"Hey there, Foxy. How are you feeling?" a doctor asked Foxy.
Foxy groaned and rubbed his head, sitting up. He was on the ground of the hospital room, Molly looking down at him and a doctor at his side.
"The dad's usually pass out during the birth. Not finding out they're going to be a dad," the doctor laughed.
"I-I thought I was dreaming," Foxy mumbled, feeling dazed.
"No, I really am pregnant," Moly said.
"So I'm going to be a dad?" Foxy asked slowly, standing.
The doctor made him sit in a chair and handed him a bottle of apple juice. Foxy gratefully accepted it and began to drink as the doctor turned to Molly. He began the exam with her some basic questions and soon moved to the ultrasound. It took a minute but soon he located the baby who was barely more than a speck inside of Molly. Foxy stared in awe at the monitor, knowing he had caused it.
"There's your baby," the doctor smiled.
After the ultrasound he gave them information on what to expect, printed out some photos for them, and led them back to the waiting room so they could pay.
"I can't believe I'm going to be a dad," Foxy said as they walked to the truck.
"I can't believe I'm going to be a mom," Molly said with a smile, "I never thought I would have kids. I always said I wouldn't."
Foxy gave her a side hug and kiss on the cheek before getting into the truck and putting on his seatbelt. They drove over to the restaurant and Molly opened the doors, nearly taken down by the animatronic when she did.
"Easy! Precious cargo is aboard!" Foxy said.
"We know, we know, you love her and don't want her hurt," Bonnie said.
"And I don't want our child hurt," Foxy warned.
"Child?" questioned Chica.
"Molly's pregnant," Foxy said with a grin.
"Really?" Chica gasped.
Molly nodded, "I am. He just found out this morning. He passed out when he found out. But after he got over his initial shock, he was happy."
Bonnie laughed and hugged them both, "Congratulations! I'm going to be an uncle!"
"If he gets to be an uncle, I get to be an aunt!" Chica said.
"And I'll be the favorite uncle!" Freddy announced.
"Sorry, that position has already been filled," Jason said.
"Yeah. By me," Bonnie said, pointing at himself.
"No, me," Jason corrected.
"No, me," Freddy said.
Molly laughed and looked over at Foxy who was smiling.
"You can all be the favorite uncle," Molly said.
"And I'll be the favorite aunt," Chica said happily.
"But no one will trump mom and dad. We'll always be the favorites," Foxy said, "I wonder if it'll be a boy or girl."
"I hope girl," said Chica.
"Well no matter what we have, I'll love them," Molly replied, "Boy, girl, gender neutral, trans, anything. I'll love them. I've always been that kind of person though. Accepting of everyone."
Foxy smiled and kissed her, "That's why I love you. You're not judgmental like most people."
Molly kissed him back and gave him a hug, "Now everyone get ready. We open soon."
The animatronics got on their stage as Foxy went back into his animatronic form. Jason had plans to enable the other animatronics to have a human form too in the near future but hadn't had the chance to work on them yet. The other employees filed in and got ready for the day ahead of them as Molly headed for the office to work more on the financial problem.
"Jason!" she called later in the day.
"Yeah?" Jason called back, surrounded by a swarm of kids wanting balloons from him.
"Come here. I have an idea!" Molly said.
Jason pulled away from the kids, handing the balloons to another employee. He worked part time for the pizzeria and the rest of the time he just hung around the restaurant in his uniform, helping out where he could.
"What do we not have?" Molly asked him as he came into the office.
Jason shut the door behind him, "Um… Supplies for a baby?"
"No, no, no. Here. At the restaurant."
"Uh… I don't know."
"Games! We have no games! Just the animatronics and pizza! Look at other places like ours. They have games! Everywhere! If I can get approved for a loan, we can add space to the restaurant and then we can get an arcade added in."
"That's a great idea! We could get Ski-Ball and pool tables and Pac-Man and all sorts of things! And let's add a dessert bar! Complete with a fondue station!"
Molly laughed, "That would actually be kind of cool. I'd get even fatter than I will be in a few months."
Jason grinned and opened up the office door, "I've got to go make sure the crew isn't overrun by kids. They're doing their first show soon and you know how the kids love to swarm around the stage."
Molly nodded and followed him out of the office and into the dining room of the restaurant. She parted ways with him, however, when she got near Pirate Cove and snuck behind the curtains. Foxy was busy fiddling with some props he used during shows, setting up for the next performance.
"Hey, you," Molly said, hugging him from behind.
Foxy turned in her arms to face her and smiled, "Hi."
"How's my favorite captain doing?"
"Good. Although I am ready for a nap. I didn't sleep well."
