[Ty's POV]

I heard my alarm ring as I was watching Superbad with Gracie. I looked at my iPhone. 11:39 PM. "Ugh. Bugger. Well, gotta go, sweetheart," I planted a kiss on Gracie's head, "I love you." I finished. "I love you too, wanna come back after work? We can have a drink or two, maybe play some video games, make out, cuddle in bed?" Gracie asked. I felt as if my eye had taken on the shape of a heart. "Y-yeah! I'd love to come back! For now, get some sleep, you look like you haven't slept in a month. I'll be back at 6:30 with a bottle of Jack Daniel's." I said. Gracie stood up and wrapped her arms around me and kissed my cheek. "Awww, I love you too. Now go get a few hours of sleep, okay? You'll need it." I said, giving her a warm, soft hug. "I'll get some sleep. Good luck! I miss ya already." Gracie said with a slight chuckle. I kissed her nose and walked to my car.

I arrived at Freddy's again. The manager tossed me the keys and wished me luck, once again. I nodded with half a grin and walked in. I locked the doors behind me and jogged to the office again. As soon as I got there, Foxy was waiting on me, spinning around in the office chair at top speed. I chuckled. He didn't seem to notice me until he fell out of the chair, startled. "Don't startle me like that, lad." He said, putting his hook back on. Immediately, the phone rang so I answered.

"Hello, hello? Hey! Hey, wow, day 4. I knew you could do it.
Uh, hey, listen, I may not be around to send you a message tomorrow. *banging sound* It's-It's been a bad night here for me. Um, I-I'm kinda glad that I recorded my messages for you *clears throat* uh, when I did.

Uh, hey, do me a favor. *bang bang* Maybe sometime, uh, could you check inside those suits in the back room? *bang bang* I'm gonna to try to hold out until someone checks. Maybe it won't be so bad. *bang bang* Uh, I-I-I-I always wondered what was in all those empty heads back there. *chime plays*.

You know...*moan* oh, no - *noises followed by an animatronic screech and static*" The message played. I put the phone down in shock. I immediately pulled out my iPhone and texted Dezi.

Dezi Halker: I thought you were done dating after that bitch Taylor basically betrayed you?
Me: I thought so too. But meeting Gracie made me realise no other woman's gonna make me as happy as she has already.

I placed my iPhone back into my pocket and checked the doorlights before the camera.

I heard maniacal, deep laughter from the hallway again. "Shhhhhhit." I said. "Close the right door before you check the camera." Foxy said. "I know." I whispered.

I closed the right door and checked the camera with a lit cigarette in between my teeth. "Got a spare?" Foxy asked. I pulled out my pack and counted how many were left after handing one to him. 15 left. I lit the one I gave Foxy when he leaned forward with the cigarette in his mouth. "Thanks." He said, smoke blowing out of his mouth and nostrils. I nodded.

"Y'know, I knew a little kid like you. He always wore a red hoodie and tan fedora. His name was even Ty!" Foxy said. I immediately knew he was talking about me as a kid. "One day, he lost his eye and his mother never let him set foot in here again." He continued. "Sounds a lot like my childhood. I remember going through that much pain like that." I replied.
