Chapter 23: On Your Own

You slowly walked down the halls, avoiding the toy animatronics staring at you. They can't hurt you or your friends and family, because they will soon be free. You finally made it back to the office, with a depressed face. "Oh God! Finally your back!" You looked up, to be instantly hugged by Scott. You were speechless, as your eyes widened. "Um... Hey, Scott? It's 6:00... So the atmosphere is awkward enough..." Fritz joked.

"Oh uhm... Sorry *ahem* that was childish of me..." Scott said, as he let go of you, and looked embarrassed. You shook your head, and reached for your bag. You left the office, as the lights turned on, revealing the animatronics in their proper places. You glared at the animatronics, as they got scared of you, but didn't move from their spot. You went out the pizzeria, with the gang following behind you. "Hey, (Y/N)? Need a ride?" Jeremy asked, placing a hand on your shoulder. You shook your head, as you heard a familiar honking of a car horn.

You looked at your left, "Hey, (Y/N)!" It was David, Sue's boyfriend, he has hazelnut hair, and blue eyes. You walked up towards him, and smiled. He got out the car, and hugged you. "How was work?" He asked, with a smile. You smiled, and gave him a thumbs up.

You didn't notice the guys glaring at David.

"Who the fuck is he...!?!?" Vincent thought.

"Why is he hugging (Y/N)?!" Mike thought.

"Who does he think he is?!" Fritz thought.

"Who is this guy? Why is he hugging (Y/N)?!" Jeremy thought.

"Why does (Y/N) look so happy?! Why is she happy with him?!" Scott thought.

All five boys, glaring at David.

"Oh hey... Are those your co-workers?" David pointed at the gang. You simply nodded, as David walked towards them. "The name's David Herberts, nice to meet you!" He said, as shaking Mike's hand. "Mike Schmidt." Mike said. "Jeremy Fitzgerald." Jeremy said, shaking his hand. "Fritz Smith." Fritz said, as he tried to contain his glare. "Scott Cawthon." Scott said plainly. "Vincent. Just Vincent" Vincent said, as he rejected David's handshake.

David gave out a smile, as he looked at his watch. "Hey, (Y/N). Can we talk in private?" David asked. You nodded, as you walked away fron the guys. "What is it, David?" You asked. "Well, Sue wants you to find another job..." David said. "I know that, but you know it's not easy to find a job, that pays this much!" You whispered at him. He looks at you and sighs. "Besides... I have good friends here" you smiled at him. He smiled back, as he pat you on the head, since you're like a midget towards him.

"Also, Sue wants me to drive you home. She doesn't want you to hang out, with the guys alot... Since you know.... You're the only girl... And five guys... One van.... You know~" he nudged his elbow, unto your arm. You gave him a disgusted look, and said, "Ewww! No it's nothing like that!". Your reaction, just made him laugh. "Okay, we better get going, Sue's expecting you to come home... Without a scratch." David said, with sarcasm. You giggled, as you waved at the guys goodbye. They waved back, and gave out a fake smile.

You sat on the passenger seat, and placed your seat belt on. "So, Sue's been staying at your place?" You asked David. "Yeah... But to be honest, she's kinda like a naggy landlady... It's been killing me..." David said. You giggled, as you looked at the blue sky. "Hm... I wonder if I get to see the sky this blue again..." You whispered. "What was that?" David asked, steering the wheel, to the left. "Oh... It's nothing, just wandering in my thoughts..." You said, as you laughed nervously. It was an awkward silence, until you decided to break it.

"Are you mad about me?" You asked David. He sighed, and asked, "Why would I be mad?". You looked at the window, and watched the houses pass by. "It's about Beth, isn't it?" David asked, as he stopped the car. You didn't answer, as he sighed. "Listen, I know that you miss her... I miss her, too... She's my little sister after all... And I don't blame you at all... You did your best, and that's okay." David reassured you, as you leaned your head back.

(Me: Sorry, David is Beth's big brother. Sorry I didn't mention before.)

"That's easy for you to say..." You mumbled, as David sighed.

~30 Minutes Later~

As you and David arrived, at his house, you stepped out the car, and sighed at the sight. David unlocked the door, and you got instantly pounced by your older sister, Sue. "(Y/N)!!!! I'M SO GLAD YOU'RE BACK! ARE YOU HURT?! DID THEY DO ANYTHING TO HURT YOU?!" Sue was really worried.

You shrugged, as Sue kept on hugging ou. "I was so worried... Why the fuck did you run away?!" Sue yelled. You didn't answer. Which made Sue very uncomfortable. "Just answer me, for God's sake! I've been worrying my ass out! Do you know how much I care for you?!" She yelled, as you shrugged. "Are you done yet?" You asked, as you looked at her with an irritated look. She was shock. "How dare you?! I've been so worried about you! And you say that?!" She yelled. "It's not my fault. You weren't supposed to worry about me." You said, and received a hard slap on the face.

