You nod shyly, an awkward grin finding its way onto your face rather quickly. You don’t know why he makes you like this, you barely know the man. You don’t know if he even likes guys… Oh fuck. He has kids, he’s probably married. Of course, he is, what were you thinking, why wouldn’t he be off the market???
“How about we let the kids be alone, since I have your attention, can I show you something?” William asks, the words rolling off his tongue like venom strangely enough. But you ignore that feeling and nervously nod, you blush as he holds his hand out but you take it.
He leads you to a room titled part and service, it’s rather small, yet intimidating. The many parts of animatronics just sit around, as well as scraps of fur. Makes sense though, it’s part and service. You draw your attention back to William as he smirks at your interest in the room.
“Unless something comes up, this is where I spend my whole day. I work on upgrades, and new parts, and design new animatronics here. It’s small but I find it cozy.” William says yet again with that same silky-like tone, chuckling to himself.
“It’s really cool in here… Also, new animatronics?” You question, those two words perking your interest.
William grabs a couple blue prints and sketches from a desk before handing some to you. You carefully grab them, blushing as his fingers brush against yours. You grab them and are entranced by the designs, they’re very advanced and impressive.
“You made these?” You ask with a tone like a curious puppy.
He chuckles, “Yes, amazing, aren’t they?” William says, clearly wanting to get his ego stroked and you do just that.
“Yeah! Wow, if I saw these in real life. Woah…” You giggle out, struggling to find words to explain your likeness to his designs.
Your reaction only causes him to smirk and chuckle, his eyes glancing at you up and down. You notice it and blush, was he checking you out? No… Right? He seems to notice you saw and his smirk gets bigger as he slowly retrieves the sketches he handed you. He sets them down on his desk neatly before turning back to you, his smile as big as ever.
“Well? What do you think? About the job opportunity, I mean.” William asks, his eyes staring into your own.
“The job sounds awesome, I don’t know if I’m right for it but I can surely try!” You chirp out, smiling wide.
“That sounds great, so that’s a yes?” William chuckles as he asks.
“Of course! Ah! Working here is going to be so cool!” You practically squeal, blinded by the opportunity to work around kids, a cute guy, and amazing tech.
“So, can you start tomorrow? At 8:30? I’m not a big fan of tardies so please be on time, since you’re new, I might let it pass. My little assistant…” William says, that last bit seeming like flirting again.
“Uh yeah! Sounds great.” You respond, trying to contain your excitement, dismissing his flirting.
“My co-worker should be here early and we have a couple of workers that come in at the same time so just explain you’re here with me. I’ll talk to Henry about it.” William says, his eyes staring into yours again.
With that William grabs your hand again, leading you out of parts and service before smirking at you and then walking away again. Your blush is almost uncontainable at this point, you slightly fan your face as you walk around. You smile to yourself, happy to have finally done something right so far, you got a job just like you planned.
.
You’ve been walking around for a while, not really paying attention to anything particular as you think…
You want to get out of Damien’s/Daryl’s hair so you’re really happy to have gotten this job. He may say that you’re not a bother but really, who wants to house a total stranger? You wouldn’t so why would he? You sigh as your thoughts fill your head further, you yelp as you bump into someone.
“Woah there!” That familiar voice, William? God, you can’t stop bumping into him…
You look up and jerk away when you’re face to face with that same bunny from the stage. You almost fall when you’re quickly caught and pulled close, and you slowly back up. You look around, you swore you heard William…
“What’s wrong? Looking for someone?”
You freeze realizing the voice comes from the bunny, “Oh my god, are you inside?” You ask, tilting your head to try and look inside the mouth of the animatronic…suit thing.
“Shhh, don’t spoil it for the kids…” William whispers childishly, “We don’t want them to find the truth about me…”
You raise an eyebrow, confused for a second.
“You know, that I’m not Bonnie,” William whispers playfully, chuckling softly.
You nod slowly, “Um sorry for bumping into you…Bonnie…” you say with a small laugh.
William chuckles, you can just sense his smirk beneath that mask, sly fuck. You can’t help but laugh as kids begin to gather around him, cheering him on. Must be awesome to see their favorite bunny off stage… Off stage?
