You woke up at 6:30 and got ready to go grocery shopping. You had bags in your car and you let security know what you were doing which they allowed since the patients weren't ready for breakfast until 10. By 8 AM you were shopping getting almond milk, eggs, orange juice, fruit punch, potatoes, bread, cereals, jelly, jam, peanut butter, some frozen foods, some canned foods, cheese, butter, olive oil, a case of water, chicken flavored soups, ramen soups, much-needed seasonings, packs of chicken, pork chops, and a steak. That was more than enough for now and it was 9:10 by the time you pulled off from the grocery store so you pushed the speed limit a bit and made it back in 20 minutes instead of 30 minutes so you could have enough time to put everything up and be ready to accompany them for breakfast. 

"What's all that you got there, sweetie?" The same guard, you think his name is Lawrence, who helped you pack was reaching out and grabbing half of your bags from you. With a sigh of relief, you thanked him as you walked your way to your place.

"Since I have basically a kitchen in there, I figured I'd go shopping for some things." He looked between you and the bags making you chuckle. A few things were an understatement. Once inside your room, he placed all the bags on the floor and he closed the door for you giving you time to put up everything. You were in your scrubs so once you were done, you washed your hands and face, lotioned up a bit, and came out of the room to wait for them at 10 on the dot. 

"You came just in time Y/N." You nodded at Randall and per usual Michael was at the front per usual you waved at him, happy to have gotten a two-finger wave from him, and Jason behind him waved a couple of times with one hand, it was better than the half-wave he gave you. As they continued, you saw how they kept looking at you but, didn't really acknowledge you. Brahms saw you and he perked up waving at you excitedly and you waved back with a smile. 

"Hi Ms. Y/N. I'm happy to see you but, don't be scared, okay?" You had no idea what he was talking about and he didn't get a chance to explain.

"I won't darling." You watched as the rest of them came in trying to figure out why Freddy gave you a look with no words and the legion people were giggling, especially the tallest man, he was hysterical. You were so fucking confused as to what was so funny. When Bo and Vincent came in and Bo was smiling sadistically at you, you knew something was off.

"Can't wait to hear you scream." Why in the ever-loving fuck would you scream? You waited for the rest of them to leave, giving waves still confused and your answer came in the form of chains clanging obnoxiously together. You followed the trail of chains up the frame of the pyramid head whose helmet was off, standing tall and arms basically restrained and encased in metal. He was gigantic holy shit even the guards didn't want to be near him. How did they get all those chains on his arms? He looked like he could break out of them if he tried. 

"It's so nice to see you out of your room." You spoke up and that was not the first thing you thought would come out of your mouth and neither did everyone else judging by the weird looks you were receiving from them. Fuck it, if you're going to be weird you're going to embrace it. Finally, the last person out of his room was Hannibal wearing a...mouthguard. You waved at him with a smile even though you were confused. How were they supposed to eat? Hannibal has a mouth guard on and Pyramidhead was literally shackled. When did you start calling him Pyramid Head? Did he have a name? He has to.

"How are you not frightened of him?" You turned to one of the guards and shrugged your shoulders with an easy-going smile. 

"No need to be." You didn't want to give too much information but, you were feeling a bit confident about them. It'll take time but, you'll slowly warm up to them as they would to you. Even Hannibal and Pyramid head. You still were concerned as to how Pyramidhead was going to eat since he couldn't move his arms. All of those chains were ridiculous. You made it to breakfast where you saw the food was brought to Pyramidhead and Hannibal while the others were online getting their food. You felt a wave of indignance when you noticed they didn't even take off a few chains, he physically couldn't eat. At least Hannibal was allowed to take off the mouthguard but, how in the world was Pyramidhead going to eat?

"Why are you staring so hard at him, huh?" You looked behind you at a security guard you hadn't seen before. "Who gives a shit if the freak eats or not. One less thing we got to worry about." He thought he was enticing you with the conversation and he wasn't. He irritated you because despite their past, despite who they are, they are still people who deserve basic human rights and needs. Even Hannibal was eating! 

"Hmm." You just listened to him talk with the others while your eyes kept looking back at him staring down at the food unmoving. You felt so bad for him and what you were thinking of doing was probably going to have you lose a limb or get a broken hand. In the best-case scenario, he just ignores you and you're humiliated for trying. Worth a shot. After you grabbed your plate you got out of the line and stood to the side thinking of what to do. Fuck, fuck it. Fuck it. 

"Y/N what are you doing?" You ignored Randall as you walked across the lunchroom and sat down directly next to Pyramidhead. It was silent. Dead silent. You knew everyone was staring you felt it and what you were about to do was even crazier. You turned to Pyramid head and almost jumped out of your seat at the piercing, glowing red eyes. You do not know what kind of eyes you expected but, you weren't expecting red, nor for half his face to be scarred. How were you able to see his face? 

