Chapter 14
The ride back home was rather,silent.
But at least I knew that she was still in good terms with me.
Speaking to someone really helped my inside world,and finally got to tell her the full story.
But now,it was time to fix my mistakes and find my son.
"Vincent?"
Her voice made me snap out of my thoughts as I closed the driver's door,and we walked towards my house.
"Are you sure you want to go alone?I am willing to come with you."
I couldn't help but smile,unlocking the front door.
"There is no need.But if i do change my mind I will let you know."
She returned the smile,entering the house and letting herself fall on the couch.
"It is so weird how just some hours ago you didn't want to see me and now we are back to normal."
She slightly sat up,lowering her head with a sigh.
"I am sorry just." Her voice trailed off,avoiding my eye contact."I guess I should have given you a chance to talk."
My hand carefully ruffled her hair,making her softly giggle.
"Don't worry about it.I have learned to forgive."
My body sat next to hers,and she grabbed the remote turning the TV on.
"Oh!The Immortal and the Restless!I am going to make popcorn!" She said with excitement,standing up and walking towards the kitchen.
I chuckled,turning my body and looking back at her.
She hummed,opening a cabinet and taking a big bowl,as she was searching for the popcorn bag.
My heart thumped against my chest.
I slightly gripped the couch,softly heavy breathing.
Oh God,no,this is not a good time to have your feelings emerge.
Her eyes looked over to me,slightly chuckling.
"Why are you looking at me like that silly?"
I blinked,my dark cheeks slightly blushing as I gazed away at the glass screen of the TV.
She returned back to the couch,sitting next to me as she rested the bowl on her lap.
"I may be undead,but you're heartless!"The vampire said to the blonde woman.
"You need to see your son!"
"The baby isn't mine!"
"He ate the cat!" She said pointing at the baby who had a cat tail in his mouth.
"Sounds like something he got from your side of the family!"
The woman frowned."Well how's this? I'm keeping the diamond ring."
"The joke's on you! I found it in a kids meal!"
She gasped,looking at him with glistening eyes."You bought a kids meal? Oh, Vlad!"
"Clara!"The vampire smiled and wrapped his arms around the female figure,kissing her with passion.
I stuffed my mouth with the last pieces of popcorn,as I couldn't help but be confused.
"That was the end?" The woman next to me questioned,as I noticed she was as confused as me.
I grabbed the remote to turn it off,but suddenly the narrator spoke.
"But what about the baby? What about the bad child support?
Stay tuned next season for all those answers and more!"
"This show has a second season?"
I found myself and (Y/N) were saying the same thing,looking at each other.
We started laughing,as I set the empty bowl on the coffee table.
"Oh man,I love those shitty soap opera shows."
I looked over to her smiling face,as she was looking through the channels.
"Yeah,i love them too." I said with a smile.
The feeling on my chest returned,making me huff.
Vincent stop.
Please stop.
This is not the time.
As my thoughts were lecturing my feelings,I didn't notice my hand was nearing her cheek.
My long fingers slightly caressed her soft cheek,making her softly gasp from the sudden touch.
She looked over to me,but I didn't say anything.
I kept my smile,as my fingers slowly caressed her cheek.
She smiled back,leaning slightly against my hand and closing her eyes.
Say it.
Say it!
The thumping got faster inside my chest,as if my heart was about to explode or jump out of my rib cage.
When she opened her eyes again,we were just inches away.
Her cheeks slightly blushed under my touch,watching her eyes were growing big.
Those feelings are torturing me.
With one move i can change everything,but why i can't do it?
Our noses slightly touched,making her softly breath heavily against my lips.
I looked into her (colour) eyes,and she looked into mine.
She let herself relax,closing her eyes once again.
She wants it.
She wants to kiss me,feel me and hold me close.
My lips inched closer for hers.
But I stopped.
I blinked my eyes open,seeing her relaxed face being against my palm.
Maybe,this wasn't meant to be.
Maybe,this isn't the right time.
Maybe in the end,I wasn't supposed to be with her.
I held back my feelings.
I held them back and locked them deep inside my heart.
Where they should have stayed.
I slightly pulled myself away,placing my lips on her forehead.
She fluttered her eyes open,both blushing but also having a hint of confusion in her eyes.
I simply smiled.
"Let's burn our remaining brain cells with more awful shows."
She chuckled,shaking her head as she grabbed the remote again,going through the channels.
