-More Truths, More Lies-

Your POV

I sat frozen on the bed with eyes glued at the incoming call coming from my father. 'What do i do? What am i supposed to say?' Toby must've sensed my panic because he made his way to my side and motioned me to answer the phone.

"Don't worry (y/n), y-you know, just pretend you're at home, easy 'nuff right?" with his goggles off and his mask down, it was delightful to see his smile in his eyes. I hesitantly answer and Toby pushes his ear against the other side of the phone, and his soft, brown hair ruffles the side of my cheek.

"H-hey Dad, how's work going?" Toby gives me a thumbs up with a goofy smile and I crack a smirk at his silliness.

"Kiddo! Surprised you weren't napping During this time of the day. Work is going... slower than expected. I may come home later than Monday, possibly Tuesday." He gives an audible sigh through the phone followed with a low hum.

"Oh...Yeah that's fine...I've just been here gaming and napping as usual" All the things my father has kept from me began to flow through my mind and I felt my own face form a frown.

"You okay, kiddo? You don't sound like yoursel-"

"HEY TOBYYYYY, I HEAR YOU IN THEREEE" A loud high pitched voice rang from the hallway, startling the both of us. My hand flew over the mic of the phone and we began to panic.

The bedroom door began to bang furiously and Toby and I exchange a terrified gaze.

"(Y/n)? You there?" My Dads muffled voice jolts me in surprise and I stutter to find words as Toby rushes to the door and stumbles over his own feet. I let myself smile and gave a silent giggle.

"I'm here- Sorry I was turning down the T.V- but yeah I'm fine! Just haven't slept yet like usual- I'm going to take a nap, see you Tuesday Dad!"

"(Y/n) wai-"

I ended the call before he could respond and noticed Toby's head peeking out of the doorway speaking to whoever was there.

"Toby, I'm off the phone now" He looks back at me then pulls his mask back up before he opens the door.

A little girl no more than half my size, waltzes in wearing a pink dress and was holding a slightly torn teddy bear. Her brown curly hair fell over her shoulders. Though... her face dripped with blood mixed with dirt and her dress was wet and muddy.

"YOU'RE (Y/N)!!" Her face lit up and she pounced over to me and clutched onto my hoodie. "I'm Sally! Ben said you would play with me!"

"He did-?"

"Mmhm! He told me they were going out and to come find you!" Her little fingers tugged at my hoodie strings and I look to Toby.

"They went out?" I asked in amazement, I didn't think they would show themselves outside-

"It is Saturday after all, probably went killing" He shrugged nonchalant and my face went into shock.

'Right... these are just casual murderers after all...'

"C'mon (y/n)! Jack is waiting!" She tugged me into the hallway with Toby following after us.

"EJ?" I cock my head to the side.

"No silly! Laughing Jack! Eyeless Jacky is always too busy to play with Sally he says, hmph!" Her audible pouts gave me a stray warm feeling causing me to smile. 'I wonder what it would've been like to have a little sister' though my small thoughts were short lived. I hadn't noticed we made our way into another hallway.
