///Jeremy's P.O.V///
I can't see... I-I feel so numb, motionless... I can't feel anything... W-What's going on? W-Where am I?
All I could hear was some... beeping sound, something like that, then... I heard a muffled voice... W-what was happening? Am I just in some... Dream? I'm kind of... Scared, w-what's going on, I don't understand what the heck happened...
I then heard that voice more clear...
"Kid I swear to god if you don't get up... I... I'll kill you! Get up damn it! Your all I got left in the fucking world! Get! Up!"
I-I can't...!
"Jeremy please get up!"
I'm trying!
"I love you..."
W-wait... What?
I opened my eyes with a light above me, gosh it was bright...
The same sound rung in my ears, beeping, I narrowed my eyes toward the right seeing some medical supplies, all that stuff, but when I turned over toward the left... I saw a window showing the outside... And then him.
He was looking down toward the floor with his hands on his head mumbling something. I then tried sitting up but then a pain rushed through my body letting out a grunt which got Mikes attention. Next thing I knew our eyes were locked.
"Heh h-hi-" before I could respond he hugged me, tight.
"God damn it kid... Stop getting yourself in this shit..." He mumbled as I wrapped my arms around him but then noticed... My left arm... I-It looks really bad... What happened? I'll ask Mike later I guess...
He stopped hugging me coughing into his fist looking away, guess he was embarrassed since he's usually not a hugger. He just then stood next to the bed looking down with his hands in his pockets.
If I could tell him... I would say how everything about him is just amazing, and not just his figure or his eyes but just... Everything! I-I couldn't though... He's getting marrie- wait... He's getting married! Oh my god I totally forgot!
"S-So d-did you propose to D-Doll yet?" I asked looking up at him.
He shook his head still looking the other way. Okay good... Wait- UGH THATS MEAN JEREMY, COME ON!
"W-When were you planning on a-ask-"
"When I feel like it..."
"L-Like next week o-or somethi-"
"When I feel like it"
I stopped talking and looked away toward my left arm ten placed my right hand over it feeling my skin... My arm is just completely, destroyed. And worst part is, I'm left handed.
I narrowed my eyes toward Mike, he had pulled out his phone looking at something, guess it's none of my business to ask I guess...
He then began walking toward the door. My expression began to change into a frown.
"W-where are you going?" I asked.
"I'll be back inna bit" he spoke not facing toward me with his hand on the door handle.
I looked down toward my arm and just let out a sigh to myself.
"O-Okay Mike... Whatever you say..." I responded.
He then opened the door exiting the room. I growled under my breath tightening my fingers onto the blanket. He doesn't care! And what I probably heard... Was just all in my head... I wanted to cry but I couldn't, I felt drained from tears, I just want my life to end already, I have no point or purpose... They were all right, dad... Bullies... Everyone who's put me down... Well I hope they're all happy with themselves cause, they win...
I looked up from the sound of the door opening, it was the doctor.
"Alright Mr. Schmidt-"
"W-wait... T-that's not my last name" I corrected the doctor as he looked up at me from his clipboard.
"Oh, well it says here your last name is Schmidt" he said
I raised my eyebrow then spoke.
"M-My last name Is F-Fritzgarald"
"Okay sorry for the confusion Mr. Fritzgarald, anywho, you just need to stay a few weeks here for your arm to recover from that gruesome incident" he explained.
"What exactly h-happened?" I asked as I pressed my hand against my left arm.
"Apparently from one of the witnesses of the scene, he found you attached to one of the animatronics endoskeleton, the metal went right through your bone, the paramedics almost lost you from the blood loss. Police believe that you accidentally activated for the arm" the doctor spoke again.
I widened my eyes, I didn't go to the back room! It was the animatronics-
Oh my god... It's all coming back to me now... I was working the night shift, I ran from the Mangled fox, and the rest of Freddy's gang but they got me and tried stuffing me into a suit!
