All I think about now- (Michael Afton x Fem Reader)

Chapter 33 - One Last time

3rd person POV

The two men were in the car, trying to get to the pizzeria as fast as possible. "Michael, I have an escape route for you, but that's your decision" "Henry you know very well that I have 2 people now that mean a lot to me. I can't die yet." Michael shook his head. What kind of a question was Henry even asking? Henry began explaining to Michael how everything would go.

They arrived at the pizzeria and quickly entered. "I'll be outside here" he handed him the gas and matches. "One last time" Michael sighed. He couldn't wait for all of this to be over now. He entered the pizzeria. He opened one gas bottle and went around the building. The strong smell lingered in his nose causing him to feel nauseous and a headache. After the bottle was finished he grabbed the matches and made his way to the back room. "I hope you are ready father" There wasn't anything for him to do now. This was all going to burn down. No use in ordering, printing, and cleaning.

He heard the clanking of metal coming from the vents as his father appeared "You aren't going to leave your poor father here now are you?" his robotic voice made Michael wince. "This is all you, you ruined my life!" he grabbed the matches and turned them on "NO MICHAEL!" "Goodbye father" He tossed the match and ran out of the room "MICHAEL NOO DONT LEAVE ME HERE!"

Michael got up on the vents and crawled through them as fire began rising. He could feel his body heat rise up.

"This is where your story ends. And to you my brave volunteer, Michael keep y/n safe"

He got off at the corner and went through the back room and out the door through the alleyway. "Henry!" Michael called. But he continued to hear him through the speakers from inside the building.

"I am remaining as well as the rest of you. I am nearby."

"This place will not be remembered and the memory of everything that started this can finally begin to fade away"

"And to you monsters trapped in the corridors. Be still. And give up your spirits. They don't belong to you"

"For most of you, I believe there is peace and perhaps, more waiting for you after the smoke clears"

"Although for one of you, the darkest pit of hell that has opened to swallow you whole. So don't keep the Devil waiting.. old friend"

"My daughter, if you can hear me, I knew you would return as well"

"It's in your nature to protect the innocent"

"I'm sorry that on that day, the day you were shut out and left to die"

"No one was there to lift you up into their arms. the way you lifted others into yours"

"And then what became of you. I should have known you wouldn't be content to disappear"

"Not my daughter, I couldn't save you then"

"So let me save you now"

"This ends for all of us. End communication"

The fire burned down everything with it. The animatronics. The memories children had there. Everything was burnt down and would be forgotten.

Michael quickly jumped into Henry's car with tears in his eyes. "Goodbye Henry" He looked at the building one last time before driving away.

At least this was all over right?

Michael arrived at his and y/n's house. Now they would live in peace. He took the key out of the ignition and the engine stopped. He took one last deep breath before walking in the house. He looked over at the living room to see the TV on. Y/n was laying on her back taking a nap. "I'm back" he whispered as he caressed her cheek and moved a strand of hair out of her face. She smiled slightly still in a deep sleep. Now he couldn't wait to spoil his precious wife.
He sat on the other side of the couch wondering how things would go now. Would everything really be okay? Did Henry really stay behind in the fire? The biggest worry was off his chest. His fathers sinful doings. The pizzeria. His siblings who were now resting in peace.

He gazed over at the peaceful girl. He was in love with her. The amount of time she had stayed with him, even after all of this she still stayed. He sighed happily knowing he would have another chance at having a happy family. He wouldn't dare act the way his father did. He would treat his child and his wife with love and affection. He swore to protect the both as he couldn't do with his siblings and his mother.

He took out his phone and began scrolling through homes selling in California. Specifically looking for a nice modern home with 2 bedrooms. He kicked off his shoes and laid down on the couch continue searching for the perfect home. That's when he came upon a single story house. 3 bedrooms and 2 baths. Perfect he thought to himself. Now all he really needed was a job to help keep them stable financially. A lot of adult things were going to happen now. Taxes, bills, etc.

But really that was nothing to him. It didn't worry his mind that much. As he would have a chance at a whole new life.

A new chapter in his story.

He stood up deciding he would help do the daily chores. It consisted of sweeping, washing dishes, dusting the windows, and cleaning every room in the house. This hasn't been done in a while, and he wanted to keep it clean for his wife and their child. He finishes up with the last of its cleaning as Y/n woke up from her deep slumber.

Y/N's POV
I blink my eyes open to remove the blur. The living room then became clear and I realized the TV show I had on had been turned off. I slowly get up and look around the house to see it spotlessly clean. "Michael?" I shouted out but there was no answer for a few seconds, until I heard footsteps running downstairs "Yeah?" "You're.. you're back!" I go up to him and hug him tightly. "Yeah i'm back" he smiles warmly as his hands runs down repeatedly up and down my back. I look up at him to see he's sweat glistening and his clothes all worn out and damped at the sleeves from water, i'm assuming. "Why did you clean?" I caress his cheek with the back of my hand. "I needed to keep this place clean for us" he places his hands lovingly on my stomach and looked back up at me. "You're really sweet" I leaned my head against his chest as he kissed the top of my head.

"Where's Henry?" his heartbeat grew faster "um.. he's.. he's gone" my heart sank. "How.. How could he be gone?" I looked up into Michael's eyes. He shrugged "He wanted to be with his daughter" I nod my head and hum in response. "Go shower i'll make us dinner" I smiled again. "Are you sure? I can make it if you are too tired-" "I think I got it from here" "If you say so" he places the broom against the wall as he makes his way upstairs. We're we reallg okay now. That thought worries me.

He always comes back.
