My Savior (Complete)

Rehearsal

Christine's POV
Erik told me that I would start in the chorus then hopefully be the Prima donna in later operas. I was just thankful that I was able to work and enjoy my time here. I quickly became friends with one of the ballet girls named Meg Giry. She was the daughter of the stage manager Madam Giry. Erik spent most of his time writing new operas and doing paperwork for the opera house. He took his job and work very seriously which I liked in a way. The other day I was given a dressing room with Meg and Meg showed me the chapel in the opera house. I placed a candle there and a picture of my father. I go there everyday after rehearsal to talk to him.
Today we were rehearsing Hannibal. Carlotta the Prima Donna for five seasons got upset. When the managers calmed her down she started singing her solo Think Of Me.
I was standing next to Meg as Carlotta was singing. Then I heard the sound of a rope snap and saw the backdrop fall on Carlotta. I look up at the rafters and see what looks like a man dressed in all black. Everyone tried to help Carlotta up and she stormed off quickly saying she is leaving the Opera House.
"Monsieur Destler do we have an understudy for Carlotta?"
"No but Ms. Daae could sing it. She has a beautiful voice."
"Ms. Daae will you sing for us."
I nodded and stepped forward.
"Think of me
think of me fondly,
when we've said goodbye.
Remember me
once in a while
please promise me
you'll try.
When you find
that, once
again, you long
to take your heart back
and be free
if you
ever find
a moment,
spare a thought
for me"

Before I could think I was the new Prima Donna of the Paris Opera House. As I stood on stage I looked up to Erik who was sitting in box five.

"We never said
our love
was evergreen,
or as unchanging
as the sea
but if
you can still
remember
stop and think
of me
Think of all the things
we've shared and seen
don't think about the things
which might have been
Think of me,
think of me waking,
silent and
resigned.
Imagine me,
trying too hard
to put you
from my mind.
Recall those days
look back
on all those times,
think of the things
we'll never do
there will
never be
a day, when
I won't think
of you
We never said
our love
was evergreen,
or as unchanging
as the sea
but please
promise me,
that sometimes
you will think
of me!"
As everyone applauded I looked at Erik who had the biggest smile on his face. As me and the rest of the cast finished the show I made my way back to my new dressing room. Since Carlotta left I get the new Prima Donna dressing room. It has a big desk and a long mirror. It was beautiful there.
"Christine."
"Hello?"
"Christine."
"Who is it?"
"I am the angel your father sent to you. He is very proud of your performance tonight."
"Angel where are you? Come to me strange Angel."
"Look at your face in the mirror I am there inside. I am your angel of music come to me angle of music."
"Christine who is that in there?"
"I am your angel of music come to me angel of music."
I felt like I was in a trance I took his hand and he lead me through the mirror and through the tunnels of the opera house.
