One hell of an angel... (a Kuroshitsuji fanfiction)

An angel... crying

The twins were currently practicing the last dance, which concluded and symbolizes the ending. Westley, Fiona were watching their daughters with pride. The parents were seated at the audience seat.

"And- one,two,three. One, two three, one two three, turn! and- change!" Drew said while clapping proffesionally into the beat.

Skirts and dresses were twirling, the stage was dimly-lit, making it look more like an actual performance. The twins were quite good in the field of dancing and acting, for drew paid them extra teachings.

"Who do you think Christine is?"

"I heard she's an amazing actress."

"Rumour has it that it would be a princess who would portray it."

"I wonder who she really is?"

Soft murmurs were echoing through the stage, but Drew paid them no mind, for he knew that all would be revealed sooner or later.

"One, two, three, spin, spin, spin stop!" Drew said, before continuing, "Now, I need you all to freeze, becuase here's the part where christine and the phantom would sing and dance together."

"But at this point, I need you to rest. The Christine would arrive later. Now, run along, tomorrows a big day." Drew said. The stage and the audience's seat were lit into bright light, showing everything.

The other kids burst into their parent's welcoming arms, and told stories about their experiences.

"Mom! Dad! did we do well? Are we pretty?" Eve and Esme said, jumping up and down. Westley smiled at them, while Fiona bombarded them with kisses and sweet nothings.

The four went home, while Angelene waited for them to fall asleep, and went on her way to practice and finalize.

Angelene spinned and danced gracefully. She glided, spun, twirled and gently moved. Dimly lit blurs were all Angelene saw.

Spinning around, she brought her arms her chest, after that she skipped gracefully with her hands gracefully brought into a ballerina's cirle, while raising her left leg behind her back.

After that she bowed before smiling at a stunned Drew.

Drew dramatically wiped a tear from his eye before hugging his student.

"You did well." drew complimented, when he was about to pull away, his eyes widened when sobs escaped Angelene's lips.

"What's wrong?"

Angelene said nothing but sobbed.

Drew was panicked, "W-well. I-uh. Y-you should be happy- I-I'm happy I have a student like you." Drew said, rubbing her back.

"If my mom were to see me here-"

Angelene looked up at him, her eyes overflowing with sadness, "-she'd hug me and say she's proud of me."

Drew's eyes softened. Sighing he spoke, "I'm sure that wherever they are, they are and always be proud of you."

"That's the unfair part I guess." Angelene said.

"What's that?"

"I guess that they'll only be watching, like a shadow watching it's owner. Painful trances." Angelene voice trailed off.

At that Drew silenced.

"..Having a father look at his daughter with such hatred, watching a mother screamed for her daughter's life whilst all she did was cry and say stop."

Angelene stared at her hands. "-I couldn't bring myself to hate him. It's amazing how someone can break your heart, and you'll still love him or them with all the pieces you have left." Angelene pulled away, and sat shakily on the stage.

Drew sighed and sat beside her. "I know I have no right to say this. But, can't you atleast forget all of this tomorrow, do it for yourself."

"People will forget what you said-"

Drew opened his mouth to say something, but Angelene continued on speaking, as if she were in a trance.

"-People will forget what you did."

Drew came closer, but as soon as Angelene spoke, he stopped.

"-but never once, will people forget how you made them feel." Angelene said hugging her knees to her chest.

Drew was silent.

"-But I'm happy." Angelene said looking back at Drew.

Drew looked at her in question. He lost all the thought that he had to say. He was speechless.

Speechless.

"You will never know true happiness until you have truly loved."

Drew drew in a short breath.

Hugging her knees closer, Angelene whispered, "But you will never understand what pain really is, until you have lost it."

Taken aback, Drew tried his best not to make Angelene realize that he heard what she said. With some kind of grace, a sudden thought crossed his mind.

Drew smiled in triumph. "But, if your mom and dad was here. For example, I was your parents. Close your eyes and say something to them."

Angelene raised a confused eyebrow, searching Drew's eyes, she saw nothing but determination and sincerity.

Few minutes of silence passed, as Drew was contemplated whether he'd speak or not, Angelene had closed her eyes, finally saying, "Mom, dad? In your absence, my heart has grown stronger. But-"

Angelene was sobbing now, continuing she gasped out, "b-but.."

Drew was tempted to take her in his arms. But he did nothing.

"-I-In your presence, I find happiness. I love you both. Gosh! I love you both so much and it will stay that way. I love you. I love you. I love you. I-"

Remembering something, Angelene steadied herself, her eyes still closed, she smiled. "Mommy? Please. D-don't tire of my I love yous."

"I-i only tell I love you everyday for fear that tomorrow isn't another. I-i just-"

Angelene shook her head, sighing and rubbing her eyes. "- miss you both so much."

Angelene opened her eyes when she felt someone hugging her. Drew.

When the two pulled away, Drew said, his voice trembling, "I-i have an extra room here. If you don't want your secret to be revealed until tomorrow, might as well sleep here. I'll have guards guard the front door or you room. In the mean time, relax and sleep."

Angelene sniffed smiled and nodded. Her nose and eyes were red from her crying, yet she still looked like the happy girl who acts like summer, yet suffers the life of eternal winter.

Drew stood up, and cleared his throat. "Well no, my dear Christine, it's an honor and a pleasure to talking with you, but I'm afraid you have to rest." Drew held her right hand gently, kissing it.

Angelene bowed playfully as she took the keys and the map from Drew's hands.

She went on her way, but as she walked, Drew was amazed that a girl like her, could still smile- despite her past haunting her, and her tears- trailing behind those innocent eyes.
