The next few days Emily had been with all the other cast members and Dr. Lenhserr at rehearsal. She and Matthew had become close friends. Matthew Kregan was a super, kind person he no longer had his blonde hair but Emily thought he looked much better with the Dark brown hair. Emily was sitting down in the auditorium's seats looking upon the stage; that was lit by stage lights. She was the only one there; she usually got there later because everyone knew she knew her lines and so on. Emily sighed and closed her eyes; her crush on Dr. Lenhserr wasn't getting any better. In fact it was getting worse she didn't like the fact that he was so handsome and that he could send shivers down her spine just by speaking in his velvet voice. Emily wore his sweater every night. It still smelt of him; it smelt like fresh rain and something strong, so strong that it was so masculine and it just made Emily smile as she experienced the fragrance of the black charcoal sweater. Emily opened her eyes when she heard the chair next to her squeak a bit. Emily looked over and saw Dr. Lenhserr looking off to the stage.

"It's kind of extraordinary isn't it...to see a stage so bare?" Erik's voice velvety and gentle to her ears. Emily kept a straight face very businesslike.

"Yes I agree, it's almost as if your heart begins to race just to look at it, wondering what could be in store in the nearby future" she smirked at her words. Ha he thinks I'm talking about the stage!!

"I can't help but ask…how did you get in here?" he asked her still looking to the naked stage. Emily bit her lip.

"Would you be mad if I said I broke in?" Emily asked him, still not looking to him no matter how much she wanted to she remained calm and strait forward.

"Not at the least" Erik smirked as he heard what she had said.

"Well then I broke in" Emily smiled and gently took a strand of her long brown flowing hair and tucked it behind her ear. Erik smiled faintly and then looked to her.

"So I see you and Mr. Kregan have been getting along…there's obviously no tension or awkwardness when you two kiss" Erik spoke talking about when Lady Macbeth see's her husband for the first time since the war. Erik despised that scene; it used to be his favorite but considering he was a bit jealous of Matthew it was now his least favorite scene. Any scene with Matthew kissing all over Emily made his fingernails claw at the arm of the audience chair.

Emily nodded to Erik but still didn't look to him. "Yes we have become close friends but…nothing more than friends." Emily said making it clear to him. Obviously saying that she was still single. Erik smirked slightly.

"Does he know that?" Erik asked her his voice once again sent a shiver down her spine. The tone wasn't harsh or cruel but it had a since of dominant power. Erik leaned over close to her and looked to her beautiful gentle face, a bit scarred but it just made her all the more beautiful. Look at me Emily…turn to me so I can capture your gentle lips with my own- Erik's thoughts were disturbed by Matthew Kregan who cleared his throat to make Erik turn. Erik let out a small growl that Emily smirked about.

"Dr. Lenhserr…Hi ummm we're ready for rehearsal whenever you are" Matthew stepped aside to reveal the rest of the cast. Matthew was a bit aggravated with Dr. Lenhserr seeing as how close he was to Emily. Matthew clenched his fists hard behind his back in order to stay calm. Fir Lenhserr simply just stared at the cast as if they were the most unentertaining thing on earth. The longer Erik stared the more aggravated Matthew had become. Then Emily stood up and started towards her colleagues.

"Come on guys we know what to do" Emily said to them and then was able to get them to follow her and get to work on everything. But Matthew stayed where he was in the death glare that he was giving Dr. Lenhserr stayed on his strong bold face. Then again Erik didn't move from where he was either. The two were secretly trying to read each other's minds.

Emily noticed the disturbance and then went back over to Matthew. Gently putting her hands on his strong arms; the arms that held her when they kissed in practice for the play. This action brought Matthew back to reality; His green eyes looked upon her dark wondrous eyes.

"Come on Matthew…lets go practice the scene where Macbeth comes back to his Lady"

Emily said gently to him and gently pulling him until he willingly walked down the theater isle with her. The reaction Emily was hoping for from both men made her smile. For while Matthew was obeying to her every whim, Erik was growling and clawing at the arms of his chair wanting to take out anything in his way to have what he wanted.

Emily got onto the ground onto her knees looking to the ceiling as if calling to God above to make her a sacrifice, he body shaking and shivering, her hands clenching into fists till when she looked up and saw Matthew standing about ten feet away. A smile of thankfulness spread across her face like soft butter on bread. Slowly getting to her feet, gracefully her arms still out. Her words gently rolled off her tongue.

"Great Glamis! Worthy Cawdor!Greater than both, by the all-hail hereafter!" Emily said excitedly toward the end of her line then rushed into Matthews's arms passionately kissing him, holding him and pulling him down to her lips as she held the back of his neck with one hand as the other on his gentle cheek. Matthew held her close to his own body as he kissed her then as she pulled away kissed gently all over her face and neck as she spoke. "Thy letters havetransported me beyond
This ignorant present, and I feel now
The future in the instant." Emily said in moans of pleasure to what Matthew was doing, for she knew it was part of the play but how much she enjoyed his kissed upon her pale gentle face.

Erik twitched and fidgeted anxiously in his seat in the audience chair. Growing jealous with every single moment that passed by. Moments that could not be taken back from the hands of time. Erik had to excuse himself from the theater and go outside for fresh air. He growled angrily and tore at his now messy hair.

Oh the things she does to me! How can she make me so jealous!? Why should I even care for her she is nothing more than the same being as myself and-

And once again Erik's thoughts were interrupted by another person.

"Erik enough" Charles growled, suddenly appearing next to the man. This made Erik spin around and looked face to face with Charles. Charles was staring daggers at his dear friend and that was not a good sight because that meant Charles was frustrated or angry and that's never a good thing.

"Ch-Ch-Charles, Wa-Wa-What are you-"Erik gulped hearing Charles voice now in his head.

Erik enough is enough! The thoughts you have about eliminating the competition! Charles boomed in his head sound like an angry god.

What have I told you! Stay out of my head!

You think too damn much your thoughts suddenly become mine! Along with the girls! YES! She likes you! She's trying to make you jealous! And she's doing a damn good job of it!

Really? Erik gave a look of amusement, causing Charles's death glare to become even harder.

"Straighten up your act, I don't care what you two do but if you keep thinking of harming Matthew I'm going to kick your ass!...Got it!" Charles said in a harsh whisper. Causing Erik to gulp, Charles had never resulted to threatening him ever knowing that the fight could be a blood bath. But even still Erik slowly nodded his head and then watched as Charles walked past him and continued to walk down the street.

Erik bit his lip and then smirked. "Well jealousy no longer for young Matthew is just a toy that is no longer needed in her life…" Erik said low to himself then turned on his heel and began back to the theater.
