I continued to cry on Molten, despite trying to stop myself. The thoughts of how I was seconds away from death kept running through my head, I had some pretty bad child hood trauma, causing me to be a pretty sensitive person, and that combined with Thanatophobia, the fear of death, really doesn't mix well.

I felt Molten pick me up, the same way when he carried me out of my office, and move to the furthest wall from the cell door, where we usually just hang out, and sat down, sitting me in his lap as he did such. Molten didn't say anything else, just simply held me tightly as I cried, comforting me and waiting for me to calm down on my own time, waiting patiently.

Once I finally managed to calm myself after about 10 minutes, I looked around the room to see where SpringTrap was, paranoid about letting my guard down again. I saw SpringTrap sitting in a corner next to the cell door, staring off into space with a hateful, frustrated expression across his face.

I looked back at Molten and met his eye-line, "You alright love?" Molten asked with a worried tone, whispering the question to make sure no one else heard the nickname Molten enjoyed calling me so much. "Y-yea, I-I'm fine, just a little shook up," I responded quietly, with a shaky voice.

Molten lifted my chin with one of his hands and gave me a gentle, yet passionate kiss, which I quickly melted into, as usual when he's worried about me. Me and Molten heard a shriek of excitement, which caused us to pull away once we realized the mistake we just made.

Me and Molten both turned our heads in unison, before we saw HappyFrog and CircusBaby standing a few steps away from us on the floor, staring at us in shock, but excitement at the same time. Lefty was staring at us in shock and confusion, while Ballora just gave me and Molten a soft, reassuring smile, giving us a nod of approval to let us know she supported our little relationship.

With the way Baby and HappyFrog were just standing there, squealing with bright smiles, fangirling, it was obvious they supported us as well, but Lefty and everyone else in the room that witnessed the scene, just gave blank, shocked stares, except for SpringTrap and Rockstar Freddy, Freddy looked angry, while SpringTrap had an expression of disgust covering his face.

"Shit," Molten mumbled to himself in a hissing tone as I buried my face into his chest fur, attempting to hide my face from the others as I heavily blushed out of embarrassment. "L-listen, there's a perfectly understandable explanation for this," Molten began. "We-, uh, well-, actually, fuck it, I've got nothing dammit," Molten responded to his own remark, giving up on making up an excuse.

"W-wait, are you two a thing? Like are you two actually together? Like dating? Like me and HappyFrog?" Lefty asked, trying to get answers in order to try to comprehend what he just saw. "Uh, Bryan? What do we say?" Molten asked in a worried tone, whispering as he turned his head back to me, looking down, waiting patiently for a response.

"It's not like we can lie ourselves out of this one, so I don't care, say whatever you'd like I suppose," I responded, mumbling, my words a little muffled sense my face was still buried in Molten's chest fur as I spoke. Molten gave a small chuckle at my response, confusing me as to what he found funny, I lifted my face to look him in the eyes when I spoke to him.

"Why did you laugh?" I asked, confused. "You sound adorable when your words are muffled like that love," Molten responded in a normal tone, so the others could hear his response as well, making me realize that he didn't care about what anyone else thought of about our relationship, he only agreed to hide it for me, to make me feel comfortable.