"Hi." You smiled at him and all he did was stare at you. You were both nervous and feeling brave. Stupidity you would call it. Before you could lose your nerves, you gestured to the food never breaking eye contact. "Would you like my help?" He stared at you for a solid minute. 60 seconds. You were ready to call defeat and take the embarrassment when he gave a slight nod and you visibly perked up. Breakfast was cold waffles, cold sausages, and cold eggs with hot orange juice. They did it on purpose but, food is food. With swiftness, you poured syrup over the waffles, and ketchup on his eggs just in case. You used a knife and fork to cut the waffles up the best you could and with your left hand, you started feeding him and eating your own food with your right. You heard utensils hitting the tables. 

"What." You glanced up to see the other nurses, Randall, and the guards slacked-jawed as you fed him. You weren't sure what was more shocking, the fact that you were feeding him or the fact that he was letting you. Probably both. 

"He needs to eat." That was all you said and you glanced over at the others and Bo's reaction was priceless. He was so stunned that when you met his eyes you had a snarky grin. You told them that you weren't going to go anywhere. You were here to stay. This continued as you fed him with your left hand and ate your food with your right. It was funny having everyone watch you but, you didn't care. The fork broke for some reason once you fed him the last of the eggs so you used your hand to feed him the sausages which he happily obliged. You had him drink the orange juice with a straw. You both finished at the same time and you threw both of your plates out. It was still 30 minutes left so you spent the time watching stuff on YouTube in between both of you just in case he was interested.

"Why did you do that?" You turned to Danny with a smile and you felt like they all were seeing you in a new light. That's what you wanted. You wanted them to be willing to give you a chance and you think you just opened the door up for them.

"He needed to eat." That was the truth, how was he supposed to eat when they used a fucked up kama sutra to tie him up? When and how was he supposed to eat on his own? It wasn't going to happen. "So I helped him when he couldn't do it himself." It was silent for the rest of the breakfast time but, you knew they were all watching you. You just couldn't believe your luck that he allowed you to feed him. He could've been stubborn but, he was probably shocked too because no one had ever done that for him. Hell, like they all said usually,  the nurses set for them would've already run for the hills. You weren't about to do that. You truly believed they weren't that bad but, you learned not to say that out loud. Your actions speak for themselves. 

"Breakfast is over!" You nodded and patted Pyramid on the shoulder moving back to allow the guards to grab him and you watched as they grabbed everyone else. You knew you were going to be the talk of the day but, you didn't care. Everyone deserves to eat. You stood in the cafeteria waving at all of them even if they didn't wave back, even if they just stared at you. You felt like you just made things a little easier, a little better for you. 

------------------------------------------

It was about to be lunchtime and you had found out after breakfast that they have weekly activities for everyone and that was something exciting to look forward to. You thought this would be the perfect time to get to know everyone. Also, it was another time besides eating when they weren't holed up in their rooms. 

"Hey Y/N, we are bringing the Executioner again for lunch, just as chained up..." You already knew what Randall was hinting at and you smiled. 

"I do not mind feeding him again." You didn't though, for someone so imposing and intimidating he was rather docile. You really hoped he stayed that way. You were hoping no one would trigger him. Once again you waited in your favorite spot and greeted everyone the same, this time getting acknowledgments, even slight head nods, from all of them. The Legion for once didn't have a quip to say. Freddy was just looking at you. They really were shook with Pyramidhead, huh? They were going to be shocked again. Of course, Pyramid Head and Hannibal were last and you went into the cafeteria to get your own food while Hannibal and Pyramid Head were given their food while everyone else was online. Exactly, what you did this morning for breakfast, you grabbed your food and sat down next to him. For lunch, it was cut-up fruit, water, juice, and a sandwich. With your left hand, you fed him and with your right hand, you ate your own food. 

"She really is doing it again." That was one of the women from Legion talking and you couldn't help but smirk to yourself. How else, was he going to eat?

"She's not scared of him." You weren't, probably should be but, you couldn't find it in you to be scared. He was someone you wanted to get along with just like everyone else in here. It was your nature. 

"Hey Y/N, you're alright over there?" You turned to one of the guards with a smile while still feeding yourself and Pyramidhead. 

"Yes, I am perfectly fine." You turned to give Pyramidhead a smile while the two of you finished lunch. Once done you decided to watch YouTube placing the phone on his chained arms that were resting on the table for better leverage and all he did was grunt.

"Why are you doing this?" You turned to Freddy surprised he would ask that but, you looked around noticing everyone was curious. 

"Because I care."
