AUTHOR'S NOTE: Well I had used Italics for lyrics and Bold for the upper case names but it doesn't show up on the fan fiction site for some reason so I am using for names and ~~ for unsung lyrics. I have changed some things in chapter 2-4 but mostly 2 and 4. Before reading this, skim over 2- 4.

Thank you. :)

***************************************************************************

Night has fallen upon the town and Christian has passed out upon his bed; his apartment isn't as bad as it was before, more tidy but still gloomy. But William is not found inside the apartment. He happens to be outside leaning against the outer wall, watching the darkened sky. He heaves a small sighing thinking of no other than Mirabelle. She has filled till the point of him seeing her face on the moon.

\\WILLIAM (softly)\\

If you're not the one then why does my soul feel glad today? If you're not the one then why does my hand fit yours this way? If you are not mine then why does your heart my calls?

He begins to walk forth.

\\WILLIAM\\

If you are not mine would I have the strength to stand at all?

He walks about through the shadowy town of silence, passing by prostitutes, low-lifes, and etc.

\\WILLIAM\\

I don't know what the future brings, but I know your here with me now.

He catches eye of a hooker flirting a rich folk.

\\WILLIAM\\

We'll make it through and I hope you are the one I share my life with.

He stares away.

\\WILLIAM\\

I don't wanna run away but I can't take it I don't understand. If I'm not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am? Is there anyway that I can stay in your arms?

\\WILLIAM\\

If I don't need you then why am I crying on my bed? If I don't need you then why does your name resound in my head?

He looks at a puddle and sees Mirabelle's face for a few seconds.

\\WILLIAM\\

If you're not for me then why does this distance name my life?

The moon has her face again staring down at him.

\\WILLIAM\\

If your not for me then why do I dream of you as my wife?

The face disappears.

\\WILLIAM\\

I don't know why your so far away but I know this much is true. We'll make it through and I hope you are the one I share my life with. And I wish that you could be the one I die with.

He glances and sees a husband coming home to a greeting wife.

\\WILLIAM\\

And I pray that you're the one I build my home with I hope I love you all my life.

He turns away to stroll on another street.

\\WILLIAM\\

I don't wanna run away but I can't take it I don't understand. If I'm not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am? Is there anyway that I can stay in your arms?

Without looking light start to be out from homes and shops.

\\WILLIAM (softly)\\

Cause I miss you body and soul so strong that it takes my breath away. And I breathe you into my heart and I pray for the strength to stand today.

He makes it to the public housing where he is staying with Christian.

\\WILLIAM\\

Cause I love you whether it's wrong or right and though I cant be with you tonight. And though my heart is by your side.

He trots up the stairs.

\\WILLIAM\\

I don't wanna run away but I can't take it I don't understand. If I'm not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am?

He pauses at the door.

\\WILLIAM\\

Is there anyway that I can stay in your arms.

He opens it and closes it quietly.

The night passes as the sun rises. All actors practice with their parts this time as Mirabelle finishes going over lines with Russell, who's hair is put up will few fallen tendrils and a violet gown with accents of blue velvet on this stunning attire, having a train that is gathered in the back, and a matching skirt to go below.

He tries to flirt with her from to time. William watches with jealousy as he tries hard to work but finds himself distracted.

\\WILLIAM (to himself in a whisper)\\

Come on, William. She doesn't think of you that way. Pull yourself together.

He glances again, seeing Russell picking up his fallen papers of his script, and finds Mirabelle staring back at him. He almost forgets what he is doing as their eyes have locked. But Mirabelle breaks it to look back at Russell.

Andre then, fumbling with his papers, walks over to Mirabelle with Russell passing by. But abruptly, Russell is seen tripping Andre, causing him to fall backwards. Everyone freezes and some rush over to help him, including Toulouse, Christian, the Argentian, Mirabelle, and William.

Andre sits up.

\\TOULOUSE\\

Are you all right?

\\ANDRE\\

Perfectly fine, sir.

He attempts to get up but his left ankle throbs in pain. He gives a yelp falls down.

\\ANDRE\\

On second thought.

Zidler rushes over in a slight panic.

\\ZIDLER\\

He is alright?

William is already kneeled down to examine the ankle.

\\WILLIAM\\

He's sprained his left ankle.

\\ZIDLER\\

No, we need a him. We have no one else.

\\ARGENTIAN\\

I'm sure we can find someone.

\\CHRISTIAN\\

Not likely.

An argument ensues as William arises. Russell opens his mouth to say something until-

\\WILLIAM\\

I'll do it.

There is silence.

\\WILLIAM\\

I can learn the lines fast enough.

\\TOULOUSE\\

Can you at least sing?

\\WILLIAM\\

Most likely.

\\ZIDLER\\

It's settled then, he's the new Penniless Sitar Player.

Russell glares at William in disapproval before walks away; William catches it and gives a confused expression.

\\MIRABELLE\\

I guess I have teach you to dance no matter what.

He stares to her catching her smile. She walks past him with him smirking back.
