Stalker or Lover?

Chapter 3; The Cell

I knew I wanted to see Erik. But I didn't know where they were holding him.

I knocked on a door. The man opened it. It was the same man who captured me.

"Awe Christine. How lovely to-." I need the information. I would do anything! I interrupted him. I kissed him. He pulled me away.

"What is this?" He asked me. I didn't know how to answer.

"It's called love." I lied. I needed to do what I had to do. Erin may be my 'stalker' but I knew he couldn't stay here forever.

I kissed the man again. I guided him into his room. We crashed into the walls multiple times. Soon enough I was in bed with him in a bra. I kissed his neck. Then I asked him a question.

"Where is Erik?"

"He-he's in the cells below." As soon as he fell asleep, I ran down the halls. I ran as fast as my legs would carry me. I ran below the mansion, and saw a guard. He stopped me. I lifted his helmet off, and he stared at me.

"The master sent me." I lied again.

"Oh." He said. He let me pass, and I ran. I didn't see him. I gave up. He was gone.

I started walking away, I have lost all hope. I heard a voice in the distance. It was soothing, saying my name. I knew who it was. I quickly turned around and saw Erik on the ground with blood dripping from his lip. I ran towards him, and sat on the ground. The light was dim, so it was hard to see him.

"Erik." I said. I ripped my dress, and placed it on his lip. My dress soaked the blood.

"Erik, what happened?"

"It's nothing." He denied it. I couldn't ignore it. I put my hand on his chin. I guided it up towards my face. He gazed into my eyes.

"Erik, we're gonna get out of here."

"How?" He asked.

He sounded like all of his hope has been stripped from him.

"What happened to my Phantom? My angel of music?"

"He's gone." He sighed. I sat back.

"Erik, what are you not telling me?"

"He's dangerous." He put his hands on my shoulders. "You must leave. Don't worry about me!"

"No!" I shouted. "I'm not leaving you!" I calmed myself down. "He hurt you."

"I'll be alright." He told me.

I heard footsteps. They grew closer. "Erik!" I whispered.

"Go!" I ran, just as he instructed. I didn't know what was happening, but I knew it was bad. I heard guards hitting something. I knew it was Erik. What has he gotten himself into?

The hitting stopped. The guards trailed away with Erik in their hands. I wanted to run, but something was preventing me. It was the man in the mask.

"Christine." I quickly turned around. I hate that I couldn't see his face. I ran away. He tried to run after me, but I was too fast. I ran all around the mansion looking for Erik. I couldn't fine him anywhere. I went back to my room, and pouted.

"Christine." A voice said. It felt like it was behind me. I turned around and I saw no one. I looked around. I looked behind the couch, and I saw him. There. He was on the ground covered in blood. I grabbed his arms and helped him up.

"Come on Erik. Tell me! What is it?"

"I found an escape path." He said. I couldn't believe it! We were actually going to escape!

He told me the plan. "Meet me here." He instructed. I nodded my head. "We'll go tonight."
