While I was patching up foxy I couldn't help but think of what William had described.
How he went though all of that pain.
"So how's it going darling." William said abruptly
I jumped. I wasn't expecting William to be standing there.
"Ahh Jesus Afton you scared the crap out of me."
He chuckled at this.
"Am I really that scary?" He smiled.
I nodded my head, "Yeah you are."
"Come on (y/n) he's not that scary." Henry said from behind.
"Don't blow my fucking cover (y/n)." William whispered into my ear.
I pushed him away from me.
"I know, I know."
"Less whispering and more working." Henry said.
I continued to put the missing fur onto Foxy's chest.
"So Will have you gone on any dates?" Henry asked.
I bit my lip. That's probably not the best way to start a conversation. Especially with another girl in the room.
"I have but non of them were my type."
Henry smiled.
"Then what's your type."
Henry turned and winked at me.
My face turned red.
Did he think I liked William!?
"Hmm well Henry I think you should know my type. After all your the one who hooked me up with my ex wife."
William then smiled.
"Or if (y/n) darling wanted to know then she fits for my type." William said as he gave me a wink.
My mouth was wide open and my face was red.
"W-what." I stuttered.
I covered my face in embarrassment.
"Look what you've done Henry you've broken (y/n)."
I decided to ignore them and turn my attention back to Foxy.
"You know Will she reminds me of well your ex wife." Henry whispered to William.
"I know but (y/n) is different. She's different in a very odd way."
I knew what he was talking about. We were from different time periods and that was kind of odd.
After an hour of working on that damn fox he was finished.
"Wow that was a lot of hard work." I said as I slouched down in a party table chair.
"Really (y/n) all you did was put missing spots of fur on Foxy while Will and I did the electrical work." Henry said.
He wiped a few spots of oil off his face.
"How is your eye feeling William?"
William smiled.
"Awww you care about me darling." William said sweetly.
I crossed my arms.
"I do not." I stuck my tongue out at him.
I didn't care for him. He deserved it.
Those poor kids didn't deserve to go though that pain.
Nor did their parents.
"Earth to (y/n)." William waved his hand in front of my face.
I blinked furiously.
"Oh sorry I was daydreaming. What did you ask me?"
William chuckled.
"I said that we have to leave early today because Mike has more homework to do."
I hadn't realized the time.
It was around 4:06 pm.
"Okay."
I looked over to Henry.
"It was wonderful meeting you Henry."
Henry smiled.
"It was great to meet you too (y/n)." Henry said giving me a firm handshake.
William then put his hand on my shoulder abruptly.
"(y/n) sweetheart will you be a doll and get Mike for me." William said in his charming British accent.
"Ugh fine, its only because your accent has a charm to it." I joked.
He raised his eyebrow.
"So you like my accent, well I'll be sure to use that to my advantages." He winked at me.
Before the blush could rush to my face I just simply ran off to get Mike.
Once down the hall the voices returned.
"Please stay away from him......"
I ignored the voice and pressed on.
Then one voice in particular caught my attention.
"(y/n) take care of my daddy......."
I stopped. That voice.
It was Elizabeth.
"I'll try to." I responded.
That was the first time I responded any of the voices.
I got to the door and knocked on it.
"Hey Mike its me, can I come in?"
Then I could hear a faint cry coming from the other side of the door.
I reached for the door knob and opened the door.
Mike was in the corner crying.
I ran over to him.
"Hey, hey Mike what's wrong?" I confronted him.
"I-I Elizabeth I heard her, she spoke t-t me." Mike stuttered
I petted his hair.
"It's going to be okay Mike." I hugged him tight.
"If you really don't want to be here we are leaving so I came to get you."
Mike rubbed his eyes.
"Okay (y/n). And sorry I've cried so much today I haven't let my emotions out in a while."
Poor Mike. He has no one to let his pain out to but me.
"Its alright Mike you need to vent sometimes and I'm glad you can get it out." I smiled.
Mike smiled back to me.
He rubbed his eyes once more and got up.
"I can assume we have to leave early cause I have homework?" Mike guessed.
"Well aren't you a smarty pants you guessed it."
Mike laughed.
"I'm not that smart, especially in math."
I put my hands up.
"Well don't ask me for help I don't know all that much."
"But you helped me with my other homework." Mike said.
I rolled my eyes. "That lesson was easy though."
"Now come on we don't want to leave your father waiting."
The car ride home was quiet.
I looked out the window. The scenery was beautiful.
I sighed.
"Damn the world was so nice before it got fucked up." I said leaning on the window.
"What else happened to make 2021 as bad as it is?" William asked.
I turned to William who was focused on driving.
"Well there is air pollution, plastics pollution, and climate change."
"It's really fucked up this Earth."
"Wow that sounds horrible." Mike said from the backseat.
"oh and by the way dad what happened to your eye?"
William was about to speak when I interrupted him.
"Shush William I'll explain what happened."
"Ok so basically when he was about to power off Foxy when I guess the child's sprit attacked your dad through Foxy." I summarized.
"Oh I was not expecting that." Mike laughed.
I laughed too but I then noticed William he was being really quiet.
Too quiet for him. He was planning something.
When we got back to William's house I was walking though the door when William stopped me.
"Hey why did you stop me?" I asked.
William just looked into my eyes.
I became unnerved and broke eye contact with him.
"(y/n)." William said in a serious voice.
"Yes." I said not looking at him.
He the grabbed my chin and forced me to look at him.
"Answer me when I talk to you."
Chills ran down my spine
"Darling tell me......"
"Why did you come back from the pit?"
