Chapter 7

Paige couldn't get really any sleep because she was excited about the next day and on finding the Phantom, her secret admirer. She laid in bed, awake for what seemed like a day. Sleep wouldn't take over her at all. Paige looked over at Heather and saw that Heather had a smile on her face while she was sleeping.

Paige started pondering on what Heather must be smiling about. Then a thought came to her. Either she was smiling because she had that moron in her dreams or that she was excited about looking for the Phantom. (A/N: the moron is Andre)

"I can't wait for tomorrow either," Paige whispered as she fell asleep. Erik smiled when he finally saw her fall asleep. Erik carefully opened the mirror and crept inside the room. He looked over to see Heather sleeping in a sleeping bag. What is she doing in here Erik asked himself. He just shrugged it off and headed towards Paige.

He reached her bed and was in La La Land again. He couldn't believe he was this close to her again. He saw that there was a lock of hair on her face. He carefully pick up the piece of hair and moved it out of her face. Her face…oh her face was the most beautiful thing he has ever saw. He knew that if he had to choose between Christine or Paige, he'd choose Paige.

Erik then picked Paige up in bridal style and started to walk towards the mirror. He had to stop for a little while. Her being so close to him almost made him faint. He then felt her arms wrap around his neck. He glanced down to see her smiling. He started to smile from seeing her smile. Her being in his arms was intoxicating to him. Just her being around him was intoxicating.

What snapped him out of his little daydream was hearing the door start to squeak open. He rushed to the mirror, but tried to be careful not to wake Paige up. He got to the mirror and closed it just in time to one of the Chany boys pop in. He watched as the boy walked over to Heather then to Paige's bed. Erik saw that Raoul almost started to cry/tear because Paige wasn't there. Erik looked down at Paige. She looked to be so peaceful. He was now glad that he took her or Raoul would've been right beside her. Erik so despised the boy.

How did he know what room was hers? Erik asked in thought. He never seen or heard any Chany boys in his Opera House. Especially what happened so long ago. Anger started to fill him again. But he took a breath and was okay again. He situated Paige in his arms and was gone. While Erik was walking down the hall, he could hear Raoul trying to wake Heather up. Erik kept walking until he reached his destination: his home.

Back at Paige's room, Raoul was trying to wake Heather to ask her were Paige was. Raoul looked up at the mirror and saw that it was ajar a little bit. One thought crossed his mind: the Phantom. Why would he want her? Raoul asked himself. After that thought crossed his mind, he started to violently shake Heather.

"HEATHER! WAKE UP!" Raoul screamed. He stopped for a little while to see Heather starting to stir. He saw her open her eyes and noticed that she was about to scream, but he covered her mouth with his hand.

"Who are you? What are you doing here? Where's Paige?" Heather asked Raoul.

"I'm Raoul de Chany. I wanted to see Paige and talked to her, and I don't know where she is. I came in here to talk to her and I walked over to her bed and she wasn't there. But then I noticed that the mirror is kind of opened," Raoul answered pointing to the mirror. Heather sat up and looked at the mirror.

"Was it Him?" Heather asked Raoul. Raoul just shrugged his shoulders. Well that's helpful, you pansy Heather thought. Heather started to kind of giggle. Raoul just looked at her confused.

"Whats so funny?" he asked her.

"Nothing," Heather replied. You stupid Fop, of course it was him Heather thought.

"I think it was him, but I'm not sure," Raoul answered. Heather just rolled her eyes.

"Well, what time is it?" Heather asked yawning.

"Its um…5:00 am," Raoul answered looking at his watch.

"Well lets sleep for about…um…3 or 4 more hours then we can get up, get ready, and go and search for Paige," Heather suggested. She laid back down and once her head hit the pillow she was fast asleep. Raoul walked over to Paige's bed and laid down on it. He couldn't stand it that Erik had her. This time, you'll die Raoul thought. But what he forgot was that he couldn't kill him until Paige confessed her love for Erik. Which is because of the spell that Erik had the Gypsy put on him. Raoul fell asleep and dreamt of Paige and of holding her in his arms.

Erik had finally reached his home. He walked Paige over to the Swan Bed and laid her down in it. Everything was the same except the pictures of Christine were now pictures of Paige.

He walked out of the room and passed the little compartment thingy that once held the manikin that looked like Christine, but which now looks like Paige. He stopped in front of it and looked at it for a little while. Then he walked off into his music room to compose some music and to wait for his Angel to wake up.
