Sorry I haven't updated in forever, you know how the end of school can get. Ugh... but it's SUMMER NOW! You know what this means, I'm going to update to the point of it being annoying most likely! Woooo!
"Hey Calandra," Erik said hoarsely. "Could you- ACHOO!- go to the florist and pick me up some red roses and black ribbons? I'm- ACHOO!- not really feeling up to it."
"Sure!" Calandra said, skipping out of the lair.
As soon as Calandra had turned the corner walking from the Opera Populaire, a carriage pulled up, and she was scooped inside. Who was in the carriage other than La Carlotta herself.
"Mother?" Calandra said, shocked. "What is the meaning of this!"
"I've got you a date set up! And guess who with? Well I'll tell you who with! Someone much better than that Gustave boy- it's Duke Korey Coomey! He's well mannered, he's wealthy- he's ROYALTY! You're going to be a duchess when you get married!" Carlotta spilled, very excited.
"Whoa, whoa, who said anything about getting married?" Calandra said.
"I did." Carlotta said with a smirk, letting out a mischevious chuckle.
Sorry so short... and cliffhanger-y, but a chapter is a chapter is a chapter? Who is Duke Corey Coomey? What did La Carlotta mean? Will Erik ever get his stuff from the florist? The world may never know...
