A/N: First of all, I have become obsessed with Tenebrion (a phic), but unfortunately doubt that I will ever be able to match the style of that authoress. It's like dark, violent poetry, something of an acquired taste, but far too easy to sink into once you have.
Note: At this point I'm just plain playing around with the lyrics to suit my purpose.

:Kagome:
Once I had successfully dragged him to the roof, Hojo-kun immediately began expressing his feelings. In song.
Why have you brought us here? He asked.
We can't go back. I said bluntly, ignoring his feeble attempts at imitating the opera. His eyes will find us there.
Those eyes that burn? Hojo-kun offered.
I rolled my eyes. They hardly burned. And in this Labyrinth where night is blind the Phantom of the Opera is here inside my mind. I said dryly. Somebody had just died. I was hardly in the mood to participate in a pointless sung argument.
Hojo-kun, however, didn't seem to understand or share my sarcasm. Kagome-san, there is no Phantom of the Opera!
I groaned. Yes, there bloody well is! Deciding that song might get my point across better, I paused for a moment to think up lyrics. Erm, friend, I've seen him. I quickly cut myself off before I got too deeply entrenched in song. Opera does things to a person.
You could not possibly have! Hojo-kun said cheerfully. Because the Opera Ghost does not exist.
I sighed. Yes he does Hojo-kun! Who killed Mushin-san? It was the Angel of Music!
Hojo-kun looked as if someone had told him the Earth was square. In other words, completely, utterly confused. Kagome-chan, you aren't making sense. First you insist that the Phantom of the Opera killed that stagehand, next you insist this murderer is an angel.
I threw my hands up in the air. Hojo-kun would never ever understand anything beyond the simplest emotions. Look, he is both, all right? The Phantom of the Opera is the Angel of Music.
Hojo-kun blinked at me.
I tried to suppress a growl of annoyance, as I was forced into further song. Well, in his face, all the sadness of the world. And then his eyes, um, they both threatened and adored. I'm not making this up! I said defensively as Hojo-kun gave me a disbelieving look. And I heard, as I'd never heard before...
What you heard was a dream and nothing more Hojo-kun sang solemnly.
I said slowly. Do you mind if I scream?
Not at all, Kagome-chan. he said pleasantly.
I screamed my head off in annoyance. When I was done, I could have sworn I heard a faint whimper.
Kagome, Kagome...
I jerked uneasily. What was that?
Hojo-kun blinked.
I slumped weakly. Hojo-kun, you must think I'm delusional.
He gently patted my shoulder. Of course not, only a little confused. Now, no more talk of darkness.
I gave him a funny look.
Forget these wide-eyed fears. I'm here, nothing can harm you.
I blinked. Hojo-kun was confusing me. A lot.

:Hojo:
I just had to cheer her up! Kagome-chan was being so morbid! I continued my song. My fears will warm and calm you! All you want, is freedom. A world with no more night. And me, always beside you! To hold you and to hide you. So say you'll share with me one love, one lifetime! Say the word and I will follow you! Share each day with me, each night, each moment! Anywhere you go let me go too! Love me, that's all I ask of you!

:Inuyasha:
Anywhere you go I will kill you!

:Kagome:
To my embarrassment, Hojo-kun leaned in to kiss me. I turned away, but he turned with me ans crushed his face against mine. I was uncomfortably aware of Inuyasha's rose gripped in my hand. (Kikyo had given it to me, but I knew it was from him.)
I was utterly disgusted, and struggled to get out of his grip. Somehow, he had grabbed my arms. Ew, I did not want to be kissed by Hojo-kun!

:Inuyasha:
I looked away as he kissed her. I do not understand it. What did she see in him? A stupid, lousy fop! What did that craupaud think he was doing, stealing Kagome? She was mine, damn it! Where was that freak Viscount when her father died? Where was he when she was accepted into the ballet? Who dried her tears? Who sang her to sleep? I did!

:Kagome:
I finally managed to break out of his grasp. I finally gasped, running a little bit down the stairs. I spit on my glove and scrubbed my lips furiously.
Gross, fop germs.
I did not just think that.
Hojo-kun blinked at me from the top of the stairs. Little Lotte?
I sighed. Look, Hojo-kun, I can understand you trying to comfort me, but I would really prefer it if you did not kiss me. The Angel of Music will not like it.
he said gently, there is no angel of music. It is just someone playing a trick on you.
No! I screamed, covering my ears. Shut up! What do you know about it? You only just got here!
Hojo-kun frowned.
I was instantly ashamed. What was I doing? I was acting horrible. I looked up at Hojo-kun. He was every normal girl's dream. What was wrong with me, running away from him? He was my childhood friend too, if nothing else.
Say you love me. He repeated.
I...love you? I repeated hesitantly. Maybe I should just give Hojo-kun a chance, instead of always thinking of...Him. I felt nervous, thinking His name.
Hojo-kun eagerly ran towards me, but I put up a hand. Only no more kissing. I do not fancy it.

:Inuyasha:
Their scents had left. I walked out from behind the statue. Kagome's rose was lying in the snow. She had dropped it.
A clear sign.
I slowly leaned down and picked it up. The winds were strong, and they whipped my cape and hair around as I cradled the rose. I gave you my music, I sang Made your song take flight- and now, how you've repaid me. Denied me and betrayed me! I closed my eyes in pain. He was bound to love you, when he heard you sing! Oh, Kagome... I sobbed, burying as much of my face as possible into the flower.
Say you love me every waking moment-
I could hear the fop's voice in my head.
Say the word and I will follow you...
It filled me with unspeakable fury. How dare that little turd steal Kagome from me? How dare he!
Say you'll share with me one love, one lifetime...
I realised I was crushing the rose. I stood up and threw the stalk and bleeding petals away, running to Apollo's Lyre.
Scaling it was but the work of a moment for me, and once I was at the top, I threw my head back and bellowed with all my wrath YOU WILL CURSE THE DAY YOU DID NOT DO- ALL THAT THE PHANTOM ASKED OF YOU!

A/N: The dividers may not be there, but that is due to the switch to Mac. No time for review responses. Have dentist appointment. However...I SAW PHANTOM ON BROADWAY! YES! And lemme tell ya, Hugh Panaro rocks. I mean it. If anyone is interested, I called Hojo Raoul once this time "Ew! I didn't want to kiss Raoul!" then I went back and went "Crap!" and fixed it.

For all those worried, this story is NOT Hojo/Kagome. I personally believe there is enough R/C in the original Phantoms. We SO do not need fanfictions. E/C FOREVER! WHEEE!

Pardon my Leroux reference to Apollo's Lyre.
