Chapter 5. Teddy Bear.
Zoey sat at the office desk staring at the clock tapping her fingers in annoyance. "Come on Zoe wouldn't you think that it's a better idea to just leave?" Max asked he while sitting on the couch across from Zoey.
Zoey gave Max a slight glare "You know I hate it when someone tells me what to do Max." she said with a huff.
Max couldn't help but let out a small chuckle that was one of the good and bad things about Zoey . She was always to stubborn to listen to a order or a threat that was aim towards her. Zoey gives a small smirk seeing that it was 11:45 pm "Finally." She said as Zoey grabs the first aid kit while standing from the desk chair.
Zoey turns towards her cousin "You coming?" she asked with a wink Max let out a laugh as he stood up from the couch. "He should of pick the easy way." "I know right now he has me to deal with." Zoey said with a wink as she and Max walks towards the party room.
As they enter the party room Zoey walks on to the stage and starts tending to the cut on Freddy's cheek.
" Sorry Teddy Bear but you'r gonna be stuck with me for a while." Zoey whispers into Freddy's ear knowing how much Freddy hated that nick name. As Zoey slowly pulls away from Freddy she notices her mother's necklace sticking out of his back pocket.
Zoey gently bites her soft pink lips "Zoey don't" Max whispers he knew what she was thinking but he didn't want Freddy any more pissed off.
"Mom gave it to me Max not him." she whispers back . Zoey slowly reaches for the necklace but as she was about to pull the necklace out of Freddy's back pocket a Gloved hand grabbed on to Zoey's wrist roughly.
Zoey's soft green-blue eye shot up finding Freddy's electric blue eyes glaring down at her. "What do you think your doing?" he asked as he squeezes Zoey's wrist tightly.
Zoey flinches and whimpers in pain "Zoey!" Max shouted as he was about to run up the stage but something yanked him back. Max looks behind him finding Foxy's hook caught into his shirt "Let me go you bastard." " Mn~ that very rude mate." Foxy said with a growl.
Freddy was about to say something to Zoey when suddenly a yellow figure pulls Zoey out of his grasp into a tight hug.
" Hi I'm Chica wanna be Friends?" "Um S- sure" "Chica!" Freddy shouted now glaring at Chica with his eyes slightly glowing. " Sorry Freddy." she whispers as the blond pony tail hair girl lets go of Zoey and runs to hide behind a man with long purple hair.
"Chica I told you to stay here." the purple hair man with bunny ears whispers "Sorry Bonnie" Chica whispers back sadly.
Freddy once again roughly grabs Zoey's wrist catching her attention " This dosen't belong to you." Freddy said with a hiss. "Yes it dose my mom gave it to me before she." "Yea I bet you'r the reason she died." Freddy said with a dark smirk.
Max lets out a low hiss causing Freddy to glare at him. Freddy then notice Max was watching Zoey with worry in his eyes. Foxy shook his head while also looking at Zoey sadly.
Freddy didn't know why Foxy was looking at a human with such a sympathetic gaze till he heard a soft sob from in front of him. Freddy looks back down at Zoey her eye weren't soften anymore they were now dark clouded with fear and sadness. He slowly let her wrist go and Zoey fell to her knees. A pang pf guilt hits Freddy in his heart he didn't know why either.
" You'r right it is my fault I could of done... keep the necklace." she whispers quietly as she stood up and walks off the stage.
"Zoe" "Max not now." Zoey whispers as she walks past Foxy and Max to exit the room. Max roughly pulls away from Foxy ripping his favorite shirt but he didn't care Zoey was hurt . "You fucking bastard!" "What did you?" " I can't believe she was one of you'r fans" "Oh ~really now and how can she be a fan? We never met till this night." Freddy said with a snicker.
"Aunt Rose told her stories of you." Max said while giving Freddy a glare . Freddy froze now staring at Max.
" And she was eight years old when her parents were slaughter." "Slaughter?" "Yes and Zoey witness it all. She still has nightmares about it." Max whispers now looking down at the ground with his hand now clenched into a fist he wanted to punch Freddy so bad.
" I better go" before Max could say anything else Freddy roughly shoved him out of the way while walking towards the direction Zoey went.
"What the hell?!" "Calm down mate" "Why so you'r boss can hurt her?" Max said with a glare towards Foxy. Foxy let out a sigh "Look Lad I'm sorry for what we've done it's just we had peace for so many years then you two come along and break in." he said while rubbing his temples with his normal hand.