"Why not?"
"You kept kicking me in your sleep."
Molly smiled shyly and kissed his cheek, "Sorry about that. You know I move a lot in my sleep though.
Foxy kissed her gently and smiled, "I know. But as soon as we're done today, you're getting one of those special pregnancy pillows that will help keep you on your side. Protects the baby. And myself."
They had discussed things they would need while on their way to the pizzeria, even briefly discussing the possible gender of the baby. Foxy was hoping for a girl, while Molly was hoping for a boy. They discussed a crib, stroller, diaper bag, and many other objects which Molly was glad Foxy already knew about thanks to working with children for so long.
"If we have a girl, I think Penny would be a great name," Foxy said as he put his eyepatch on.
"Well, if we have a boy, I say Adam. I've always liked that name for a boy," Molly said, sitting on a treasure chest.
Foxy nodded, picking up a pirate hat and set it on Molly's head.
"Care to be in my show?" he asked.
Molly smiled up at him, "Of course."
Meanwhile, Jason was with Freddy, Bonnie, and Chica, helping them get ready to perform and also discussing their boss's pregnancy.
"I can't wait for there to be a little baby running around the restaurant! It'll be so cute!" Chica said happily, "And when it grows up, I can teach it how to cook!"
"And I can I teach it to play guitar!" Bonnie said.
"I'll teach it to sing," Freddy boasted.
"Before any of that happens, the baby needs to be born and needs to learn to walk and talk," Jason informed them.
He had several younger brother and sisters so he had plenty of experience with raising them.
"Do you think it will be a boy or girl?" asked Chica.
"Boy," answered Jason, Freddy, and Bonnie together.
Chica laughed, "Of course you do. You're boys. I say girl."
Music began to play and the curtains opened, causing Jason to scramble off the stage. The animatronics began their show as Foxy finished setting up for his own show later in the day. Molly left Foxy alone, heading to the office to call some banks to get more information on a loan before the show started.
"Hey, Foxy?" Jason said, joining Foxy.
Foxy glanced up from the treasure chest he was digging through and eyed Jason, "Yes?"
"I think we should plan a surprise baby shower for Molly when it's closer to her due date. Baby showers are pretty common things when a woman is pregnant. It's a party to get the parents things they'll need for the baby," Jason explained.
Foxy nodded, "That would be a really good idea. We could do it here. She'll think she's just coming in for a normal work day but it'll really be a party!"
"Exactly," Jason smiled.
They could hear the other animatronics singing and playing in the background as they talked about things they could do for the party. They agreed quickly that an ocean theme would be perfect for the party, and Jason said he could easily convince the kitchen staff to make a special cake for her.
"I'll talk to her parents and see if they want to split the price of a crib or stroller. Usually family gets one or two of the big items like that. And I'm practically family to her, so I don't mind helping out with something big," Jason said.
"Really?" Foxy asked, "People do that?"
"Really. It's like an unofficial tradition."
"That's really nice. I like it."
Foxy pulled out several fake gold coins and set them on the ground beside the chest and continued digging around.
"What are you looking for?" Jason questioned, watching him closely.
"A surprise," Foxy answered vaguely.
He grinned widely and pulled out a small bag with a ribbon tied onto it and grinned. He peeked into the bag then stood, setting it on the ship on stage.
"Perfect," he announced.
Jason raised an eyebrow but didn't speak, assuming it was just another part of the show. Foxy was always adding on new games and props of various kinds to help spruce the show up for both kids and adults alike. He would often be sure to even slip in a joke only the adults would get so they would be entertained as well. As long as he said nothing sexually explicit or swore, he knew Molly would allow it since it would go right over the kids' heads.
"Can you get Molly? It's almost show time and she said she'd be in it," Foxy said.
Jason nodded and ran off to find her, leaving Foxy alone on stage to get ready.
"Molly?" Jason called, opening the door to the office.
"Hey," Molly said, looking up with a smile, "I talked to a few banks and found the best one to go to for a loan. Low interest rates."
"Cool. But Foxy is ready to perform and he wanted you to perform with him," Jason said.
Molly followed him into the dining room and slid behind the curtains to join the pirate captain.
"Ready for the show, captain?" she asked teasingly.
Foxy forced himself to nod. Molly noticed he was in his human form which he rarely was for performances, and sweating.
"You okay? You're a little sweaty," Molly said.
"Just a bit hot," Foxy answered.
"Want some water? There might be just enough time for me to get you a cup," Molly offered.
Before Foxy could answer, the curtain opened, kids began to cheer.
Foxy swallowed hard, and stepped into the spotlight, shaking.
