Ch 1: Plans for Paris
Steph's POV
It was the beginning of summer break my friends, Janeen, Alicia, and I were watching a movie, a movie called 'The Phantom of the Opera'. After the movie, I looked at them. "Do you think the Phantom is still around?"
Janeen shook her head. "There's no way. He'd be…" you could see her math gears turning in her head, "Almost one hundred and ninety years old by now. He's definitely dead." I shrugged.
Alicia smiled. "That'd be pretty cool if he were."
I nodded. "Well, I want to go to Paris and to the Opera Populaire and see what I can find out. Who knows…the Phantom may still be there." Janeen and Alicia looked at each other then at me.
"Count me in." said Janeen.
"Me too." Alicia replied soon after.
I grinned. "Good. Pack your bags cause we leave for the airport in an hour. Also, we're staying in Paris for a month." Janeen and Alicia blinked.
About 45 minutes later, they came back to my house and we left for the airport. When we got to Paris a few hours later, I felt my stomach tighten. What if he wasn't real? What if we traveled this far for nothing? What if one of us fell in love and left the others behind when we went back? Oh god, I could only hope none of those would happen.
