I love you Andrea, Liz, Jeron, Diana, Hayley, Julie, Trevor, Brian, Jennifer, Kelsey, Ashleen, Isabel, Jessica, Abbie, Nathan, and if I didn't mention you then you have permission to slap me because I love you all, and your extremely special to me!

Anyways here's a new chapter! Read and review!

Editor's note- Okay, I am updating… mainly so people won't follow through on the death and rape threats (not kidding about them threats). Oh, and if you're going to flame at least know what a flame is… that is all.

Chapter 10- Another Vicomte and a Daae relative

Amber turned to her side and sighed contently. She knew that it was morning, she couldn't stand sleeping in.

Turning again, she opened her eyes and gasped. Chase was next to her and had an arm casually around her waist, pulling her closer to him, their legs entangled and her head resting on his chest. She blushed, feeling comfortable and yet embarrassed. It's not like anything happened.

Sitting up slightly without waking him, and contemplating how she was going to get out of this position, her eyes swept the large room.

She giggled when she saw Alex and Jennifer were cuddled up together, his arms around her. They made an adorable couple.

Then her head snapped to the stage where she saw what she least expected. A guy with longish, wavy, red hair, dark brown eyes, attired in a blue and dark blue striped scarf, a French artist hat, baggy jeans, held up by a belt, a white button-up shirt, and a black leather jacket (with the zipper pockets and everything).

It was Matt, Liz's older brother.

He waved at her with an insane smile then rolled his eyes smirking. ((He actually would do this. Editor- of course he would! He told me to go eat a cookie in my eye once…))

Amber opened her mouth and screamed, waking everyone up at six AM. Which was not going to go well with… well, anyone.

Chase's eyes snapped open and he jumped noticing the position they were in and grinned, making her scream louder, kicking him hard in the family jewels.

Liz sat up annoyed and looked at where Amber was now pointing like crazy, screaming "MATT!" Her brother smiled and waved happily while she grinned.

Nathan ran over to the side and then screamed like a schoolgirl "OH MY GOD! MATT!"

Ok, so he sounded like an insane little fan girl, maybe he was, but Matt was his idol. Matt was his hero. His obsession. Which is creepy, but still nobody cares and Matt, when he found out years ago just shrugged it off with, "I knew I was popular, but I didn't know I was up to worshipping status."

He was only second to Godzilla, Nathan's true hero. He's a strange one alright.

Liz ran down to her brother and hugged him. Everyone else gathered in a semi-circle around the two sleepily.

Liz stepped back suddenly and asked suspiciously, "Wait… WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN PARIS?"

Matt grinned and said, "Visiting my little sister."

Liz looked at him irritated and said, "No really. Why are you here?"

"Well, actually I was supposed to be going to England but then I got on the wrong plane accidentally, so now I'm here."

Liz rolled her eyes and said, "I should have thought of that. So what are you doing here at the opera house?"

"Well, let's just say there was a mime, a limo, and a queen. Now I'm inside of here." He says counting off on his fingers. Liz, again, rolled her eyes. Everyone except Chase and Alex sighed.

Liz didn't even waste time with introducing the two perverts. Everyone else knew him already.

"Crap!" Chase suddenly yelled, looking at his watch shocked. His mouth was in a 'o' shape and his eyes the size of saucers.

"What is it?" Amber asked, tilting her head to the side and letting some hair spill across her shoulder.

"The Vicomte De Lore is coming to visit me! He's one of my old friends and if he sees this place in a mess I will never hear the fucking end of it! Everything needs to be perfect!" He exclaims, cursing and starting to pace.

"Well, when is he going to arrive?" Liz asks before yawning loudly.

"In two hours!"

"Leave it to us." Amber says quickly starting to walk away.

Chase smiles and says, "Thank you."

"Anytime." Amber says smiling. Liz rolled her eyes and then skipped off to grab some towels and cleaning supplies.

Alex kissed Jennifer on the cheek and, with a wink before walking away, said, "I will see you at dinner my love. Meetings await me at the Eiffel tower."

Jennifer blushed and touched where he kissed her cheek, while Liz and Jeron snickered to themselves.

A few minutes later, Chase and Matt stood watching as everyone cleaned up the mess they created last night, while adding a little extra touch to things.

"So…are you like dating my sister?" Matt asks looking over to Chase with an older brother glare.

"Oh no. I am dating Amber. Actually we are engaged." Chase says with a warm smile in Amber's direction on the stage.

Matt raised his eyebrows and said, "Good. I won't have to beat you up then." Chase nods and then sneaks glances at the girls asses. Matt noticed this and they eventually got into a conversation about how to be a good pervert. Which was weird.

"Catch!" Amber said tossing Liz an old towel and wax.

