Disclaimer: I do not own the phantom of the opera or any of the music I put in these songs, although I do change the words.
A/N: ok the first part of the singing is going to be from the actual Don Juan just some words are changed, but the main song was written by my friend Kathryn. I know I am using names from the movie troy, but I can't think of names.
During the opera every one was nervous. The managers were sweating like crazy, Erik was anxious for me to arrive, and Christine looked like she had seen a ghost. The opera was about how a young woman, named Adara, could make any man fall at her feet and worship her. She would then seduce the men and promise them that she would love them forever. After sleeping with them, she would break their hearts, by pretending to fall in love with another man, who would become her next victim. Helen was Adara and Erik was playing a man named, Achilles, who would be pretending to be caught up in Adara's games, but secretly knowing her tricks. He was going to trap her and sent her back to hell, but then when it's too late they both realize that they truly love each other. Helen and the chorus began to sing:
Here the highness may serve the dam,
Here the mistress takes her meat!
Here the sacrificial lamb utters one despairing bleat!
Poor young fool! For
the thrill on your tongue of stolen sweets,
You will have to pay
the bill-
Tangled in the winding sheets!
Sever the meal and serve the man!
Serve the mistress so that, when tables, plans and men are laid
Flames of Broken Hearts triumph once again!
Helen and the chorus quickly run off stage. My plan is in action! When Helen had gone back to her dressing room to change into her next costume, I locked her door quickly and tied her up. I put a cloth in her mouth to mute out all her screams. I quickly took her down to my lair to hide her there. While this was happening Erik's part and one of the other actors was happening:
Achilles (Erik):
Hector faithful friend, once again recite the plan
Hector:
That young girl believes you love her
Erik:
When we met, I used my charm, to make her heart race.
She believes, she seduces me, yet it's the other way
Furtively, we'll scoff and quaff, stealing what in truth is mine
When it's late and modesty starts to mellow with the wine
Hector:
You come home! Use your charms-slam the door like crack of doom!
Erik:
I shall say, "Come hide with me! Where oh where? Of coarse my room"
Hector:
Poor thing hasn't got a chance
I had made it just in time for my part. Hector had one more line to sing before I would go on stage. I placed my mask on, that I had stolen from Helen:
Here's your hat, your cloak, and sword. Conquest is assured, if I don't forget myself and laugh!
He laughed. The actor then walked off the stage while Erik hid behind the curtains. I took a deep breath. This was past the point of no return. I walked out onto the stage:
No thoughts within my head,
But thoughts of deceit
No dreams within my heart,
But dreams of ruining!
I sat down on a chair waiting for Erik to come out. There were whispers throughout the room, wondering why I was here and not Helen. I closed my eyes trying to block them out, when I heard Erik's angelic voice sing:
You have come here for my own company
In the heart of that wish,
Which till now has been granted
I have sang to you
In hopes that our passions may combine
To form one
In our minds you have already sung peacefully
It has pleased me
Completely filled me
Now you are here with me, no second thoughts,
You've opened your heart to me.
I open my eyes to find Erik standing there in front of me. He put out his hand for me to grab. I took it carefully. He helped me up and began walking me close to the front of the stage. He continued to sing:
At the bottom of my heart
I step back not sure if I am capable of doing this. He gently guides me.
No time to step back now
Our games of make believe have just begun to become real
He began to circle me.
Past all thought of hopeless things
I walk away not being able to look him in the eye. I thought I was able to do this, but I wasn't.
No use in turning back
Abandon plans and let your heart decide
He then grabbed my hand and pulled me into his arms. My hair becoming very loose
What will become of me?
He then rubs his hands all over my body making me want him more than anything. The fire in my belly and the throbbing between my legs is unbearable.
What desire unlocks your heart?
He rubbed his hands over my breast making my buds burst into bloom. He then whispers it, more than sings it:
What lies ahead of us?
He put his left hand on my shoulder and began backing me up against a wall used for the stage.
At the bottom of my heart
The final step, what warm unspoken secrets will we learn?
Beyond our deepest thoughts of love
Both of our breathing had gotten heavier. This song was too intense. It had been inspired by his song "Point of No Return". I quickly broke away from him and began walking towards the other side of the stage. I pulled back a few curls that had been released from my bun. My soul was burning for me to sing. I let the music take over me. That night I sang as I've never sang before:
You have sang to me
To that moment when words aren't important
To that moment when silence fills the air
I have come here for you
I stop walking and turn around to look at him. Begging for him to just take me away and end this madness.
I don't even know the reason why
In my mind I have already imagined us together
Now I am here for you,
Forever, forever
I start to walk back to Erik, walking seductively, letting my hips move with the music.
At the bottom of my heart
No steps back now
Our passion is now at last full
I unlocked my hair out of my loose bun, letting my curls fall past my shoulders. I take Erik's hands into mine and began to walk him towards the "bedroom".
Past all thoughts of hopeless wonders
One final question
I suddenly stop and turn around to look deeply into his eyes.
How long shall we both wait 'till we've become one?
I take his hand and have him caress my body, not caring if the audience thought I looked like a whore.
When will the passion take final speed?
I gently guided Erik's hands to my breast, letting him feel my hardened nipples.
The sleeping has been woken up.
He stroked my body up and down.
When will the flames devour us?
I let go of his hands and put my right hand on his shoulder, making him walk backwards. Both of us gave our heart and soul:
At the bottom of our hearts
The final step
I began to walk away; I was supposed to be pretending that I was caught up in my emotions, when in fact I really was.
The wall has been broken
He suddenly grabbed my hand and spins me once again into his arms; chest against chest.
That has separated us
We've past all thoughts of broken hearts.
We just stood there for a moment looking into each others eyes. My heart had been skipping wildly. Tears began to stream down my face behind the mask I wore. I love Erik and I knew he loved me at least a little bit. I began to sing desperately, hoping to win his heart.
Say you'll love me every single moment
Lead me through life
Say you'll want me with you here
Forever
Anywhere you go let m follow you
Erik, that's all I want from…
I was never able to finish singing "you", for Erik tore off my mask. Screams of horror and disgust filled the room. I looked at him, my eyes asking him "why". I pushed him away from me, he fell to the floor, and I then drew out a knife from my bodice. I cut the ropes and let it drop me into a trap door, ignoring the screams as the chandelier fell onto the audience.
