Every Breath You Take
Disclaimer: I do not own P.O.T.O. or 'Every Breath You Take'
Christine woke up in the middle of the night to a strange sound. It was someone singing! She sat up and looked around. There was no one there. 'It couldn't be.' she thought. She got out of bed and walked over to the door. She opened it and stepped out. Christine crept down the stairs and into the parlor. She couldn't see anyone but, now she could hear what they were singing.
Every breath you take
Every move you make
Every bond you break
Every step you take
I'll be watching you
Christine ran to the front door and unlocked it. She opened it and ran outside. She could hear the singing now, clearer than ever. She searched for the source again. It was comingfrom the balcony. Christine ran to the balcony and looked up. She couldn't see so she started to climb up the trellis.
Every single day
Every word you say
Every game you play
Every night you stay
I'll be watching you
Christine reached the top and looked over the edge of the balcony. There stood Erik with a rose. He looked over and saw her. Christine pulled herself over the side and walked over to him.
O can't you see
You belong to me
How my poor heart aches with every step you take
''Erik, what are you doing here?''Christine asked. He ignored her question and gave her the rose.
Every move you make
Every vow you break
Every smile you fake
Every claim you stake
I'll be watching you
Christine wrapped her arms around him and sighed. ''I missed you, Erik.'' she told him.
Since you've gone I been lost without a trace
I dream at night I can only see your face
I look around but it's you I can't replace
I feel so cold and I long for your embrace
I keep crying baby, baby please
Erik caressed Christine's cheek and finished the song.
Every move you make
Every vow you break
Every smile you fake
Every claim you stake
I'll be watching you
He smiled and kissed her forehead.''Please...Christine, come with me.''
Christine looked down and then through the window,atRaoul.
''I can't. I couldn't just leave Raoul.'' she said.Erik pulled her close to him and stroked her hair.
''But, I thought you loved me.''he said.Christine sighed and looked towards Raoul again.
''I do.'' she replied.''And I will come with you.''
She snuck back down the trellis with Erik and back inside. Erik waited in the parlor while Christine packed her things up. She didn't have much, because the only clothes she wanted were her old ones and not the ones that Raoul had bought for her. Christine quickly wrote a letter to Raoul and placed it in her spot on the bed.She kissed his head one last time and went downstairs. Erik took some of her stuff for her and they left. Erik had a carriage waiting for them and Christine got inside. Erik pulled the rains and they left the De Chagny manor. Christine was surprised when she got out and they were in front of an Inn.
''The Opera house is still under repair and I wouldn't want to risk being seen by anyone.''Erik told her.''So, we're staying here for a few days.''
Erik took Christine inside and he showed her where their room was. It was a small room with a big feather bed and a table. Erik and Christine crawled into the bed and fell asleep.
''I love you Christine.''Erik whispered.
