Eyes

Christine hoped the kiss would tell him. She would happily stay with him, and Raoul would be set free. She kissed him, and was reassured when he kissed her back with all his heart and soul.

They broke apart. He stood there, his breath coming in short gasps and his body tense. If that kiss didn't work then her eyes would have to.

I love you. Please forgive me for what I did. I'm so sorry.

But it obviously didn't tell him everything. He was letting her go. She looked deep into his eyes. She saw the guilt at the pain he thought he was causing her, and the heart-breaking pain of letting her go.

He slowly started to work off, sobbing uncontrollably. Her eyes followed him all the way. His shoulders were hunched and his hand was covering his disfigured face. All she wanted to do was take him in her arms and let her heart out.

But she couldn't. Not with Raoul there. It would break his heart.

Raoul had been so kind to her, ever since they were little. There would always be a place in her heart for him. But she didn't feel the same passion with Raoul as she did with her Angel.

Christine could feel Raoul's eyes on the back of her head. She turned around and smiled at him. He had risked everything to save her, and she would always be grateful for that. She was sure that they would be happy together. But she would never get over that longing for her Angel.

Christine slowly walked over to Raoul and untied the rope. She went to kiss him, hoping he would forgive her, but he backed away.

She stared at him for a few minutes, and then started to cry. Oh God, want had she done. She had hurt both of them. They both hated her. All their lives had been messed up. And it was all her fault.

Suddenly she felt Raoul's comforting arms around her. He did forgive her. She relaxed when she realised this. She would have to try to forget her Angel and make Raoul happy. Happiness was want he deserved.

Then he did something she didn't expect. He quietly whispered in her ear.

"If he ever hurts you, I want to be the first to know."

She broke away from him, looking him in the eyes. Did he really mean what she thought he just said? But she could see it there. He just wanted her to be happy.

"Oh Raoul…" She threw her arms around him, and sobbed into his shirt. "Thank you." She kissed him, making sure he did know that she would always love him.

"I love you," he said.

"I love you too." And she meant it. She truly did. And that made him smile.

"Go to him. He needs you."

She kissed him on the cheek and then went to find her angel. Well, one of her angels. For now she had two. And although she loved one with all her heart, she would never forget the other.
