Christine
"Oh God!" I cried. "Erik where is your medicine?!"
"Christine. My Christine. You are so beautiful. I love you so much," he whispered. I sat next to him on the bed and took his hand. He was very cold.
"Erik, please tell me where your medicine is," I begged quietly. He closed his eyes.
"I'm so tired my love," he stated.
"I know Erik, but you must tell me where your medicine is I repeated.
"In my desk. It's in my desk," he rasped.
"Christian, search his desk for a small white bottle," I ordered. As Christian searched, I slid the mask off Erik's face and kissed his cheek.
"I'm sorry Christine," he said softly.
"For what Erik?" I asked.
"I won't be there to wait for you," he answered.
"You won't be where?" I asked confused.
"Heaven; I won't be in Heaven. A monster like me doesn't belong there," he stated.
"Don't talk like that Erik. You're going to be fine," I said and began to stroke his hair.
"I found it!" Christian called. He walked over to me and handed me the bottle.
"Go get a glass of wine Christian," I instructed. "And please hurry." He ran out of the room, and I opened the bottle and dropped two pills into my hand. Christian came back in and handed me the glass of wine. I helped Erik sit up and take his pills. After he had taken them, I laid down next to him until he fell asleep. When I went out into the sitting room, I found Christian staring at something on the mantle. I walked over to him and put a hand on his shoulder.
"Who is this?" he asked and pointed to a picture.
"It's Erik's father," I stated. "Why do you ask Christian?"
"Because I look just like him."
"Oh God!" I cried. "Erik where is your medicine?!"
"Christine. My Christine. You are so beautiful. I love you so much," he whispered. I sat next to him on the bed and took his hand. He was very cold.
