This is my first ever fanfic so be nice. It will begin down in Erik's liar where Christine must decide between Raoul and Erik.
Chapter 1 - The Point Of No Return
Christine's POV
Christine looked at Erik with tear stained checks as he taunted her by pulling the rope thus choking Raoul.How could someone she thought had so much love for her put her through this hell. He had really given her no choice but to choose him, after all she would not just stand there and watch Raoul be killed because of her. She put him in this situation and even though either way there would be no happy ending for Raoul she could not let him be killed by Erik. Erik shouted to her make your choice my dear or I will for you, as he pulled tighter on the rope. Christine couldn't help but at that moment think of Erik as a monster. She walked into the cold lake sending a shiver down her spine and waded through the water towards Erik. She stopped in front of him and looked into his emerald eyes and saw so much pain. Christine decided to make her decision then and pressed her lips to Erik's in a long passionate kiss that seemed to make time stop. She felt a tear run off of Erik's face and onto hers as she kissed him and thought of all he has been through due to his distorted face and what he has become.
Erik's POV
When the kissed ended Erik looked down at her and couldn't help but feel as if he were ruining her. When he looked into those soft brown eyes they seemed somewhat changed. They no longer held the innocence they once did and now held pain and anguish. He dropped the rope into the icy lake and turned away. Leave and forget all you've seen of the Angel in Hell. He dare not turn around but heard Christine make her way through the water to Raoul. He also heard them get into the boat and begin to make their way back to the world above. He just sat there on the bed where Christine once slept and listened to the tune of the music box as tears fell uncontrollably down his cheeks. Suddenly he looked up to see Christine standing there her cheeks still stained with tears.
Christine I love you...
Christine's POV
She looked down at Erik as his tears flowed so freely and felt as though he never looked more like a helpless little boy. Then she heard him sing to her those words still so sweet to her ears.
Christine I love you...
She felt the ring she held tightly in her palm leaving a red imprint of the design. She had intended on giving it to him to represent goodbye somewhat a bit of closure. She couldn't move but she felt the ring slip from her palm as she opened her hand at her side. She did not look down as she heard the ring hit the cold stone floor but instead kept her eyes fixed on Erik as he stared up at her. She had never had more in common or felt so much passion for anyone but him. She walked up to him and caressed the marred side of his face and he closed his eyes. She had to say something ... anything but didn't know what. She then knelt beside him and gently kissed his lips, which then grew into a more passionate kiss that made their surroundings and the current situation melt away. Nothing could ever affect her as Erik's kiss could and at that moment she realized it ... She loved him too much to just leave and never look back. She knew the real Erik and she knew she could never love anyone as she did him.
