Christine, That's all I ask of you

Chapter 20: Christine's (Un)Expected Wish

Erik's dreams were very dark and frightening when he couldn't sleep in Christine's loving arms. He even believed that his painful wound will heal much slower if she didn't hug him more. In the morning she looked at him. ,,Oh , Erik... How sad you look..." she felt pity. ,, I'm sorry I didn't want to hold you. I'm just worried. You are injured and brittle now. I know I should obey you. I'm your wife" she said. Erik frowned a bit. ,,But, Christine...Women... aren't a property" he said. He didn't like that women were treated being less than men. They were discriminated just like Erik himself. ,,I know that we aren't" Christine answered. ,,But a lot of men thinks we are. I am so happy that you understand that it's not true" she caressed her husband's cheek. She leaned to his ear to whisper. ,, Right when you are healthy....We will start a whole new life in this house" Erik smiled at her and nodded. ,,Now you relax!" Christine ordered. Erik was stubborn and she was afraid that otherwise he'd try to avoid eating and sleeping for writing music again. It wasn't healthy at all. Also when he was injured he had to be calmer.
Erik felt embarrassed when Christine forced him to eat. But he liked when she came to kiss him just to cheer him up. He
was healing slowly but surely. His chest didn't need to be in bandages anymore and Christine held him in sleep again. But very carefully not to harm him. He was beginning to be happy again. He thought about becoming a professional composer. No one would have to see him and Christine would be taking his sheets to the opera. No one would know about his identity and past. No one knew his name anyways. Christine didn't think about work at all. She dreamed about her and Erik having children. She wished to have a little musician.
,,Erik?" she said in the evening when Erik was finally fully healthy. Erik looked up at her from his book. ,,Yes, dearest?" ,,What would you say if I tell you that I would like to have children?" she asked him with a smile. Erik got shocked a bit but tried to smile. ,,Oh...Y-yes...I mean... amazing idea..." Christine frowned. ,,Are you afraid of parenting?" ,,No...But what if our child would have a face deformity like me?" Erik worried. ,, I'll love them even more. My children must know they are amazing" Christine answered happily. Her husband was worried but he actually wished to have children too. What an idea...

So, here we go! :)))) Christine finally told Erik that she'd like to have children. And he also finally healed. What a good news! This chapter was expected from you , some of you even already read some pieces I send you. I hope you'll still like the story because don't forget, this is my first Wattpad book. And I'll always love it the most :)))
