Chapter 4

After people started to settle down, the diva Carlotta left. Andre and Firmin were babling about something you couldnt understand, then Mademe Giry spoke

"Ms.Daae can sing it." The rest you couldn't really understand. Christine started to sing, she was better then you. The show started not long after rehersules. Christine was the best of the best. When the show was finished you snuck out to get some flowers. The streets were pretty bare so you ran to the flower store before it closed. You ran as fast as you could. You made it to the store, it was 30 mintuse tell closing

"What can do for you mademoiselle?" The clerk asked you.

"Do you have a bouquet of roses?" You ask. The man went into the back and pulled out a bouquet of blood red roses. You bought them and started running again. Christine was gone when you returned. You went over to Meg and asked her.

"Meg, have you seen Christine?" You ask.

"No, but maybe mom knows." Meg walked out of the room. You herd singing in the Prima Donna room. You wiggled the door handle, but it was locked. You grabbed the keys and got in, the mirror was wide open. You stepped in making sure you didn't make a sound. You tripped over your foot and fell down the stairs. You f/c dress ripped in several places and your hands were scuffed up. You saw a shape in the shadows get closer to you.

"Who may you be?" A man with a mask asked.

"I'm y/n who are you?" You look at the man.

"I'm Erik also known as the opera ghost or the phantom." The man said.

"You were the one who dropped the backdrop on Carlotta." You stepped backward.

"Yes, now may I ask why you are here mademoiselle?" Erik stood and looked at your hands.

"I'm just wondering where Christine is." You look up the man standing before you.

"Follow me." You followed Erik into a fairly sized area. You never had been on a boat before so you were a little figity. You saw Christine sleeping like a baby in a swan bed.

"Now you know where she is, you can now leave."

"Oh no, I'm not leaving at this moment mister." You said sternly, but in a childish way.

"Your not from around here are you?" Erik smirked.

"No, I'm from England." You look at the place you were in.

"Mademe Giry told the dancers, including myself to not come down here, I was wondering why."

"Then why did you disobey the woman who took you in?" Erik glared.

"What, you know about how I ran away and came here." You look at him in annoyance.

"Perhaps." His voice was stern but soothing.

"Did you or did you not?" You raised your voice.

"Indeed I knew." Erik finally said. Christine woke up to Erik and you talking.

"Is everything alright?" Christine walked up to you and Erik.

"Yes. Christine you were perfect." You hugged the curly haired girl in front of you.

"Thank you." Christine smiled. Erik looked at both you and Christine in approval.

"I have a bouquet of roses up stairs, come." You smile. Christine follows you so does Erik, he had to take you to back.

"We will return." You look at Erik. Erik nodded in approval and left you and Christine alone to walk up the stairs. You look down at your hand, then Christine looked over.

"Are you okay?" Christine held your hands.

"I'm fine." You look down at your hand.

"May I ask what happened?" Christine looked at you with round brown eyes.

"Well I was coming down to find you, and I tripped over my foot, and it tore my favrotie dress." You pouted.

"Mademe Giry has something to help." Christine started running, you ran with the girl.
