Think of me.

"What we going to do?" Mr. Grace asked

"We're going to have to just bite the bullet and refund everyone" Mr. Jackson said

"Your talking about refunding a full house!" Mr. Grace said

"And what about this Opera Ghost?" Mr. Grace asked

"What other option do we have?! Our star walked out on us!" Mr. Jackson said

"William Solace can sing for you" Reyna said

I started to panic slightly internally.
What was she thinking? Did she really believe I was good enough to play one of the main people?

"The chorus boy? Don't mock us" Mr. Grace said

I sunk back towards the back of the stage

"I'm not mocking you. He has a great teacher, all you have to do is listen to him sing"

"Who's you teacher boy?" Mr. Jackson asked

I froze then slowly walked up to them

"I haven't gotten his name" I said

"I promise you. He has great talent and has been well taught." Reyna said

Mr. Jackson then gestured me forward

I slowly walked to the center of the stage

"No need to be shy" Mr. Jackson said

"If this gos south, it's your fault" Mr. Grace said

"Sometimes you need to take a risk" Mr. Jackson said

"From the beginning then" the conductor said

I took a deep shaking breath my nerves going crazy as me heart pounded in my chest.

"Think of me, think of me fondly
When we've said goodbye" I sang and looked over at Reyna who smiled and nodded for me to continue. That lifted my spirits and got rid of my nerves. I continued to sing and next thing I knew I was singing in front of a full house

Remember me, once in a while
Please promise me you'll try
When you find that once again you long
To take your heart back and be free
If you ever find a moment
Spare a thought for me

We never said our love was evergreen
Or as unchanging as the sea
But if you can still remember
Stop and think of me
Think of all the things
We've shared and seen
Don't think about the way
Things might have been

Think of me, think of me waking
Silent and resigned
Imagine me trying too hard
To put you from my mind
Recall those days
Look back on all those times
Think of the things we'll never do
There will never be a day
When I won't think of you

Drew's Point

I looked down at the man singing on the stage and couldn't believe my eyes

"Can it be, can it be William?"
I sang before standing up and clapping

"Bravo!" I yelled I then walked out of box 4.
"Long ago, it seems so long ago
How young and innocent we were
He may not remember me
But I remember him" I sang as I went to search for which room was his so that I could see him after.

Will's Point

"Flowers fade, the fruits of summer fade
They have their season so do we
But please promise me that sometimes
You will think
oooooooof meeeeee!"

Everyone cheered as I finished they then stood up and began to throw roses on to the stage

I put a arm in front of me and bowed while looking to the side and seeing Reyna and Lu Ellen smiling at me. I smiled back then stood up.

After the opera I went and immediately lit a candle for my mother. I sent a silent prayer to the gods thanking them.

I sat on the floor in silence for a moment before I heard a man call my name I smiled and almost called back to him before I heard Lu Ellen call my name and walk up to me.

"Where in the world have you been hiding" She sang as she sat down next to me

"Really, you were perfect I only wish I knew your secret Who is your great tutor" she sang placing a friendly hand over mine

Lu When Reyna brought me here. I Would I come here to light a candle for my mother and I would hear a voice" I said with a smile. I then grabbed her hand in my and took a Dee sigh

"When my mother was dying she told me that my father would send me an Angel to protect me, that he would send me an angel of music"

"Will? Do you believe that your father sent you a Angel to tutored you?" Lu Ellen asked

"I do" I said

"Mother once spoke of an angel I used to dream he'd appear Now as I sing, I can sense him And I know he's here" I sang as I let go of her hand and stood up

"Here in this room he calls me softly Somewhere inside hiding Somehow I know he's always with me He, the unseen genius" I sang with a smile

"William, you must have been dreaming Stories like this can't come true William, you are talking in riddles And it's not like you" Lu Ellen sang as she stood up aswell and we walked out of the room

"Angle of Music Guide and guardian Grant to me your glory" I sang as we walked

"Who is this angel?" Lu Ellen sang

"Angle of Music Hide no longer. Secret and strange angel" We sang together

"He's with me, even now" I sang

"Your face, William, is red" Lu Ellen sang

"What? No it isn't" I said covering my face with my hands

"Your blushing" Lu Ellen teased

"So, what does your angel look like?" She asked

"I-I don't actually know" I admitted

"And yet you like him?" Lu Ellen asked

"There's more to a person then their looks." I said

"I suppose your right"

"There's just something about him. And he's voice, Gods I could listen to him all day" I said

"Ok, we should go you back to your room" Lu Ellen said with a laugh. As she took my hand
