I can’t see what’s happening behind me. I just hear Frank singing. I love his voice so much. It’s so soothing to me. He sounds so sensuous. The music picks up, I hear his heels clicking. And then SPLASH. The fog behind me starts blowing away. I hear him singing again. “Don’t dream it. Be it.” He repeats that several times. The rest of us turn around towards the pool, repeating Frank’s words. It felt like we were all in some kind of a trance. We all are walking to the pool. Frank is on an S.S Titanic lifesaver float. We fall in the pool. We were gravitated to him. Like a moth to a flame. We went back up to the surface. Swimming towards him. Once we’re all near him, he gets off of his pool float and everyone starts making out with each other. I don’t know if it was effects due to them being Medusa’d, but everyone seemed way more confident, like they had no worries, no fears. Rocky and Janet were mostly together, Janet would occasionally go to Frank, Columbia, and Brad. Columbia and Brad were mostly together too, it was weird not seeing him get jealous, same with Frank, he was always so possessive over Rocky, and he was just letting Janet have free reign over him. I stuck by Frank, of course, but I would go to Columbia every so often. I was drawn to her too, which was weird given she’s just my friend. Maybe it’s something in the water? I don’t know. Frank would pull me to him every time I was spending a bit too much time with Columbia. He only did that with me, was he being possessive over me too?

Our makeup was wiping off, I was shocked it didn’t fully come off by now. I tried to spend every moment with Frank. It was almost morning, who knows if we would head out by then… I don’t want to leave. I don’t want to leave him. He could drop me at any moment, like how he did with Eddie and Columbia, but at least I had him for that moment. I have him for this moment. And I’m happy. I’m more confident cause of it. He is what brought it out in me. His confidence alone was infectious. Who knows, I could stay, I could help with the castle. No one would even notice I’m gone. I was planning on leaving Denton anyways. Frank notices me zoning out. He wraps one of his legs around me. I snap out of it and I’m back in the series of moments happening. I wrap my arms around him. I smile and kiss him.

I’m happy.

The music stops. Frank gets on Rocky’s shoulders. The rest of us going to the opposite end of the pool. We hang onto the edge and start splashing the water. Frank goes on to sing a more upbeat song. Frank gets out of the pool and we follow. We form a kick line. I see Dr. Scott with a pair of fishnets and he’s moving his legs? First off, how? Second, when’d he get de-medusa’d? Did Frank do it before his entrance?

We’re all dancing in a kick line still. Frank does a spin and we hear the doors burst open. We’re all frozen. I can see two silhouettes. It’s hard to tell who it is with the stage lights in our faces. And then we hear Riff Raff’s voice. “Frank-N-Furter, it’s all over! Your mission is a failure. Your lifestyle’s too extreme.” I turn to Frank. He looks just as confused as the rest of us, if not more. I put my arms around him. He looks at me and puts one of his arms around me as well. “I’m your new commander. You now are my prisoner. We return to Transylvania, prepare the transit beam!” I hold on tighter to Frank. I don’t want them to leave. Frank holds out his free arm. “WAIT! I can explain!”



(A/N) I was struggling so much with this chapter, idk why hhhhh. It was supposed to be 2 chapters; the one it is now and a second one called “Wild and Untamed Things” but they were both too short, so I decided to combine them. Was that a good call? Maybe, idk, I still (personally) don’t like it jsdkhlshdklh
