The crowd cheering and applauding as the great magician ends his performance with a final trick, everyone was happy and satisfied, except for you. while he was performing you saw through one of his tricks, maybe you payed close attention to detail or maybe you knew him too well enough to see through it. but a slight change of his expression was all it took for you to understand that something was off...he was injured. and the painful expression you saw on his face, even for a second...it was all covered up by an act.

you grabbed his arm and dragged him backstage into his changing room once the performance was over, he was a bit surprised and confused but decided to tease you on the way.

"oh, ma cherie~ I didn't knew you missed me this much, I apologize for making you wait for so long...but I have to say, the feeling's mutual."
