"W-What?! Y-you're b-breaking up w-with me?" I cried out, tears staining my eyes.
"Yes, I can't trust you anymore Alana! You cheated on me, of course, I'm going to break up with you!"
I fell to my knees, "Please don't! I love you. Please! I'm sorry! I love you so much. It was forced on me." I continued to sob until I felt a hand rubbing my back, "(Y/n), I'm so sorry, I'd never break up with you. Please, stop crying."
"CUT!" We both turned to the director as they continued, "Apollo, this is acting. You're not actually breaking up with (Y/n)."
"I know, but I can't do this. Just seeing (Y/n) upset just makes me feel bad. Even if it is just acting," Apollo replied, rubbing the spikes on his head.
"Apollo, I know you'd never break up with me. Come on, now let's try this again."
------------------
However, once again, Apollo was unable to keep the acting up. Instead of walking away after I fell to my knees, like he was supposed to do, once again, he came to comfort me. That's when I thought of a plan. It was going to be risky, but it was needed for the film. We needed to get this scene shot and I knew one way to get Apollo to do it properly.
"Klavier, can I talk to you about something please?"
"Ja, of course, Fräulein. What do you need?"
"So you know how Apollo's having a hard time with the break up scene? Well, I need your help with my plan."
-------------
"-So, you in?"
"J-Ja, but are you sure that Herr Forehead won't blame me for this?"
I nodded, "Once the scene is shot, I'll talk to Apollo and tell him it was just part of the plan."
"Okay, Fräulein."
I smiled, "Thanks, Klavier." With Klavier on board, I set off to inform the rest of the team on set (ie, the director, producer, other actors as well as the rest of the crew) to tell them my plan as I'd need to make sure none of them told Apollo.
----------------
"Okay, he's here. Klavier, are you sure you're up for this? Apollo will probably want your head after this."
"Ja, Fräulein. I can handle Herr Forehead."
I smiled, "Good." Once everyone was set up, ie with the camera filming and me pressed against the wall by Klavier, me in my costume, that was when Apollo came round the corner, in his costume for the film, "(Y/n)? You here? Are you ready to- What in the-?!" Klavier immediately stopped 'kissing my neck' like he'd been pretending to do. My plan had been to make Apollo think I was cheating on him so the feelings behind the acting would be real. Not technically acting, but the scene was taking ages to film.
"Oh, hey, Polly. Did you need something?"
"Y-You're cheating on me?!" I looked towards Klavier who had stopped pinning me against the wall when Apollo had showed up and sent him an apologetic look, before punching him in the face, "How could you!? I-"
Before I could finish, Apollo grabbed my arm, tears in his eyes, "(Y/n)... I'm breaking up with you."
"W-What?! Y-you're b-breaking up w-with me?" I cried out, tears staining my eyes.
"Yes, I can't trust you anymore! You cheated on me, of course I'm going to break up with you!"
I fell to my knees, "Please don't! I love you. Please! I'm sorry! I love you so much. It was forced on me."
This time, instead of him coming to comfort me, he walked off, "We're over."
I sent a wink to the camera person to stop recording but instead of standing up and wiping my tears like I'd done with every other take of the scene, I stayed on the floor sobbing.
"Fräulein?"
"This was a mistake. I shouldn't have done this. And Klavier sorry for punching you."
"It's okay, Fräulein, I understand it was for the effect."
"Do you want a hug?" I nodded and he bent down, hugging me and brought me into his shoulder, "It's okay, Fräulein. Just go and talk to him and if that doesn't work I'll talk to him. Explain that is was just fake to get Herr Forehead's real reaction for the film."
I nodded.
---------------
"Apollo?" I asked, knocking on the door of his dressing room/trailer thingy (Idk what it's called).
"WHAT DO YOU WANT?!"
"I want to talk to you, Polly."
"Well, LEAVE. I don't want to talk to you." I sighed, "Then I'll have to do this the hard way," I replied opening the door and entering, closing said doo behind me. I snuck up behind him and wrapped my arms around his neck from behind so he couldn't move before starting to kiss the back of his neck while nuzzling into him, "Polly, I-I'm so sorry. I haven't been cheating on you with Klavier. I thought thaat if I made it look like I was, then you'd be able to do the scene. Klavier wasn't even kissing my neck, he was just pretending. I only love you, Apollo. I love you so much. I'd never cheat on you. Ever."
"R-really?" he asked turning to me, his tears staining his cheeks. I nodded and brought my hand up to wipe the tears, "Really. Polly, it was fake to get your reaction for filming. Otherwise, let's face it, we would have been here until well past the release date of the film."
"I believe you. I love you too, (Y/n). I'd never break up with you."
--------------EXTENDED ENDING
"Wow! That break-up scene was really realistic. How did you manage that?"
"Well, Athena, as Trucy will know, a great magician never reveals their secrets," I replied kissing Apollo's cheek.
