Song Lyrics: Christine is in Italics and Erik is in bold both italic and bold is both Erik and Christine

Christine walked out of her large room at the De Chagny Manior she slowly and silently slunk past Raouls room and out into the cool spring night air.

"Little Lotte thought of every thing. Her Angel of Music had left her and now her Wedding was in a week. Little Lotte felt an empty feeling in the pit of her stomach. Little Lotte wondered am I more fond of my Angel or of Raoul?"

Walking down the dirt path to the rose garden she thought of her Angel. The black ribbon around her wrist made the memory even closer.

"You were once my one companion. You were all that mattered. You were once a Friend and Master. Then my world was shattered. Wishing you were somehow here again, wishing you were somehow near. Sometime it seemed if I just dreamed somehow you would be here. Wishing I could hear your voice again. Knowing that I never will. Dreaming of you help me to do all that I wish I could. Passing flowers and sculpted angels still and monumental, seem for you the right commpanions. You were misterious and gentel. Too many nights fighting back tears. Why can't my past just die? Wishing you were some how here again. Knowing that after I said goodbye. Try to forgive. Teach me to live. Give me the strength to try. No more memories. No more silent tears. No more gazing back on the waisted love. Help me say goodbye. Help me to say goodbye!"

Christine slumped onto the the stone bench under the gazebo. Silent tears fell down her cheeks as she picked a flawless red rose.

"Wondering child so lost so helpless yearning for my guidence." An all to firmilar voice echoed and engulfed her.

"Angel or Lover? Friend or Phantom? Who is it there staring?"

"You have not forgoten your angel?"

"My Angel O speak! What endless longing echo in this whisper?"

"Too long you've wandered in day light. Too far from my loveing gaze."

"Wildly my heart beats against you."

"You resist!"

"Yet your soul obeys!" "Yet the soul obeys!"

"Angel of Music!"

"I denied you!" "You denied me!"

"Turning from true beauty!"

"Angel of Music!"

"You have shunned me!" "My protector!"

"Come to your strange Angel!" "Come to me beautiful Angel!"

Christine was standing clutching the rose looking into the moon from where His voice seemed to come. Suddenly a black figure appeared in front of the silver coin.

"Angel?" Christine asked into the night.

The figure came closer revealing the cloak and mask clad Phantom who slowly and hesitantly came foreward and grabbed her hand. Taking his large hand in both of her small ones she pressed it to her heart.

"All I want is freedom a world with no more light. And you here besides me to hold me and to hide me."

The Phantoms face went sickly pale as he gazed at her.

"Say you love me every wakeing moment lead me save me from my solitued. Say you want me with you here be side you. Love me that's all I ask of you."

"Yes." She leaned up and whispered in his ear.

Tears filled the Phantoms green eyes and he began to sob dropping to his knees in front of her. He pressed into her hand her engagement ring and kissed the gentle skin.

Dearest Raoul,

I'm most sorry to inform you but I made a dreadful mistake. I regret to inform you that I am leaving and will not return.

With love forever,

Christine

"Are you redy Christine?" The Phantom offered her his hand.

"Dear as silly as this may sound I don't know your Given name."

"Erik. My name is Erik Destler." Christine lent up and kissed him a kiss which he returned.

"It fits." She whispered.

"Erik." She kissed him again
