Faye POV

I don't know for how long we cried…it felt like hours. Erik put his mask back on; I had grabbed it away from Lord Alex and held it close to my chest. Now he took it away from me and he pried my fingers from the mask.

Bubbling, mumbling, we both couldn't stop those tears flow. In the comfort of each other's arms and we wept. Erik stopped first, and he comforted me until I pulled myself together. He helped me up and escorted me as we walked. As we walked in silence until he began to talk.

Erik POV

"Faye- I enjoyed myself this evening." I said awkwardly.

"I…did…too. Erik." She answered

"I just thought it was…pleasurable." I said uncomfortably.

"So did I..." She answered me again.

"Faye, I wanted to tell you about my first love Christine…"

"Erik I'm sorry but you need to accept Christine is not yours. You need to move on. Yes, she will always be part of your life but now you need to let her go."

I just stood there, staring at the woman I have loved all along. Waiting for her to say the words I always wanted to hear.

Faye POV

"I don't mean to be unkind and uncaring Erik, I just worry about you Erik and I…" I was stopped by and ardent kiss by the man who I loved.

He gently grabbed my upper arms and pushed me back unto the stone wall. It was dark so I really didn't see really where we were anyway. His lips met mine as he applied light pressure to mine, before adding much more intensity to the kiss. His body crushed into mine and his hands moved all over me. I never felt so…so different, so alive in so many different places I never knew before. His hands moved me, arousing me in places I can't even describe. I felt my legs go weak then numb as his hungry lips moved down my neck. I noticed that my hands were moving around his body matching his bold caresses. I was breathless as he growled softly and he started grinding his body against my own. He did this which felt like forever and time lost meaning. I was enjoying this enormously.

He held me as close as he could, still handling me selfishly against the wall and he whispers these few words that helped me grasp back reality.

"Oh, Christine" "My Christine"

My eyes lit up, and I pushed him away from me.

And I ran. I ran away from him. I ran away from Erik. Far away and I didn't look back.

Erik POV

It took me five minutes to realize that I made a mistake. A dreadful mistake. Then I ran after her, praying to God that she'll forgive me.

Faye POV

I felt bad about running out on Erik, but it was for the best. I went to our room and back what little I had in my suitcase. I was on my way out the door, when Erik came in. He must've been running after me. We stood face to face with each other.

"Faye-" he said. He said that so lovingly. But I had to ignore it.

"Goodbye Erik." I stepped aside and began to walk past him until he closed the door.

"Faye-" he said it again. No. NO! I wasn't going to stand this any longer.

Then he forced me to the wall and I started to scream. He took off his mask and covered my mouth.

"STOP, STOP, JUST STOP IT FAYE!" I stopped. He scared me when he was angry. I didn't look at him, I couldn't look at him. Not even at his mysterious eyes I get lost in, or his face that held me spellbound with its beauty. After shoving me against the wall with every "stop" he grabbed my face to see him and said calmly

"Faye, don't leave me. You don't want to leave me. I don't want you to leave me. You are the only one who's loved me with this face. Please don't go, don't leave me alone. You won't leave me alone."

He knew it to. I wouldn't ever really leave him. I really liked him. Perhaps I did love him. But he was telling me what to do. And he had called me Christine. Christine!

"Erik I can't stay any longer. This is goodbye."

I pushed away from his tough grip and stormed out of the room and didn't look back.

I heard Erik roar in back of me

"YOU CANNOT HIDE FROM ME! I WILL FIND YOU!"

With that, I began to run again. Fast.

Sorry. I had to keep this short. Last one's was sooo long! Please Review! Thank you!