"O-Oh... Yea I remember now" I spoke gulping. He nodded then flipped the paper on the clipboard over writing something down then looked back at me.
"Your arm is lucky to still be attached to your body, the surgery was difficult but luckily a success" he said with a slight smile of approval appear on his face.
S-Surgery.... I was always kind of scared of that word since my family has a history with surgeries and that kind of stuff.
I just nodded in response.
"Alright but overall you should be out in a week and you'll be good to go! Just please find a different job, this is the second time you've visit the hospital" he told me in a serious tone. Er, I remember the first time I came here... It's best not to talk, or even think about it.
I nodded again.
"Alright, well, get plenty of rest Mr. Fritzgarald, I'll be back to check on you later" the doctor spoke before leaving the room.
I sighed looking down at my hands again then laid back down facing the window slowly starting to fall asleep.

Three weeks later

Jeremy was awoken from a knock at the door then quickly sat up.
"C-Come in!" He exclaimed.
Mike entered the room with his hands in his pockets wearing his casual clothes.
"Ay kid, ready to go?" He asked the teen.
"Y-yea! Yea I'm ready" Jeremy replied getting up and walking toward his coworker.
"Alright let's go" Mike responded as he walked out of the room with the teen following behind him. The two were silent as they exited from the hospital toward Mikes car.
They entered the car and began driving to Mikes house still not saying a word. Jeremy hated the silence between him and his coworker then decided to finally speak.
"S-so... How was your w-weekend?" Jeremy asked.
Mike shrugged,"Quiet... Unnatural" he responded.
"H-How?" Jeremy asked tilting his head.
"Cause you weren't there..." Mike mumbled. Jeremy's eyes kind of widened then looked away trying to hide his blush. He shook his head then looked out the window as they passed the other cars and buildings until they finally arrived.
The two got out of the car and entered the apartment.
Jeremy walked over to the guest room where all his stuff was then noticed something on mikes messy bed as he passed his room. Mike was on the couch starting to fall asleep, so Jeremy decided to sneak inside and see what it was. He entered his dark room and saw a little letter on the bed then picked it up starting to read it.
'Dear doll... Your the love of my life, I wouldn't trade you for the world-'
Jeremy growled then placed the note down, of coarse it was about Doll. He rolled his eyes walking toward the guest room to get a new shirt on and maybe go out for a while.
Jeremy hated the fact that Mike was with Doll and was planning on marrying her, if only he would of told Mike sooner then maybe, he would of had a chance but it was all to late for that now.
Jeremy sighed taking off his shirt showing his skinny, limb body then reached over toward his other shirt. He put on his Sailor moon shirt with some jeans then walked back in the living room toward the kitchen, he wasn't surprised to see Mike dead asleep. Jeremy chuckled to himself then looked at the clock seeing it was around 4:30 PM, maybe a good idea to make some dinner.
Jeremy walked into the kitchen starting to make some salad since that was the only thing Mike had in his fridge.
He added a little bit of ranch, the kind Mike likes and some tomatoes.
Once he finished he placed it gently on the table.
He looked over toward Mike who was stretching his arms waking up." H-Heh Mike, how'd did you sleep?" Jeremy asked softly sitting down at the table.
Mike gets up then walks over toward the teen looking at the salad then at Jeremy.
"What's all this?" He asked.
"O-oh I just thought maybe you w-were hungry" Jeremy spoke." Heh you think this puny ass salad will fill me up?" He asked pulling his chair put sitting down taking the fork poking at his salad.
"W-well I thought you should have s-something else b-besides Pasta and l-leftover Pizza" Jeremy explained blinking and leaning on his hand staring at his coworker across from him.
Mike rolled his eyes then began eating his salad.
"Mm, this is good" Mike spoke with an expression of approval and his mouth full.
"T-Thanks, you shouldn't eat with your mouth full though" Jeremy thanked softly.
"Eh, it's my house, I can do what I want" Mike retorted.
Jeremy chuckled still gazing toward his coworker with a slight color of red on his cheek.
