Don't Repeat My Mistakes
William's Pov:
I stood up, I was drunk... I want to....I don't know what I want to do. I look at myself in a mirror in Henry's office. I look disheveled, completely devoid of hope that I had.
But... I yelled at Freddy... I don't know completely why I did...I just....did. He killed his brother....I said I could bring him back....but seeing Golden in his bear form....it...it hurt.
Someone....I brought to life just...dead...right infront of me. It.....
I slammed my hand on the desk.
"WHY THE HELL!" I yell in my drunken state, which caused Henry to flinch as he himself woke up.
"H-huh? What? What happened?" He said, standing up sleepily.
I sigh.
"Nothing, nothing at all, Henry..." I say, cooling myself down.
"Is it about Golden?" He asks, standing up and approaching me. "N-no...." I say, stumbling on the word.
"Are you really okay?" He asks.
My mouth starts to tremble.
"Stop it, stop it. Stop it!" I think to myself. But my drunken state had made it harder.....
Alast, I hug him, crying in his shoulder. He didn't even stop me. He just accepted me into his arms, and he patted my back slowly. "William....let it go..."
"I don't w-want to!" I screamed, muffled by his shirt. It hurt losing Golden....I didn't want to abandon him....
"And why? I know he was like family to you, but even family has to be let go... especially one you've abandoned." Henry said.
As much as I didn't want to admit....I had abandoned Freddh and Golden. All of this was really my fault....but why am I getting mad at Freddy for it...
....
"I'm lost, Henry...I...I really am..." I said, slowly wiping the tears that have run dry. "Maybe that's true, but we can fix tha-" Henry said before I interrupted him.
"No, I really am! I've lost my daughter, my wife, and I just lost my older kid! What am I supposed to do?!" I yelled.
This was news to Henry.
"W-what?" Henry said, stepping back a bit, looking at me concerned. The tears once again came back. I was hurt, lonely, afraid, and angry.
"I....I lost everyone Henry...it's as if everyone in my life is dying...and...and I'm not in control of it..." i sobbed.
"No one understands me, and I feel like I'm just meant to be a sad pathetic man-" I said, being interrupted.
I was embraced by Henry.
I just stood there shocked...
"It's okay. You still have me and Freddy. I can tell Freddy still loves you as a father despite your absence, but he made a mistake and trusted in telling you, did he not?" Henry said softly.
I thought back....
(Flashback)
I parked in front of the pizzeria
"Dad," Freddy said suddenly. "What is it, Freddy?" I asked. This sudden question he asked me was something I wasn't ready for. He's asking me something that I may not have the answer for...
"It's.....about Fredbear." He said as I sighed. "Haha...When I saw your face, I thought you were going to say something bad happened," I said, sighing, knowing nothing bad happened. Henry already told me about the incident. I'm just glad it's repairable.
"Don't worry, Henry told me Fredbear had a few issues that needed to be fixed. Nothing a little checkup won't do." I said, seeing as Freddy face wasn't so tense anymore.
(Flashback END)
......
Freddy did try telling me...
He knew what he did was wrong....
And yet... I yelled at him earlier....
He had trust in me....
And even if I was missing for years, never speaking a word to them, he believed I would not act harshly....
"Yeah, he....he did tell me..." I said softly.
"Then he still loves you, Will. You're not alone in all of this, so please, don't make the same mistake you've made. Don't abandon Freddy. Not again." Henry said.
I...I ignored him for years, and yet... even then....he didn't hate me. But... I hated him. I hated his stupidity, I hated his recklessness, I hated....how he was just like... me.
It's me....he was me...
I hated my own stupidity, and I hated my own recklessness... and now...I projected my anger onto him...
I look at Henry
"I won't." I said.
"And I'll apologize to him too. I shouldn't have yelled at him like that." I said wiping my tears away.
I really wasn't alone here. Henry was the example of just that. He was there, and he helped me. Before I could speak another word, someone barged into the office.
"Dad, we need to talk about the murder case about Y/N's murder case.." Freddy said walking into the room. I quickly composed myself. "What, why?" I asked wiping the tears I had and fixing my shirt.
"Y/N isn't dead. He's still alive." Freddy said going up to me. I couldn't tell whether he was crazy or not. "What? But he was, are you okay?" I asked.
"It's true, Y/N was able to reach out to us. He said he was in the Fazbear Frights location." Jason said entering the room.
I was baffled. The officers and I had collected enough evidence. It was a close and shut case that Y/N had been murdered or at the least been in some kind of accident.
"Well I can't just reopen a case by a testimony. I'd need actual evidence or new found information to reopen it. As much as I would like to, it's not possible without decisive evidence that there was actually a chance that Y/N is alive." I explained.
Freddy looked at me a little oddly, I couldn't tell what he was thinking but I don't think it was good. "Of course you wouldn't open the case..I didn't expect you to do it....if you want devisive evidence, we'll get you your devisive evidence. Jason let's go." Freddy said. It was clear he was mad, but there really wasn't anything I could do.
"Wait, Freddy." I said tugging onto his hoodie sleeve.
He turned to look at me.
"I...I'm sorry, I really am. You don't have to forgive me but...just know I still love you, ok?" I said slowly looking up at him.
His expression softened, but it still held some of its tense tension. "...sure." he said taking back his sleeve and walking away with Jason. It was clear he didn't want to talk to me.
"Jason?" I asked as he stopped to look at me. "I really cant open the case back up or I'll lose my job...Can you... take care of Freddy, and make sure he's safe?" I asked. Gladly, Jason just nodded at me before following Freddy again.