I pulled myself away from her,swallowing hard.
"Relax." She said and rested her head against my shoulder,slightly laying against my body.
I cracked a small smile,wrapping my arm around her figure as I gazed at the TV.
~~
"Father."
"Father where are you?"
"I can't find you."
"Father,please."
"I am dying."
"Father."
I gasped,jotling my body up from the couch.
"Michael." I muttered with heavy breathing,feeling the cold sweat down my neck.
I tried taking deep breaths,running my fingers through my messy hair.
I looked around,noticing I was still in the living room.
The TV had gone into static,as (Y/N) was laying on the other couch,sleeping peacefully.
I glanced at the clock,noticing the hour.
Almost six in the morning.
I moved my body towards the bathroom,turning the light on.
I exhaled deeply,splashing my sweaty face with cold water.
I sighed,looking at myself in the mirror.
Just a few months ago you were a crazy man.
A month or so ago,you were almost dead.
Yet,you are here still standing,wanting to live as if nothing have happened before.
My hands were resting on the sink,gripping it slightly as I lowered my head.
Who am I kidding.
My past is chasing me.
I want to end it.
Michael.
I need to find Michael.
My blood might be in danger.
I need to go and find him now.
I exited the bathroom,going back to the living room to grab my car keys and jacket.
Then I remembered (Y/N).
No,I can't risk getting her hurt,this is my duty.
I pulled the blanket over her sleeping body,placing a kiss on her forehead.
She slightly smiled in her sleep,getting herself more comfortable on the couch.
I slowly closed the door behind me,walking towards my car.
Where is he,where.
Those were my thoughts as I sat on the driver's seat,tapping with my fingers the wheel.
When he left,there was no trace of him.
I couldn't find him.
But when that phone call happened a couple of years ago,the police was able to track the location of the phone call.
Obviously after some more research they dropped the case saying it was nothing worrying.
Lies.
But if I have to go back on that only phone call.
That means.
I have to go back in Circus Baby's Entertainment and Rental.
In the Sister Location.
I really don't want to.
But I have to try.
I started the engine,driving the car off the parking spot.
~~
I stopped outside the small building,exhaling deeply.
It was a long drive,but if it means finding my son then I will do it again.
The doors were rusty,and even with a push could open.
Which they did open with a push.
After pressing my body against the doors,they swung open,as dust started flying around the air.
I softly coughed,going towards the backroom where the elevator was.
Has it been that long?
Everything looks so old and full with dust.
I neared the elevator,pressing the button.
It slowly started going underground,making me slightly flinch from the rusty sounds and creaks.
The creaking doors opened.
After some crawling and avoiding spider webs,I finally made it in the Funtime Auditorium.
It was awfully quiet.
Almost eerie.
It really sent shivers down my spine.
I had a pocket flashlight,so I flashed around the Auditorium.
But something didn't seem right.
Why is the door of the scooping room open?
My legs trembled,not wanting to believe the bad thoughts in my head.
I rushed towards the room,flashing inside.
Animatronic body parts were all over the floor.
Funtime Freddy,Funtime Foxy and Ballora.
They were nothing but broken pieces.
I kept looking around,but i stopped of the sight of blood.
No.
Please no.
The scooper was covered in blood,as the scooping spot was covered in blood and guts too.
But it looked dry and old,like it was here for a long time.
Who.
Why.
Why would someone come in here in the first place.
I was confused,I was shaking and I wanted to deny all the thoughts about this blood being my son's.
"He wouldn't come in here.He said he doesn't want to step in these facilities anymore."
I kept denying it to myself.
But what if it was really my son's?
I fought back the tears and rushed out of the room,crawling back into the vents and towards the elevator.
I panted heavily,as the creaky elevator was going up.
This is crazy.
This is madness.
With a sigh I left quickly the cursed building,going back to my car.
Michael.
Please,let that blood not be yours.
I finally found my breath,but my chest was still stinging in pain.
I opened the car door,about to leave this place for good and never come back again.
Maybe he was somewhere else.
Maybe he is living his life and has a family.
I exhaled deeply,closing my eyes and trying to relax my mind.
"Out of all people,I didn't expect to see you here."
My eyes opened widely,as my hand gripped the open car door.
No,it can't be.
After all these years.
My head slowly turned back,meeting with two familiar eyes.
"Henry?"
