S: I'M AN OLD FRIEND OFERIK WHO HE HASN'T MET YET!!!

C: Why are you yelling at me!?

S: BECAUSE YOU'RE AN IDIOT!!!!!

C: I'm calling Raoul... I will not be treated like this! *takes out phone and dials Raoul's number*

S: YOU FOOL!!!!!!!! Fine. Have your pretty fop come and save you while a good man dies for love of you.

C: *hangs up* Okay I'll make a deal with you... I'm gonna call Erik and see what he thinks.

S: good. What will you ask him?

C: If he still loves me...

S: I'm sure he does.

C: *calls him and it starts to ring*

E: *phone rings but he ignores it*

C: *leaves voicemail and her voice rings out and Erik hears her* Hey Erik it's me Christine... I want to talk to you... So call me back when you can.

E: *heart skips when she calls*Christine... *whispers* *calls her back*

C: *answers the phone*

E: Christine... *voice is weak due to lack of food and water*

C: Hi Erik... *says nervously* How've you been..?

E: alright. *says it but his voice says differently*

C: You don't sound alright...

E: *coughs before he could respond* *moans in pain*

C: Erik! I'm coming!

E: *gasps* Christine...don't. Don't worry your beautiful head about me. *voice laced with pain*

C: No I'm coming over this instant! *hangs up and gets in her car and starts to drive*

E: *ends the call and lays back against the bed*

C: *arrives at his lair and runs inside calling his name* Erik?? Erik where are you?

E: *bite back a moan of pain so she won't find him* she doesn't need me.... *whispers to himself*

C: Erik please...! You're all I have left...

E: *hears her and whisper/calls* Christine...

C: *rushes to his side* Oh you're so pale...Erik you're dying!

E: *shakes head faintly* so I deserve...

C: No... You don't deserve to die... I'll get you some food and water. You're starving yourself!

E: No! Don't bother. There's not a scrap of food in the house... *sags against pillows* Let me starve!

C: Why? Why do you want to die!?

E: *sighs* life isn't worth living...

C: Why not?

E: I love you... *winces in pain* and you love and deserve another. I can't stand to live...w-without you.

C: Then I will not leave you Erik...

E: no...go back to him. You deserve a man.

C: You're a man Erik... You're a sweet and wonderful man.

E: I'm a monster. Let me die and you'll do the world a great service. *pulls as far away from her as he can* I was a fool to think one could love me... *mumbles to self*

C: B-but... I love you Erik. You can't die...

E: you can't love me! Don't you see?! *looks at her with tears welling to his eyes* no one can love me... It's impossible!

C: I do Erik! Why else would I have kissed you before you sent me away with Raoul!? Why else would I have come here to help you!?

E: because you pity me! I hate pity! It's worse than hate...

C: Erik please... I don't know how to get it through to you...

E: *tries to say something but is too weak to do so*

C: *grabs a glass from the kitchen and fills it with sink water and gives it to him* Drink.

E: *drinks with her help* T-thank y-you...

C: Want another glass? I can fetch you some more..

E: I fear water won't help. It'll just wet my tongue before I die.

C: Then I'll get food!

E: *is too weak to reject it*

C: *rushes outside and gathers some apples from the trees and goes back inside and gives one she sliced into pieces to him*

E: *eats it because he can't resist*

C: There you go Erik... Now how about some music while you eat?

E: *smiles and nods weakly* I haven't heard music since you left.

C: *plays some on her phone but as a surprise for Erik, she sings to the melody*

E: *closes eyes and thoroughly enjoys it*

C: *keeps some classical music on for him but stops singing* Have I lost my voice over the years?

E: *shakes head* no, its as beautiful as when you sang for me the last time... More beautiful if that is possible.

C: *smiles* Your voice is getting less raspy... I'm healing you up.

E: *tries to smile* thank you....

C: I'm not leaving you anymore... I'm staying here. You won't have to worry about being alone again.

E: but, what about...him. *growls out the name for him*

C: *chuckles lightly* You're still jealous...?

E: I still hate him. *closes his eyes*

C: Don't worry... He's not in the way... He cheated on me.

E: *sits straight up* I'll kill him! I swear! *gasps for air as he doesn't have the strength to sit up*

C: Shhh... *lays him back down* It's okay. He cheated on me with five other girls... So it's not that big of a deal.

E: *gasps for air* no, it is a big deal!! I should kill him five times over...Cheating on my beautiful angel!

C: Erik please calm down... You need to relax and breathe...

E: how could he want more when he had all this...? *strokes her cheek* how could he cheat on such beauty and talent...?

C: I don't know Erik... Maybe I'm just not good enough for anyone..

E: *gasps and a look of shock came over his face* no, no one is good enough for you! You're an angel!

C: Well... It was his choice and he decided to be sneaky with other girls... What's done is done.

E: true... What's done is done. I love you, Christine. I always will...

C: I love you too... *kisses his cheek gently*

E: *eyes flutter close and he smiles faintly* a kiss...

