I must have done something wrong. He says he has a lot on his mind, but what if getting rid of me is one of them? Why does he keep me around? I need to know! There must be some hidden reason.

Oh, it must be because I wanted him to go with me to the masquerade. He must have noticed my intention and got uncomfortable.

How could I be such a git?! Of course he doesn't like me like that.

But I wish he did.

...No, I don't like him that way. He's secretive, cold, commanding, alluring...

Oh no. It appears I do like him. Maybe a lot more than I thought.

He probably likes me too, at least a little bit. He spends time with me and treats me differently than everyone else.

Does he still like Christine? He should surely be over it now that she's with Raoul...but maybe he isn't.

Christine has made it pretty clear that she is afraid of Erik, but I'm not. He shouldn't be chasing after her!

What am I thinking?! Erik gets to make his own decisions, but...I don't want to see his heart break again like I saw on the roof.

I like him. I can see it now.

I definitely don't want him to get hurt by Christine again, so...

I will do everything I can to win him over.