"Thanks!" She said, starting to wax the floor, dodging the dust bunnies Jeron was running after with a duster.

Tiff turned on her CD player and blasted the sound, making Chase jump in surprise, then laughed, moving his head with the beat.

Another day is going by

I'm thinking about you all the time

But you're out there

And I'm here waiting

And I wrote this letter in my head

'Cuz so many things were left unsaid

but now you're gone

And I can't think straight

This could be the one last chance

To make you understand

Nathan grabbed Jeron's cell phone and called the cleaning service for the opera, and got a hold of four different maids that could get a lot done in two hours.

Amber patted the large red curtain for dust and cleaned a few spider webs. While Jennifer went around the opera house with Tiffiny cleaning up the food fight mess, whip cream dare, and the costume room.

Finally after the maids got their them where able to finish everything and get things sparkling clean.

"Ok, everything is perfect!" Amber exclaims looking around with a smile as everyone got back to the stage.

Chase looked around and gasped. The room was sparkling clean, the wooden stage floor shinned with pride, and even the great old chandelier looked new again.

"How the hell did you do this within 50 minutes?" He asked shaking his head with a small-exaggerated smile.

"Easily." Tiffiny says, rolling her eyes at him with a grin. Amber nodded.

Chase leaned over and kissed Amber's cheek before pulling back, looking business like saying, "Now please get dressed into something proper and grab the ballet rats- I mean girls. Today is their day to practice again."

"Do you want fries with that?" Amber asks smirking.

"Sure. Fries sound good."

"Ugh. Never mind."

They nodded and practically skipped off. Matt, with raised eyebrows, laughed at them quietly and then snuck off of the stage to explore alone.

"Whatcha think of this?" Liz asks twirling in her white corset top, gray and black striped arm warmers and long boot leg jeans over black combat boots that she bought right before they left for Paris.

"Uber cool." Amber says nodding.

"Fabulous!" Jeron says batting his long girly eyelashes.

"Cool." Jennifer says.

Nathan nodded and went back to looking for clothes.

Amber put on simple dark blue jeans, a tight black sweater, her converses, and a white scarf from her mini backpack she brought along.

Jennifer wore her dark blue jeans shorts, a red long sleeve shirt with Inuyasha on the front, knee high black and red socks, and her converses.

Tiffiny wearing her black jeans, white long sleeve with a band shirt over laying it, and her converses snickered as Nathan came out in a Darth Vader outfit, without the mask.

Jeron took his time and picked out his American eagle jeans, baggy dark blue shirt and black hoodie.

Coming out of the costume room, they snuck into the ballet girls dormitories which, for some reason, were still around and, using a large mega phone, woke them all up.

"Wake up!" Jeron yelled into it making sure to be right by the door to run if they got hostile.

Girls groaned, rolling on their beds glaring and yawned. "What the fuck?" says one girl in an American accent, with dark moose brown eyes, curly reddish brown hair that stopped at her shoulders, wearing a black t-shirt, and short-short shorts?

"Watch your language." Jeron says shaking his finger at her, making Liz and Tiffiny giggle as they watched.

"Bite me." She says giving him the bird as she swung her legs over the whitewashed sheet covered bed.

Jeron glares at her and puts one hand on his hip.

"God damn it. I told him he has to stop kidnapping me!" She yells, dropping her head into her hands.

"Is she on crack or what?" Tiffiny whispers to Liz, raising one eyebrow.

The girl looked up and said angrily, "Who the fuck are you talking about? Maybe I should ask you if your going out with that freak of nature."

"And who would that be?" Liz asks completely opening the door and stepping in.

"Chase Andre." She says annoyed.

"The manager? Wait are you…Oh my god."

"No, I am not god." She says rolling her eyes.

"YOUR CHRISTINES GREAT GRANDDAUGHTER!" Liz shrieked, her right eye twitching.

"So what if I am?" She asks with malice.

Liz taken aback for a second regained her perkiness and said, "COOL! I hate her!" The girl winced.

"Shut the door!" Yells a girl in the back of the room, annoyed with the light coming into the dark room.

"No can do everyone! The Vicomte is coming for a visit and we told Chase we would get you guys up!" Tiffiny says, going into the room too.

Suddenly all of the girl squealed with delight and started rushing around, practically stripping even though Jeron was in the room. Christine's great granddaughter sighed and pushed them out, closing the door behind her. A loud mass of high-pitched drunken giggles erupted in the closed room.

"Ignore them. They love the Vicomte for his money and looks. I'm Crescent de Chagny. Granddaughter of the famous Raoul and Christine de Chagny, yay for me." She says with a hint of sarcasm in the end.

"Who's the Vicomte? Is he like your brother?"