Wait, how did he get in? Are there not wires, and dangerous shit in there. Like you don’t know too much about engineering but surely that’s dangerous right?… Right??? Or did they take that animatronic off stage and have a suit for moments like this? You’re sure you didn’t see a suit anymore earlier in Parts and Service.
William walks off as he guides the kids to a table with cake, waving at you as he leaves. You wave back, another laugh escaping your lips. Must be someone’s birthday, lucky kids, having friends and family…
.
You collect yourself for a bit and after trying a slice of their “famous Fredbear Pizza and Bonnie Fries combo with Puppet Ranch”, you decide it’s time to go home. Just as you’re about to leave, a man approaches you.
“You’re Y/N right?” He asks, his voice unwavering and fairly calm. Yet soothing as well.
“Um yeah, that’s me…?” You respond awkwardly, “Who are you?”
“Henry, Henry Emily.” He simply says, “William told me he hired you to be his assistant. Is that right?”
“Uh yeah! He did.” You chirp out.
Henry sighs for a second, “Yup, he’s always making decisions before consulting me.”
“Sorry, should I not have said yes?…” You mumble, worried if he was pissed.
Henry shakes his head, “It’s fine, I wouldn’t want to disrupt you. Plus an extra pair of hands is always good so it’s all good, just a little annoyed with William.” Henry rolls his eyes, “That’s all. Have a good day, I’ll be here in the morning when you come. Knock will you?”
You nervously nod and you part ways as you exit the building, it’s getting late, around 6 PM. You decide to try and find your way back to Damien/Daryl, really not wanting to disturb him. It takes a while but you find your way back to his home and knock on the front door.
You can’t help but remember yesterday when you arrived. Puffy eyes from crying, worry filling you, and trauma layering your mind. It’s comforting to be here and to know that you’re somewhere safe now. You smile as the door opens and obviously it’s Damien/Daryl, he silently lets you in. With a smile on his face too, he takes a moment to speak.
“How was your day? Did you get the job?…” Damien/Daryl asks, a silent plea of the answer no hanging in the air.
“Yeah, I did! I mean, it really wasn’t hard but I had to think for a second. I really think I’m going to like it though!” You chirp, happy to find a place to belong.
Damien/Daryl only nods to that, “I did some cleaning in your room when I finished work, I tried not to move your things but I did fix your bed up.” He says, a gentle smile on his lips.
You perk up, “Oh you didn’t need to!” You try to say.
“Nonsense, I wanted to.” Damien/Daryl says as he walks to your room.
You follow behind and open your room, you find yourself gasping as you see your little chicken friend on your bed.
You giggle, “Oh my god, you really didn’t need to.” you hug your plush, tears brimming your eyes.
“You okay?” Damien/Daryl asks as he notices your tears and sits by you.
“Yeah, I just… My parents gave me this so…” You mumble.
“Oh, is it important or is it bad?” Damien/Daryl asks, worry in his tone, clearly hoping he didn’t do anything wrong.
“I don’t really know right now, it means a lot to me but I’m stuck for obvious reasons.” You quietly say, hugging the plush more.
Damien/Daryl nods before getting up, “I’m going to my room to get something done for work. The shower is open if you need it and again, call me if you need anything.”
You slowly nod, setting your furry friend down as Damien/Daryl leaves. You think to yourself for a bit before getting up and grabbing a pair of clean clothes plus your favorite towel. You slowly exit your room and are surprised to see a black cat rub against your legs, you didn’t even know Damien/Daryl had a cat. You laugh softly and walk over to the cat carefully to the bathroom, heading inside to take a quick shower.
.
Once you’re done, all dry up and changed, you do some night time routines before heading back to your room. As soon as you open your room, the cat comes rushing in and plops itself on your bed. You roll your eyes and turn the lights off before getting comfy into the bed. You’re surprised to get a notification on your phone, you haven’t really used it today or yesterday.
You check it and see a message from your sister reading, “Goodnight.” It’s one word but it means everything to you, and you respond back. With that, you turn your phone off and go to bed. The cat purrs a lullaby to you as you head to slumber land…
