Say you'll share with me one love , one lifetime

Final lair

Erik's POV

' you are not alone ! '  Christine sang as she softly placed her hands on my shoulder and turned me around to face her . She cupped her hands on my face and pulled me towards her .

She kissed me .. her kiss were so soft and tender . That was my first kiss ever , not even my mother had kissed me . She pulled away to look at me in the eyes . Emotions running through me and I could not decide what to do or what to feel , I just look at her with disbelief as she pulled me again for another kiss . Her left hand rised up to my scarred face as she pulled me in even closer . I reached up my hand to hers and touched them together . I cannot believe this .. I place my hands on her shoulder and slowly push her away . I look into her eyes . Those eyes asking me to stop this , asking me to let her go .

I could not do this to her . I have to let her go , she deserves freedom . God , what have I done ? My only chance at love and I treated her this way . I took a candle and cut the rope from Raoul's neck .

I pulled Raoul in his collar

" Take her . Forget me, forget all of this . " I asked them to go
" Go now don't let them find you . Take the boat, leave me here . Go now, don't wait! "
The two of them ran away to the boat as quickly as they can . Raoul held back and looks like he was trying to kill me but Christine pulled him telling him not to and to just leave .

" Go now! Go now and leave me! " I shouted . And then I fell down to my knee . My heart felt like it's been shattered into a million pieces . My Christine ... I touched my lips and remember how her lips tasted like . As I was crying and thinking how am I going to live without my angel , my music box is being played . I went towards it and sing along with it .

" Masquerade.. Paper faces on parade . Masquerade , hide your face so the world ... will never find you . " I let the tears in my eyes fell . This music box is the only thing I have left , my only companion left . She's gone now ...
Then I heard footsteps . I turn behind and Christine was standing there . I looked at her thinking she may be wanted to stay and be with me but as I was about to say something she took out the ring I gave her . I couldn't believe this , I'm letting go my only light , my only love . She belongs to another now .  Probably it's for the best , I love her too much to condemn her with this fate . The fate that she has to live with this cursed face . I know that I don't deserve her but I could still surrender my heart to her . I looked into her eyes

" Christine .. " I shook my head to push away all the thoughts that she belong to another , as I look deeper into those hazel brown eyes . " I love you . " then I touched her hand . We both cried and she kissed my hand .

Christine's POV

I took out the ring he gave me and give it back to him . He look at me in the eyes and I can see tears dripping down those blue eyes .

" Christine .. I love you . "

I look at him and couldn't believe he said those words . I was breathless , I couldn't breathe . So I broke down and cried . I wrapped my hand around his and then I kissed his hand . I look back up at him and he carefully let go of my hand asking me to go . I started to walk away from him . What is this feeling ? Why does it hurt so much to leave him? Should I go ? Should I leave him ? Look at him ... he so heartbroken ... I could not leave him like this . I turned back to look at him . He look at me and nodded his head . Is he really letting me go ? Then I walk away again but still my heart aches so much . I look at him one last time and sing 

" Say you'll share with me one love , one lifetime . " somehow deep down in my heart , I wanted him to ask me to stay . But then Raoul's voice appear .

" Say the word and I will follow you . " but I love Raoul .. he held out his hand in a gentle way and asking me to hold it . I smiled at him and hold his hand . Then we took the boat and row away

" Share each day with me , each night , each morning .. " then that was the last time I saw my angel .
