Disclaimer- I don't own any of these character (oh but believe me, I am saving every single penny so I can buy Christian…hehe) or any of the songs.
Summary- What if Satine never died? What if she chose the Duke over love? What if Christian never went to the Moulin Rouge on opening night? What if all this happened, and then one magic day 12 years later our two favorite star-crossed lovers had a chance meeting?
Note- The songs I used are both songs by the Beatles. The first is "The Long and Winding Road,"(very sad but beautiful song) I added in the "I love you" part because it fit with the mood of the scene. The second I used was "Yesterday" (another beautiful but sad song.) Hope you like them!
*~*~*~*~*
Satine quietly walked the moonlit streets of Paris. It washer first time out since she had left Christian. All day she had wept alone in her room. Wept for all the suffering she had caused her penniless poet, for all those years of bitterness and pain. She had sobbed for all the happiness she had robbed them of, but most of all she cried because she lacked the courage to tell him the truth. To tell him she loved him.
"The wild and windy night the rain-washed away,
Has left a pool of tears crying for the day.
Why leave me standing here, let me know the way"
Satine softly sang the bittersweet melody letting it drift into the night sky. Why had she come back to Paris? Why couldn't she have just let the past be? Just go on being the actress...the Duke's mistress? And why of all the times and places in the world...why did she have to see Christian again at the Moulin Rouge?
"Many times I've been alone and many times I've cried
Anyway you'll never know the many ways I've tried to say
I love you..."
Fresh tears began to well in her eyes. If he only knew how much she loved him. If he only knew what she was concealing in her heart." But he never will," Satine sighed to herself," he never will." Try to push Christian from her mind, Satine quicken her pace to a same cafe on a street corner.
"I suppose this will do," she sighed to herself as she enter the place, "I should get myself good and drunk..."
*~*~*~*~*
"How much I hated this city. It was so full of love...so full of naive dreams, just like I use to be." Christian spoke aloud to no one in particular. All day he had wandered the city, alone with is thoughts. Losing him self in memories of her, of their love.
"Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away
Now it looks as though they're here to stay
Oh, I believe in yesterday."
He wished he never gotten on that train to come back to Paris. The city only held bittersweet memories of what he once had. Of what he had with her. He never would have come if he knew she was here in Paris. He would have stayed in London, locked inside his world between reality and drunkenness.
"Suddenly, I'm not half to man I used to be,
There's a shadow hanging over me.
Oh, yesterday came suddenly.
Why she had to go I don't
know she wouldn't say.
I said something wrong, now I long for yesterday."
The past 24 hours had confused him so much. He didn't know how he should feel about Satine anymore. One minute he wanted to scream at her, the next all he wanted to do was kiss her and love her.
"I'm done with think..." Christian sighed as he walked along, "all I want is some 'peace of mind'." Then he saw it. It was small and not fancy, but it seemed perfect. The perfect cafe for him to drown away his sorrows. For Christian to find his peace of mind.
*~*~*~*~*
Quickly he sped toward the cafe. This was it...this is where he would find some peace...this is where he would be able to forget. Quickly he rushed through its open doors when...
Whack! Without looking he had tumbled right into a woman standing right near the doors opening. The woman let out as small scream as Christian landed right on top of her on the floor.
"Excuse me mademoiselle I..." but before he could finish his sentence he felt a lump form in his throat when he looked down at the woman he was on top of. Instead of finding his "peace of mind" he had been looking for, he only managed to find him self right on top of Satine.
Oh Bloody Hell…
*~*~*~*~*
A/N- Well I hope you guys liked it! Yes I know another cliffhanger but I couldn't help myself…you will just have to read to find out what happens next. Cause well the next chapter is going to have a medley, but a not exactly happy one. I know, I know, all this angst but have faith in me! I promise there will be happiness in store for our two favorite lovers!
Anyway I have figured out what I am doing to do with that chapter I wrote begging for help with this story. Once I am finished with this story, I will turn it into a chapter for to all the reviews that wrote me all those lovely reviews. You guys have no idea how happy it makes me when you say you like my writing. It really can make my day. So that chapter will be my thanks to you.
Please read and review! Oh, and I'm still in need of a title!
