Mr. Erik Destler (A Phantom Of The Opera Phanphic)

Chapter 16

Hi!! A present from me to you for not updating! Remember, I own nothing!

Erik

I knew she was going to come see me. I knew it. Such a pleasant surprise. Elyza stared up at me with her large, green eyes. Her cheeks were burning bright red. She was silent. "Ms. Reagan.... why are you here?" She took a deep breath and said. "IwantedtoseeyoubecauseIwantedtotalkaboutmygradeandbecausveIwantedtoseeyouandtalkaboutwhathappenedbetweenus..." I blinked a few times, trying to understand what she said. "Yes... I've also wanted to discuss your grade. A 'C+'." I decided to ignore the last two claims. "W-What can I do to get an 'A', at least?" "Well... you need to hand in your homework." All the colour left her already pale skin, she looked as white as a sheet. "What is it, what's wrong?" Elyza shook her head rapidly. "N-nothing, sir!" "I don't like the way you said that. You're trembling, you're quite excited. You're lying!" She was silent. I knew it. "Why haven't you been turning in your homework, Elyza?" She bit her lip before saying, "C-Christine, sir. Sh-she takes it... I promise you I've done every assignment given..." My blood boiled in my veins. I despised how people were so hateful... "I-I see. Excuse me for a moment." She nodded and stared down at her shoes. I stood from my stool, walked over to my desk, and phoned the main office. "Yes, Mrs. Reubins, this is Erik Destler from the artroom. Please find Christine Daaé and send her to room 410. Immediately." I hung up and walked back to Elyza. She was shaking. "No... Please. It's fine! I can do it over." I sighed and said gently, "Elyza... that is simply unfair. Did she threaten you? Is she making you say this?" A pause. "I can do it over. Really it's--."

Christine

I walked through the door feeling very irritable. What now? Elyza and Mr. Destler were there. Elyza was trembling. Good. Mr. Destler looked angry. Bad. "Ms. Daaé....have you been stealing and taking credit for Miss Reagan's homework?" I shot the dark - haired girl a glare. She was going to get it when we got out of here. I was going to make her suffer. "You told?! When I get my hands on you..." I stormed over to her and the masked man cut in, "You will do nothing of the sort! I'm afraid I'm going to have to give you detention. For a month. I'm going to call your parents, you're going to make up all the homework that you took credit for, and you shall apologise to Elyza right now; and if I find you have laid a finger on her, you'll be in more trouble than there are words for. "

No-one

Christine glared murderous glares at both of them and reluctantly, she apologised to Elyza before storming out of the room. She was going to take her anger out on Elyza if it was the last thing she did.
