Summary: In the present day, Erik (who doesn't have a car), now living in a small cottage in the Paris countryside, meets Christine, a red and white 1958 Plymouth Fury. Will it be love? Oneshot unless someone gives me ideas. Read & Review please!
Erik was walking home after the taxi had dropped him off from looking for a car. He had looked in every dealership he saw, but he hadn't found a car that he loved. Erik had seen very nice-looking cars, but he didn't feel any special connection with any of them. He wanted his own car because he was tired of taking taxis everywhere and he hated all of the taxi drivers.
Anyway, Erik had just gotten to the road that led to his home when he saw a beautiful Autumn red and Ivory white 1958 Plymouth Fury. Erik's jaw dropped in awe and his heart skipped a beat. Suddenly, the car's radio turned on by itself and an old song by Johnny Ace called "Pledging My Love" started playing to him.
Forever my darling our love will be true
Always and forever
I'll love just you
Just promise me darling your love in return
May this fire in my soul dear forever burn
My heart's at your command dear
To keep love and to hold
Making you happy is my desire dear
Keeping you is my goal
I'll forever love you
The rest of my days
I'll never part from you
And your loving way
Erik's heart started thundering in his chest with more love for this beautiful Christine that the love he had once felt for sweet Christine Daae paled in comparison to the love he felt for fiery Christine. Erik walked over to Christine and kissed her hood. He then sang an old song by Elvis Presley to her.
Wise men say only fools rush in
But I can't help falling in love with you
Shall I stay
Would it be a sin
If I can't help falling in love with you
Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I can't help falling in love with you
Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling so it goes
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I can't help falling in love with you
For I can't help falling in love with you
Erik walked over to the driver's side of Christine, opened her door, got behind her wheel and closed her door. Christine then started herself up for Erik and they drove home. This is how they first started loving each other.
