You and I? ^Michael Afton x Reader^

"Find anything?" She asked, watching Michael shake his head. "Of course."

"Wow, that was rude." He gasped, glancing at her with wide eyes. She put her hands up in defense, rolling her eyes playfully.

"Thanks for...for uh..holding my guitar for me." She thanked awkwardly, pointing to her guitar that rested on his shoulders. He nodded, pointing to a deep red and black colored electric guitar. "You like that one?"

"Yeah, I mean, I can always get another one when I get enough money." He smiled, making Charlie whip her head at him.

"Do you not have the money?" She asked. He shook his head.

"I only have about three hundred dollars that's under my name." He sighed, pulling out his wallet and showing her the dollar bills that were a mix of fives, tens, and ones. She nodded slowly, scratching the back of her head.

"You could get an acoustic guitar...I can pay for the other half.." she thought out loud. Michael smiled slightly, nodding before raising a brow.

"What's the date today?" He asked. Charlie looked up at him, rubbing the back of her neck.

"The ninth...why?" She asked. Michael's skin went a sickening pale, concerning the thirteenth year old. "You ok? You look like you're going to pass out..."

"I forgot about my sister's birthday!" He cried, shoving the wallet back into his pocket before running out of the store, leaving Charlie alone. She stood there dumbfounded for a few seconds before shaking her head, which made her snap out of her thoughts while her eyes went wide.

"Wait, you have my guitar!" She chased after him, trying to keep a steady pace even though he was faster than her. He looked behind him, seeing Charlie and her guitar that pressed against his back. Michael quickly stopped running, stumbling forward as he came to a complete stop.

"Here..sorry." He apologized to the panting girl who leaned forward with her hands resting on her knees. She glared up at him, snatching the guitar strap from his hands.

"It's fine.." she sighed as she fixed the strap to her liking. "You better go to your sister's birthday party." Michael nodded quickly, continuing on the very long journey that he had to take to get to 'Circus Baby's Pizza World'.

Michael pushed the door open, walking into the pizzeria and getting the smell of pizza, cakes, and other treats that were served at the restaurant. Your eyes shot to the door, quickly putting the Circus Baby plush down on the table and making your way over to him. His eyes softened when he saw you making your way over to him, also making his way to you. When the two of you got to the middle, you both hugged each other, almost falling to the floor from the speed the two of you were going. (You both started running after like five seconds)

"What took you so long?" You asked when you pulled away from the hug. His eyes darted to the three boys behind you, sitting at the table with plates of pizza and cans of soda. Both Iszaack and Elijah wiggled their brows while Benji have him the 'tell her, she'll understand' look.

"Oh, I was talking with Emily's kid." He shrugged off, walking over to the boys and leaving you behind.
Michael smiled at his friends, grabbing a slice of pizza from the black, plastic tray. He placed the slice on one of the plates that was themed as Circus Baby. He cringed when he saw the freaky face of the animatronic that his sister adored so much. He even wondered why his dad made this restaurant when he already had two of them; Fredbears and Freddys. They both made good money, and WIlliam was a 'businessman' who made about six hundred a month.