Max looks down to the ground sadly he understood what Foxy meant he held his hand out towards Foxy.
"Sorry about that I'm Max Holmes and that was my cousin Zoey Holmes we're here to investigate some cold case's " he said Foxy nodded and shook his hand "We'll give you a tour then mate." he said with a sly smirk as Max nodded in agreement. "But will Zoe" "Don't worry about her mate the captain has a soft spot for fans." Foxy said with a chuckle as he leads Max towards Bonnie and Chica .
Freddy leans against the office door frame watching Zoey sitting on the desk. Zoey's long dark red hair was now free from her bun flowing over her shoulders. She was wearing a pink spaghetti strap tank with dark teal pajama pant with black framed glasses on Zoey was working on her laptop .
Freddy pushes himself off the frame and walks up to her "What are you doing?" he asked in a mummer now behind closes her eyes and lets out a soft breath " I'm redoing you'r free roam so you can go anywhere anytime you want .That's including the outside just a few more things I need to add and~ there." she said as Zoey pressed enter on her keyboard . Freddy felt the new data being added into his system.
" Why would you" "I did it cause you four have been cooped up to long." she said under her breath still not looking at Freddy.
Freddy couldn't help but smirk Zoey was angry it was kinda cute. As he looks around the room Freddy saw her suite case packed on top of the couch. He lets out a sigh and spins the chair to where it was facing him.
Freddy then knelt down in front of Zoey and gently took her blacked framed glasses off and placed them on to the desk gently while not leaving Zoey's darkened green-blue eyes.
"I S- wow this is gonna be really hard." Freddy said with a growl. Zoey raises a eyebrow and tilts her head in confusion. " I'm sorry" he said as the softness came back to Zoey's green-blue eyes he couldn't help but smirk darkly.
Zoey didn't know what came over her but she suddenly jumped into Freddy's arms almost knocking him back and burst into tears sobbing quietly.
Freddy's eye widen at the suddenly contact but slowly hugged her back gently. "Sh~ Zoey " he whispers now gently petting her hair. Freddy didn't know why but he now felt anger only towards himself .
And why wouldn't he Zoey was just eight years old and he brought that horrible past back to her mind.
"Freddy?" "Hm?" " Can we go around town." "You'r ruining the moment Zoey." Freddy said in slight annoyance as he gently pulls Zoey away. "But it can help all of you ." she said with a slight blush since she was now sitting in Freddy's lap.
" Zoey we just started to got along as friends and what do you do ? You ask if I will allow everyone to step out there. Where everyone blames us ."he said with a slight glare at Zoey.
"Friends huh" Zoey said with a smirk " Zoey not now" "Freddy I won't let them hurt you or the others but as a friend you'r gonna have to trust me." she said with a cute pout and her arms folded across her chest.
"Fine Zoey I'll think about it." he mumbled under his breath with a eye roll . Freddy couldn't help but chuckle at the excitement in Zoey's eyes.
"But till then you need to sleep." he said as he lifts Zoey up gently. Freddy walks toward the couch and pulls the suite case off of it with one hand and gently places Zoey on the couch with the other.
As Freddy was about to walk out of the room Zoey quickly grabs on to his shelve. He looks down at Zoey while raising a eyebrow.
" C-can you stay here for the night?" "What?" " No not like that it just I need a teddy bear and Max dosen't." "Zoey that's not helping." Freddy said with slight annoyance while rubbing his temple.
Zoey rolls her eyes "Fine sorry forget I said anything." she mumbled under her breath while looking to the ground.
Freddy stares down at Zoey he dose remember Max say something about nightmares about her family murders. Freddy walks to the button on the wall and presses it to close the door he then grabbed the chair and pulls it towards the bed.
Zoey looks up in shock " What ? I can be nice when I want to ." he said with a wink as he gently put the necklace around Zoey's neck.
Freddy then went to sit in the chair he crosses his legs and places his fist against his cheek for support. "Now go to sleep Zoey I'll have a answer for you in the morning." he said with a dark smile.
Zoey smiles sweetly back at Freddy and nods "Okay. Good night Freddy." she whispers as she lays down on the couch and slowly's falls asleep. " Good night Zoey." Freddy whispers back as he watches her falls asleep.
