Phantom one shots (musical version)

Run away with me

"And now i present. The luscious, the dazzling, the beautiful ESME"
I watched as she stepped on stage. The prisoner of the king. Or...his wife as some called her. The queen was dazzling in every way shape and form and i was deeply in love with her.

I catched her eyes as she winked and smiled at me. I smiled back and pulled my hood back. My masked face revealed to all around me but i didn't care. She finished her song and dance and glanced at me again. Flicking her head towards a ginnel and then dissapeared back stage. I smirked and covered my face again. I walked round the corner to the ginnel and leant against a wall.

"Im glad you caught my hint". I turned to see Esme with a cloak on.

"Esme. Lovely as always" I grabbed her by her waist and placed my lips to hers.

"I didnt think you'd come" Esme stated as she hugged me close.

"How could i resist a chance to see you?" 

"My Erik" she smiled as she cuddled into me more.

"I wish i could say the same to you but you are not mine. You are HIS" i spoke speaking of her husband.

"I wish it didn't have to be this way Erik but you know what my father would of done had i refused" i nodded.

"I understand...seriously i do. I just wish we could be together"

"I do to"

For months we continued to meet in silence. Anytime we could i would walk to the ginnel where we always meet and we would spend hours talking. Her husband never asked where she went. Nor did he care. For she meant nothing to him other than the fact she was there to produce him a healthy heir. However that didnt go to plan as she refused to consimate the marriage until a year to the day they were married. Her reason? No one knows. I sat with Esme by myside as she fumbled with my fingers.

"Ive got a question"

"Yes my love"

"Why are you waiting a year until you consumate your marriage?"

"Because it gives me time to save up!"

"Save up what?"

"Money. Im leaving Erik. At Dusk i will be gone. I want you to come with me. Ive saved up enough for us both" Esme begged.

"I'll follow you where ever my love you know that!"

"Thank you Erik"

And together they ran. They left their small country and the queen was never seen again. The king remarried shortly after and had three healthy heirs to a woman he actually cared for. What about Erik and Esme you ask? Well they lived happily ever after as it would be told in a fairytale. They had seven children, unable to keep
Their hands off each other was the cause of these seven beautiful children. Each born with a small scar on the left of their face. They loved them all none the less. Forever and always.
