A month later the wedding bells were ringing. Christine and Erik got married in the opera house on the stage. Many guests appeared to finally get a look at the opera ghost himself and his bride to be. Christine wore a beautiful white dress which Erik crafted for her. They wanted their wedding to be different than anyone else's. They sang their vows and at the end of the ceremony after speaking their I do's they kissed. They were more in love than ever. The after party was elaborate. Christine told everyone to wear masks. It was splendid Erik felt the same as everyone else. Meg and Raoul danced the night away. At the end of the reception Meg ran towards Christine.
"Christine…Christine!"
"Meg… what is it, are you okay?"
"I'm great, well I'm more than great!"
"What happened?" Christine was in shock. Meg began to stutter. Then finally the words came out.
"Raoul, he asked me to marry him!"
"Meg that's wonderful!"
They talked for awhile, then hugging Meg Christine said goodbye and returned to Erik. They took their last dance and the reception was over. They said goodbye to all that came and thanked them for the lovely wedding gifts. They sat there when everyone was gone.
"It was beautiful!." Christine said picturing the night all over in her head.
"Yes it was, I'm glad you enjoyed yourself."
"We weren't the only ones who enjoyed ourselves."
"That's true many people were dancing and having a great time."
"Yes, but that's not exactly what I was talking about."
"What do you mean."
"Tonight Raoul has asked Meg to marry him, and she agreed. Isn't that wonderful an engagement at an engagement party! They're going to announce it tomorrow but Meg wanted me to be the first one to know. Isn't wonderful how things work out."
"Yes it is. I'm happy for them, and us. My beautiful bride would you let me have the honor of one last dance?" Christine smiled grabbing his hand. There was no music so they made their own. It was beautiful. More than that it was bliss!
