------------------------------------------------------

You twirled around the stage effortlessly, your feet brushing against the harsh surface of it with the quick, gentleness of a feather. Jimmy watched you in utter astonishment as you gracefully moved & danced to the beat of the song. This wasn't the first he got the opportunity to watch the love of his life dance, but it always felt like that very first time to him every time he watched you. You never ceased to amaze him with your talent & he swore you were the only reason the Freak Show had been selling out these past few months. Your mesmerising talent was sure to attract such large crowds.

You were too engrossed in your performance to notice Jimmy watching you so gleefully, but you knew that he was watching, so you made sure it was as good as you could make it. You loved performing for Jimmy, not just because he loved it, but because it reminded you that you shouldn't be so harsh & critical of yourself. Jimmy was always quick to remind you to be more appreciative of your gift & he always thought you were so incredibly talented.

As you twirled into your final step & slowly fell into the splits, you flashed a smile towards your boyfriend & he eagerly shot you a grin in return. You blew him a kiss before you graciously stood up, offering a bow to the crowd before you turned around to head backstage.

By the time you walked behind the curtains, Jimmy was already waiting for you, a wide grin on is face. You squeaked & practically jumped into his arms, attacking his face with kisses. He laughed & held you tightly, scrunching his face as you repeatedly kissed him, "Aww shucks, I missed ya too, Darlin'."

"I missed you more," you murmured & he took that as an opportunity to kiss you. His warm lips pressed against yours gently yet feverishly, kissing you with a passionate reverence. Your hands wrapped around his neck as you kissed back, letting your fingers softly curl into his hair. He grunted & deepened the kiss, squeezing your hips softly.

Just as things were starting to get good, Elsa came over, clearly unamused with your obviously public display of affection, "Jimmy! You and your little lover better help clean up or I'll make both of your curfews at six!" Jimmy mumbled something incoherent under his breath as he pulled away from you. You just laughed & rolled your eyes, going to help clean up. Unfortunately, Elsa had plans to keep you two separated, "Actually, Jimmy, why don't you show our newest member around?" she motioned to the girl beside her. You eyed her up & down, unimpressed by her blonde hair & proper clothes. Jimmy, on the other hand, seemed delighted by her, his signature grin appearing on his face.

He walked over to her, his grin widening as he winked at her, "Well hello, Doll. What's ya name?"

She batted her eyelashes at him & you rolled your eyes, feeling your lunch start to rise up from your stomach, "Maggie," she spoke. Her voice was so obnoxiois, you thought, there was no way Elsa was really going to let her be a part of the Freak Show.

"Well, Maggie," your blood boiled at the way he said her name, "what's a mighty fine woman like yaself doin' in a place like this?"

"I'm a fortune teller," she said. You rolled your eyes again. She was full of shit.

Not being able to take anymore, you walked away from the two & went to work at getting the tents down; however, curiosity got the best of you. You periodically watched Jimmy & Maggie as they walked around the grounds & each time, you only got more & more upset by Jimmy's flirtatious ways. He was naturally a flirtatious man, but he kept his flirting in check when the two of you started dating. Now, it seemed as if he wasn't even your boyfriend anymore with the way he was staring at Maggie.
