It has been a week since Danielle had pulled off Erik's mask and Miss Giry came down to check on her. She check Danielle ribs then her forehead. "Danielle, I have good news. Your ribs healed nicely and you head is looking much better. I think you would be able to go home tomorrow." Erik, who was standing behind Miss Giry, marched away at the news. Miss Giry turned and watched with confusion as he left. Then she turned back and saw Danielle looking down. "What was that all about?" asked the elder women. "He wants me to stay with him, but I can't."
Miss Giry sat on the bed, "Erik, he had a tough life before he came here. He's alone, he longs for company but don't fell bad if you must leave. I know deep in heart, he will understand." Danielle nodded her head, but then started to cry." I don't want to leave, I truly don't. Erik showen me more kindness and love then any other person I know. But I can't stay, I need to be with my little brother, I'm not leaving him alone with my father. But I will come back." Miss Giry nodded her head in understanding "I'll leave you two alone tonight then, it was a pleasure meeting Danielle." Then she got up and left.
Danielle slowly walked out of the room, she saw Erik sitting at the piano with his head in his hands. She slowly walked over to him she stood beside him. He looked up at her with sad eyes, "Don't leave me." Danielle took his hand "I wouldn't leave you, but I have a family to watch out for." Danielle lead him to the bedroom. "But let me prove that I will come back for you." She lead him to the bed and started taking off her clothes. Erik watched her then did the same, then she lend in a kissed him as the fell back in bed.
The next morning, Erik laid in bed watching Danielle sleeping, she was his angel. Danielle slowly woke up and saw Erik infront of her, wearing no mask. Danielle took her hand and touched his cheek and smiled. "Good Morning." she said cheerfully, but Erik frowned knowing that she was leaving. "Erik, I promise I will come back." He touched her face "Will you?" Danielle nodded her head "Of course I will, I love you." Erik took her hand and kissed it. Danielle sat up, but Erik pulled her back down "Stay a little longer." Danielle laid back down and they stared at each other as they laid in each other company.
Three months later, Danielle was sitting in her home reading a news post, which said ' Mysterious happening at the Opera Populaire. The back stage crew said that they heared something in the rafters, but when they went up there, they said they found a note, from a Mysterious man. But they call him the Phantom of the Opera.' Danielle gasp when she heard this and she said "Erik" under her breath. He father looked at her "What did you say, tramp?" she just shook head "I didn't say anything." Then Marice went back to his drink. Christopher then came into the room and motioned to his sister to come. Danielle got up and followed him.
They where outside, "Lets leave this place, leave Paris. Never come back." Danielle looked around and shook her head "I can't." Chistopher grab her fore arms "Come on, Danielle. We can start a new life. You will meet someone just like him." Danielle started to cry and shook her head "I can never find someone like him." Christopher looked at her with pleading eyes "Come on, Elle. Do this for me?" Danielle looked at him with no expresstion, then she nodded her head "Okay, we leave." Christopher kissed her cheek "Your the best." Then he went back inside, Danielle crossed her arms over her chest and closed her eyes to stop the tears. "Oh Erik."
