Christine's POV

Meg and I were running through the parking lot as fast as we could in order to get to class. It was our first day and as everyone knows, they can get pretty hectic. Especially, the first day of college. Meg and I have been together since birth. When I was 13 my mom and dad died and I ended up moving in with my godmother, Antonia Gonzalez, and her daughter, Margarita Gonzalez (AKA Meg).

We lived in the Bronx where the rest of my Aunt Antonia's family lived. I always thought it was funny that the 300 family members of Aunt Antonia's extended family lived close together, including all of their other close family friends. The good thing about being so close was that I was never bored and there was always a party.

When I started living with my Aunt Antonia her whole family accepted me. I started learning how to speak Spanish very fluently. Meg taught me how to dance to Spanish music, and by the end of the year I could have been considered Mexican myself. I treated them all like family and I felt like I really belonged.

Meg and I attended an all Mexican school with the exception of about 10 American kids. Meg and I had always been overachievers in the art of theatre. By the beginning of Senior year Meg and I were considered the theatre professionals of the school. It was at the beginning of Freshman year that I met Raul. Raul had moved to the Bronx during Senior year and all the girls in school were in love with him.

Raul had never noticed anyone until he met me. He was in almost every single one of my classes. We ended up being able to get to know each other fairly well and he asked me to be his girlfriend. We have been together for almost 4 years now.

By the end of senior year Meg and I decided that we would both like to go to Julliard. Meg's mom was our Drama teacher and she had connections with almost every music school in the U.S. Meg's mom got in contact with Julliard and got someone from their school to watch Meg and I perform at our last performance.

We never exactly got to meet the man who gave us these full scholarships because as soon as it was over all of our fans came up to congratulate us. As soon as Meg and I were done being chased down by our fans we tried to find the man who came to watch us perform to see if he could give us some feedback. Meg and I literally searched the whole school for him. My guess was that he probably had a lot more people to watch perform so I didn't think much of it.

Erik's POV

I remember the day I went to watch her perform. She was so beautiful, she could've been mistaken for a goddess. I have to admit I was a little nervous when my old friend Antonia Gonzalez called me and asked if I could watch her daughter, Margarita, and her goddaughter, Christine perform. Antonia had informed me that Margarita and Christine had been wanting to go to Julliard for a whole year.

Because I am an alumni I was given the chance to watch people perform and see if they were talented enough to attend to Julliard. I decided to obtain the job because I thought if someone was able to see true talent, it was me.

Antonia informed me when and where the performance was to be held. As soon as I got the information I prepared myself for the little trip. I had arrived just as the performance was starting. They had just shut the lights of and had started introducing the people who helped make the performance possible. Antonia stepped out after she had been introduced and she began to introduce the performers.

"And our lead dancer, Margarita Gonzalez!" A quite dashing young lady stepped out as the crowd cheered. "And last but certainly not least, playing our lead role,... Christine Daae!" A beautiful girl with a porcelain skin and a beautiful smile stepped out as the crowd cheered, whistled, and screamed.

The performance was beautiful. Antonia's daughter, Margarita was a very great dancer. She really had talent, just like her mother. Christine was doing extraordinary. She had the beautiful voice of an angel. Antonia told me that Christine would be doing a couple of solos considering that this was her last performance at the school. I couldn't wait for her next solo that was coming up shortly.

Think of me, think of me fondly
When we've said goodbye
Remember me, once in a while
Please, promise me you'll try

And you'll find that once again you long
To take your heart back and be free
If you ever find a moment
Spare a thought for me

We never said "our love was evergreen"
Or "as unchanging as the sea"
But if you can still remember,
Stop and think of me

Think of all the things
We've shared and seen
Don't think about the way
Things might have been

Think of me, think of me waking
Silent and resigned
Imagine me trying too hard
To put you from my mind

Recall those days, look back on all those times
Think of the things we'll never do
There will never be a day
When I won't think of you

Flowers fade, the fruit of summer fade
They have their seasons, so do we
But please promise me that sometimes
You will think of me!

She sounded so great. She truly was an angel. Christine Daae had more than talent. Christine Daae could become the greatest singer in the world. I had finally made the decision of giving Christine and Margarita a full scholarship to Julliard and arranged for them to be in our honors program as well.

Today was the day that I would see my angel again. I couldn't wait. As I stood in my home I looked out the window. Outside I could see the whole campus. As my eyes wandered around my eyes were met with the most beautiful sight in the world. Christine Daae. She was running through the parking lot with Margarita.

I decided to get a better view of her so I stepped out onto the patio to get a better look. As my eyes returned to her, she stared into my eyes and pointed at me. I was so embarrassed that I ran right back into my home without another thought.