You were there trying to register it on our mind. You slowly tilted your head, looking at Sue. "What happened to the old, (Y/N)!!?? I was so worried, I could have had a heart attack! Don't you know, how much I love you?! If you don't then... JUST LEAVE!" Sue yelled, as she stormed into her room.

You shrugged, as David gave out a sigh, then followed Sue. "I'm not welcomed in this world anymore...." You mumbled, as you open the door, and slammed it shut. You walked down the sidewalk, until your phone rang. It was Boss.

"Hello, Boss?"

"Hello, Ms. (Y/N). I'm calling a meeting in thirty minutes. In the pizzeria, everyone from the night shift, will attend. Do you understand, Ms. (Y/N)?"

"Yes, Sir... I will be there in thirty minutes... Or less."

~End~

You sighed, as you placed your phone in your pocket. You pulled out, a handkerchief, and placed it on your cheek. You grabbed a taxi cab, and went to the pizzeria.

~25 Minutes Later~

"Stop here, Sir." You said, as you payed, and left the taxi. You opened the doors, and saw the place. Children laughing, and eating pizza, with their parents. You sighed, as pain stung your cheek. "Damn. Sue's smack really hurt. I guess I really did deserve it. Since I was being such a bitch." You said, as you entered the Boss' office.

"Good morning, Boss." You said, as you sat on a seat, as the guys stood. "Are you alright, Ms. (Y/N)?" Boss asked, as you removed the handkerchief from your cheek, realizing there was a scratch. "I just got bitch-slapped. But in other words, I'm fine. Just going to put some ice on it later." You said, as the boss nodded.

"Now, I called you all here for a very important reason. Tomorrow, my daughters, will be visiting and will also be in charge until I come back." Boss paused, to drink water. "What? Where are you going?" Jeremy asked. "I'll be going somewhere with my wife, on a vacation." Boss answered, as we all sighed in approval.

"Anyways... I've been thinking. I'll be making alternate work positions for all of you, except you, Ms. (Y/N). You are staying at the Night Shift." Boss said, as you groaned in your mind, but nodded in the outside. "Yes, sir." You bowed your head, as Boss continued.

"Alright then, Mike, Scott, and Vincent you'll be security, that means you are moved into the day shift. Fritz and Jeremy, you'll be making sure, if there isn't harm in the animatronics. Ms. (Y/N), stays at the Night Shift.", your eyes widened, and so did the gang. "I understand, Sir. May I be excused?" You requested, as the Boss turned his chair around. "Go ahead, the meeting is dissmissed. You will get your uniforms in the storage room." Boss said, as you left the room.

"Are you sure, about this (Y/N)? I mean... It's Night 4!" Jeremy said, as he placed a hand on your shoulder. You simply nodded, and headed to the kitchen. You see a few chefs, and waitresses, and waiters. "Hey, watcha doin in here, Ms. (Y/N)?" A girl with short black hair asked. "Just need to get some ice, Ms..Uh..." You said, as she smiled. "No problem, Sugar. Oh name's Joy~" she said, as she noticed the huge red mark on your cheek.

"Where did that come from, hun?" She asked, as she pointed at the red mark. "Meh, family problems. Being a bitch, that's all." You said, as she giggled. "Well ya be careful now, hun!" She cheerfully said, as you left the kitchen with an ice pack on your cheek.

"Hey, (Y/N)!" You looked at the direction, where the voice came from, it was Jeremy and the gang. "Yeah?" You asked, as you walked towards them. "Are you seriously sure, that you can handle this night on your own?" Scott asked worryingly.

You simply nodded, and smiled. "By the way, what happened to your cheek? That must've hurt." Fritz asked. You nervously laughed, as they gave you a confused look. "Family problems, that's all..." You said, as you walked out the pizzeria. "I'll be at the house, Jeremy. Don't worry!" You said, as you walked down the sidewalk, towards Jeremy's House.

~40 minutes later~

You finally arrived at Jeremy's house. You plopped down on the couch, and groaned. "God... Why am I, the only one in the Night Shift?". You stood up from the couch, and walked up the stairs. You went to your bedroom and changed into a Walk The Moon band shirt, with grey shorts, and a pair of black converse.

You just sat on your bed, while holding your phone. You looked through your text messages, notcing your message history of Shadow Bon, were gone. "The fuck? Where are they?!" You whispered to yourself.

You searched through your messages, finally seeing a Shadow Bon message. It was only one.

"See you tonight, darling...."

~End of Chapter 23~
