Alex's POV
Jumping out of bed excited for the day I remember why jumping is a terrible idea. Being in a small apartment while 6'2" isn't exactly fun unless you like bumping your head... a lot. Running to my wardrobe I get dressed in a white undershirt and leather jacket... hey I remember this. Me, Steven, and Y/N used to be in a club and we made custom jackets! I wonder how they're doing... I'll give them a call later. Nearly slipping on a towel on my way to the bathroom I brush my teeth making sure not to miss anything, comb and gel my hair, and all of this after washing my face. Being done with all of that I walk out of the bathroom and into the main room. It's a bit small but bigger than my bedroom that's for sure! Checking my front door I notice a small pile of letters laying on the ground. Checking them it's mostly just bills and such. This is going to take a while.

After taking care of some boring bills I open my front door to go mail them to find a "Now Hiring" for... "Freddy's Anime Convention" isn't that where Y/N works? Grabbing it and folding it up I stuff it into my pocket before walking to the mail drop off to send out my bills, luckily I reminded myself not to overpay out of laziness. Walking back to my apartment I take a deep breath in of the early morning air. Getting inside I grab my car and house keys after making a quick sandwich and grabbing a bottle of water. Getting in my car I drive off to the anime convention, I'm not down on my luck, rather quite the opposite. I've been rather fortunate to afford my apartment after college. Too bad I've never been able to use my degree yet. I would have tagged along with Y/N to the Afghan volunteer work but I had some medical things to take care of so I couldn't go. Unfortunately he came back with a different state of mind. Steven and I went to go pick him up from the air base where he landed at but he seemed to be focussed on something else and spaced out a lot... he also seemed on edge... it freaked us out but when he told us what happened... I just... I finally arrived at the convention center and stepped out of my car after being forced to park far away, this place must be busy during the day. Locking it I walk towards the convention center making sure to stay out of the way of nearing cars. Eventually I got to the main doors, pulling out the advert for the job I see that it was for the night guard position paying $50 an hour. Like what Y/N would say, "If you're getting paid above minimum wage at a security job then you're guarding at Fort Knox I swear." We were talking about different security jobs in general but it still applies. Stepping inside I get greeted by a beautiful rabbit animatronic with rather large assets wearing what a magician's assistant would wear with a torn purple crop top with fingerless leather gloves and red painted cheeks to simulate a blush, another thing she was shorter than me, probably 5'8". "Hello and welcome to Freddy's Anime Convention! How can I help you today sir!" The animatronic said in a very bubbly and kind voice. "Hi! I'm looking for where to apply for the night guard position!" I replied with a big smile, I've always been the optimistic one of the three of us. She straightened her pasture as she spoke, "Follow me!" I could tell she was starting to fake her smile and that it was no longer genuine. I try to make some small talk since the atmosphere immediately got tense, "So what's your name?" She replied quickly as if she hated me, "Bonnie, and you?" I felt bad as if I was waisting her time, "A-Alex, I'm sorry did I do something wrong?" She released a deep sigh, "No... we just don't like new night guards, they're all nothing but perverts! The last time I tried to befriend one I nearly got fucked!" Appalled by what I just heard I cant help but feel bad for her, "I'm sorry that happened, it's a night guards job to protect not screw." I watched as she leaned back resting her hands on the back of her head, "Glad to know someone understands! It's so frustrating 'cause they think we're nothing but sex toys and it's getting on my nerves! Anyway we're here now... good luck." I cant help but smile to know I made someone's day better, "Thanks for the help! Have a good day!" I walk inside the office humming to myself and as I do so I look around to see a room that resembles the backrooms. Except it has a metal desk in the middle with filing cabinets that may as well be overflowing. Sitting at one of the chairs on the side closest to me I clear my throat to signal to the person in the chair on the other side of the desk. "Huh? Oh hello! You must be here for the night guard position! The name's Henry!" He sticks his hand out and in doing so I grab it and shake it, "Yeah I'm here for it, any paper work that I need to fill out? I can also take any maintenance work if you need me to! I graduated Harvard with a few friends now that I mention it!" He straightens his posture as he glides a short pile of paper work towards me, "O-Oh! Who did you graduate with and with what degree?" Leaning back in my chair I take a second to think, "I graduated with my buddy Steven and best friend Y/N. My degree is in advanced robotics and mechanical engineering. I wonder what they're doing now." I look back at him as his face fills with sadness and he tries his best to fake a smile, "T-That's great to hear... just fill out these forums and we'll get you set up with a uniform and everything..." Grabbing the forums I fill out my information, signing the dotted line, and filling out some questions I pass it back to him. "Great... I see here your clothing size it mens extra large? Just to confirm." Henry replies with curiosity in his voice. I grab the collar of my shirt and pull on it to see the size, "That would be correct." He shuffles in one of the desk drawers and hand me a uniform, badge, and flashlight. Henry, "Would tonight be good for you to come in?" I think about it for a second and consider it, "Yeah sure, I have nothing going on. Quick question." I notice his posture stiffen as I asked, "Y-Yes?" I adjust myself before asking, "Do you know where or what happened to Y/N? I haven't heard from him for a while." I watch him gulp in fear, "N-No I haven't." I raise an eyebrow before getting up to leave, "Thanks, let me know if you find anything." Opening the door I see the animatronic from earlier standing there with a confused look, "Are you okay Bonnie?" I wave my hand in front of her face and to my surprise she jumps on me and kisses me on the cheek. "Thank you for listening~." She said with a lustful look. "No problem... you mind letting go? You're not heavy it's just uncomfortable." I watch as she lets go and faces away embarrassed, ruffing up her hair I walk past leaving the anime convention. Now where should I get lunch?
