A true drabble, going back to the beginning a bit. Thanks to sparklyscorpion for helping to lure me out of hiding :)


Indiscretion

Behind the mirror, I could not help but listen as Christine described her Angel of Music to little Giry. I had sworn her to secrecy, yet I could not chastise my pupil for this indiscretion…to hear her speak of me with such excitement, to know that I was the reason behind her smile, was worth her disobedience. Mme Giry soon whisked her daughter away to rehearsals, and I watched Christine as she sat at the vanity and removed the last pieces of Elissa's costume. She had triumphed that night, we had triumphed, and my mind buzzed with words of praise.
