chica rolled her eyes. "I really don't feel like changing you guys..."

"Well, feel like it." Val nodded walking closer, pointing in the direction of her room. "You're changing. Now. Since you two are refusing to follow our instructions, we will not leave until you do so."

"I still find it weird that we're already going out on our first date less than two hours ago, Chica…"

Bonnie, Chica, and the rest of the gang were now at the movie theater, and the movie was set to begin in about fifteen minutes. As promised, the two anthropomorphic animals that were currently the center of attention, Victoria kept her word as she and the rest of her friends were in the back row, all of them had the biggest smirks as if they were competing in a contest to see who could smirk the largest.

"Looks like I'll be watching two movies at once, here." Foxy said. "This is one for the books. Well, for the actual one, I'm still mad that it can be only shown in the theaters, guys. I thought that it was going to be the only reason why we are here, but now we have even more."

"Well, I just can't believe that after all this time, they're finally doing it." Ryan spoke. "Bonnie x Chica was a hot topic all year, and now they just became boyfriend and girlfriend out of nowhere right behind our backs... Or underneath our noses. I was upstairs talking to dad..."

"Yeah, it may be sudden now, but quickly we're all gonna get use to it." Derrick replied. "These two need to kiss at least once within the next two hours or I'm gonna be mad."

Somewhere behind the movie theater was a black, male tiger wandering around as he spoke on the phone.

"So what movie are they seeing again?"

...

"...Okay, so all I gotta do is to look where it's at? ...Don't I have to buy a ticket? ...And you swear you will pay me back? ...On your grandfather's grave? ...Alright, then. I'm gone."

After hanging up, he pulled his black hood over his head, walking around the building as he progressed to the front of movie theater.

"Alright, let's go to the bathroom so that we won't have to worry about getting up in the middle of the movie. You can go first so I can watch over our food."

Bonnie Roberts watched Chica Candance stood up as she began to make her way down, much to Foxy's disappointment.

"Aw, come on!" He glared. "Why didn't she go when were still at the house? The movie is gonna start?"

"You didn't go, either." Freddy recalled.

"...Okay, you're right... Might as well go now, then." Foxy said in defeat as he carefully made his way out of the aisle.

As Chica was at least halfway to the girls restroom, she was unaware that she ended up near the same male tiger as before, who was rather so astonished that she was approaching him, rather than the other way around. He had to cover his mouth as a signal to not gasp out loud.

Nonetheless, he knew he had to follow the chicken all the way to the ladies room, without making it obvious for her to feel that something was wrong. Thus, he had no choice but to wait until Chica came back out. Fortunately for him, he was aware that she could not be in there forever.

About three minutes later (which seemingly turned out to be the absolute longest three minutes in his life), she finally exited the restroom. The moment she turned to walk past the tiger, he suddenly reached into her pocket and grabbed her phone and immediately speed-walked his way out the back door of the building.

Obviously, this made Chica very upset and irritated. "Hey! I'm not stupid! I saw that! Give it back! Now!"

-/-

"..."

Bonnie was noticing that the movie was set to begin in about six minutes, and Chica was still nowhere to be found. Of course, the more time that has passed, the more concerned he got, yet a little annoyed simultaneously. Not wanting to head all the way to the back row, he decided to call Foxy.

"...Dude, did you see Chica when you came out?"

"No…" Foxy answered from the back. "I knew she would take longer than me so I just went back here..."

"...Well, come on over, sit in her spot, and watch over my food. I have to go myself, anyway."

"...Why did you go earlier!?"

"I wasn't even thinking about going to the bathroom until right now, since Chica has not came back yet. Now just sit in my spot and I'll be back soon. Please don't let anyone take my food, Foxy..."

As Michaels did what he was told, Bonnie was soon out of the room. In almost no time, he made it near the ladies room where he called out her name, but to no answer.

At that moment, he knew that something did not sit well with him. However, maybe Chica simply decided to retrieve more snacks or something? Yet when he went out to glance at the lines, she was nowhere to be seen. Great.

Sighing out of concern and confusion, he pulled out of his phone to contact her.

He would not believe what he heard next.

"BONNIE, COME ON OUT IN THE BACK! COME OUT OUT IN THE-"

"..."

With his mouth wide opened, it was quite obvious that it came to his attention that something was terribly wrong.

Thinking quickly, he dashed right out of the back door as told. He nimbly turned to the left to begin calling her name and witnessed his partner Chica Candance being pinned to the wall back the black tiger, who looked as if he was getting ready to pull something out.

"AAAAAAAH!"

The next thing the black anthropomorphic knew he was tackled to the ground by Bonnie, allowing Chica to run free.

She watched as the two men ended up wrestling each other. Figuring that it was not the best idea to just stand there and do absolutely nothing to help, she did the exact opposite and got back in it, doing everything in her power to knock the man off of Roberts.

-/-

"Okay, guys. This is getting ridiculous. First Chica, now Bonnie. The movie is about to start in like, one minute and neither of them are back yet. What's taking them so long?"

"I don't know, Foxy…" Freddy said from the other side.

"Well, I blame Chica. If she never would have got up, I wouldn't have had to get up myself. Then she took too long and now Bonnie is taking a long time. If they're getting extra snacks, they'd be stupid enough to not even make it to the movie in time, even though they were already here..."

"But, how could that be?" Ryan thought out loud. "Both of them gone? ...Something's clearly not right here. Lemme get up."

"I'm coming, too." Victoria volunteered as well, Val also getting up from her spot. "We'll be back, Derrick."

"Good luck, I guess..."

They both speedily walked out of the area until they approached a cashier. To no one's surprise, she happened to be in the middle of serving a customer, but neither of them were obviously not worried about her, nor her two impatient five year old boys.

"Excuse me, miss." Val was the one that got her attention. "But two of our friends have just left to the restroom, and they haven't came back, yet. Have you seen a tall, blue bunny and a yellow chicken anywhere?"

-/-

Nearly ten minutes later, Val, Ryan, and everybody else were now outside in the back of the theater, watching Bonnie and Chica interact with a police officer, explaining everything that went on as patient and detailed as they could have, even though it proved to be rather difficult given the nature of the situation. The three of them, which included the attacker, had quite a bit of dirt and grass stains on our clothes, with the latter already being in the police car in the backseat, swearing his head off like a sailor. It was unknown whether he was mad at a certain individual, the fact that he was getting arrested, or both.

Freddy had both of his hands in front of his face out of anger and frustration. "I can't believe this…"

"I mean, all I wanted to do was to go to the bathroom." Chica raged to the officer. "I couldn't even do that! He took my phone, I almost got beaten to death, and if Bonnie never showed up, I don't know what would have happened to me, and it's not fair!"

"I'm very sorry you and your boyfriend had to go through that." The man shook his head with a sigh. "Are you hurt in any way?"

"Well, we're beat up, but I don't think we have any major injuries anywhere." She turned to Bonnie. "You're okay, right?"

"I'm fine." He promptly responded. "Just super ticked off right now. Are we free to go?"

"You guys are leaving this area on Sunday, right?"

"...Yeah?"

"...You two can go, now."

With the officer's permission, Bonnie and Chica both angrily walked past everybody.

...Well that escalated quickly. If this doesn't prove that a certain someone's true colors are exposed, I don't what will. (By the way, off topic, but this is in fact the longest chapter so far, with it also being the first chapter being over three thousand words.)

Question:

1. (Yes, only one) How do you think Bonnie, Chica, and the others would react in the aftermath of the situation, and how exactly would Bonnie and Chica feel about it? Those two have only been officially together for just over an hour, and then this happens. Wow...

I'll see you all soon. ;-)
