Freddy was pissed. He felt dizzy, flushed, and hot all over. He felt his fists trembling, so much so he had to slap his arm to keep it steady. Why was he so upset? Well.. the tan skinned boy wasn't really angry.. more so.. he was jealous. Insanely jealous— and he had no idea why? Why did he care so much that Fred had wanted to chase after Joy?

Why should he care! He should just let Fred chase after his stupid puppy dog crush! What's wrong with letting the guy dream?!

Thwack.

Freddy had to slap his arm in order to keep it from twitching out. He wanted his body back, just so he could actually punch something. Hard. Did he like Joy and just not realize it? Or maybe he just didn't want Fred to have her? No! That couldn't be it! That'd be toxic.. and manipulative of him. He wasn't like that! Besides, Freddy knew that he felt nothing for Joy.

She was pretty, he could admit it, but he'd rather take her cousin or— Fred himself over Joy any day..

Wait..

He didn't like Fred like that! He just didn't like Joy either! Less than he liked Fred! Plus! Freddy was about ninety nine percent sure that Joy was a lesbian— or liked girls to some degree— because the way she looked at Meg was anything but heterosexual. Ugh.

Thwack.
Thwack.
Thwack.

Freddy hit his arm again and again, foully attempting to calm his nerves. Only stoping when he'd finally made his skin tender, the blotchy red stood out against his sore skin. Freddy hadn't realized that he'd completely tuned out what was going on around him until he heard Fred cry out. Had his jealousy really managed to blind him?

The sapphire eyed boy allowed himself to examine the scene before him, shocked at the sight of Fred on the ground.

"What a pathetic little pervert you are! Have you really just been following me around the entire time?— trailing behind me like a lost puppy?" Freddy watched as his shadow attempted to stutter out a response.

"N-No! N-no.. I don't ha-have any.. b-ba..b-ahd.." Joy had interrupted him once more.

"Oh!! My!! God?! Are you blushing? Wow! That's disgusting! Do you like it when people insult you? You're even more of a incel then I thou—"

"I d-don't like it!!" Fred was blushing furiously by that point, why was Joy being so dirty???

"I-I'm sorry!! I j-just tho.. s-sorry.. I thoug—"

"God your accent is so annoying.." 'Joy' made a mocking pose "Ah!! I-I ahm s-s-sohrry!! I jhust thou— seriously!! Shut up!" Fred shrunk down into himself, he looked like he was going to cry.

"I-I just wanted to h..help you.. you seemed upset a-and—"

"So your first thought was to follow me?? Really?"

Fred fell silent.

"That's so predatorial! You should be ashamed," Joy bent over so that she could see Fred from a better angle.

"Who even are you? What makes YOU think you have any right to know how I'm feeling? Who made you even think it was okay to talk to me?.." Fred's face was flushed in a multitude of emotions. Shame was most of it though.

"I-I'm sorry.."

"You should be! Now why don't you just—" it'd taken a while for "Joy" to realize Fred's eye color. Pitch black with gray irises. Just like hers.

"Oh.. you're just like me.. in a way.." "Joy" sounded almost disgusted.

"But you're much weaker. Insults like this shouldn't make you cry, dear~" Freddy had only just noticed that Fred had started to sob.

"I'll send you to where I sent my host. You'll come out perfect. I'll help make you stronger..." Freddy felt himself panic as Joy reached her well kept hands out towards Fred's face.

"D-Dont touch me!" Fred snapped himself out of his daze, jumping away from the blondes touch.

Freddy felt oddly relieved at that. He knew how Fred processed things. He trusted Joy, that's probably why he liked her. She made him feel safe. But now that security was gone. That meant he didn't like her anymore.. right? He wouldn't feel this way any longer over Fred.. right?..

Joy grabbed Fred by his jet black locks, grimacing at his loud yelp of pain.

"L-Let me.. LET ME GO!" Fred had attempted to put up a fight, following Joy was a mistake.

The blonde had started to mumble out something, the words sounded foreign against her tongue. Like she was speaking a different language.

The shadow had struggled but it didn't take long for whatever Joy was doing to overcome him.

Everything went black.

Fred had passed out.

By the time Freddy held control once more, Joy was gone. And so was fred..
