A/N - Sooooo. I'm sick right now, so I decided to update. This seems like my most popular story (I guess more people read Poto than Ni No Kuni) So yeah. Here you go.
Also, just to let you know if you're imagining the story the way I am, Aaron has a soft French accent

Erik played the organ softly. He played quieter than usual. It was early, and Aaron was still sleeping.
Anyway, Erik was focused on his music. It distracted him from his thoughts about Christine. He still heard her voice in his mind when he played. He hoped that she was happy with the Viscount. He hoped that she was alright. Madame Giry had told him she had a daughter now. He sighed. She must be happy with him... he thought.
He suddenly felt someone hug him from behind. "Morning, papa," he heard Aaron's soft voice say. Aaron sat down next to him. "Good morning, Aaron," Erik said softly. Aaron smiled sweetly. Erik glanced at him before he continued playing. If Erik hadn't been deformed, you could mistake Aaron for his real son (NOOO!) Aaron's black hair just reached his shoulders. but his brown eyes weren't as stern as Erik's.
"Papa," Aaron said. "I heard that Viscount De Changy was coming back to the populaire."
Erik stopped playing and looked at Aaron. After a moment, he asked, "Where did you that?" "Meg told me," Aaron said. "She said his wife and daughter were coming with him." Christine, he thought. He sighed and adjusted his mask. "Stay here," he said. He stood up. "I'll be right back."
"W-where are you going?" Aaron asked, his voice shaking. Ever since he started talking, Aaron had been terrified of being alone. Madame Giry had said it might involve him being abandoned. "I'm just going to talk to Madame Giry," he said. "I'll right back," Aaron nodded. Erik got into the gondola and rowed away. He glanced back at Aaron, who had began to play the organ.
He turned around. Christine, he thought. Is she really coming back?

"Madame Giry!" Erik said. Madame Giry jumped slightly at his voice. "Erk, why are you-" "Is it true?" Erik asked. "Is she really coming back?"
Madame Giry sighed. "I just got the news yesterday," she said. "The Viscount is coming. And yes, Christine and their daughter are coming with him. How did you know?" "Meg told Aaron," he said. Madame Giry sighed again. "I had a feeling she would," she said. "Well it's true. Please, don't hurt Christine. She has enough on her plate these days without having to worry about being kidnapped again!"
Erik sighed. "I have my son to worry about these days," he said. "I won't harm her,"
Madame Giry nodded and muttered a quick, "Good bye,"
Erik sighed as he left.
She really was coming back.
