"B-Both of y-you, s-stop it-!" A new voice called out nervously - causing you to turn your head and see a dark-haired, teal-eyed teen. He was wearing a light-blue shirt with a collar and denim trousers, his expression anxious.

"Fuck OFF, bitch boy. This has absolutely NOTHING to do with you." Freddy snarled at him, swiping at Michael a second time and getting engrossed in the fight. "And you, just fucking DIE already!"

"W-We should head inside." The shy boy suggested, softly taking your hand and taking a step towards the house.

"Right..." You agreed and let him guide you away from the two fighting males.

"S-Sorry about them," The teen apologised on their behalf, looking embarrassed while he took you inside. "T-This happens all the t-time..."

"Oh...I see..." You tried to stop being so tense and instead decided to interact with the male next to you, "Are you Norman by any chance?" Your question made him stop and stare at you with surprise - stunned that you knew him.

"Y-You know who I-I am-?" Norman asked in shock, his eyes widening as you two stood in the hallway. "I-Is there something y-you need f-from me-?" He fearfully asked, praying he wasn't in trouble or anything. 

"Well, kind of..." You flashed a light smile and squeezed his hand - trying to calm him down. "Freddy said you could back him up about the others and their...antics." You told him hesitantly, letting Norman lead you into the living room and hoping he could help.

"T-The others...? L-Like Jason, M-Michael and H-Hannibal?" Norman shyly spoke, his stuttering not bothering you in the slightest. In fact, it was sort of sweet.

"Mmhm." You gently nodded; both of you sitting down on the sofa and striking up a conversation. "I'm not going to force you though - you don't have to tell me anything you don't want to. I mean, I wanted to meet you regardless of my questions."

"Y-You did-? R-Really-?" His stammers increased a little due to his bashfulness, a faint blush colouring his cheeks.

"Yep! I mean, it's not really fair if I meet Freddy, Jason, and the rest of your housemates without meeting you as well, now is it?" You warmly replied, the atmosphere between you two being very light-hearted.

This was definitely a change from a few minutes ago. "I...I guess you're right." Norman gave a quiet laugh, "S-Still...I-I'm flattered t-though."

"Oh!" You exclaimed suddenly, "I completely forgot! My name's (Y/n)."

"W-What a pretty name." He shot you a timid smile, "I-It's nice to meet y-you."

"Likewise." You pleasantly responded, growing confused with every second that passed. This was the teenage boy who could slaughter people without a care...?

"S-So what do you want to know-?" Norman wondered, "A-About t-the others I-I mean-!" He quickly added, flustered.

"Hmm, well..." You stopped speaking for a second - uncertain about what to bring up first. "I heard from Freddy that you all...hurt other people, and act the way you do because of different reasons. Am I allowed to know what those reasons are?"
