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

"Oh Jimmyyyyyy!" you sang as you made your way over to his trailer. You had spent the whole day downtown to pick up a ton of shit Elsa said was needed for the show, so you hadn't seen your boyfriend all day. The two of you had been dating for nearly a year now & things were going well. You guys were pretty serious, in your opinion, although not serious enough for marriage. After all, it had only been a year & with the all the responsibilities of the show, there was no time to even think about marriage.

The smile on your face was evident as you got closer to Jimmy's trailer. You had bought him a new pair of mittens while you were running errands for Elsa earlier, since his old & only pair were starting to get worn out. You knew he would really appreciate the gesture & you couldn't wait to see the look on his face when he tried them on.

As you made your way to the cabin, you noticed it was fairly quiet, which was very odd. Jimmy was always having noise coming from his trailer, whether it was blasting loud music, singing to himself, or practicing his act, his trailer was only quiet when he was sleeping or gone.

You raised an eyebrow as you carefully opened the door, peering inside, "Jimmy?"

Your eyes widened & your heart fell into your stomach when you saw the reason why it was so quiet.

"What the fuck?!" Jimmy immediately pulled away from Maggie, who shot you an unapologetic smirk.

Jimmy stared at you, wide-eyed, "Darlin', wait---"

"Oh no don't you 'Darlin' me!" you glared at him, "What do you think you're doing, kissing the fortune teller, when you're my boyfriend?"

He started walking towards you, his hands held up in surrender, "Please, Doll, jus' hear me out."

"No, I don't want to hear jackshit from you," you turned your attention towards Maggie, walking towards her, "And as for you," you grabbed one of the mittens you bought & slapped her right across the face with it, "You better stay out of my way here, bitch, or you'll be looking for trouble," Maggie stared at you in disbelief as you threw the mittens on the ground & started to walk back towards the door. When you reached it, you walked out, but Jimmy grabbed your hand to stop you.

"Please, let me explain," he begged, looking at you sadly.

You just looked at him blankly, "Go to Hell, Jimmy," you pried your hand free from his grasp & slammed the door in his face before you walked away.

At this point, tears were streaming so rapidly & so much down your face that you thought you were going to become dehydrated. You were thankful that you were able to keep it together until after you left the company of the two scumbags. They didn't deserve to see your tears.

As you were aimlessly walking around & crying, you stopped at Bette & Dot's tent, causing a slight smile to appear on your face. You loved the twins so much & you knew that they'd be able to cheer you up.

You made your way inside their tent, calling out to them, "Bette? Dot?" you looked around the tent & finally caught sight of the twins doing their hair.

"Come in!" they called & you smiled softly as you made your way inside. You sat in the chair beside them & the large mirror, sniffling as you wiped away your tears. Bette immediately gasped & stopped brushing her hair, "Oh no why are you crying? Did something happen?"

Dot scowled & also stopped messing with her hair, "Did somebody hurt you? I'll skin them alive & pick apart their bones!" she threatened.

"It was...I-I caught Jimmy...kissing Maggie..." the twins gasped in shock.

"He did what?!" Dot stood up, "Why, I'm gonna beat that boy ten feet into the ground!"

"No, Dot!" Bette said, "Maybe he wasn't trying to cheat---"

"Wasn't trying?! Sister, do you hear yourself? He kissed Maggie! You don't just kiss someone all willy-nilly."

"But you know Maggie! She's always throwing herself at Jimmy & making googly eyes at him---"

"Wait," you interrupted the twins' banther & they turned to look at you, "Maggie has been trying to hook up with Jimmy for a while now?"

Bette nodded, "Yes! She's always batting her eyelashes at him & touching his arm---"

"Don't forget that time she literally skipped into his arms," Dot added, "It's pretty disgusting how desperate she is."

Bette nodded, "But Jimmy always told her no, that he was with you & didn't want nothing to do with her."

You froze, "He did?"

Bette nodded, "He really loves you & I'm sure this is all a misunderstanding."

You sighed, burying your face in your hands, "God, I'm such an idiot," you groaned, "I should have just given him the chance to explain."

"You still can," Bette said. You looked up at her in confusion, but she just grinned. Dot rolled her eyes & gestured towards the front of the tent.

You turned to where she was gesturing & right there, stood none other than the man of the hour himself, Jimmy.

You stood up & practically ran towards him, pulling him into a hug as you cried again. He was confused but glad that you were acknowledging him, so he returned your embrace, "I'm so sorry," you sobbed.

"You're sowwy? Fo' what?"

"For not listening to you."

He sighed with relief, realizing you weren't upset with him anymore, "It's al'igh', you didn't know Maggie had jus' shoved 'erself on me like that withou' my consen'. She does that a lo', ya know."

You nodded, "Yes, I do know, now. Bette & Dot told me all about the way she acts around you."

He gently cupped your face in his hands & moved your head up so that you were looking at him, "I would neva, eva do somethin' like that to ya, Doll; neva," he smiled softly, his eyes beginning to tear up, "I love ya too damn much to hurt ya."

You sniffled & returned his smile, "Aw Jimmy, don't cry," he smiled goofily as you wiped his tears, "I love you, too," he grinned & leaned down to press a soft kiss to your lips.

"Gross!" Dot exclaimed distastefully, "I'm glad y'all sorted everything out, but please, don't do that in my tent."

You & Jimmy laughed, "Sorry!" he gently pulled you both out of Bette & Dot's tent to continue your kiss fest.

Before you could kiss him; however, Jimmy stopped you & grinned, "I mus' say; seein' ya slap Maggie like that with mah new gloves was funny as Hell."

You laughed, "That's what she gets for kissing my man."

"Your man & yours alone," he murmured as he leaned closer.

"Damn right," you whispered & he pressed his lips to yours once more.
