I don't think I need to explain myself 💀

His words were calm, bloodless. It was said casually, like one would mention the weather. But his eyes... they were always such a pretty gold color, but now they looked as if gold was melted with obsidian. They were so cold.

The girl couldn't help but notice his bandage was missing too, beneath was a deep, dark cut that already seemed to be a scab. And his face seemed hollow and white, like a vengeful ghost. The girl felt her heart beat quicken beneath his hold, why did he seem so different? Was he always like this?

"Hey," she said with a nervous laugh. She tried to pull her wrist out of his cold fingers. He didn't let go, his hold is just so tight. "It's nothing, it doesn't hurt, really!"

The boy's gaze sharpened, his fingers squeezed tighter. The tension in his body oozed menacingly off of him, it was palpable. He didn't look convinced at all, but after holding her stubbornly in place and analyzing her every move, he finally let go of her arm. He leveled her with a concealed look, his eyes never seemed to stop staring at the blood on her face. The girl suddenly remembered what she was looking for.

"Gregory, Freddy is in danger! He said to find him in the main Atrium. We need to make sure he's ok!" The girl dashed past Gregory, as if she knew where she was going, but a cool hand gripped her wrist pulling her backwards. "Gregory-"

Her back was shoved against his cold chest. Arms wrapped around her small figure, cocooning her completely like iron bands. The girl let out a soft, quiet gasp as the boy held her tightly, his face against her neck. She tried to squirm out of his grasp but it was futile, since when was he so strong?

"Hey..." He whispered into her ear with a saccharine voice, his cold breath making her shiver. His fingers tapped along her shoulders and sides, almost playfully. "...You seem so exhausted, so tired. You should consider a break."

"But I'm not-"

"Quiet." His voice darkened, making her flinch. He suddenly sighed tiredly against his neck, almost like he was shameful for speaking to her in such a tone, before speaking again in that... that voice. She didn't like it, it was like a scolding parent. "I'm only looking out for you... That's what friends are for, right?"

"Yes- but!-"

"Shhhh," his smooth finger pressed softly against her lip. She blinked in surprise. His soft hair tickled her, sending nervous tingles throughout her chest. "I saw a small, little bench nearby, why don't you sleep for a moment, hm? I'll keep watch..."

He was right, she was really tired. She doesn't even know what time of night it is, but it was definitely way past her bedtime. But she didn't want to sleep, Freddy was hurt. She cared for him, she wanted to make sure he was fine. But she also didn't want to disobey Gregory.

Maybe... sleeping for a few moments is not a bad idea, but as soon as she wakes up, she will search for Freddy.

There really was a small bench for customers in a nearby hallway. It had rubber cushions and was made out of faux wood. It was overall unnoticeable. But Gregory saw it. The girl sat down hesitantly on the not-so comfortable cushion. The furniture was large enough for her to lay down on. Gregory was seated next to her, watching her expectantly.

It was a little unsettling by how intense he had his eyes on her. But as soon as she laid down, she found her eyes closing to the soft, electrical hum of the Pizzaplex. And a few moments later, she was out like a light, sprawled out on the cushion, breathing softly with a peaceful look on her face. Vulnerable.

Gregory was watching her with a dark glint in his eyes. He suddenly bent down over her, until his face was above hers. His eyes were glowing, golden pools of madness. His hair slid down until it tickled her nose. He leaned in, closer and closer to the point where he could count her precious lashes. Then, his cool tongue lapped at her bloody face, leaving a trail of fake, slimy saliva in its wake.

As quickly as it had happened, he leaned back, slapping a hand over his mouth, surprised at his impulsive actions. He looked horrified with himself, but as well, excited. The sweet, metallic tang of her blood filled his mouth and he couldn't help but relish at the taste. It was vile of him! But it was so delightful!

He quickly scanned over her facial features. She didn't even stir in her sleep. Her nose was still bloody, but he wouldn't dare have another taste. He swiped his tongue over his teeth, his eyes dark and glistening. Will she ever know? Will she ever see the ugly thing he is on the inside? No... Not ever.

He very much noticed the new clothes she was wearing. Though he found it cute, he couldn't help but turn bitter when he thought about just exactly who gave it to her. His eye twitched with jealousy. No, no, no, he can't have this.

Freddy was just a pawn in his plan. A stepping stone. He can't be having that animatronic running around with his little bonus prize once he wins. He placed a hand on his chin, deep in thought as his other hand carded through her messy hair.

He can't be with her at the moment. She was not supposed to be here. Just why exactly was she wandering around, alone? Though he was smug about the fact that Freddy was not in the picture, she needs to stay with the bear for the time being.

But he can't be having that animatronic taking what's his. He needs to tighten his hold a little bit more on that bear, before things get out of hand. He knows what Freddy thinks of her, a small baby in need of nurturing. But Gregory had already made his claim of her since the beginning. She was his. Maybe it wasn't a part of the plan to have a delightful, little distraction, but the boy couldn't care less. No matter what happens, his mission will be completed.

His grip on her hair tightened, making her shift in her sleep with a quiet murmur. His eyes trailed to her small, vulnerable body. He can't keep her by his side at all times. But he also can't leave her alone, who knows when the others find out about her. Chica already knows of her, and the others are yet to see the small, little girl. But if they do, well, they have always been on the menu. Gregory smiled wickedly. He just needs to learn more about them and their... bait.

Another little obstacle in his path is that damned security guard. He hasn't seen her lately, but he has his suspicions that he will soon enough. She's a thorn in his side but she hasn't posed any threat, yet. But as they say, little thorns in roses always get cleaved. And he's never had a problem with just a little trimming.

He hummed excitedly, the first steps to his plan were in motion. It's only a matter of time, now. Sweet, delicious time. He found himself staring at the girl's bruises with a dark look in his eyes. His next target? Well, it's not that hard of a guess. He's accumulated enough power now. Perhaps he should start frying, hm... bigger fish.

He stood up from his position. Sparing the girl a glance, once more. A small, innocent smile was plastered on his face. Deceitful. Moon has played dirty far enough, but now it's Gregory's turn. Time to grab the shears, right? He has a few... thorns to cut.

Thats it, it's been decided. He'll leave her with Freddy, just for now. She'll probably find him soon, anyways. All he needs to do is tighten his control on that dumb bear, not too hard of a task. That animatronic will listen to him. And Freddy will just stay with her till Gregory is done. The boy will just take out any threats for the time being. A perfect plan. Yes...

"Farewell, little (y/n,)" Gregory whispered into her ear before pulling away. His bloodless eyes stared at her for a moment, at the tempting crimson dripping down her chin, before he strided away. "Just remember, I have more control of the situation, now."

Sorry for disappearing in and out. My dad got put into the hospital last weekend and I was moving everywhere A LOT. It's been a crazy month but I think (maybe) things will settle down now that he's recovering. 🙀👹

Gregory is silly. And you guys are starting to see his true little colors. He is still sassy tho guys, don't get me wrong. 😼

Fanart that I have gotten will be posted next chapter, promise! Thanks for all your patience and goofy comments! See ya on the flip side! 🏄‍♀️🏄‍♀️
