Robots Shouldn't Love

The following story is written from Foxy's P.O.V.

""Come on in, boy," said the skeletons sitting by her closet door
Dirty secrets, empty memories, and broken hearts across the floor
I was knocked out, heels over head
So you dragged me by my feet to a ghost town, where you buried me
No wonder no one heard my screams
Love's so alive, but it died in its sleep
And now that it's dead, I live in your head and I will haunt your f***ing dreams"

    I thought she was perfect the moment I laid eyes on her. Strange, I know. What right do I, a broken animatronic, have to love a human? But I did love her. I fell hard, wanting so much to know this wondrous creature that has graced me with her presence. I don't know if I really have a heart or not, but something within my chest began to ache, ache for her love.
    I was hesitant to introduce myself to this new waitress with her luscious locks and her eyes that sparkled like the stars in the night sky. Even the dingy uniform couldn't fade her beauty. But me, I was a rusty, homicidal robot, my endoskeleton showing in multiple places and my fur matted and stained with blood and age. I didn't want her to fear me, but what rational human wouldn't fear a monster like me? But I had to take the chance. I had to speak with her.
    I waited till near closing late one Tuesday night. Most workers had already left for today and only a handful, my sweet included, were left in the building. I crept as quietly as I could from my cove toward where she stood alone by the kitchen. I moved swiftly and swept her off her feet before she could tell what was happening. I had to clamp my paw over her mouth to keep her screams silent. Her eyes were wide with fear, tears forming and leaking down her soft cheeks. I hated to see her so distressed, but I couldn't have anyone knowing what I was doing, especially not Freddy. He'd kill her without a moment of thought. As long as no one knew and I got her out by midnight, everything would be just fine.

"No one will love you like I did, will treat you like I did
So go on, wear that scarlet letter
No one will love you like I did, will touch you like I did
So good luck finding something better"

    I sprinted back to Pirate's Cove, my love held tight in my arms. She squirmed and whimpered fearfully, but I held her close, hoping she'd interpret my tight grip as caring and protective. Once we were behind the curtains, I gently set her down. I motioned for her to stay silent and slowly removed my paw from her mouth.
    She was shaking horribly and her eyes had turned red from crying. She choked out a soft whimper, trying to stay silent like I told her. I tried to smile at her to calm her down, but it only made things worse. She squeaked and stumbled backwards, eyeing my sharp teeth fearfully.

"Run away, boy, if you couldn't tell, baby's got a thirst for blood
A subtle system, wicked melodies, craving bullets from her gun
So entranced they, follow every word, little spirals in their eyes
Catch a lover, turn an enemy just to watch them burn alive"

    I quickly stopped my attempts at smiling. I whined softly and my ears laid flat against my head. I wanted so much to really speak with her, to calm her and express my love, but my prerecorded voice box wouldn't allow me to do so. Instead, I wrapped my arms around her in a gentle hug. She cried out and began sobbing loudly, squirming in attempts to free herself from my grip. I held her tighter and nuzzled her cheek with my muzzle, my voice box releasing some static. She stopped squirming but continued to sob into my chest, large tears further staining my already worn fur. Why can't she understand I'm not going to hurt her? I love her so much. I just want her to love me back.

"No one will love you like I did, will treat you like I did
So go on, wear that scarlet letter
No one will love you like I did, will touch you like I did
So good luck finding something better"

    I slowly released her, stepping back to give her some space. I suppose I should have realized what a foolish decision that was. As soon as she was free, she bolted for the curtains of pirates cove, screaming bloody murder. I growled in frustration. I was growing tired of her fear. I won't hurt her! Why is that so hard to see?!
    I leapt from my stage to chase after her only to find her held tight in Freddy's grip. I didn't realize how late it had gotten. My gears whirred angrily, a snarl erupting from my voice box. I stalked over to tear her from Freddy's grasp, but Bonnie intercepted me and held me back. I tried to get away, but Chica came and helped hold me down. I whined nervously. I didn't want my love to die, especially not at Freddy's hands. He always gets what he wants. The restaurant is named after him for crying out loud! Why can't he let me have this one treasure? He knows I've been lonely in the cove. I miss being around the children. I only want this one human for myself. What's wrong with that?
    I lunge free of Bonnie's and Chica's grips and begin to sprint toward Freddy and my sweet. But she screams fearfully and turns her head away from me, burying her face into Freddy's fur. I stop dead in my tracks. Why would she do that? I'm trying to rescue her! Doesn't she realize I'm trying to protect her, to love her? Surely she doesn't love Freddy over me,... does she?
    Freddy smirks at me and holds my love closer to him. At first, I'm too sad to care. But after a moment, my sadness turns to rage. I snarl and lunge at them, tearing my dear from Freddy's grasp. I throw her over my shoulder, ignoring her screams and pleas, and sprint down the hallway toward the storage room where the spare suits are kept.

"No one will love you like I did, will treat you like I did
So go on, wear that scarlet letter
No one will love you like I did, will touch you like I did
So good luck finding something better

No one will love you like I did, will treat you like I did
So go on, wear that scarlet letter
No one will love you like I did, will you f**k you like I did
So good luck finding something better"

    I burst into the storage room and toss her onto the table. She whimpers in pain and fear, hugging her knees to her chest. I grab a spare Freddy suit and rip the head off it. If she loves Freddy so much more than she loves me, she can have him! I grab her roughly by the throat and lift her above the suit, a low growl rumbling from my voice box and a cold glare in my robotic eyes.
    With a single forceful shove, I crush her body within the suit. I place the head back on the suit and step back, admiring my work. That feeling of love I noticed before has disappeared. If anything, I feel more cold and empty than ever before
    I walk back to the cove, an empty feeling in my metal chest. My eye lights shined brightly in the darkness, illuminating the others still standing where I'd left them. Freddy shoots me a nasty glare, but I ignore him. He can kill the night guard. I don't care.
    I hop back onto my stage and curl up on the floor, a cloud of dust flying into the air. My voice box rattles, expressing a heavy sigh. I close my eyes, curling my tail around my body. Now I remember why robots shouldn't love.
