Chapter 1

"Forever is a long time, but I wouldn't mind spending it by your side."

- He is We, I Wouldn't Mind

The sun shined brightly through the blinds, shedding light upon your peaceful, sleeping self. Unfortunately, that moment was cut short when the sound of a door slamming and thumps came from the hallway.

Your face scrunched up and hid under the comfort of your blankets trying to fall back asleep. Laughter followed the loud footsteps and in a seconds notice the blankets were hurled off of you and someone yelled, "Good morning (Y/N)! Time to wake up!"

You abruptly sat up in surprise and rubbed your eyes so you could see clearly. A groan escaped your mouth as you took note of your surroundings. In front of you was your younger brother with his hands planted on the bed's mattress and the sheets that have previously been on you were on the ground. "Mm- what time is it Jamie?" You asked running a hand through your bed-head hair.

A squeal came from his mouth as he exclaimed, "It's 8:00! Almost time to reopen!" The confusion was written all over your face as you pondered what he meant. After a few seconds, a metaphorical light bulb lit up over your head, "I-is today really reopening day?!"

You gave Jamie a look of surprise and panic. "AND it's already 8:00?!" You added. He nods and you swing your legs out of the bed and jump up rushing to your dresser. "Yup, and you only have an hour and a half to get ready, that's what you get for sleeping in!"

Jamie laughs, he runs out of your room and closes the door. Sighing you open the drawers to pull out a pair of underpants, a bra, and a white polo shirt. You took off your PJ's and threw them in the hamper and put on the clean clothes.

Your family had come down to visit you in Texas after you moved back to the college there. Weirdly after you graduated the land plot and the ownership for the Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria were up for sale, so you bought it.

As you finished buttoning the polo you walked to your closet, the white paint was chipping off to show the bare wood underneath it. A sense of nostalgia came over you as you cracked a smile and opened the creaky doors to grab two hangers.

One of them held a that had silver rose decals imprinted on it. The other hanger just held a plain pair of .

After you put both on you took a look in your mirror and grabbed the hairbrush/comb off of the table and raked it through your hair. Next to the hairbrush/comb was the you also had to wear. Looking at it you felt giddy and excited.

You took a look back at the clock, grabbed the top hat, picked out a pair of white socks and the black, and rushed out of your room.

You, your parents, and your older brother all gathered into the car and started it up. Your younger siblings stayed at the house with grandma so they could watch the live ribbon cutting on live TV.

You sat silently in the back looking out the window as everyone else chatted continuously about how excited they were to be able to see the grand reopening of the famous Freddy Fazbear's pizzeria. Despite never being able to go there as a kid, you've heard plenty of stories about how fun it was.

"Hey (Y/N)? You have the flashcards right? Don't wanna forget your speech right?" Your dad turns his head and looks at you from the passenger seat, you grab a stack of flashcards from your purse. "Yep I got them right here, definitely don't want to forget these!" You smiled as you held them in your hand. He nodded and turned back around. You slid the card stack back into the purse and zipped it up.
