My Knight In Shining Armor With A Mask (Phantom Of The Opera Fanfic)

Forgive Me and Il Muto

Maria's Dream

I woke up realizing I was in my room and not at Erik's lair. I wanted to apologize for what I did but what if he won't accept it and he'll cancel our rehearsals forever and maybe he'll dissappear never coming back.

Just the mere thought of it made me cry "Oh Angel...please don't leave me..." I say now crying as I covered my face with my hands and my knees at my chest - "Christine...Do not cry..." His once sweet velvet voice was now filled with pity.

I searched around the room and looked at the mirror but he was nowhere to be seen. I walked to the mirror and opened it but - it won't budge! I keep opening it but I think someone was holding it and that person was - Erik!

I keep opening it but it was hopeless. I gave up and slide my back on the mirror sobbing. I stopped once I reached the floor my knees at my chest and crying out his name.

I cried for a few minutes but stopped when I realized I hurt him so much by breaking his trust and decided I'll feel the pain by - cutting myself.

I grabbed my small knife - my small knife is used sometimes for emegencies or opening up my letters - but now I decided to cut my hand instead.

I grabbed the knife, I took a deep breath and swiftfully cut my palm. The pain was excruciating but it was worth it. I let my blood from the cut drop on the floor.

Suddenly, A dark figure grabbed my wrist roughly - knowing it was Erik and knowing he's still here to check on me if I'm okay - but now it was different. His eyes showing rage and he yelled "What the hell is wrong with you, Christine!?" As he yelled at me he took a cloth that was sitting on my vanity, he began to wipe the blood which made me cringed.

"See Christine...You're hurt" He say after he successfully wiped off the blood and wrapped around like a bandage.

"I deserved it anyway..." He looked at me shocked. "Christine-" "Don't Erik...I took off your mask and I disobeyed you. I'm so sorry. Please forgive me" I say full of regret and dropped on knees on the floor while grabbing his hand.

He didn't say anything - I know he can't forgive me which made me cry even more as I kept repeating "Please". He suddenly lifted me up and cupped my face with his glove - covered hands and wipe them away while looking at me and a sad smile formed on his lips.

Our faces were so close that we were about to kiss. As I close my eyes - Oh my God! I'm in love with my maestro!- I was about to kiss him when a knock on the door interrupted us.

I opened my eyes and he was gone but the knock on the door didn't. I opened it was Madame Giry and behind her Meg in her Il Muto costume.

"Christine...I'm sorry...but Carlotta got the lead in Il Muto. I'm sorry" Madame Giry say. Meg handed me the Pageboy's costume she had a sad smile on her face.

I nodded and closed the door now looking at the costume. This is what I get for disobeying him...and I'll gladly accept it.

After putting the costume on, I looked to my full - length mirror and whispered "Let the Opera begin"...

Maria's POV

I suddenly woke up by my alarm clock ringing 8 o'clock. Another day of rehearsals...but another day with Victor I thought.

Suddenly, all the actions that we did yesterday came back to my mind. I blushed so hard realizing I was about to have sex with him if that ringtone didn't came. I slapped my face numerous times  get that dirty thought away but it won't go away.

I hopelessly sighed knowing it won't go away I grabbed my purse before dressing in a nice frilly dress and went to the Opera House...
