I know it has been almost forever since I have updated. A lot has been going on in my life right now and it hasn't left me much time to write. But you can all be happy now because another scene is here.

This is dedicated to Nutters - The one who always took the time to read my fanfictionsm always stood beside me and always gave me the most support. I love you Nutters...always and forever. RIP.

This takes off right as the curtain falls on Spectacular Spectacular. Yes it is Satine's death and if there are any of you who are like me and like to stop the movie and pretend she doesn't die, then I suggest you skip this chapter. If not then I hope you enjoy it and that I receive tons of reviews!


I can't help but smile as I hold her close to me. Is this really happening? I can't believe the joy coursing through my body. She is mine, free of the Duke and the Moulin Rouge. She loves me and we can be together forever. I clasp her hands tighter, listening to the crowd applauding from the other side of the curtain. Nothing could dim the happiness inside of me, now that I have Satine back again.

STAGE MANAGER: Stand by for curtain call! Dancers, positions please!

The feel of her kiss meeting mine makes my heart long to burst with love. Refusing to let her hand out of my grasp, I begin to walk over for curtain call. Something is wrong. She won't move and she is breathing heavily. I feel a deep sinking feeling of fear in my stomach as she falls, limply into my arms.

CHRISTIAN: Satine!

Her touch is as cold as the floor beneath us, as she shakes with coughs racking her body. I don't understand what is wrong, what is going on. Why is everyone just standing around and not helping?

CHRISTIAN: Satine, what's the matter?

The coughing won't stop. I know she can't breath and I feel as though I can feel her pain. What is wrong with her? Damn it...why is she in so much pain?

CHRISTIAN: What…darling…darling, what's the matter? Darling… Satine, what's the matter?

Her voice is so raspy and her breathing shallow. I want to just hold her and give her all of the air in my lungs. Anything to make this go away. What is that...

CHRISTIAN: God… Oh my God…

She's bleeding. I can't help but touch it, to make sure it is really there. Spilling from her perfect lips, the lips I have taken in mine so many times, is blood. I...I don't know what to do. She needs help...now!

CHRISTIAN: Somebody get some help!

ZIDLER: Hold the curtain! Fetch the doctor!

Harold's voice seems far off. All I can hear is Satine, her breathing becoming softer. She looks like an angel, so perfect and pure. God...I love her so much. Please, please don't take her from me now.

SATINE: I'm sorry, Christian…I…I'm…I'm…I'm dying…

No...it's not possible. Not when we can finally be together. You can't leave me Satine. You can't...

CHRISTIAN: Shhh…shhh…it's all right.

Watching her fight for breath, watching her slip away, it's almost more than I can bare. She'll be alright. She just needs rest. She is going to be ok. I need her in my life. She can't be taken from me now.

SATINE: I'm so sorry…

She's going to be ok. She's just a little sick. Overworked. She is going to get better and we will have our fairytale ending.

CHRISTIAN: No, you'll be all right. You'll be all right.

Please...God, let her be alright. We made it this far, we made it together. You can't take her from me now. You cannot take our love away. Our love...we fought through everything for our love. Please, please, PLEASE don't take it away now.

SATINE: Cold…I'm cold…cold… Hold me.

I hold her close but gently, feeling her body shaking from her fight for breath. It is almost as though I can feel her heart stopping. The heart that loved with all of it's might. The heart that I loved more than any other man as ever loved. She is my angel...my true love.

CHRISTIAN: I love you.

I love you, Satine. I can never express how much I love you. I love you so much and never want you to leave my side. I need you with me...forever.

SATINE: You've got to go on, Christian.

No...I need her too much. I need her beside me to give me the will to live. She's my muse, my strength, my life and my love.

CHRISTIAN: Can't go on without you, though

SATINE: You've got so much to give…

The touch of her hand on my face, so fragile and weak, is almost enough to break down the barriers holding back my tears.

CHRISITAN: Tell our story, Christian.

I can't hold them back anymore, and the tears flow. I know I am losing her, and I know that I cannot live without her. I cannot do what she is asking. I can't write our story, about our love, without her here with me.

CHRISTIAN: No…

SATINE: Yes… Promise me. Promise me…

I can't...Satine. I know I can't, even though I'm promising you I will. I don't know how to write without you here as my inspiration.

SATINE: That way, I'll…I'll always be with you.

You will always be with me and I will always love you. Forever.

I can feel her fading. She is leaving me faster than I can let her go. I touch her lips with mine one last time. They are cold and weak, but yet they are still filled with as much love as our passionate nights we spent together. I feel her body go limp, her kiss fall. As I pull away, looking into her dull, lifeless eyes, I know she has left me forever. The pain I feel is like a knife piercing through my heart. She is gone forever. No more dancing through the stars, or singing above the elephant. No longer can we spend afternoons just lost in each other in my garret. No...it's all gone. My life, my world, my love is gone. I cannot hold back the sobs that rack my body, breaking the silence around. The memories of our love are to much for me. My Satine...is gone.

As the sobs subside to silent tears one thought is clear in my mind. With her beautiful body still in my arms I make my finally promise. I will do as she asks. I will tell our story, for her. I will tell our of our love, and in doing that I will keep our love alive forever.


That's it. Yes I am still going to add more chapters, but this is the scene that meant the most to me. I don't think I did it even a bit of justice but I hope you like it. Please leave me your reviews and any suggestions of what the next scene should be. I will try to update it as soon as I can. Thanks all.
