As the concert grew closer and closer, Rosella got herself ready. She put on very subtle makeup and fixed her hair a bit.
Meanwhile, Lucas, Kumatora, Boney, Nana, Flint, Pierre, and Bianca were still backstage hanging out. Even the Masked Man was relaxing ever so slightly.
"I can't believe the King let DCMC put on a concert," Nana said excitedly. "I mean I know he's all horrible and stuff for everything he's done but like—well—uh..."
Nana got all embarrassed after she realized she'd been talking everyone's ears off again. Lucas looked at Nana with adoration. He had fallen so hard for her that he forgot all about his fight against Claus for Rosella's affection.
Lucas smiled, blushing. Oh, how he loved hearing her yap.
Boney snuggled up to Lucas and Nana.
"King P only wants what's best for the world," The Masked Man mumbled.
"Does he?" Kumatora asked rhetorically. "Does he really?"
The Masked Man glared at Kumatora.
"I'm just sayin' he did order you to kidnap your crush for his own sick and twisted motives."
That definitely got a reaction out of the Masked Man. But before he could respond, Rosella came out of the girl's bathroom.
"I'm finished. Does anyone need to use the bathroom?" She asked.
"I do," Nana said as she walked past Rosella. "You look sooo cute," she said before going inside.
The Masked Man's heart skipped a beat as he saw her all dolled up for the concert.
"Aww, you look lovely, sweetie," Bianca gushed before handing The Masked Man a DCMC tee shirt and a pair of ripped jeans. "Here, put these on!"
The Masked Man nodded thankfully at Bianca's kind gesture. He then went into the boy's bathroom to change into the outfit. He kept his Masked Man attire tucked away in the cabinet under the bathroom sink and went back out.
Bianca gasped excitedly as the Masked Man came out of the boy's bathroom.
Flint's eyes widened as he saw his son without his helmet for the first time in three years.
The Masked Man looked around the room as another memory came back to him.
"Okay, kids! We're going to take some pictures of you by the sunflowers!" Bianca said, holding up a camera.
"Okay," Rosella chirped, dragging Lucas and Claus over.
"I don't wanna," Claus whined, pouting.
"Why not?" Lucas asked him.
"I just don't like them," Claus answered.
"Pleeease?" Rosella asked, batting her eyes. "I think you look picture perfect."
This caused Claus to blush.
"Then I guess I'll take a photo or two with you guys...but not because I want to or anything!"
Bianca giggled before positioning the camera. "Alright, you three! Say 'Fuzzy Pickles'!"
"Fuzzy Pickles!" The three chirped.
Lucas held up a peace sign, Claus made a funny face, and Rosella grinned and hugged the two of them.
The Masked Man held Rosella close, giving the camera a strong and possessive look.
Rosella was beet red as The Masked Man held her in his arms.
Bianca gushed and snapped pictures.
"Oh, you two are so cute!"
