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

Is This A Dream Or Is It Real?

Victor's POV

"Hello?" I opened my eyes and noticed all of my surroundings were...white?

I didn't know where I am and I didn't what will do to get out of here. Earlier, my heart was thumping as my shirt and hands were stained...with Maria's blood. The horrible thought made me cringed.

But now...I'm standing on a beach with white sand and palm trees but no one was in site except for a beach house and the surrounding rock formations.

I look on what I was wearing, I suspected to be in my bloody tuxedo...but it wasn't. I was wearing white clothes and was barefoot, but I did note feel any sand on my feet...even if I was standing on it.

I decided to walk a bit to each beach house before I began to hear a violin play expertly. Someone must be playing the radio...I thought as I walked closer and closer.

I looked by my surroundings and tried to familiarize myself to how astonishing of the white sand, the relaxing crash of the waves and swaying of palm leaves above.

I was now in front of the door and suddenly the music stopped, making me stopped in my tracks.

Suddenly, "Is that you, Victor Destler?" A man's voice behind the door. He had that accent that seemed to be quite familiar.

"Uhm...Yes, it is me, Monsieur." I stuttered. I was absolutely confused to the man behind the door knew him. I didn't know this place, I don't know whose house belongs to and I don't even know the man behind the door!

"Come, come. Open the door and come in." He said with gladness. Not to be rude and quite curious, I opened the door and went inside.

I then gaped at the man, whose voice belong to earlier, and was sitting on the couch.

I only knew him in Maria's portraits and stories about the man he loved too much, his Father, Anthony Day.

He was in a normal stature, his deep brown eyes, his gentle and welcoming smile was very familiar to Maria's.

Wait, isn't Maria's father already dead?...Wait, if he's dead...I must be hallucinating and this all must be a dream caused by too much drama because of earlier...

"You are not hallucinating..." I only became silent...before remembering one dream with Maria that I told her she was dreaming. I then seated to the nearest chair which was in front of Maria's father.

"So...You are Victor Destler. The man that I've heard from my daughter when she visits my grave. She has told a lot about you." I looked at him and he was smiling.

I felt quite nervous, anticipated and scared that I finally saw Maria's father....but I felt a bit relaxed because of his warm appearance.

"I've also heard that both of you have been dating..." Oh God...

"Don't worry. That is fine with me. From all the stories, I think that I accept you for my daughter...but I do not know of her future..." Future??...Wait, did he just said that he accepted me. What is this dream??
