I Hear Your Fears- POTO Fanfiction

The Rehearsal[Revised and Edited]

Hello everyone, I decided to add something from the actual musical. Which is the rehearsal scene for Don Juan. If you want to watch it, then go look it up on Youtube because I'm lazy and don't want to put it up. I might put it up later but anyways enjoy the chapter. I don't own Phantom of the Opera, or it's character and plot.

_______________________________________________________________________________________

It's been over a month since the masquerade. And the opera house is in chaos. Erik has been sending more letters, telling the managers how to change or alter the way the opera is being portrayed. Mia is pissed that I am the lead, and everyone else is just trying to do their best. If Erik was a perfectionist, at any given point in his life, this was it. Right now, I in my room, practicing the role of Aminita. The melodies in my mind, echoing the music in my head, as I sang silently. Then, the door opened, and Valerie, Christine, Meg, and Genevieve walked in. Each of them exhausted as the next.

"This new opera is our hardest yet," Meg groaned as she sat down on a chair.

"If you girls want, I can help you with it," I suggested.

"That would be nice, but I don't know how we're gonna get somewhere where we can practice," Valerie said, as she sat next to me.

"And could you tell him to cool it please," she whispered in my ear, I looked at her like do you think that would work, she sighed and flopped down on my bed, cause I was sitting on it.

"I can get you guys some extra practice time, but you have to you exactly as I say," I explained.

"Meet me here at midnight, and then we'll go to the stage," they nodded, and hopefully I could help them with the routine.

The girls knocked on the door, and I answered, just putting on my pointe shoes.

"Since when did you have these?" Christine asked, looking at my shoes and dress.

"I managed to get one from Madame Giry," I said, as I got up, and grabbed a spare candle.

"Did Raoul let you come?" I asked Christine, she shook her head.

"He said I needed rest, but I need practice more, so I managed to sneak out without him noticing," I smiled, that lousy Vicomte shouldn't take control of his fiancee, she's a person not an object at his disposal. I lit the candle, opened the door, check to see if anyone was out there, finding no one. I motioned for the girls to follow me. We walked silently towards the stage, I knew that some parts of the set were still wet, but they were moved so that they could dry. I motioned for the girls to take center-stage, as I grabbed a music stand from the orchestra pit, and set the music down.

"Ok, are you girls ready?" They nodded, and the teaching began. We went through the ballet, bit by bit, sometimes one of the girls was having trouble, so I helped them one on one. After a few hours, they were starting to get the hang of it. I told them that we could pick this up tomorrow, and we walked back. But I knew that Erik was watching us, even during rehearsals.

________________________________The Next Day_____________________________________

I walked into the chorus room, I heard from Madame Giry, that the girls are helping the other dancers in the corps de ballet, taking them through the steps of the ballet, like I did last night. But now I had to rehearse with the chorus, and that includes Mia and Matthew. I sit down in front, near the piano that was always in this room for practice. We started out singing the opening number, then working with some of the other songs, but now we are at a phrase that Matthew just can't get. He misses it for the tenth time, and by now everyone is getting loopy at this point.
