Chapter 4

Madame Giry hears screaming coming from Christine's dressing room. She quickly runs to her room but when she gets their she finds the door lock.

"Let me in Christine." She says knocking on the door. But she hears another voice. Raoul's voice.

"YOU WILL NEVER LEAVE MY SIDE AGAIN. DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME! YOU WILL MARRY ME. SO I CAN KEEP A LEASH ON YOU! I DON'T WANT YOU TO VERY RUN OUT ON ME AGAIN! DO YOU HEAR ME?!"

"I will never marry you. I would rather die than marry you. I have no love for you. I don't care if I ever get out of here alive. You can never make me love you!"

Outside the door

"I need the spare key to this room NOW!" She yells at a stage boy. He quickly runs to go get the spare key to Christine's dressing room. By the time the boy get back she hears Christine scream again.

Inside

Raoul smacked Christine again. When Madame Giry gets into the room she sees Christine in the corner of the room and Raoul standing in front of her ready to smack Christine once more.

"HELP! Someone get in here and help me NOW!" She screams. Then 4 stage workers come to get Raoul's hands off Christine. When Raoul is out of the room. Christine is crying nonstop. Madame Giry runs her to her room where Christine is taken to the secret passageway that leads down to Erik.

"Meg help me carry Christine." Meg agrees but does not ask any questions about where she is taking Christine.

Meanwhile

Erik is sitting at his organ and thinking about his angel of music. When he hears, some water splashing.

"ERIK! ERIK GET OVER HERE NOW!" He sees Madame Giry and Meg carry Christine. He knew right away that something was not right. He quickly gets up and opens the gate. He runs to get Christine. When he gets to his angel he sees that she has been bleeding.

"What happen to her?!"

"Raoul hit her. By the time, I got to her he said he was going to force Christine to marry him."

"Like hell he will. Over my dead body." He takes Christine from Meg and Madame Giry and takes his angel to his bed. He lays her down in his bed and leaves to talk to Madame Giry.

"When I get my hands on that boy he is DEAD!" Erik said with such anger.

"Erik don't. You know killing Raoul won't change what happened to Christine. All she needs right now is you by her side. I will deal with Raoul." Things go silent when everyone hears Christine crying. Erik rushed to her side.

"Erik why would he do this to me. What did I do?" She said with tears rushing down her race.

"Oh, my angel I'm so sorry this happened to you." He said holding her tightly. Madame Giry walked with Meg.

"My dear Christine tell us what happened. Please." Madame Giry said.

"He came in my dressing room and asked where I had been I didn't respond and then he-he-he hit me. Then he said the he will force me to marry him so he could watch me closely. I told him I would rather die than marry him. Then he smacked me once more…. I screamed for help. I didn't know what to do."

"It's alright Christine you're safe now my angel." Erik said. He knew that Raoul would never get way with this. He hurt the one thing that Erik loved most. His angel…. His Christine.

"He cannot get away with this… What am I to do. I have to go back up their sooner or later." She said.

"Don't worry Christine. Raoul will not hurt you again. For now, you will have someone with you at all times. Till then you will stay here with Erik. I will come for you when I have everything under control." With that Madame Giry leaves with Meg. They head up staid to tell the manager what had happened. When they get up to the stage the find the managers with Raoul.

"M. Firmin M. Andre my I have a word with you alone."

They nod and head to Madame Giry's office.

"Where is Christine ever his looking for her?"

"We have a problem."

"What are you saying?" Firmin asked Madame Giry.

"A few moments ago, I found Raoul beating Miss. Daae."

"Do you have any witness to this."

"Better yet I can show you her cuts and bruises."

"The where she?" Andre asked.

"Come tomorrow around noon Christine and I will be in my office."

"Very well the until tomorrow Giry." Fir in said. With that they both leave.

"Mother what are we going to do?"

"I don't know. But we have to keep a good eye on Christine."

"I think it's better if she stays in my room from now on mother. It will be safer for her at night." Meg said.

"Your right Meg. Let's go tell Christine."

Meanwhile

Christine walked toward Erik who was sitting at his organ. She sat next to him giving a hug.

"Oh, Christine I'm so sorry this happened to you. Please forgive me." He said with tears almost in his eyes.

"Oh angel. Don't blame yourself. It was not your fault." She gives Erik a kiss. They look at each other, they knew that they loved each other very much. He goes in for another kiss but this time they never let go of each other. They kissed with such passion for one another. He holds her tightly. When he realizes what, he is doing he backs off. Breaking their passionate kiss.

"Christine I'm sorry I don't know what came over me."

"It's fine. Don't apologize for something that we both want." He looks at her and kissed her again. He lifted her from the piano bench taking her to his bed. Laying her down softy onto the bed. When they hear Madame Giry's voice.

Darn just getting to the good part. Will Erik and Christine get to finish what they started or not. P.S I may cut the nitty gritty senses just a bit. Chapter 5 will be up very soon. Please review. Thank you.
