Another after school thing arose fpr michael casuing me having to take the late shift. It was good fpr me honestly, i had time to fix some of the mechanical issues that have been happening on the stage. Since the springlock have been in use much more than they were designed to be, they started to malfunction. And i got bonus time alone and bonus money; not much but still better than the minimum wage we get on average.
The sun was setting and the day shift workers started to leave. Henry- who started to work more after the incident- decided to stay late yet again. I heard he was working on another pizzeria. Thats just what we needed after the news of the missing children got out, thats what happens with an establishment filled with bored mothers with nothing to do but gossip. Thats not true though, its not gossip and i knew that. I witnessed what happened to one child with my own eyes. If i wanted to admit it or not. Either way my alone time wasn't going to be spent repeating that night in my head. I had much better things to occupy myself with.

I was sitting down working on the main stage panel for the attraction. it was where the music was supposed to be plaging from but over the past few days it had been glitching, and ended up fully shutting down earlier today. Instead of bringing in actual mechanics for the job they decided i would be able to fix it due to my dabble in fixing some electrical problems in the past. I obliged as i always do.

Sitting on the tiled dance floor was cold, but i payed no attention to that. My full focus was on the panel, making sure i dont mess anything up. I bit my lower lip and squinted, leaning in closer as i screwed the last bolt in, hoping that this would work. As i twisted it for the last time the stage lit up and music started playing. As i hoisted myself up from where i sat i heard a recognisable voice behind me.
"Isnt this a coincidence? Us meeting at such random places and such random times."
"I work here, you work here and we both work late hours, its not that random Mr. Afton." I couldnt deal with his humour today.
"Aw your no fun today." He whined, pouting almost.
"I should be leaving now." I attempted to walk away from him but instead he grabbed my arm tightly and pulled me in.
Swaying my body with his rhythmically.
"Ive always loved this song, since i was young i'd imagine myself dancing with a pretty woman to it."
"Sir, i don't have time for this, i don't have time for you." I exclaimed.
There was a silence for a moment, he still swayed me with him, like dancing yet more calm and elegant.
"Look im sorry for last night. I didnt mean for it to get that out on control." He apologised.
My face softened, but i knew not to accept his apology. He did wrong and should be held accountable. For many things.
"I have half a mind to turn you into the police." I stated.
"I know you wont, you want me to stay here with you." He lowered his voice softly.
"You know nothing of what i want."
He leaned in closer and whispered in my ear, "Dont act like it wasnt you begging me to fuck you."
My body tensed up and too many emotions that were bottled up felt like they were going to spill out. I wanted to slap him, kick him and kiss him all at the same time. His hands were inching down my body, from the curve in my waist moving down to my-
"What are you two doing?" Henry was standing in the hallway into the dance floor.
Williams hands abruptly jolted off of my body and he and i both faced henry.
"We were just having a bit of fun,...dancing." William calmly explained.
Henry eyes squinted and looked suspicious towards William's answer.
"Well...y/n i think its time for you to go home, william meet me in my office in 5."
William has never seemed afraid of henry ever, it almost seemed he thought he was superior compared to henry, but in this moment a sliver of nervousness was clear.

I did just what Henry said, i decided that today should be done and i drove myself home. Yet i still couldn't get Williams face out of my mind and i wasn't sure if i wanted to either.
