After the show ends, you're in your dressing room that Fantoccio had set up just for you. You're fixing your hair and looking in the mirror. You're humming a little bit. You say, "Well, that was quite a show. They loved it." You hear this, "They certainly did, Miss. (Y/N). They most certainly did."

You gasp and you look back to see Fantoccio in the doorway. You say, "Oh. Fantoccio. Hello there. Didn't see you there. I... Wait." You look in the mirror and you don't see him there. You look back at the doorway to see him there.

You look back and forth at each and you say, "What?... H-how are you doing that?" He smirks and says, "Magic, my dear. That's how I do it. It's in my puppet blood to trick." You say, "Puppet blood? I-I mean no offense. I've just never heard of a puppet with blood." He says, "You have, now."

He walks in and he sits in the chair across from yours. He faces you. You face him. He says, "I gotta tell you, (Y/N)... You did fantastic up there. Very nice performance for your first day here." You smile and you say, "Oh. Why, thank you."

He says, "Sure thing. I look forward to seeing you here, tomorrow. Because tomorrow will be much better. And I especially want YOU up there. They love you, already." He looks away and mumbles to himself, "And so do I.~" 

He faces you and he says, "4pm is the time the show starts. This will be the best one, yet. Just you wait." You say, "I'm interested, now." He says, "It's a surprise. But it'll certainly make ME one happy puppet." He smirks. He gets up and he says, "Finish up what you're doing, my dear. Tomorrow. 4pm. That's your cue to be up on that stage." 

You smile and you say, "Thank you, Fantoccio." He grins and says, "The pleasure is all mine." He turns away and walks out. He shuts the door and he chuckles and says, "I've got her wrapped around my finger. Skeptic over what I have in mind for her. Little is she aware... of what I have planned." He walks off.

********************************************************

The next day. 3:49pm. You're at the theater. You're in your red outfit. The more Fantoccio sees you in it, the more he admires you. It's like he's wanting you closer and closer. And his plan for you... is about to happen as soon as the show starts.

You're in your dressing room, fixing your hair. You hear a knock and you yell, "Who is it?!" You hear a security guard yelling, "Miss. (Y/N)! You're on in about ten to eleven minutes!" You say, "Thank you, sir! I'll be right out!" You continue fixing your hair.

You get done and you get up. You walk out of the dressing room and you walk down the hallway and towards the stage. You say, "Alright. Day two on stage here in Goatshire. I wonder what Mr. Fantoccio has planned for this one. Must be interesting." Fantoccio happens to be nearby and he smirks and says, "Oh, it will be my dear. It will be. That will by my cue to bring her with me... and confess my love for her.~"

A moment later, you're on the stage and you're doing your acting and singing. Fantoccio is up there with you, performing as well. He faces the audience and he says, "Ladies and gentlemen! Tonight's performance will be the best by far! I've got quite a show to put on, tonight! Let's give a round of applause to our lovely and talented (Y/N) (L/N)!" There's applauding.

As you do your act, Fantoccio smirks and gets out what looks to be a ball. He says, "For my final show stopper... feast your eyes on this!" He lets the ball go and it floats. But then suddenly, smoke blows up from inside the ball and it fills the stage. People run out of the auditorium, coughing and or screaming and you begin to faint.

Fantoccio chuckles and approaches you. He kneels down and he picks you up. He looks at you and he sighs and smiles. He strokes your face and he says, "And now you come with me, my sweet.~" He kisses you on the forehead and he walks off, carrying you on his way out.

***************************************************

Moments later, you begin to wake up. You sit up and you groan. You say, "Wha... What the hell happened? Did I pass out? A-and from smoke?" You open your eyes a little more and you look around. You say, "Where... Where am I? Who's place is this?" You sit upon your knees and you say, "Hello?! Anyone here?!"

You hear a familiar raspy voice saying, "I am. You're at MY place, my sweet." You look over to see Fantoccio standing there. Smile on his face. You say, "Fantoccio? What's going on?" He says, "Lovely performance, my dear. Absolutely beautiful. Because that's exactly what you are, (Y/N)." He approaches you.

He cups your chin and he says, "But I couldn't hold back any longer. Not from you, (Y/N)." You say, "What exactly are you getting to, Fantoccio?" He says, "You want the truth, (Y/N)? The truth is... I have fallen madly in love with you. Madly and deeply.~" You gasp and you say, "C-come again?"

He chuckles and says, "That's right, my sweet. You heard me, correctly. The moment you stepped foot into my theater, I have been trying to get you close to me. That night you sat with the rest of the audience... I was serenading YOU. I have never seen such a beautiful creature in my life. I had to have you up there, regardless if you could act or not. I just wanted you close. The dress I had for you... You look absolutely gorgeous in it.~" 

You find yourself blushing at his compliment. You look at him. He says, "Even if it was to kidnap you like I did just now. I needed you near me, (Y/N). Hear that beautiful voice of yours. Your British accent is like a lyrical angel speaking to me. You're perfect to me, (Y/N). The ideal lady." 

You're taken aback by what he's telling you. He turns around and he says, "Yeah, I know what you're thinking... How dare I, huh? This was my way of letting you know that I admire you so much, my dear." 

He suddenly hears you saying this, "Was kidnapping me really necessary?" He raises a brow and he turns to face you. You look at him. He says, "How else could I have done it?" You say, "Fantoccio... I have something to tell you, myself." He says, "Go on. I'm listening." 

You say, "The compliments you've given to me just now. And even before when you have accepted me up there on the stage to perform with you... I was thrilled. If you liked me enough to do all of this besides the kidnapping part... you could've just said so." He looks at you.

You sigh and you say, "Kidnapping me wasn't really necessary, Fantoccio. All you had to do was tell me how you felt about me." He says, "W-wait. Y-you mean... you like me, too?" You smile and you nod. You say, "You've been really sweet to me, despite the kidnapping part. Then again, you did no real harm to me. Even with setting off that smoke bomb. I know, now. You did that to have me close, right?" 

He says, "Yes." You giggle and you say, "Well... You're lucky I'm looking up to you as my manager. You got me in there. And you find me pretty." He says, "Pretty? You're the most beautiful thing I've ever seen in my life, (Y/N). I was willing to do anything to have you near me. I..." 

You gently grab his face and he looks at you. You smile and you lean in whispering, "Do shut up, darling.~" He blushes and says, "Your best acting, by far.~" You say, "I'm not acting.~" He blushes and he smirks. You suddenly place a kiss on his lips. His eyes widen and he smirks a bit into the kiss. 

He wraps his arms around you and he immediately kisses you back. This felt like the best day of his life and he loves to perform and act on stage with magic and all. But at this moment... he felt like he was in heaven. 

You pull away and you say, "Just a few more days of being together and maybe I'll consider, oh I don't know..." You look at him. He raises a brow. You smirk and you say, "Letting you have me to the point where we sleep together.~" 

He blushes mad and he smirks. He says, "Oh ho ho... Hey. Lookie there.~" He looks at you and he says, "Exactly my thoughts.~" You say, "Not tonight, though." He says, "In a few nights?" You say, "Yes." He grins and whispers, "Yay." 

You giggle and you say, "Oh, do stop you pervy but adorable puppet man. You're lucky I like you too, Fantoccio... You hungry?" He says, "A little." You say, "Good. I'll cook... Right. Come on." You both get up and he follows you elsewhere so you can both eat.

***********************************************************

Later into being together, you end up his wife and you end up with a daughter you name Melony. Yes. Fantoccio was able to conceive, even for a puppet. And he's protective. He'll use his magic to scare off anyone that messes with his little girl.

(End.)
