In The End

Nuisances

Christine's POV

When Meg got done, Erik was surprisingly quiet.  I thought he wasn't going to say anything about Raoul but he did.

"Where is he?" He asks

"Madam Giry tied him up with tape this time.  He isn't going anywhere." I tell him. Before he could say anything else Aiden starts crying, I can tell he's going to be a difficult baby. I pick him up and calm him down.  I have my back to Erik so I don't see him go out the door.  When I get Aiden back to sleep, I turn around to see Erik is gone. When I go out to find him I hear my name screamed telling me to get to Aiden and Everleigh. I take off getting back to the office. I find them unharmed and when I go to pick them up I feel a barrel of a gun on my back. I try to turn to see who it is but I hear.

"Don't Chrissy, I don't want to hurt you."

I start crying because it's my best friend who is going to kill me.

"Meg please don't, I can't leave them again!" I cry. She just pushes it further into my back.

"SHUT UP CHRISTINE!!!!" She screams. 

"You took the man I love away, Chrissy. I just wanted him to see me.  Raoul sees me like he never did and now we're going to have a family. You can't stop this Christine."

"Wishing you were somehow here again,
Wishing you were somehow near."  I sing.

"Don't start Christine. Please this is already hard enough. It's your voice that got us into this mess!" She shouts at me. Everleigh is crying and I just want to pick her up and hold her, stop her from crying.

"It's ok baby mommy's right here, don't cry, it'll all be ok." I tell her.

"Shut her up!!" Meg says letting go of my arm. I run to her picking her up. Meg looks disgusted. She stops crying and I set her back down when Meg isn't looking. I grab the paper weight off the desk silently. I reach up to hit her head but I can't do it. I love my best friend. She's always been there for me. I lower the paper weight, she's still not looking at me. She's staring out the window. I kick her knees, she goes down, the gun flies out of her hands. I quickly grab it and point it at her. She looks terrified.

"Next time Meg, do not mess with my children!" I shout at her hitting her with the butt of the gun, knocking her out. I grab the tape out of the drawer and tie her to the chair. I look out the window to see Erik walking back towards the office dragging a unconscious Raoul with Madam  Giry over his shoulder. I can see Gustave behind Erin holding his left arm. When the get back to the office Erik carefully sets Madam Giry down in the recliner and drops Raoul to the ground with a thud. I run to hug both of my boys but Gustave crys out.

"What is it!? Did I hurt you?" I ask

"No mother, you didn't, he just grabbed me and broke my arm. I'll never be able to play quite as well again." He says through gritted teeth. I gasp, then turn around to Raoul's unconscious body and start kicking him. He wakes up when I do so.

"DON'T...YOU...EVER....TOUCH...MY..BABIES..AGAIN!!!!" I scream at him between kicks. I give one final kick in a place that no man should be kicked. He curls up in a ball groaning.

"AND THAT'S FOR TURNING MY BEST FRIEND AGAINST ME AND GETTING HER PREGNANT!!!!" I scream at him when I turn around to my angels. They both look like they feel Raoul's pain.  They also look shocked.  I also find Madam Giry awake.

"My Meg is pregnant!?" She asks. I nod telling her that she told me. She faints and falls back into the chair.
