:꒰ Chapter 22 ꒱:

Nightmare's ears flicked upward and he looked over as he felt something small latch onto his leg, causing him to look down and sort of freeze in place as he was met with a little 3 year old boy holding his leg.
"Daddy?" The little boy asked, not knowing who Nightmare was nor having heard from the News what he was being said to have done. He seemed a little lost, probably having run ahead of his actual father and mistaking him for his parent.
"I, uh.." Nightmare seemed almost broken. Like- He had no idea what to do other than sit there and pretty much stare at this innocent little kid.
In the background there was an older gentleman who was glaring, likely in the assumption, 'He's gonna hurt him.'
FredBear smiled a bit watching the little boy, "He thinks your his daddy" He said patting the boys head softly. He gently picked him up putting him in Nightmares lap gently "Where did you come from little boy? Are you lost?" FredBears voice was soft and gentle as he spoke to the 3 year old...He could see how tense his alpha was which made him lean into the boys ear "Just comfort him, He looks lost so he must be afaird and thinks your his papa...Hug him and tell him everything is gonna be alright maybe even tell him one of those princess stories I heard you telling the other boy at home..." He whispered before kissing the males cheek "I believe in you..." He told grabbing a blanket and gently wrapping it around the child to keep him warm while he looked for the real father.
Nightmare's ears lowered with a bit of worry about some form of accidental harm to the kid in his lap, though after a few moments he glanced at a small bookshelf filled with Childrens books. He stood up, holding the boy in his arms until he wrapped his arms around his neck gently, of which he then walked over and knelt down, setting the kid down and waiting for him to release his hold around him. Once he did, he gestured to the books, letting him pick one.
The boy gave a smile, selecting the one titled "Have You Seen My Duckling?".
Fredbear watched them both get along as he went and grabbed a water from the vending machine, He wanted to see how Nightmare would react to such a young kid to see how he would be as a father in the future if he indeed was pregnant...He sat down again but a bit further so Nightmare wouldn't ask for aid from him as he wanted him to do this all alone this time.
Nightmare took the book and walked back to his seat, still seeming a bit off and nervous, though he just told himself, 'This is gonna be my life in the near future, better get used to it.'. When the little boy came waddling over Nightmare couldn't help but smile a bit. He helped him up into his lap and let him sit, setting the book in front of them and turning to the first page. He then began to smoothly and gently read to the boy, calming the man on the other side of the room's nerves though he still remained wary.
Despite how nervous he was, he seemed decent enough with children. He would need more time with them to be fully comfortable, however.
FredBear smiled watching them, He noticed Nightmares phone in his pocket as he grabbed it and took a secret photo of them to surprise Nightmare everytime he thought he wouldn't be a good father as he watched them, His heart skipped a few beats which made him blush realizing he may be falling for the male...Little did he know that wouldn't last for long though...
After a few minutes and a couple short books a rather frantic, worried and pale looking male came into the room and spotted the boy with Nightmare. He froze for a moment, though slowly came over. "E-excuse me, sir? That's my son.. I've been looking for him."
Nightmare looked up, slowly nodding. "Of course... I was attempting to keep him calm. He mistook me for you, so I did my best to keep him in one spot so that his family, now I know is you, was more likely to find him."
FredBear watched as he stood up going over to them with a smile "Were sorry for the inconvenience sir, You have a really cute son I must say..." The omega said with a happy smiled as he bent down giving the small boy a toy he had bought while he waited to remember Nightmare "There you go little one, It was nice meeting you." He told, The toy was a small black bear that was soft and cuddly as he stood up holding onto Nightmares arm gently.
