Five Nights and Reid Collide (TBP and FNAF fanfic)

Crossing Boundaries

* Reid's POV *

It all started when I played that damn game. Although some of the best moments in my life so far came because of it, that game changed my life...

That day I could feel tension building between us three. My siblings had been complaining about my behavior I've had the past few months, but they didn't seem to think of why I was acting like that. Kim and Neil are just more aggravating to me than ever before. Kimberly always being a bossy older sister, and Neil was just Neil; a baby brother who gets everything he wants.

We've been doing the same tour since 2013. Besides the occasional talk show performance or collab with another artist on their tour, we've been doing the same thing for ages. The worst part? We haven't had many breaks from the road. It's so stressful, and I don't think anyone realized that I was feeling that way.

I also felt so invisible to everyone around me. I am very reserved and I stay to my own little bubble, but every time I tried to interact or put in my opinions and ideas, I got ignored or yelled at. Least said, everyone made me feel very unimportant. When you feel that way for an extended amount of time, you start to hurt a lot, become depressed, and you don't really care about anything anymore.

My siblings and I sat down that morning before our California show to talk about mixing things up. I was super excited to throw my ideas out there and get something to change.

"Why don't we play some new songs, maybe some that are mainstream?" Neil suggested. Kim agreed, which surprised me. I agreed too and sat quiet and respectful.

"Maybe we should get some new choreography too." I suggested after a few minutes pass. Kimberly and Neil acted as though I wasn't there and continued to voice their ideas. I suggested a few more, but they didn't even notice.

The day rolled by very slowly after that little meeting. Although we made some changes to the set list and our movement on stage, it wasn't going to go into effect until the next few shows. "I guess that's alright..." I thought to myself. My siblings were making me feel invisible as they made more decisions without me. I just got the vibe that they were trying to ignore me on purpose; to teach me a lesson maybe.

After the show, I was tired, sweaty, and angry. My blood had been boiling all day; I couldn't take anything else.

"Reid, you forgot something!!" I hear Kimberly snips at me from behind. I sigh and stop walking.

"What did I do now?" I ask, trying to hide my irritation.

"You forgot to put your bass up and meet us in the back for the after-show discussion!" Kimberly hisses.

"Well it's done and over with now, what do you want me to do about it??" I ask angrily.
