A/N: I really do not like this chapter. I'm not sure why. It's more of a filer/ funny chapter. I hope I kept Meg in character. She has proved difficult to write, anyway let me know.
pinkichigomewmew: Thanks. I think Christine needs a backbone, if she's ever going to end up with Erik. Other wise he will continue to think of her as a child.
Clayphan16: Sounds good to me, though it would get boring if all I had was make out sessions. What am I saying! It would be great! –Erik jumps out with a Punjab Lasso (he's still mad at Christine), and I glance nervously at him- However I think my characters have different plans. Soon I promise! Soon!
unleashimagination: Thanks. I will! I just hope they stay civilized. Lol
bea: Thanks to you too. I will update as much as I can.
Phan: Thanks! And like I said I will update as much as possible!
Mrs.Butler: Did you get my e-mail? I'm not sure what's wrong.
RachErikaSam01: I know. Some stories I read I'm just like Erik/ Christine would never do/ say that. My biggest pet peeve though is when authors use modern slang in their stories. I try to stay away from it as much as I can, but tell me if I mess up. I'm glad you're getting anxious though. It makes me want to update faster.
xavilyn: Thanks. Christine is really ignorant sometimes! Ah well, she'll get better though don't worry. I agree with you about Erik for President. Maybe we should make a petition. LOL.

"Christine!" Meg squealed, running into Christine's room unannounced. It was a week later, and Christine had just gotten her bandages off. She had been enjoying lunch, with Erik's company. Meg's eyes widen with shock, when she realized Christine was not alone in the room.
"Meg! It's so good to see you," Christine said smiling. "I'd like you to meet Erik. Erik this is Meg."
Meg's eyes were transfixed on Erik's mask. Of all the people in the Opera House, the person who loved talking about the Opera Ghost the most, besides Buquet, was Meg.
"Pleasure to meet you Mademoiselle Giry," Erik said somewhat coldly, but with a hint of amusement in his eyes.
Meg blushed, realizing she was staring.
"I remember you from the Opera House. You seemed to have a habit about telling stories about me," Erik continued, his eyes glimmering.
"Yes. Um…. It's a pleasure to meet you." Meg said awkwardly.
"I must be going. I will see you later Christine. Nice to meet you Mademoiselle Giry," Erik replied smoothly. He stood up and left the room.
"That was the Phantom?" Meg asked awestruck.
Christine giggled. "Yes."
"I knew you were living in his house, but I didn't expect to see him," Meg whispered.
Christine just smiled.
"Maman should have warned me!" She continued. "I would have at least knocked, if I expected him to be in your room."
"Meg, what are you doing here? I didn't expect you," Christine said.
Meg immediately came out of her daze. "Oh. I haven't had a day off in a while, and this is my first day, so Maman told me to come visit you. She said you might be moving in. Is it true?"
Christine tried to smile. "I don't know yet. It would be awful small space for you, me, and Madeline in your room."
"Oh do say yes. It will be like we're sisters! But speaking of Madeline where is she?" Meg looked around the room.
"Your mother had her, so I could have a peaceful lunch with Erik," Christine said, a smile back on her face.
"It's so weird hearing you call him Erik. I never knew he had a name," Meg replied. "Maman never told me anything," She said, with a slight pout. "Christine," she said suddenly serious. "What… what exactly happened that night three years ago?"
Christine looked away for a minute. "Can we talk about this some other time?" Looking back at Meg she saw her open her mouth angrily. "I know I never told you, but not now. I will tell you eventually though. I promise."
Meg opened her mouth to speak again, but was interrupted by Madame Giry with Madeline. "I'm so glad you've calmed down Meg," she said.
Meg blushed, bowing her head in guilt. "You should have told me he was in her room."
"My dear, you didn't give me a chance! Before I could say more than Hello you were running up the stairs," Madame Giry replied.
Meg blushed brighter red. "You still should have told me," she mumbled.
"Did you feed Madeline?" Christine asked, holding her arms out for her.
"Yes," Madame Giry said giving Madeline to her mother. "And I changed her diaper."
Christine gave her a grateful smile. "Thank you."
"Oooo. Let me see her," Meg said walking towards Christine's chair.
"Here," Christine replied handing Madeline to Meg.
"Ohh. Look at how cute she is. She's grown so much since I saw her last," Meg cooed.
Madeline smiled, and gurgled happily.
"She loves the attention," Christine said smiling. "Though God knows she gets more than enough."
Meg grinned. "And she deserves every bit of it. Just look at how adorable she is. She looks just like you Christine."
Christine smiled proudly.
"You must be hungry Meg. I'll go get you something to eat," Madame Giry said exiting the room.
"Meg…?"
"Yes Christine?" Meg said absently.
"I have something to tell you."
"Hmm."
"Come sit down next to me," Christine said gesturing to the chair next to her.
Meg sighed and sat down, placing Madeline in the crib near by. "Yes."
"I think…I think I will be moving in with you. Not because I want to, but because, well, I need to," Christine said quietly.
"Christine that's wonderful!" Meg replied excitedly. "Is that all? You had me worried."
"No… I was thinking, I mean, I would have to get a job. And I was thinking that maybe I could go back to singing in the Opera House, or at least as a dancer," Christine said nervously.
"Christine, that's great. You would get your job back right away. Firman and André are desperate for more singers."
"What about the scandal? Are you sure they'd want me?" Christine said worriedly.
"They said before it was free publicity. And they need it. They haven't sold out for months," Meg reassured her.
"Are you sure?"
"Yes!" Meg said squeezing her hand. "Now I'm only here for one day, so lets have fun! Now tell me what is new."
For the rest of the day Meg and Christine talked happily. Or Meg talked happily as Christine listened, still thinking over sing at the Opera House again.
