At rehearsal Devon was surprised to see Jeslyn, "Well, it seems as if Miss Sydell decided to join us at last." he said coldly. "I'm sorry, my mother got sick and I had to go see her." she explained. "Whatever, just get on stage," Devon said. That day's rehearsal was incredibly hard. Devon made them get through the entire second act. After rehearsal Jeslyn went and took a shower. When she came out from her room, her hair still wet, the cast had ordered pizza. She snuck and entire pizza and headed back toward her room. She then went down through the mirror looking for Erik. "Erik, Erik. Where are...AAAAAHHHHHH!" Erik had jumped out of nowhere, picked her up, and was spinning her around. "Put me down you big goof, I brought a surprise." They kissed. "What?" Erik asked curiously. Jeslyn went and picked up the pizza box, which she had dropped when Erik had picked her up. The pizza was unharmed. When she came back Erik picked her up and began walking to the lair. "It's called Pizza. It's one of the BEST foods ever! Here try some." Jeslyn took a slice and fed it to Erik. After he swallowed, "Damn. That's really good. Next time warn me before you try to stuff it down my throat though." They both laughed. All the way down they kept eating the pizza till it was all gone. "That was good." Erik commented as he put Jeslyn down. He grew sad for a moment, "I was waiting all day for you. I thought that maybe you wouldn't come back," he paused painfully, "I thought maybe it was all all lie. That you didn't really love me. Or that it was all a wonderful dream, and that I had woken up." Jeslyn smiled and took his hand. "I hate to be the one to break it to you, but I'm here to stay whether you want me or not." She smiled jokingly and have him a very long kiss. "Well, that definitely proves your point," he said. He then splashed water from the underground lake on her. She opened her mouth in shock from the cold water, "Oh no you didn't!" and she splashed him in return. This continued for awhile until Erik got sick of it. He picked up Jeslyn and threw her in the lake. When she came up for air, "And I just took a shower!" Erik laughed and offered his hand to help her out. She took it, but pulled him in instead. The first thing he did when he came up was make sure that his mask was still on. "Why do you worry about that thing so much. You know that it doesn't matter to me," Jeslyn said when she noticed the action. "Well, that's just because you haven't seen it," he responded. They both went and got out of the water. Erik went and changed and then brought a large shirt for Jeslyn to wear. "Much better," she said once she was dry. She looked at her watch and realized that it was two in the morning. She looked at Erik who knew exactly what that look meant. "Wait, before you go..." Erik went back to his room and came out with a small, flat box. He handed it to Jeslyn. "What is it?" she asked. "Just open it. I've spent awhile working on it, it's taken some time. I hope you like it." Jeslyn opened the box and gasped. "Oh my god, it's beautiful." She pulled out of the box a beautiful rose, but the rose have been covered in gold, preserved forever in a moment of time. There where still dew droplets on the rose. "It's so perfect!" Jeslyn gasped, she was still out of breath. "Only the perfect gift for the perfect girl," Erik replied as he pulled Jeslyn toward himself. She set the rose down on a ledge and they began to kiss, and I mean kiss. 20 minutes later. I told you they were really kissing, I'll bet you'll believe me now. Jeslyn went and put her shirt back on. They kissed one last time and Jeslyn headed back up. Erik also went to his bed to sleep. However, when Jeslyn entered her room, she realized that she wasn't alone.
