Ever since Christine left, the Phantom is heartbroken. Y/N is, also, for she cannot bear to ever see Erik damaged, hurt, or heartbroken. Erik just thinks Y/N is overprotective of her first and only friend, but little does Erik know that Y/N is actually in love with Erik. A few weeks later, when Y/N's childhood friend, Philippe, comes along, everything, even Erik's rising love for Y/N, crumbles. Find out what happens in this story filled with adventure, romance, masquerades, and evil people. (By the way, this is my first online story, so sorry if it's really bad! Enjoy!) Also, I do not own The Phantom of the Opera or most of the pictures.
