Chapter 12. A Father's Advice
Freddy, Bonnie, and Chica were practicing some old songs that they use to sing from the earlier years before Freddy's shut down. As they finished a clapped of hands came from across the room.
All three looks towards the direction of where the clapping was coming from. There across the room leaning against the wall with a cigarette in his mouth was Richardson.
"Sounds good like usual." he said with a smirk "Richardson!" Chica shouted in excitement as she jumps off the stage and runs up to him to give him a tight hug. "Hello to you to Chica." Richardson said with a chuckle as Bonnie walks up to him to shake his hand.
"How's Zoe doing?" Bonnie asked with a slight smile Richardson pauses and looks up at Freddy who was trying to act like he was busy with his microphone.
"She fine she really misses you . All of you." Richardson said while smirking at Freddy who was now looking down at him from the stage. "Hey guys may I talk to Fazbear alone?" Richardson asked as he runs his hands thew his dark brown hair which now had strands of grey mixed with the brown.
Both Bonnie and Chica turns towards Freddy as if asking him if it was okay that they leave . Freddy give them a dark grin and slowly nods his head giving them permission to leave.
As Bonnie and Chica both walked out of the room closing the door behind them Richardson walks towards the stage and leans against the bottom wall letting a stream of smoke out thew him nose from his cigarette.
Freddy looks down at him with no feelings showing in his electric blue eyes. " So what do I owe this honor to."he mumble as he watches Richardson drop his cigarette to the ground and and steps on it to put it out.
" Why did you kiss her back?" Richardson asked as he crosses his arms in front of his chest while still leaning against the stage.
He was now looking at Freddy who slightly glares at him and stood there in silence. " I see well do you love her?" Richardson asks again Freddy didn't answer . Freddy just looks away from Richardson and starts working on his microphone for the third time .
Richardson closes his brown eyes " Huh" "Huh what?" Freddy said is annoyed tone but doesn't tear his eyes away from the microphone.
" You remind me of him." "Who?" "Peter Holmes." Richardson said with a smirk as Freddy slowly looks back down at him " You mean little Peter the one who use to bully Rose?" Freddy asked with a eye brown raise while his ears twitch a little from annoyance of remembering how Peter would bully Rose.
"Yes and Zoey's father." Richardson said with a slight chuckle as Freddy's eyes widen in shock. "Her father?" Freddy asked in a whisper.
Richardson nods with a sly smirk " A brilliant detective and a great partner but did you know when it comes to relationships he wasn't really that smart." " Oh really I haven't notice" "Okay smart ass telling a story here." Richardson said with a slight glare causing Freddy to let out a chuckle darkly.
" As I was saying one day Rose decided to tell him how she felt. That woman was always open anyways Peter was confused so he denied her. " "And?" "And well I went to him one day and ask if he hated Rose . Well Peter was shock and offend so I told him that I wanted to ask her out and that was the trigger right there." "So what happened?" "So Peter punched me and told me never to go near her again. Of course I laughed and told Peter it turns out he realized how he felt about her which of course Peter stopped and laughed with me. I told him he better hurry for Rose's love is strong for him but if someone else walks into the picture it can vanish like that." Richardson said with a snap his fingers.
" So what did he do?" "He went after Rose got married and had a amazing daughter and with that I will end my story with this. Do you hate Zoey Freddy?" Richardson asked while looking up at Freddy.
Freddy just stood there looking down at him " No" Freddy answers quietly " Really cause that's not what she thinks." "Oh? And what dose she think?" " That you hate her . Why do you think she still hasn't came back?" " What I would never hate her I!" Freddy stops and realizes what he was about to say Freddy smirks darkly at Richardson.
Richardson chuckles and gives him a wink " Bingo Fazbear" "You'r really good at this you know that detective." Freddy said as he walks down the stage with his hands in his pockets and heads towards the door.
" I get that a lot." Richardson said with a shake of his head while following Freddy from behind. " You'r going to look for Zoey I'm guessing ? " " Brilliant deduction detective." Freddy said as he slowly reaches for the door knobs and stops.
"What wrong Fazbear?" Richardson asked with a eyebrow raise "Shh~" Freddy said as he closes his eyes to use his senes.
The smell of cherry blossoms filled his nose Freddy's ears twitch's slightly hearing the sound of familiar voices in the living room. "Sorry for asking you to come lassie." Foxy voice said " It's fine if Max is in danger of course you'll call me." A soft sweet voice answered back.
Freddy's electric blue eyes widen that voice that sweet soft voice and that smell he knew it who it was from.
Freddy quickly pulls opens the door and rushes towards the living room finding a girl with dark red hair in two buns and blue-green eyes sitting on a chair looking towards him. "Hello Zoey." Freddy said with a dark smirk locking his electric blue eyes with her soft blue-green ones.
"Freddy." Zoey whispers as she stares at him as tears slowly starting to slowly form in her eyes.
