I do not own the Phantom of the Opera. I only own Tiffani and Lexi.

Story start

As Tiffani got farther away from the stage and deeper into the opera house, she let out a sigh of relief. "Just needed to get away from everyone for a bit," she thought as she remembered how much people have been watching and chaperoning her around. "Makes me feel like a kid that's done something wrong," she thought before she took a seat at a couch in the hallway that she was standing in.

She rested for a while on the couch with her eyes closed. She was feeling better now, her head was healing and so was her throat, but she was annoyed by the fact at how tired she still got. "Just ready to feel like my normal self," she whispered before she felt something light fall into her lap. She opened one eye and saw a red rose with a black ribbon sitting in her lap. A small note was attached to the ribbon.

"My apologies, I was blinded by obsession and rage," she read and looked around, but she did not see anyone. "Thanks for this, but next time you're angry, don't choke me. Anyways, I'll forgive you if you step out right now and show yourself to me," she said as she stood up from the couch with the rose and note in one of her hands.

A few moments passed before a figure slipped out of the shadows. Tiffani looked straight into the man wearing the white mask in front of her. Her face was stern before she gave a small smile. "I forgive you," she said softly before she smelled the rose with a bigger smile. "And thanks for giving me my favorite flower," she said showing him her smile again.

"I will not show my anger towards you again when I am angry at another," the Phantom said before giving a bow.

"Sounds good to me," Tiffani said before she looked towards where she heard Lexi singing again. "And what about my friend being the lead?" she asked and looked back at the Phantom.

The Phantom was silent, as he took looked at Lexi, who was performing well on the stage. "She will not be bothered," he said and Tiffani smirked.

"Well that's even better because it would not end well for you or anyone else in this opera house if you bothered her. You incurred her wrath after you hurt me. Trust me, she looks all nice and sweet now but she can go all fire breathing dragon ready to rip you to shreds in no time if you anger her again like you did earlier this week," Tiffani answered before twirling the flower between her fingers.

"I appreciate the warning," the Phantom said before he went to disappear. Tiffani saw this and quickly grabbed his cloak.

"Wait, did you really think a little flower is going to make me fully be happy with your apology after what you did?" she asked with a sly look.

"Most women happily accept a flower as an apology," he said with a confused look.

"Most women, that's the issue here, I'm not like most women. Anyways, I vote you show me a secret tunnel that I do not already know about in this place so my friend and I can cause more mischief," she suggested while her mind went over all the trouble she and Lexi could cause with the knowledge of more secret tunnels.

The Phantom was silent before he actually let out a chuckle. "If my guess about you is correct so far then I think you will have more enjoyment from finding the tunnels on your own," he said and Tiffani pouted at him before rolling her eyes and sticking the rose in her hair.

"Well I already found the mirror tunnel so if I cannot find any others then I will just bug you until you tell me. Well hope you have a nice day, I'm hungry so time to find some food," she said with a shrug before smiling and waving at the Phantom. The Phantom stared at her for a moment before he disappeared back into his secret passageways.

"Food, food, food, where are you?" Tiffani called out as she walked around the opera house, which is where Lexi found her soon enough.

"Are you calling for food like it is a kitten?" her friend asked and Tiffani nodded before hearing Lexi laughing.

"I do not think the food is going to meow back and answer you," Lexi said before patting Tiffani on top of the head.

"I'm not a dog," Tiffani said with a pout as she swatted the hand away.

"Then why do you usually sniff out the food before you see it?" Lexi asked with an eyebrow raised and her hands crossed across her chest.

"Because my nose has a mind of its own and does what it wants to do," Tiffani said seriously before screaming in joy when she finally smelled food and took off running down a hallway.

"Don't run, you're still hurt," Lexi yelled back in frustration after she chased after her friend.

"I feel as good as new," Tiffani yelled back before she slipped on a wet part of the floor. She scrambled up and looked sheepishly at her friend, who was glaring at her. "See, just fine," she said before disappearing into a doorway where the smell of food was strong.

"Right, just fine," Lexi said with an eye roll before she heard Tiffani screaming.

"Food, glorious food, how I have missed you," Tiffani was screaming when Lexi entered the room. A cook was standing in the corner looking scared as he held a ladle in front of him as a weapon to keep Tiffani away from him.

"You ate about thirty minutes ago," Lexi said with a laugh before she took a seat at the table across from her friend.

"If the stomach says feed me then I must obey," her friend said before she happily ate a bread roll.

"Is she a monster?" a waiter whispered to the cook before bread rolls and green beans that were thrown by both Lexi and Tiffani pelted him.

"Enjoy your meal," the cook said quickly as he drug the waiter out of the room and left the two girls alone.

"Plan on it," Tiffani said as she handed Lexi a glass of red wine.

"I still have practice after this," Lexi said eyeing the wine that her friend was already happily drinking.

"Well then give it back, no need to waste good stuff," her friend said and Lexi pulled the wine closer to her.

"No, my wine," Lexi said before sticking her tongue out at Tiffani.

"That's what I thought," her friend said before laughing, which earned her a bread roll thrown at her face, which she caught with her teeth.

"You can still surprise me with your strange antics some times," Lexi said before she enjoyed her meal and the wine.

"Practice time," the owners yelled as Lexi and Tiffani entered the room containing the stage. "Ah there is our singer," they said together and Lexi just gave a small smile before glaring at Tiffani.

"Twinkle, twinkle little bat, I wonder why you have a cat," Tiffani was singing goofily as she was stumbling just a bit.

"You just had to drink two bottles," Lexi hissed before setting her friend down into an audience seat.

"It was yummy," Tiffani said before hiccupping. Lexi rolled her eyes with a small laugh before she went on stage. "Nap time," she whispered before she fell asleep and ignored the world around her.
