When she pulled into a 'hug' if you could call it that, he was scared she'd start choking him or something. It wouldn't of been the first time she's caused him harm and it wouldn't be the last-- the words stung, but she said those things all the time. Letting his eyes drop down to his barefeet, slowly nodding his head. 

     Annabelle terrified him to the point of almost pissing his pants, "I'll be quiet, you won't even know I'm here..." Bug said that just to get her off his back and to reassure her that he meant it. Lifting his foot in the air a bit with the heavy chain wrapped around his ankle-- it was the thing that kept him stuck in this house. Picking up the chain, showing her he could be able to handle this. If they put him in the closet or down in the basement than he guessed that would make Annabelle happy.