C: And there's more where that came from... *smiles at Erik*

E: *opens his eyes and smiles* more kisses? More?! What a luxury!

C: *giggles at his reaction* Just kisses from me can't be a luxury...

E: when I have only been kissed three times in my life, including this one, it is a luxury. Especially from the woman I would die for...

C: *holds his hand in hers, warming up his freezing cold hand* Then you shall receive another. *kisses his ice cold lips softly*

E: *kisses back gently* thank you. Thank you. *smiles*

C: Think nothing of it Erik... *smiles at him*

E: I shall prize each kiss as if it was my last. *squeezes her hand* it may be.

C: No... Don't say that. We're going to live happily together. You and me...

E: you and me. *smiles softly* you and me. Beautiful words.

C: I'll always be with you Erik... Whether you want me or not.

E: why wouldn't I want you?

C: Your own reasons...

E: what reasons? Christine, you're my life! Without, I am less than nothing.

C: Thanks Erik... Would you like anything else to make you feel better?

E: nothing. Just stay here. *brings her hands to his lips* Don't leave me.

C: I won't... You have my word.

E: thank you. *dozes for a while*

C: *goes to sit in the living room until he wakes up*

E: *sleeps and then shoots straight up*Christine! *shouts, fearing it was all a dream*

C: *rushes into his room*Erik! What's wrong?!

E: are you real? *stares at her*

C: Of course I'm real Erik... *strokes his cheek lovingly*

E: *captures her hand against his cheek* I thought it had been another one of those accursed nightmares.

C: You've had nightmares about me?

E: they weren't while I was in them. We were always together. But, it became a nightmare when I woke alone. I haven't slept in weeks because I couldn't bare to face it.

C: Well now your dream can come true. *grins*

E: they already have... I do have a question for you though.

C: Ask away.

E: what made you call me?

C: A friend that you haven't met yet encouraged me to see that you're the one for me. She yelled at me a lot and called me stupid twice.

E: a friend I haven't met yet... I shall have to meet her.... And, she called you WHAT?

C: An idiot.

E: how dare she!?! That is uncalled for. You're not an idiot.

C: I am an idiot though Erik...

E: no! You're brilliant! You're no idiot!

C: Maybe I should get her down here..

E: please do! I need to correct her! She is in error!

C: I'll be right back, I promise. *leaves and goes back to Sarah* Hey you! Girl who yelled at me!

S: *looks up* oh, you, the idiot. What do you want with me?

C: Erik wants to see you.

S: I guess you took my advise. Now, how angry is he?

C: He's not angry at all? *looks at her confused* Why would he be angry?

S: I called you an idiot. If I know Erik then he wouldn't take it kindly.

C: He's not angry. He just wants to speak with you.

S: well, in that case, lead on!

C: *they enter Erik's house and walk into Erik's bedroom* Here she is.

E: I've heard that you call my angel an idiot... *growls a bit* Why do you call her this when she clearly is very bright?

S: *bows to Erik* a delight to finally meet you.

E: *nods politely* Now, I've heard that you call my angel an idiot... *growls a bit* Why do you call her this when she is clearly very bright?

S: because she was. She was the biggest idiot I have ever seen. *looks at Christine* I told you he wouldn't like it.

E: *scowls at her but tries to hold anger in for Christine* Why is she seen like that in your eyes?

S: she's fine now. She was an idiot for leaving you. Now, she's acting sensibly again.

E: I'm glad you see the error of your thinking... *glares at Sarah*

S: *grins* but, if she ever leaves again, I'll be back. You will get your happy ending if I have to die for it.

E: *smiles slightly* Why do you care so much about a monster's happy ending?

S: number one, you're not a monster. You're quite handsome. Number two, I hate to see a man die for being denied love.

C: Don't worry I'll make sure he's never alone. *smiles at Sarah*

S: *grins* great! Otherwise I'd have to come back and risk Erik's wrath by calling his Angel an 'idiot' again.

E: It's not wise to test me indeed... *glares*

S: *chuckles* I'll dare your anger any day if I need to. But, only if I need to. I do treasure my excellent health!

E: Don't tempt me... *smirks*

S: *smirks back* maybe I should go before he gets any ideas. Good day to you both.

C: *waves to her* Bye!

S: *waves* *leaves*

C: That's the weirdest woman I've ever met...

E: I'll agree with you there. So, different.

C: Anyway, let's not worry about her. Let's focus on us... *grins at Erik*

E: *smiles* us... I love the word, my love.

C: I like the word too. *kisses passionately against his lips*

E: *kisses her back passionately* I have another question for you.... You don't have to answer right now if you don't wish to.

C: Okay.. What is it?

E: will you marry me?

C: Yes... Yes I will... *says softly and excitedly*

E: *looks completely shocked but overjoyed* *kisses her to express his thanks*

C: *sings* My Angel of Music...

E: *sings back to her* My Angel of Music.
