Christine stood in front of her peers to start her song and her eyes darted across the room until the met Meg's. Meg nodded her head in encouragement.
"Are you ready, Ms. Day?" Dr. Mulheim questioned.
"Oh yes," Christine said as she ran to the Ipod dock and turned on the Karaoke to her song. "This song is called 'All About Us' by T.A.T.U, I chose this song because I thought it had a special meaning to me, personally. It's about a couple that no one approves of so they run away to be together."
"Very romantic, Christine!" Meg yelled.
"Thank you Meg, so I guess I should begin."
With that, the slow intro to the song started and Christine opened her mouth to sing.
"They say
they don't trust
You, me, we, us"
All eyes were on Christine, but one special set of dark blue eyes paid especially close attention to the words that came out of her mouth
"So we'll fall
If we must
Cause it's you, me
And it's all about
It's all about"
Christine kept singing with her eyes closed because as her song took a mind of it's own, he began to see the Man with no Face in her view. The light emerged from the his silhouette and he was beckoning her to him. It was like his voice was coming from within her soul and he was singing this to her. She saw his beautiful deep blue eyes burning into hers as she kept singing. "Sing" he said, "Sing for me, Christine."
"They don't know
They can't see
Who we are
Fear is the enemy
Hold on tight
Hold on to me
'Cause tonight
It's all about us
It's all about
All about us
There's a thing that they can't touch
'Cause ya know
It's all about us
It's all about us"
With that Christine tripped on top of Charlotte's desk and was shaken out of her dream. Charlotte laughed right in her face, "You day dream too much for you, little girl?" The rest of the class roared with laughter and Christine just stood there, knowing perfectly that it was a day dream. There was no Man with no Face, there was only reality. Meg grabbed Christine's books and took Christine by the hand.
"Charlotte, you pig! You need to shut up!" Meg ran Christine out of the room as quickly as she could and didn't bother asking Dr. Mulheim for permission. She realized how embarrassing this situation was for her so she needed to get Christine out as soon as possible.
Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Erik stared at Christine as she sang her song, her face glowed and showed so much happiness, just as he remembered from the past. Then she hit the desk in front of her and he could tell she was shaken out of her dream. The whole class started laughing at her, which made Erik furious. How can they laugh at her beauty, at her voice? Yes, it was very light and she could use a bit of improvement, but it always did in every life. In all the lives the spent together he became her teacher and he was willing to do that again for her.
Before Erik could do anything, Meg had already grabbed Christine from the classroom and ran out the door. Erik was so ashamed that he wasn't able to be the one to save her, to be her angel so to speak. As the laughing continued, Erik angrily walked in front of the classroom.
"How dare you all mock Ms. Day?" The class grew silent at Erik's booming voice. "She was the only person to show actual feeling as she sang her song, and all of you had nothing to show. Yes, some of your voices were good, but you never showed any feeling."
Charlotte opened her mouth to speak, but Erik silenced her by raising his hand. "Silence, I don't want to hear it from any of you," as he said that the bell rang, "Get out of my sight, and remember what you learned today. If you want to be chosen for the end of the year concert you will believe in your song, and show that feeling. Take head, if you do not show any improvement before Winter Break, I will cut you from the program, and you will only be back ground noise for the better pupils."
With that all of the students hurried out of the classroom, including Charlotte, with her tail between her legs.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Christine and Meg arrived at the gym 15 minutes late to practice. Christine's face was still a bit red from crying due to the embarrassment that had occurred.
"Christine, you can't show weakness in front of the other girls. You are going to show them weakness and we have to be strong this year."
"I think I'm going to give up the role of head cheerleader, I think Charlotte should have it."
Meg gasped, "Don't be stupid, Chris, you know the reason she pulled that in Music today was to make you want to give up your role as head cheerleader."
Christine adjusted the red bow that held up her half pony tail. "I know, but I can't take it from her anymore. For the last few years, she has been nothing but evil towards me. I just want my senior year to be drama free."
"And there is a dream girl herself," Charlotte interrupted as the two entered the gym.
Meg growled at her, "That's enough, Charlotte, don't be jealous that Christine got head cheerleader and you didn't."
"Oh, please! I am not! I just found it funny that Christine is always somewhere else, besides I'm more jealous of what Dr. Mulheim said about her."
Christine cocked her head to the side, "He said something about my performance?"
"He said that we all needed to have more feeling in our songs," Christine laughed, " I guess he wants us all to live in a fairy land like you do, Christine, so please show us your ways."
Christine then stood tall and rolled her shoulders back. "Well apparently that's my secret, too bad, because if that's the case, it looks like I'll be the main act in the End of Year show doesn't it, Charlotte?"
Charlotte huffed, not being able to answer.
Christine handed her bag to Meg. "Now who's ready for some cheerleading practice? Charlotte, you will be in the back for now until I see some improvement. Right now, you are at the bottom of the pyramid."
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Christine laid in her bed that night thinking about all that happened. After cheerleading practice, Roman took her out for some ice cream, just the two of them. She told him about how Charlotte embarrassed her in class and he responded by touching her hand and saying that everything was going to be okay, and she is just jealous of her. Christine wanted to believe that, but it was so hard seeing that Charlotte was better in everything than her. Roman just didn't understand how it felt like. Christine had always been the victim of bullying and Roman hadn't. Roman never really dealt with other guys giving him crap about anything, they actually high- fived him when they found out he was with her.
For some strange reason, the only time she felt safe was when Dr. Mulheim had come to talk to her about her performance during class. He seemed to really care that she sang. Also, he telling the entire class that she showed feeling in the song was such a compliment that she had to thank him tomorrow. Even though they only have Music Class Monday's and Wednesday's, she was sure he would still be around the halls somewhere. With that thought, Christine slowly fell asleep; hoping the man without a face would appear that night and sweep her away to another world.
Hope you guys enjoyed this chapter! I decided to change up Erik's POV because It was hard to keep it up as first person! Hopefully it didn't ruin anything! Thanks guys so much for reading! New chapter coming soon! Remember to R+R xoxoMoonlightrose91oxox
