Once they arrived in town, Erik puts his hood up so no one could see his face, his angel wasn't very happy but as long as he didn't wear the mask she was happy.
They walked along the streets and looked at all the different items and Erik actually feels like he is normal for once and finally relaxes a bit.
"Did you want anything?"
"Hmm?" Christine looked up at him. "Oh no I'm okay I don't have any money anyways"
"Christine, you have all the money in the world, do not worry about it"'
"Well there is one more reason why we shouldn't go shopping"
"That would be?"
"I love shopping"
He laughs at her.
"That's why?"
"Yes... don't laugh at me, I like things that stand out" Christine pauses. "I know I should decorate the castle!" She said excitedly.
Erik scratched his head.
"Um Christine, I love your enthusiasm, but lets not re-decorate our home"
"Okay" She said upset that Erik didn't like her idea.
"Don't get me wrong I like the idea but I spent so much time making it special for you, I don't wanna change it just yet"
"Well then can I go look for new clothes?"
"Lead the way"
They enter a very high class store and she dances along the clothes happy, he stands by the door watching her ever so closely. Just then a lady approaches him.
"Excuse me sir, but did you enter the store with Christine Daee?
"I might of, who's asking?"
"I'm a big fan of her's and I'm to nervous to talk to her if you could ask her if I may talk to her I'd love it" She said grabbing his hand excitedly.
He takes his hand back.
"If it's a fan then yes I will let you see her, come" Erik walked the young girl to Christine.
"What is your name?"
"Oh, Janelle"
"Christine"
She turns around modeling a purple dress with a long sleeve, with diamonds in the shape of roses.
"What do you think"
The young girls eye's almost pop out of her head at the sight of Christine.
"Oh" Christine said. "Who is this?"
"This is Janelle, she's very shy but she wanted to meet you"
Christine smiled and stuck out her hand, Janelle was to nervous, but Erik nudged her too.
He is such a gentlemen Christine thought. The old Erik would never be this nice to a stranger.
"So Janelle what do you think of this dress?" She asked about the purple one.
"I love it!"
"This one?" She said picking up and black dress with a white print design on either side of the dress.
"Beautiful" Erik said.
Janelle nodded in agreement.
After a short while Janelle's mother came looking for her, so Erik and Christine were alone again.
"That was very sweet of you"
"It was nothing really, I just wanted to make you happy"
She finishes up with her shopping and as they were paying out, the lady they were in front noticed Erik's face.
"If you don't mind me asking but why is your face..." She got cut off.
"Do not ask that question" Erik shouted.
"Erik please don't shout, I'm sorry mam, he isn't like this"
"No it wasn't my place"
Erik throws a fit and walks out of the store. Christine gets mad at Erik for not being an adult, just after she complemented him.
"He was born with the side of his face marred and for that his mother hated him, so now he gets very defense-full when asked about it, I am truly sorry"
"It's not your fault, I thought he got hurt and I wanted to know if he was okay"
"Thank you for your concern"
Stupid! Erik shouted at himself. She gave me one simple task and i couldn't even do that, she will never forgive me, I will have to man up and apologize, oh do I hate that.
He walks back into the clothing shop and see's Christine talking to the lady he yelled at moments ago.
"I am sorry I yelled Madame, I don't like people talking about my face"
"I understand I would of yelled too if I went through what you went through"
Christine... you told her, how could you. He thought.
"Thank you for your time we must go" Erik said bowing.
