Behind Closed Doors

The New Guy (Night 2)

*I'm so sorry that I'm bad at updating. I PLAN to update every Tuesday but I'm bad at schedule so sorry.*

Mike parked his car outside of Freddy Fazbear's Pizza. He had spent the whole day deciding if he wanted to go back to work. After all, he could get killed! But there were so many unanswered questions, and he did have a minor crush on Stephanie. (It took a while for him to agree to himself on the last point.)

He went inside and was surprised to see his boss standing in the office. There was a person standing next to him wearing the same security guard outfit as Mike. The person looked nervous and shy.

"Forget about Stephanie, he's cute too!" Mike thought to himself. "At least it's more plausible to date a human rather than a ghost."

"Hey, Mike! Howd'ya doin buddy!" his boss greeted him.

"Good." Mike said, eying the other security guard.

"This 'ere is Jeremy! He's gunna work with ye in your office for now on. 'ot it?"

"Yes, sir." Mike said. "Hi, Jeremy." He said, waving to Jeremy.

Jeremy just waved back.

"He's a bit o a shy one, this one." Mike's boss said, nudging Jeremy. "But you can crack 'im." He slapped Jeremy on the back with a big laugh.

"Well, I'll see ye later." He said, walking out.

Mike showed Jeremy along to the security office. In place of the office chair was a little bench. They sat down, but there was no space between them and Mike was nearly sitting on top of Jeremy.

"Stupid company with its stupid budgets." Mike muttered under his breath, but he secretly liked being close to Jeremy. At least he would have the comfort of another human being next to him.

Mike picked up the camera monitor and showed it to Jeremy. "This is what we use to look at the animatronics. And these-" he said, pointing to the buttons next to the doors "are the buttons for the lights and to close the door. We have limited power and the phone will be ringing soon. Got it?" He asked, looking at Jeremy.

Jeremy nodded pushing the buttons, closing the door and turning on the hall lights.

Mike was going tell Jeremy that the animatronics were haunted and they might kill them, but then the phone rang. Mike picked the phone up and the message started to play.

"Uhh, hello? Hello? Uh, well, if you're hearing this and you made it to day two, congrats! I-I won't talk as long this time since Freddy and his friends tend to become more active as the week progresses. Uhh, it might be a good idea to peek at those cameras while I talk just to make sure everyone's in their proper place. You know..."

Mike immediately flipped open the security camera monitor and checked to see if all the animatronics were in their proper place. They were all there. Jeremy's face paled.

"Uh... interestingly enough, Freddy himself doesn't come off stage very often. I heard he becomes a lot more active in the dark though. So, hey! I guess that's one more reason not to run out of power, right? I-I also want to emphasize the importance of using your door lights. There are blind spots in your camera views, and those blind spots happen to be outside of your doors. So if-if you can't find something, or someone, be sure to check the door lights. Uh, you might only have a few seconds to react..."

Jeremy's face was so pale that Mike thought he would faint, but Jeremy kept it together.

"Uh, not that you would be in any danger, of course. I'm not implying that."

Jeremy's face relaxed. Mike decided that he would tease him. "Oh, he is." Mike whispered to Jeremy. Jeremy's face became paler than it was before. Mike wanted to slap himself in the head.

"Also, check on the curtain in Pirate Cove from time to time. The character in there seems unique that he becomes more active if the cameras remain off for long periods of time. I guess he doesn't like being watched. I don't know. Anyway, I'm sure you have everything under control! Uh, talk to you soon."

Mike turned to Jeremy, still red from teasing Jeremy. He needed to explain everything as fast as he could. "This place is haunted. Five children were murdered here and their ghosts possess the animatronic suits. Once they get here, they think we are naked endoskeletons and try to stuff us in a suit. That's why we have doors. Everything else you need to know, he just told us."

Jeremy sat stunned looking at the phone, his mouth open. He had come here to work so he could get enough money to buy a separate place to live, away from his parents. He didn't expect that there was danger at his new job. They didn't tell him about this stuff on the job description.

Jeremy was going to say something, but he was cut off when a voice behind them called Mike.

"Hey, Mike" Stephanie said, emerging out of the wall.

Both Mike and Jeremy turned around. Mike greeted her back, but Jeremy shrieked and fell to the floor, unconscious.

*If you don't ship Mike and Jeremy, I don't really care. There isn't going to be much anyway, probably no kissing either so don't worry. Unless you like that, then, sorry. Find another fanfiction.*
