Christine

I stood there in the doorway of my apartment looking around hoping I wasnt leaving anything this time like I did before. I ran to the kitchen cutting off the coffee pot putting it in the sink then I was out the door. Only to see my bus speading away.

"NOOO WAIT PLEASE" I screamed as I tried to catch it but it was no use, I was going to have to either wait on the next one or catch a cab. I have to go with the cab, I thought as I stood to the side of the street raising my hand. "Taxi" after waiting a few minutes a cab pulled up, I got in.

"Where to ma'am?" Cab driver asked

"Lincoln Center Plaza please" I said and he looked at me. "Please or I'll be even more late" nodding and driving off, I took the time to get ready in the cab, struggling but doing a pretty good bun and changing my shoes. After a ride we pulled up to the Opera house.

"22.50 ma'am" cabbie said and I sighed here's money I could use on something else but I was paying the cabbie. I pulled out $25 giving it to him.

"Keep the change" I said jumping out of the cab and running in, once in I sign in and bumped into someone dropping my bag. "Oh shit" I reached for it so did he and we both bumped heads and started laughing.

"I'm sorry I didnt see you there I was looking for the managers office." the guy said I looked up at him and he was beautiful if a man can be that but he was.

"Umm" I said looking down. "It's up the stairs to the right 2nd door, knock 3 times then 2 more Harry is kinda weird"

"Thank you I'm Rauol and you are" Rauol smiled holding out his hand. I was about to shake it when I heard middle slection of La Boheme and knew how late I really was.

"I'm late" I said as I took off running toward the side doors, I needed to get to the back, once there I throw my stuff down making sure my hair in a tight bun. And I went running to the stage, running out to my spot.

"Christine you are late" Lady Margaret said Once I was in my place everything fell into place. After 3 hours of a long rehearsal we all was now stretching, getting water and talking lightly.

"You was late again" Judi said to me.

"I know I had to chase my bus then, I had to get a cab to get here" I said

"You need to leave earlier cause if you keep coming late you might get cut from the line" Meg said

"I dont think Lady Maragaret would get rid of me" I said

"It's not left to her, it's left to the Ghost who goes or who stays" Judi replied I just giggled at her.

"The Ghost really stop, I have never seen him if there is one" I laughed

"Why do you think Jade isnt here anymore, he didnt like her so he made sure she was off the line" Meg says

"You too where is he huh so scared, I got other things to worry about" I said

"Since you dont believe in the ghost then you wont have a problem going to box 5 sitting in his chair and take picture" Judi said and I looked at shaking my head, I grabbed my phone and walking out of the stage area, right to the side then up the stairs.

"1,2,3,4 annnnddd 5" I said to myself walking into box 5. I moved to the chair and sat down, from here you have the perfect veiw of everything. Pulling out my phone and I posed taking a picture. Looking over it, I saw glare from the light behind me, so I did it again this time the glare was gone. I was sitting there when it felt like someone was watching me.

I turned around and looked but there was no one there I knew it was Judi and Meg messing with me, looked back over when I felt something brush my cheek and I turned around looking. Just then one single curl fell down, I touched it wondering how it came loose with me just sitting here. I got up turning around and walking out of the box right down the stairs to Judi and Meg waiting.

"Happy?" I questioned looking at them both.

"Show us the picture you took" Judi asked and I pulled out my phone going to the second picture showing it to them.

"See no ghost" I said they both shrugged and we all laughed walking getting our bags, but I stopped and looked at the first picture. Studying it more I noticed it wasn't a trick from the light but it was 2 eyes, that staring behind me. I opened the picture up more to look at it, when...

"Come on your going to be late for your vocal lessions" some one said in my ear.

"Yea I can't be late for that too." I said putting up my phone grabbing my bag and running out of there. But I did look back wondering who just reminded me.

ERIK

I stood there as I watched her enter into my box, I was going to scare her and let her know this box is not to be messed with but it was her, I stood in the shadows and watched her. I stepped closer to look at her better allowing her to take a picture of just my eyes, I knew she didnt know if I was real of not but then I had to touch this beauty. I brushed her cheek and removed a pin from her hair just to see her hair fall down. After she left out of the box I watched her and as always she was to busy into something else so I had to give her a friendly reminder that she was going to be late for her lessions watching her leave, I nodded my head soon we will meet again.
