Another fight. Nothing new. Never has been...

I had evacuated to the darkest part of the Breaker Room, where I was draining my tear filled eyes. I had been crying for two hours now? Not sure...I don't remember...

I never remember.

I had hushed a few minutes ago, but the sniffles stuck around for a little longer. Knees tucked and head in my arms, I thought about everything that happened, believing it was all because of me. I caused it. It's because of me...if only I hadn't brought it up...

Something else caught my attention. The Breaker Room door opened and then closed. Someone had joined me, and I knew very well who it was. I wasn't in the mood to talk to him, nor anyone in that case. So instead, I turned my back and faced the wall, trying to hush my quiet and simple mutters.

Funtime Freddy looked around, his ears twitching as he searched the room. She had come here, for sure, for where else would she go? He could hear her somewhere...it was far off and feint, but his keen hearing would never fail him. She was here.

He slowly made his way around, his eyes scanning the walls, the floors, everywhere he could see. When it came to the darkness, he knew he could hear her a bit louder. There she is. He slowly made his way through the dark, his metal feet creating a disturbance.

I could hear him coming toward me, his heavy footsteps making it easy to recognize his presence. I didn't look up, though. I didn't want him to see me having another attack again. I had it handled. I didn't need his help...

"Hey..."

My thoughts were quiet, the low maniacal voice speaking up out of the blue. I didn't glance at him, nor answer.

"You seem to be in a jam," he began, "anyway the peanut gallery can help?"

Despite the urge, I didn't want to laugh. I wasn't going to laugh...not this time. I sighed, pushing my head further behind my arms. Another tear shed. I gave a muffled 'I'm fine' and continued to mind my own business in the dark.

Freddy's eyes softened, knowing very well my ability to lie was terrible. He lowered his ears, knowing how upset I must be, how hard it was for me to handle the attack I was going through. He wanted to help. And he would. He sighed softly and trudged over, where he finally sat down next to me. He didn't say anything after he sat, he just made himself at home where he was. 

I slowly pulled my head up to look at him. He was just staring at the wall across from us. After a few moments of silence, I finally leaned into him with heavy shoulders. I first started sniffing, then started crying fully. 

He gently looked down at me with calm, warm eyes, and gave me a great big hug, one that I felt trapped in, but it fell right. And I hugged him back. "There, there...." he cooed, nuzzling my head. "Its okay..." 

I shook my head, but I stopped when I felt his fingers lifting my chin. I was looking into those bright blue eyes once more. 

"It's okay..." he said again, smiling. He gave my forehead a...kiss? 

I looked at him with reddening cheeks and shocked eyes. "Freddy...?" 

He shook his head, and only held me closer. "Don't worry about talking...Just relax. Freddy's here...I won't leave you in the dark." 

It was quiet after that, but I never cried again that night...
