The rest of the weekend went absolutely awful.You turned off your phone not willing to talk to any of your colleagues.You were ashamed of yourself.The hard realization what you've done fell on you like a rock pushing you to the ground.The thought of quitting got more possessive by the minute.You were afraid of the further interactions with the guys.But again it was obvious that you had to get back to work.You just had to.Your mother finally decided that you are old enough to be by yourself most of the time.And because she got bored being alone all the time.No.Her job opened a place for someone to work at the main office which allowed her to a) not stay at home and have social life and b) get a good raise.You felt bad:hadn't slept in two days basically running on a few energy drinks and 5 or maybe six cups of coffee.The feeling of nausea followed your every step making you incredibly dizzy.Your head hurt constantly causing you to throw up sometimes.The old wound has opened not letting you live a good life.You didn't have anyone to blame for this but yourself.But Monday came and you had to leave your room once again and face your fear of the unknown.Groaning you got up from your bed putting on your clothes reluctantly.Your mind was making up different scenarios about how they would all turn on you and hate your guts till the rest of your life.You didn't even look at the time at this point.Because no matter when you'll come it will still be an empty closed children's pizzeria with possibly only Scott in there somewhere.Boss stopped checking on you after the second day shift.On one hand it made it a lot easier to skip sometimes and on the other it worried something inside.You turned on your phone to see if it still had some power left.20%.Not much but enough.The main point was not to waste it by scrolling your fyp on socials.You looked at yourself in the mirror and sighed sadly.You ruined it.Again.But,oh well,what can you do if that already happened.You grabbed your keys and left leaving a note behind.

Getting the key to the main entrance from your pocket you felt a sudden urge to run away.But you didn't.You knew you had to earn money,you knew you had to get over what happened.It didn't mean anything to you.Or did it?It probably didn't mean anything to the guys either,hopefully.Or did it?You didn't know.Your mind was pacing back and forth making you almost freeze in one spot.But you can't run forever.One day you'll have to face the consequences either way.
The door creaked open letting the cold winter air together with you in.You shrugged seeing an empty "Party Hall".Everything looked like it froze in time long ago, only animatronic robots reminding you that something in here still lives.You sighed heading in the direction of the locker room.
The flickering light on the ceiling was almost out making everything even more creepy.You opened your locker and put all your stuff inside not even caring to fold it nicely.It looked sad.You got your phone from your back pack and put in the ear phones.You weren't going to play any music but to just shut the whole world out by silencing it.The annoying ringing in your ears got only louder and louder.Your phone buzzed.It was Boss:

"Hey Y/N!Glad you're back today!Look, I know you're not a technician and stuff but could you probably pay attention to the animatronics during the day?The've been malfunctioning during the test show a few days ago but you already know that.Could you possibly try tugging on some wires or something?Okay,great,thanks!"

You sighed in defeat.What could go wrong this time?You wanted to scream out of frustration as if having kissed the two of your co-workers at the welcoming party wasn't enough of a burden already.But work is work.The one thing was:you had no idea about the animatronic mechanics.Boss probably assumed that after a week there you got a hold of some manual on it or something or he just was going to get a little cheap on calling the qualified person for that.Having nothing better to do anyway you made your way back to the robots on the main stage.
Bonnie looked different.Like ,all sorts of different.His guitar was laying on the floor next to him,his bowtie was abscent,his ears were pointed downwards,jaws wide open,hands up as if he froze in the last movement it was doing.His bright magenta pink eyes looked as if they followed your movements.Freddy was side eyeing you from his spot.Chica was fine.At least it looked like it from your point of view.And there was that weird almost sickening smell coming from them.They smelled...Dead?Like a rotten meat that was long forgotten somewhere in the fridge.You assumed that it was probably some rodent that got inside and couldn't get out later.You grabbed a little stool to help you work on the animatronics.
-How does Scott manages them...?-You asked out loud looking for any indication of an opening chest cavity mechanism on them.You pushed a small button under Bonnie's jaw and his face fell off with a loud metallic thud.You squealed out of surprise and jumped to the side nearly falling from the stool.The open wires could be seen behind the mechanical eye mechanism.-Well,at least that's something...-You tugged on a dark green wire.The bunny moved its hand a few inches up.You pulled a little harder making sure that its working fully.
-What are you doing?-You heard a familiar voice behind.
-Nothing!-You turned around looking like a naughty kid.Scott was standing at the stairs to the stage.His arms crossed and the overall look of utter confusion.
-Who gave you the permission to touch them?-He asked seriously,making a few steps in the direction of the stage.You got down from your prop.
-Boss told me to "tug on some wires or something" to fix those...-You said pointing at the giant robots behind.
-You sure that's how you fix things?-He tilted his head to the side.-Put Bonnie's face back on,please.And,for God's sake,don't touch anything else!-He sounded a little annoyed which made you hurriedly put everything back together.You clasped bunny's face back on making sure it clicked at the end.-Good.Now get down here!-Scott pointed at the stairs like you were a little child that didn't understand what he was saying.You did exactly that standing in front of him with your head down and a foot digging into the floor.
-I'm sorry...
-For what exactly?-He asked obviously not getting your behavior.
-For tempering with the animatronics...
-And?
-And possibly putting myself at the risk of being killed.
-Apologies accepted.-He nodded slightly.-You should've asked me for help.You are not a mechanic as far as I know.
-I didn't know if you were there and I didn't want to be more of a bother than I am already.-You shrugged looking in absolutely any direction rather than Scott's.Scott sighed annoyingly.
-Who told you that?I don't remember saying that you are a bother...-If his face was exposed he would pinch his nose bridge.-Fine,that's fine.Just don't touch anything on them,okay?
-Okay...-You said,still digging the floor with your shoe.
Scott sighed once again and left you to yourself in the "Party Hall".You knew he was probably not in the best mood so you decided not to mention anything to him.He didn't need another reason to be disappointed in you.
