Bonnie's pov:
I woke up this morning feeling better than usual. As I showered I hummed to Freddy's showtime song, for some reason it was stuck in my head. It's finally Thanksgiving break. We have a whole week off of work. I think I'll go shopping with Chica later so we have food. Once I finished getting ready I went to the kitchen looking for Chica. I couldn't find her. I knocked on her door to see if she was there. "Come in." She said from inside. "Chica I was thinking we could go grocery shopping so we could have food for break." She was laying in bed, "I'm sorry but I feel sick, I don't think I should be out." I nodded, "okay I'll go myself, maybe Freddy would like to come." She looked a little confused but nodded, "okay, now leave, I don't know if it's contagious!" She said, chuckling. I left to find Freddy.

Freddy's pov:
I woke up pretty late, I'm still going through heavy long term withdrawal so I am very tired. I got up and drank some water from my mini fridge. Someone knocked at my door, "hey Freddy, are you busy?" It was Bonnie. "No you can come in." I opened the door for him, "whatchu need?" He looked at me, "I was gonna go to the store, do you want to come with me?" Why me? "Um sure, yeah I'll come just- let me get dressed first." He left and closed the door behind him. It feels strange to have a friend, what if I'm acting weird?

Bonnie's pov:
After Freddy got dressed we left in the company SUV, Freddy drove because I technically don't have a license, (none of us do actually but Freddy is a good driver) "So where are we going?" Freddy asked. "I was thinking Walmart, it's the closest." I said, turning up the AC. Once we got there we parked close. There weren't too many people in the parking lot, surprisingly. We decided to look for drinks and went to the soda aisle. When we got there, the soda aisle was blocked and an employee in a forklift was stocking it. Freddy looked at me with a mischievous smile, "I have an idea." I groaned comedically, "don't get us in trouble Freddy." He led me to the aisle over, there was kitty litter and other cat things. I gasped as Freddy jumped and grabbed the whole shelf of kitty litter, tipping it over. The shelf slammed into the floor and kitty litter scattered everywhere, making a huge crashing noise. "Freddy!!" I looked over at the employee, he had stopped the forklift. Freddy went back over to him and I followed. "Um sir, there's a mess in the aisle over." He said, he looked like he was dying to laugh. The worker glared at him, "I don't think so, I saw you knock that shelf over and your going to help clean it up or you two can leave the store." Freddy looked at me, "run!" He booked it in the other direction, I didn't waste any time and followed. Once I caught up to Freddy he was laughing so hard. "Freddy that's such a dick move!" I said, laughing anyways. We ran across the store and into to the clothing aisle, we decided to hide there. "you gotta admit that was fun." Freddy said, chuckling. "You really like causing trouble." I said, also laughing. So he has a playful side. I liked this Freddy a lot more than the other one. Eventually, some employees found us and we got kicked out of the store (without buying anything we needed). "Well, what now?" I said, looking at Freddy. "Next store I guess." I sighed, "we need to actually shop this time." Freddy laughed, "alright sounds good." After we went to the store and got the groceries we headed right back to the pizzaria. I noticed that I really like being around Freddy, he makes me feel understood. He feels, familiar... Someone who I can be myself with.

Freddy's pov:
I don't know what's happening with me and Bonnie, I just want to be with him all the time. He's helped me in a way nobody in my life has helped me before. I think I might see him as a little more than a friend. Anyways, it was almost dinner time so I walked out to see what everyone was doing. Chica was resting in her bed, still sick so I guessed that dinner was on us. "BONNIE WHERE ARE YOU?" He came around the corner, "why are you yelling so loud?" I shrugged, "I dunno." He chuckled, "what did you need?" I started to walk to the kitchen, "I was wondering if you wanted to help cook dinner?" He nodded, "of course. What are we gonna make?" I shrugged, "how about spaghetti?" He nodded, "that sounds good." I nodded and started looking for noodles, "okay, I guess I'll start the noodles." After I found them I realized that I have no clue how to make spaghetti. I looked at Bonnie, "Hey uh, Bonnie?" He looked at me, "yeah?" I giggled, "I have no idea how to do this." He giggled, "me neither." After I found the noodles, I put them in a pot. "Okay I guess I'll boil these till they get uh, noodley?" Bonnie found some pizza sauce in the fridge, "I think this'll work." I nodded and started filling the pot with water. Bonnie handed me the sauce, "we should cook the noodles in the sauce." I took his advice and I poured the whole container in with the noodles, "okay, I'll boil it and stir till something happens." Bonnie laughed. I think we messed up because eventually the concoction started bubbling over the edge of the pot. "Oh shit!" I fumbled to pick up the pot and burned my hand, "FUCK!" I said putting my hand under the faucet. Bonnie rushed to turn the stove off, "are you okay?" I looked at him, then looked at the mess and started laughing, "Chica's going to kill us." Bonnie shrugged, "I won't tell if you don't." I smiled, "we need to clean this shit up." After we "carefully" hid the evidence of our mess We decided to just eat leftover pizza. Every time I'm with Bonnie I just don't want to leave. He makes me feel like I'm whole again. He's like a best friend to me now.

Someone knocked at my door, "hello?" My dad walked in. "What are you doing?" He looked at me with his blank stare. "Are you ready?" My stomach dropped. I have been dreading this, my birthday party is at the diner. "Get ready because we are leaving soon." He left my room. My big brother didn't ride with us, he drove with his friends. Once we got to the diner, my brothers had already made it to the diner. I was hesitant to go inside. As soon as I walked in I was overwhelmed by the smell of grease and kids screaming and laughing. I looked around for some familiar faces but only found my brother, he and his friends were talking and looking at me. I decided to go look at the robots. They were big, I only really like Freddy, the others scare me. The way that they moved was so mesmerizing though, I found myself starting at them intently.
Freddy woke.
