The Discovery:

Raoul arrived in his carriage at the Opera House, "Wait a moment, please." He said to the driver as he stepped outside the carriage. He looked around at his surroundings. The moon was full as the Opera House was lit, shining brightly in the darkness. Raoul walked up the steps and into the main lobby of the Opera House were he spotted Meg.

"Raoul!" Meg said running over to him.

"Hello Meg. You look wonderful this evening." Raoul said back smiling.

"Thank you! You look wonderful as well, as you always do." Meg said biting her lip.

"Thank you very much Meg, shall we go?" Raoul said a bit plainly.

"Raoul?" Meg asked worriedly.

"Yes?"

"Are you feeling well?" She asked again looking concerned.

"Yes, why do you ask?" Raoul said trying to put on a smile.

"Well... you seem sad...what are you sad about Raoul? Is it me?" Meg asked closing her eyes and taking a few steps back.

"It's...Christine..." Raoul said trying to take Meg's hands, but she resisted.

"And all this time you had me believing it was me who you liked? But really, you are still in love with Christine... I thought you were different Raoul... But I was mistaken..." Meg said fighting back the tears.

"Meg..." Raoul tried to say but was interrupted.

"No...don't even try... I should be on my way..."

"Oh Meg..." Raoul said as Meg ran up the stairs to her mother's office.

Raoul watched as she ran away from him, he bowed his head, and gently turned to leave. He walked down the steps of the Opera house to his carriage.

"Where is your date Monsieur?" The driver asked Raoul as he stepped inside.

"It is nothing of your concern, take me home." Raoul replied coldly.

"Yes Monsieur." The cab driver said driving off.

"Why did you leave me Christine? Why do you still reside within my heart? Will you ever leave, or will I be stuck with the pain of knowing that you and Erik are living together under the Opera house, when it should be you and I living together, in a home on the country side..." Raoul said to himself looking out the carriage window, it began to rain when he finally reached his home, and pitifully he walked up the steps and into his home closing the door behind him.

Meanwhile Meg was in her mother's office crying, "Why Mama? Why did he do this to me? All that he said earlier was a lie... Why did I believe him?"

"Now Meg... Don't cry" Mme. Giry said lifting Meg's chin up and wiping away the tears, "He's just confused, he isn't sure of how he feels yet. I'm sure whatever he told you was from the heart."

"But how do I know that it was not meant for Christine? How do I know Mama?" Meg said sadly bringing her head down again.

"Meg? You will have to learn that these things happen... I'm terribly sorry that it happened to you, but if you two are meant to be, then he will come back, but if you aren't meant to be together, then you will find someone else who you will love, is that clear Meg?" Mme. Giry said sighing.

"But I can't love another person!" Meg said stubbornly, "I only love him! I can't lose him Mama! I can't..."

"Be quiet now child, and rest." Mme. Giry said resting Meg's head on her lap.

A/N: Haha! Meg is so stuborn! I swear, but you gotta feel bad for the poor thing... Anywho! I hope you liked! There is more to come! I'll probably try to post it tomorrow night! Thanks again for the reviews and please review! Bye!
