— eddie paused. freddie followed his gaze towards the now busted open door, lips parting in almost disbelief-- he flinched just slightly as eddie suddenly slammed his hand against the door. his heart slammed in his chest, feeling almost as loud as the echoing of the slammed door. he stood in silence and waited for ed to tell him what the fuck was going on. by the time ed turned and swiftly approached him, he clenched his jaw and straightened. though his eyes were still widened slightly, staring at ed as if silently asking for answers.
“before the others arrive, i want you to do something for me.” edmund wagged a point finger at him. he felt like the darkness in eddie’s gaze would be forever burned into the crevices of his mind. “you and your brother find the little bastards who ran off with all our supplies and kill them.” freddie blinked. “fuckin’ kill them all.” the words were uttered low, with a malicious and dark tone that was all too familiar to freddie. it was like the young man was a kid again, watching from afar as his idol spoke darkly to his colleagues… he remembered watching that man with such adoring eyes.
fred cracked a smile as edmund stepped back, releasing a short breath almost out of disbelief. all he did was nod shortly, uttering, “whatever you say.” he took a few steps back, hearing the sound of approaching footsteps. before anyone else entered the building, his lips twitched yet again before he added, the remark loud enough that he knew damn well that ed would be able to hear-
“alfred.”
with that he turned and headed to a different spot in the building, and it looked almost as if the two of them hadn’t talked at all. though freddie knew he would keep his word for ed. he’d tell william all about it. he knew in the pleading look in the other man's eyes that eddie hadn’t wanted him to tell anyone else. but there was no way he could stay quiet about the darkness in ed’s eyes. the way he reminded him so much of the man fred once looked up to.
alfred would have been so proud.
