“I’ll see you around?”
Freddy Carter x Reader
Requested - For @aliiiyyaaah
“okay so i actually got a new idea, maybe the reader is amita’s friend/or cousin and she was around set a lot because they really close and the reader loves to sing but is shy and idk maybe freddy is lowkey crushing on the reader and something super cute happens?”
Prompt - The melody of the music box soothed me”
Warnings - Small angst? Fluff
————————————————
The melody of the music box soothed me.
I would play it over and over when I felt stress or anxiety gripping me.
Sometimes I would sing along with the tune and other times I would hum it.
I remember recreating the beats in my head when I met him.
The human version of sunshine.
We locked eyes for a single moment but my heart started to race.
He broke contact first and when he did I spun around to my best friend.
“Amita, who was that?”
“Who was who?”
I move my head slightly in the direction of the mystery man, doing my best to be subtle.
Amita chuckles and links my arm as we walk to her trailer.
“That was Freddy. He’s a shy one but he’s really sweet. You should talk to him!”
I shake my head.
“No no ‘Mita I can’t do that! Besides I’m only here for a couple of days.”
Amita just winks at me as she places on a film and gets comfortable.
“I will introduce you to the rest of the cast later, most of them are filming today.”
“Ahmmm” I mumble, sliding into the blanket on the back of the sofa and slowly feel my eyes slide close. Travelling always leaves me exhausted.
——————————————
I wasn’t sure when I fell asleep but I was awoken to a loud knocking on the trailer door.
I jump up and take in my surroundings. Amita wasn’t here but I see a note on the coffee table.
The knocking continues so I rise from my seat and open the door.
I come face to face with Freddy.
I silently cursed at me dishevelled appearance as he began to speak.
“Oh erm, I’m sorry. I thought you would be Amita? Is she in there?”
His voice was soft and gentle. Kinda like the sound that could soothe you to sleep.
I take a deep breath and pray that my words don’t fail me.
“No sorry, she left me a note saying she had to nip out. Do you want to come in and wait? I won’t mind”
He flashes me a small smile and comes closer.
“Sure, thank you”
He steps inside and takes a seat beside me.
“I’m Y/N ‘Mita’s best friend. She let me come and see production for a couple of days, I love the books and I study media so it helps with my degree”
It took Freddy awhile to warm up but soon we were chatting away, he would listen so intently and absorb everything around him. It was amazing to see.
Suddenly the door flung open and Amita rushes inside looking every wind swept.
“Oh! I see you guys have met!” She exclaims seeing Freddy and I together.
“I was just sorting out last minute arrangements for your stay, your in the same hotel as us” she explains to me. This prompted me to look at my watch which in turn caused me to gasp.
“It’s getting late and I still need to check in!”
Amita helps me with my luggage and I turn to leave the trailer.
“I’ll see you around?” I ask Freddy.
He responds by giving me a quick nod and a bright smile.
Amita giggles under her breath.
“He likes you”
———————————————
Days on set turned into weeks on set and soon I felt like part of the family. I got to meet the others and had many laughs, especially with Kit and Archie and Ben. The girls became my sisters, I loved spending my nights with Amita, Jessie and Danielle.
I didn’t see Freddy often but when I did I would always greet him with a wave and a smile.
I never really got much out of him, not since the day we actually met.
It was currently night and I was sat in Amita’s hotel room with her and and Jessie.
Amita was laughing with Jessie, telling her how we met and grew up together. I watched with a smile on my face reliving the memories in my head.
I lost myself in my thoughts and was startled when Jessie squeals and grabs me by the the shoulders.
“You didn’t tell me you could sing!”
A blush creeps over me and I lower my head.
“Erm, no no. I don’t, not really”
Jessie still spends the next hour trying to convince me to sing her something but to no avail.
I wish them both goodnight and head down the hallway to the elevator to my room.
ADing! rings out and I step forward into the small metal box.
I small scream jumps from my throat as I see Freddy stood in front of me.
“Oh my god I’m so sorry! I should of watched where I was going” I gasp, trying to regain my breath.
“Oh no, it’s my fault, my apologies” Freddy replies before pressing the number 4 on the control panel.
Number 4, for the floor of my room.
Silence envelopes us but this time it nagged at my mind.
I couldn’t stop the words that fell from my mouth after that.
“Freddy do you not like me?”
I watched as his face fell, it was like seeing a wounded puppy and it tore at my heart.
“Why, why would you think that?” He asked, his voice cracking slightly.
“Have I done something wrong?”
I shook my head rapidly.
“Oh my gosh! No no, not at all”
I take a moment before continuing, or at least I tried to before a loud thump! caused me to lose my balance just as the lights went out.
“Freddy? Freddy what’s happening?” I panic.
“Hey hey it’s okay, it’s just the lift. Everything will be back up and running soon”
I do my best to listen to his words but I couldn’t focus.
I grab for the closest thing to me and I end up taking Freddy’s hand.
He brings me to his chest and strokes my head , whispering sweet nothings in my ear. When my panic finally subsided, I slide down the elevator wall and quietly sing that one melody to myself.
I didn’t realise that Freddy had sat next to me until the song reached its last note.
“You have a wonderful voice” Freddy mumbles and I smile at him.
“Thank you”
“And in answer to your question, I do like you. I like you so much I feel that when I’m around you I’m going to burst. You make me feel things I haven’t felt in a long time. I feel like I’m 15 again, always wondering what to say and stumbling over my words. You’re extraordinary and well … well this …”
Freddy leans into my face and slowly places his hand on my cheek, caressing my face just before our lips finally joined. It was a short kiss but one I that will be encased in my memory forever.
I lean in to go again but I stopped when brightness lit up behind my eyes.
The elevator was run and running. I jump up before it’s noticed that we were on the floor and help Freddy up along the way.
The doors open and I step out of them.
I turn to wink at Freddy with a smirk on my face.
“I suppose I’ll see you around?”

So today I got to go to the online shadow and bone panel and I got to ask my questions! They were for Freddy and Amita, I was so nervous and couldn’t get my words out and was basically a big mess but they were so patient and kind
It was such a surreal experience it all happened so quickly! It’s a shame I couldn’t record it and keep it as a memory but I will never forget that moment! I’m so excited to meet them at the Paris convention in 2022! ❤️