"He is a annoying bastard. And no he's my cousin." She says leading them around to the back of the stage.

"If Chase asks where I am, tell him I'm sleeping or something. I need to go out, get coffee, and see someone." She says sighing and flipping her brown hair.

"Sure." The three say.

"Though I might not be back for awhile." Crescent says slipping on a pair on tennis shoes, hidden behind some props, making her way to a door leading to a small exit in the back.

" Nice meeting you. But aren't you supposed to be like practicing or something?" Tiffiny blurts out.

"No. I don't work for the opera. Chase has been trying to get me to recruit since I was like three. I can't sing opera and I hate it anyways. I'm a Simple Plan type of person." She says with a long glance before leaving with a flip of her hair.

"Well, that was pleasant." Jeron says sarcastically. Liz and Tiff nod and start walking back to the stage, luckily making it before the stampeding ballet girls do.

Liz stopped in mid walk and gasped looking over to the man Chase was talking to.

He had dark brown hair that looked black, pale skin, beautiful dark blue eyes with long eyelashes, wearing a dark business suit.

A total tall, dark and handsome type, he could've been the one who created the look.

"Um, hello?" Tiffiny said worriedly waving her hand in her friend's face, making her snap out of it. Tiff was the only one not drooling over his Gerard Butler hotness.

"Huh? What?" She asks, looking around confused, then blushed when she noticed Chase and the other man coming towards them. Amber snickered, earning a kick from her friend.

"Let me introduce you all to the Vicomte De lore Chagny." Chase says ushering to the man.

"Hello." Everyone said in unison, except Liz, who was speechless. The Vicomte noticed this and gave her an earth shattering, Calvin Klein smile before holding his hand out to her.

She brought her hand out to shake his, saying, "Hi, I'm Liz." Instead he brought her hand to his lips and kissed it softly making her turn pink. ((Why are all the French boys charmers!))

"Mademoiselle Liz, you may call me Rick if you like. I know its not very French and sounds bland but I would think, if it came from an Angel's mouth, it would sound much better." Liz blushed even more and nodded. ((SEE!))

Amber elbowed Tiff and giggled. Liz never blushed or practically drooled over a guy. Except maybe Orlando, but that couldn't be helped.

"Come let me introduce you to our newest member Amber." Chase says nodding to her.

"Hi." Amber says shaking his hand smiling, a hint of crimson appearing on her cheeks.

"Hello." He says with an oblivious smile.

"How about we sit back and watch as they practice so we can discuss some things?" Chase says, giving a wink to Amber, making her eyes roll for the thousandth time.

"Chase don't be so formal. I'm here on a friendly visit." He said with a laugh before going to the front row.

"This is odd." Tiffiny says sitting down at the corner of the stage. Barely missing the insane ballet rats that ran on stage halfway dressed that started to dance.

"Duh. I mean how the hell did I get a job in the Paris opera house? How did we find this place! It's only been a few days but it feels like forever this place is so huge and such a mystery." Amber says throwing her arms out.

"I'll miss it here when we all go to college." Jeron says sitting down besides her.

"So will I. And most of all I'll miss you guys and everyone else." Jennifer says crossing her arms and sitting cross-legged.

"We'll always have each other." Amber says pulling her friends into a group hug. Nathan tried to escape but failed.

Outside of the opera

Matt with his hands in his pockets walked around, wondering what he was going to do next. He looked around the whole opera house finding it interesting, but very boring. Then something hit him, knocking him down, and he found himself looking into dark moose brown eyes that matched his own.

"I am so sorry! I didn't notice you! I was trying to make it to the next bus!" Exclaims the girl, getting up and dusting herself off.

"Oh, that's alright. I'm Matt, and you are?"

"Crescent. Sorry about running into you again." She says looking sympathetic.

"That's all right." He says almost blushing.

She nodded and flashes a bright smile.

"Are you doing anything tonight?" Matt blurted out suddenly.

Crescent looked him up and down and said, "Not in particular."

"Would you like to go out and eat?"

"Sure. That'd be great. Ummm here's my number." She says after digging through her pocket to find a slip of paper with her number.

"Thanks. Lets meet in front here. Seven alright with you?"

"Yeah. Perfect."

"Later then. Don't want you to miss the bus."

"Yeah later." She then rushed off to the bus, missing it but catching a cab with one long last smile in Matt's direction. ((Editor- … no comment))

Crescent got out of the cab a few miles away in front of a small penthouse and looked at it with a shiver as the cab rolled away. She dug through her pocket and pulled out a white envelope with a red stamp of a skull on it.

Sweat formed on her forehead as she stepped in front of the door and knocked softly.

A man who looked exactly like Rick opened the door and pulled her in quickly, shutting it and locking it.
