{CHAPTER 2: It's all for art}

After stopping at the cafe, y/n continued her journey back home. On her way, she went to the store and picked up a few things for her night with James. Once she got home she picked up her bags and the drinks she got from the cafe and then walked inside. Snow and Nightmare were ecstatic to say the least, jumping about under her feet, they smelled the treats she had bought for them. 

"Hahaha you two have excellent noses" y/n laughed as she walked into the kitchen to set the bags down. After which she gave the two pups their treats, proceeded to the living room, and stood in front of the disfigured body as she crossed one arm over her chest and cupped her chin with her other hand. Her e/c eyes had a terrifying gleam to them while that menacing smile painted her delicate features yet again "Where shall you go, my latest creation," she pondered "The park, in front of town hall, or maybe.....no that's far too outrageous." 

After a lot of thought, y/n decided on the town's most popular park, right in front of its prized fountain. Once she decided where it would go, she donned a black hoodie and some black sweatpants, loaded the piece up, and drove to the park. After situating the 'art piece' she traveled back home to start on dinner for that night.

Once James arrived at y/n's home they immediately started talking about their days over glasses of wine. James had to deal with an annoying Karen and her daughter (whose name was Karen). Meanwhile y/n told James about her recording sessions. "Yep I looked him straight in the eye and said 'And that's why I ain't nobody's b**ch' and everyone burst out laughing, it was great" she laughed taking a sip of wine and standing up "But anyway, why don't we eat now," she said over her shoulder as she went into the kitchen to plate the food.

Once y/n was in the kitchen she took two plates and put f/f on each. She then looked back towards the living room to make sure James wasn't watching and grabbed a seasoning bottle full of a substance similar to salt, sprinkled a bit on his plate, and put it back. Then she grabbed the plates and went back into the living room "Here you are Hon" she sighed sitting down and placing both the plates on the black coffee table.

"Thank, wow it looks amazing y/n!" James exclaimed as he began to dig in, y/n sat there for a few seconds watching him eat before taking a bite herself. Once all the food was gone she took the plates back to the kitchen, set them in the sink, and walked black, and took a seat. James looked over at her as she sat down "Whoo, I think I had a bit too much to drink" he breathed, wobbling back and forth on the couch.

"Maybe, do you think you'll be able to get up the stairs to the room?" Y/n inquired, raising an eyebrow. James looked down at his legs as he tried standing up then back at her "No I don't think so, I'll just crash on the...." he started before passing out and falling back onto the couch with a small 'thud'. Y/n looked down at the man, her signature menacing smile creeping across her face once again 'It seems our dear James had a bit of a higher tolerance to the poison I slipped in his food, he should've been knocked out about 2 minutes after ingesting it' she thought to herself, chuckling, as the pups sauntered into the room dragging a tarp behind them. Y/n pulled on a pair of gloves while looking down at the small animals "Snow Nightmare, let's get to work"

[Yet another timeskip (I'm sorryTvT)]

As James slowly awoke, y/n's living room came back into focus. He looked around for her but she was nowhere to be found, as he tried to stand up he realized he had been tied to a chair. He then began struggling causing creaking sounds to fill the room. Upon hearing this y/n knew he was now awake and went back into the room. "I see you're awake now darling" she proclaimed, her unsympathetic e/c eyes searing into his scared crimson ones. "What's going on y/n, why am I tied to a chair?"

The woman ignored him and started to drag things into the room with the help of the pups, a cross, vines, roses, and a suspicious clear liquid. James realized all these things were eerily similar to the bodies of the recent murders he had seen on the news. He slowly began to realize the situation he was in and began to shake "W-w-what are y-you gonna do to me" y/n glanced back at him and responded in a haunting voice "Well darling, as I'm sure you've figured out, I am the serial killer everyone's been talking about, so why don't you use that big brain of yours and figure it out."

James looked horrified "You-you're gonna kill me. B-but why?! I didn't do anything to you!! I-I thought you loved me!!" He screamed, tears streaming down his face. Y/n was completely unbothered and responded with "See James, I love seeing the moment a person's trust is broken. And the heartbreak in your eyes is quite glorious. But, you're right, you didn't do anything to me. Sadly though you're mistaken, I never did love you, I simply loved how I could use you." as she caressed his cheek. James fell silent and dropped his head, his brunette hair falling into his face. After a short silence, he gazed back up at the woman in front of him, "then why" he whimpered. Y/n looked into those piercing crimson eyes of his one last time "Simple dear. It's all for art" she breathed before slitting his throat.
