"That was a lovely performance."
Jimmy Darling turned at the sight of Rosalie smiling at him from the tent entrance. Her blue jumpsuit was vibrant against their drab surroundings. It made her look happy. He smiled, shrugging, "Thanks, though Elsa didn't seem to like it much."
Rosalie rolled her eyes, strolling up to the stage that Jimmy still stood on. She looked up at him, always smiling, "She's probably just jealous, you have a good voice, the song suits you."
He smiled wider, walking down the steps until they stood side by side. Jimmy had missed her a lot. "When did you get back?"
"Just in time to hear you practice. Dandy dropped me off before the other storm could move in."
"Are you two dating?" Jimmy asked, unable to keep the words from spilling out. Rosalie looked at him in surprise, her brown eyes confused as they walked side by side to exit.
"I'm really not sure," Rosalie sighed. "He told his mother we were, but he never formally asked."
"I guess that's how it is with Maggie and me,"
"Is everything alright with you two?" Rosalie asked, looking up at the darkening sky.
"We're just great," Jimmy smiled, seeing Maggie across the field at her small tent. She was talking to Richard Spencer. "I really like her."
Rosalie followed his gaze, "I'm really happy for you, Jimmy," she playfully punched his arm. He laughed, throwing an arm over her shoulders. "She's beautiful, and I've seen the way she looks at you, you know."
Jimmy pretended to make a disgusted face before sticking his tongue out at her, grinning when she gagged and swatted at him. "That's disgusting!"
"I just hope I don't mess it up, you know?" he sighed, still watching Maggie. "I never cared for someone like this before."
Rosalie went to assure him before the sight of Dandy caught her attention. Rosalie squinted at him, seeing him talking to Bette and Dot. She thought he had gone home.
"-Rosalie?"
"I-uhh, do you see Dandy over there, or am I just hallucinating?" Rosalie questioned.
Jimmy arched his neck, "I see him too. Are you oka-?" He paused when Rosalie started heading in their direction, "-Okay..." he followed after her, dodging the puddles of mud in the grassy field.
Rosalie had a pit in her stomach that she didn't understand. She could feel Jimmy beside her, and usually, that would have been a calming feeling. But something was off, and she wasn't sure being in his company was going to help.
