Work Text:

Freddy's legs felt heavy, he's tired and he's not sure what time it is, probably around 6 pm or something, he only knows that he wants to go home, eat and then lie down and sleep for at least 10 hours.
His stomach growled at the thought and Fred materialized himself by his side, Freddy sighs

"I haven't had time to eat anything today! Maybe I should buy something, or else I'm risking another headache..." He mumbles, the shadow nods

He looks around and sees a small food truck, he decides to go take a look

"Hey there young man, you seem hungry why don't you get something to eat eh?" Freddy tries to think about it before jumping to buying anything on the spot

"Come on Freddy we've been having class after class for hours! We could only eat a small sandwich... We need to eat now! And look! Empanadas!! 5 for 1000, that's a good price right? We got the money Freddy, come on..."

Freddy seems nervous and decides to check his purse, counting how much he has left, he sighs and asks for the damn empanadas. He pays in coins, because of course he does.

"This could have been the money for the bus tomorrow, Fred" he says walking away, empanadas in hand after waiting in silence for his food

"shut up and eat already, I can feel the hole in your stomach" his shadow rushed its words in desperation

Freddy can feel Fred's enthusiasm and he even feels excited for the bite himself, but once his teeth close on it and he gets to actually taste it, it's— it's definitely not what he expected...
He is immediately disappointed and it probably shows on his face

"well that was severely underwhelming..." Said Fred who was floating by his right side

"I really hate you" said Freddy, who was still munching on his food "there's practically no cheese at all here!" Fred snorted

"Who gives a fuck if there's not enough cheese? At least I won't feel your hunger anymore, it was driving me nuts!" The shadow's head turned in circles like crazy and returned to its place as it was before, his eyes still moving wildly after he flopped on the air and let itself float and get pulled by Freddy as he walked

"Next time this happens I'm not buying anything and I'll let you feel hungry until we get home" said Freddy after gulping down what was left of his second empanada, saving the rest for later in his backpack as he heard a bus approaching "now shut up, I don't want people looking at me weird"

Fred made himself smaller with a pop and went to rest on Freddy's pocket, content now that he doesn't feel Freddy's hunger so much.
Sadly for Freddy he'd have to go standing, since every seat was taken.
