Chapter 7-Bad Situation
Disclaimer: Do Not Owe Phantom Of The Opera!
Soul of power: hey, hey! Did you read the note at the very end? Heh, I was too lazy to check the misspelled words and I might be lazy again in this chapter since I hate looking back. Well anyways, here it is...oh yea, this is going to be in Christine's Point Of View. Just a little change that I want to try.
I woked up yawning as the sun was shining through our bedroom windows. I looked at my left and saw that Raoul's place was empty, I checked the time and saw that it was nearly seven. I sighed, I got out off bed as I dressed and I saw Raoul in the kitchen making breakfast for me and Blaire.
"Good morning," I said smiling as I went over to him and hugged him from behind. Raoul sighed as he leaned into my touch, "where are you going today?" He asked as he turn to put the plates onto the table. "Going to visit Annette and Meg at the opera house," I replied as Raoul stared at me, "I can't go," he said quietly as I blinked and I heard Blaire coming down to breakfast a few minutes.
"Morning mama! Morning papa!" She exclaimed as Raoul went to go and hugged her and he kissed her on the forehead as he helped her sit on her chair. "How was your night angel?" I asked as Blaire looked at me with a smile, "fine mommy. Are we going to go and see Auntie Meg and grandma Giry?" She asked.
I tried not to laugh as she called Annette 'Grandma.' "Of course young one. You are coming, right Raoul?" I asked as Raoul looked at me, "I have some family matters to do my love," he said quietly. "What about?" I asked as Raoul sighed, "I guess I can't keep it away from you huh? My brother, Philippe wants to discuss about our father's death last night," Raoul said slowly.
"Your father's death?" I asked surprised, "yes. I just gotten a letter from Philippe this morning about our father," Raoul said. "Perhaps I should go with you then," I said as Raoul shook his head, "no. It's going to be quite boring for you and I'm sure you'll be more happier with Meg," he said as I looked at him.
"Are you sure?" I asked as Raoul nodded and I sighed as we began eating our breakfast.
The carriage dropped me and Blaire off as we waved good-bye to Raoul as we entered the opera house together. I found Annette right away as she was just finishing her instructions to the ballet dancers, "Annette," I said as Annette turned around and saw me and Blaire. "Christine, where is Raoul?" She asked looking around.
"Family business," I replied with a shrug as Annette nodded, "child, do you want to go and see Aunt Meg?" She asked Blaire who nodded smiling. I frowned as Annette looked at me, "Erik is waiting for you in your dressing room. His been their for hours," she said as I nodded and I watched Blaire follow Annette to see Meg.
I opened to the door of my dressing room slowly as I found the room was dark and I opened the lights and saw Erik sitting on the stool waiting for me as he stared at me. "Erik," I said slowly as Erik smiled, "your husband isn't with you?" He asked as I shook my head. "Business for family," I murmured as Erik nodded, "what is this about a divorce?" He asked as he gave me a rose tied with a black ribbon around it as I smiled.
I sat at another chair as we were both facing one another. "I feel like we are drifting apart you know? After Blaire was born, he was nice and gentle, but now," I didn't finished as a tear came down from my eyes, "his treating you like a small child again, isn't he?" Erik asked as I nodded slowly.
"I knew I should have killed him the day he found my lair!" Erik said angrily as I shook my head, "you didn't know Erik. It was my fault for not noticing it right away," I said. "No Christine. I knew that very night when I saw you with him on top of the rooftop that something was wrong," Erik said as I stared at him surprised.
"You were their?" I asked as Erik nodded slowly, "I had to find you to see if you were safe since the opera house was burning, remember?" He asked as I nodded. We stared at each other for a moment as we were standing up, without knowing why, we began to move closer to one another as I felt Erik's lips against my lips and before knowing it, we were kissing each other passionately.
I deepen the kiss as we didn't heard the door opening quietly, "mommy?" A voice asked quietly as we both stopped and my eyes went wide and I saw Blaire staring at us shocked. Before I knew it, I saw Blaire running out as she called out for Annette. I cursed silently as I stared at Erik who nodded slowly, I went after my daughter as I knew she has to keep this a secret from Raoul since things were going to be bad if he finds out.
