( A|n: Short chapter. But the drama and romance is coming soon though.)

"So what do you want to talk about first? Perhaps, your mom?"

"Uhm why not, sure." I retorted bitting my nails anxiously. Fidgetting in my seat. The woman took a few notes in her note pad before turning back to me.

"So can you tell me a bit about her?"

"Well my mum actually she looked exactly like me. Well except that her hair was a bit more of a blonde shade. She was really kind and gentle." 

"How did she die?" I stopped bitting my nails and push myself further in my seat as I felt my body froze. Wasn't it a too much of an unsensitive question to ask on the first session?

"Car accident. Uhm i-it was after E-Ev-Evan's." My voice trembles a bit. I pull an anxious hand through my hair. My hand also trembling a lot.

"I don't think I can do this any longer. I'll try next week maybe." I mumble getting up and rushing to take my jacket.

"Are you sure Elizabeth? We could just talk about something else."

"N-no I'll be okay. Have a good day ma'm."

Witouth waiting for an answer I rush out of the room. Bitting my bottom lip anxiously. Not noticing the drops of blood falling from them. But I didn't care I just needed something to distract me from the fact that my eyes had tears threatening to fall any moment. Not in public. Not when the whole world is waiting for me to break in front of them. Because I wont.

I expected a lot of things to happen tonight after the ghosts-robots or watever they are what I didn't expect was Elizabeth to showing up to my door at 11 o'clock in the night. But I guess she'll always surprise me. She looked stressed. Well more then usual. She entered and sat down on the sofa. I did the same. Maybe she would tell me more about everything, I don't know.

"Mike, I haven't been completely honest about myself. First my last name isn't Smith, it's Afton. Elizabeth Afton."

"The girl on the news?" My mouth handed open as I sat next to her with a questionning gaze. 

"Yes, also Freddy's it's not what it seems. You have to quit, it's not safe."

"I can't just quit. Come with me and Abby tonight. You'll see. I need this job Liz." Her demeaner changed hearing Abby's name. She seemed concerned. She stayed silent for a while.

"Fine I will. You'll see that  I'm right. "

She got up and went to Abby's room. She seemed upset that I didn't believe her  but I just couldn't quit the job. I know something's wrong with Freddy's but if I quit I'll have almost no chance to keep Abby and find out who took Garrett. 

After a while Elizabeth came out with Abby who was now all dressed and her hair styled. It didn't surprise me as Abby always asked Liz to pick her outfits since she had more 'style' then me. It isn't false but still. They walked towards me and we could finally drive to Freddy's. Elizabeth on the passenger's seat and Abby in the back.

"I'm going to see my friends again! Then we can draw together. They also said that they knew you Lizzy. Said something about being friends before." I never heard her talk so much before. So I didn't really listen until she mentionned the ghosts in the animatronics. Being friends with Liz? I could see Liz flinching at that. Did she really know them?

"I'm sure they'll be happy to see you again! Especially Freddy and Chica. They talk the most about you. With the girl with brown hair." She rents. But I was skeptical. There was only 5 children in my dreams so where did this girl come from? Perhaps there is another one?

- Brown hair...? Is her name Charlie or Charlotte...?

Elizabeth asked. Abby nodded to Lizzy's surprise. She slightly bit her lips waiting for an explanation from my sister. But when we arrived her attention was immidiatly on the building. Vanessa's car was parked here. She was leaning on her car. Probably waiting for me. Abby opened quickly her door and rushed to take Liz's hand. While Vanessa approached us. She looked surprised to see Abby.

"Oh hi Vanessa." She gave me a knowing nod before her eyes fell to my sister, who was clinging to Elizabeth's hand.

"Mike." She stared intently at Elizabeth wich made her shrink back.

"Isn't this Elizabeth? Elizabeth Afton?"

"How'd you know?"

Abby tugs my hand. She was getting impatient so I decided to just let Elizabeth and Vanessa have watever conversation they had. Not that I really cared. It wasn't my matter and they probably needed to talk alone anyways.

Abby drags me inside the Pizzeria. Immidiatly running to her 'friends' who turn on seeing them. They seemed happy to see her again and she seemed happy too. What was strange though was that these animatronics. Abby told me they were ghosts at home. Something tells me it has something to do with the missing children. But I don't know what.

Especially that they seem to know who took my brother. Let's hope Abby finds out who took him. The kids clearly don't like me so it's not even an option.
