The opera house was hosting a masquerade ball! Partially to celebrate the new chandelier after the Phantom had destroyed the original months earlier, and partially to celebrate the disappearance of the Phantom all together
You yourself were especially relieved by the Phantom's disappearance, because while he was rather caring towards you, his star performer, it became frightening and overwhelming to constantly have him around
This ball allowed for some much needed reprieve, you dancing and chatting with your fellow performers and colleagues
However it became rather apparent that the Phantom was not gone when a gloved hand grazed your jawline from behind, the other wrapping around your waist as a deep voice danced it's way to your ear
"Miss me, love?"
