Here is chapter six and I hope you like it. And I also want to thank HeartsBroken and darkgemwildcat for reviewing my story and all those who have read this. I don't own Phantom of the Opera nor the characters. And I know that I'm being selfish for updating both of my Phantom of the Opera stories on my Birthday but I couldn't help it. But without more babbling enjoy the story.

Chapter 6 Masquerade

Three months passed quickly and it was the day of the New Years Eve. Christine was in no mood to celebrate. She wanted to die and be with her Angel but gladly Mme. Giry and Meg took good care of her. At least they cared about her if no one else did. Because Raoul certainly didn't care otherwise he wouldn't be pushing her to her limits because of the Opera House or with the word of marriage. Oh, how she now hated the word. She only want Erik no one else. Is it really too much to ask to be with the person you love.

That stupid Raoul even gave her a ring which she took immediately away from her finger and putted it in a chain. She putted the pale pink dress on her and tried to smile but she couldn't. Only her gloved and then she would be ready to go but the problem was that she couldn't find them. 'I could have sworn that I putted them on the table.' She thought but when she looked at the bed there they were. She took the gloved and then she an envelope and a simple golden ring. The handwriting was so familiar but she couldn't tell form where so she opened the letter and started to read it.

My Dearest Christine

When you read this letter I will be long gone. I wanted to tell you that I love you but I never couldn't so I hide my feelings and never told you and even if I wanted to we could never be together because I no longer belong to the light like you do. So as a memento of our moments together I want to give you this ring. Please live the life like you want to but no matter what don't throw it away.

Yours forever Erik

The letter brought tears to her eyes and she couldn't believe it was from her angel. She took the ring and putted it in her ring finger and smiled. With this ring she can go through anything. "Erik I love you." she whispered and kissed the golden ring. But all too soon the smile faded when there was a knock in the door and Raoul came in.

"Christine you look absolutely stunning." Raoul said surprised.

"Thank you." Christine said and walked out of the door because she didn't want to be seen with Raoul. But thinking about the letter somehow cheered her up and now it felt a good idea to go to the Masquerade. At least there will be Meg and Mme. Giry.

When Christine left without Raoul the said man was furious. He couldn't believe that she would do something like this to him. And on that moment Raoul swore that he will teach the girl a few lessons. From now on it wasn't love it was war.

-Christine-

I walked to the hall where the Masquerade was and I couldn't believe my eyes. Everyone looked absolutely stunning and spectacular but it all could be perfect if Erik were with me tonight. I also wondered what Erik would be wearing tonight. Would he wear the one he wore in my dream or something else? I am sure that he would look handsome. I watched at the people as they danced and sang. Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves and I was pleased by it. I looked at the room and suddenly the music stopped and everyone looked at the man on the top of the stairs. He wore a scarlet red costume and a mask which was similar to skull. I was so enchanted by his appearance that I didn't even hear his voice until he said my name and he was only a two feet away from me. Did we walk towards each other? We just stared at each other and I could see that he was breathing heavily but when he said my name second time I woke up from my trance.

"Christine." He said and I couldn't believe my ears. It's….it's him. I stared at his eyes not knowing what to say and then he tore the chain from my neck and threw it towards Raoul. I was frozen.

"Is it really you?" I whispered tears blurring my vision. He gently wiped the tears away and smiled to me.

"Yes Christine. I have come to get you back to me." he said and smiled to me.

"How can this be? You were supposed to be dead. The Vicomte killed you." Firmin said suddenly.

"I cannot die." Erik said and wrapped his arm around me and ran to the stairs and then we fell to this room which was full of mirrors. I looked at Erik and smiled. He is here with me and with no one else. Suddenly I felt sleepy and without a further warning I fell asleep in his arms. Felling safe after three long times. He came for me and that is all that matters.

I'm sorry that this was also so short I will try to make the chapter longer in the future but still reviews please. XD
