Disclaimer :I don't own anything of this except for the story that I have written.

~ Eli's P.o.v ~

It's been months since I've seen ….. HER. I've heard Jake disrespect her so many times. And I've heard cry so many times too. She doesn't deserve this. She doesn't deserve to be abused and disrespected just because I am a coward who doesn't want to get caught and leave Clare forever. And leave this world forever. I mean sure I'll be with my Mom and my Dad and Julia and Clare's father, but I need Clare by my side with me at all times. She's the only one who keeps me sane.

Every once in a while when Martin is too busy having his way with one of the dancers from the theatre I hum notes with Clare. It's the only way we still have a chance to bond. But every time it hurts me more and more knowing that I can't touch her. I can't have her to myself.

I hate myself for loving her so much sometimes. If it was any other girl I would be able to let them go, but not Clare Edwards. Not the girl I am madly in love with and want to make my wife someday. Not the girl I am willing to die for by coming out of this stupid cave to live a life with her.

WAIT. What? Did I just say I was willing to come out of my cave and die for her just so I could see her and touch her and kiss her once more? I did.

A smile came on my face.

Clare Edwards broke this curse that's been locked on me for so long. She got me to say I would come out and die just so I can have a moment in the real world with real people. A real moment with her.

I was ready to do this, but I didn't want to do this right now and do it in a boring way. Oh no. Elijah Goldsworthy does NOT do things in a boring way. He never has and never will. I am going to have my last moment with Clare the best way possible. The best way we bond. The best way we show our love to one another.

I'm going to share the lead in a musical show I will write for the moronic 'owners' to put on in the theatre on the most special night of my life.

My birthday. June 16th. This year it landed on a Friday. Perfect. Friday's were always the theatre's most busy night.

I will spend my last night celebrating my birthday on stage with the girl I love. And I would leave this world on the exact same day I was brought in.

Now I had to get busy writing music for the orchestra and lyrics for Clare and myself.

Hours later I made the list of songs:

Clare and Phantom – Little Lion Man ( Mumford & Sons)

Clare – Hometown Glory (Adele)

Phantom – White Blank Page (Mumford & Sons)

Clare – Nobody's Perfect (Jessie J)

Clare – Hurt (Christina Aguilera)

phantom – Secrets ( OneRepublic)

Clare and phantom – The Phantom of the opera ( from here on all the songs are from the movie.)

phantom – Angels on the moon ( except for this one is by Thriving Ivory)

Clare – Think Of Me

Clare and phantom – Angel of Music

Clare and phantom – All I ask of you / past the point of no return / Wishing you were somehow here again

Dear 'owners' of my theatre. Attached with this letter is a list of songs and the notes to all of them. This will be the last thing I do in this theatre, so I want it to be extremely special or else! Now there must be the best dancers on stage in the background, the best props must be on stage; I want real fire! , and Clare Edwards must share the lead role with myself. I will work with Clare personally on the songs to make sure we will both be ready. And Madame Cindy will be in charge of everything else. Show day is June 16th at 7 pm sharp. If anyone gets in my way of this show they will pay the price. I expect the best of the best from this. By the way rent is due. – written personally from the phantom.

I put the music and the note in a leather bag and got ready for the big ball tonight. It's time they see I'm real. And it's also time I see my angels beautiful face.

I also wrote Clare a note and put it in her dressing room, since I knew she would be getting ready for the ball.

To my beautiful angel Clare,

I have come up with a plan. You will understand later tonight. Meet me later tonight ALONE on the roof top. I must see you. I love you with all my heart and I will see you soon. – With love your Angel of Music.

I then picked one of my black roses and put a red ribbon around it. The way I always do when Clare is either performing or about to something big is about to happen.

I had gotten dressed and combed my hair for tonight. I had one last thing to do before I finally went out into the real world. My mask had to cover up the scar on my face to prove that I was Elijah Goldsworthy. Soon to be charged as guilty when the truth is I was innocent of the crime.

~ Clare's P.o.v ~

I said goodbye to Jake after kissing him for a while. I had to make him think I was actually starting to fall for him so he would stop abusing me and threatening me. I was surprised it worked. I think he's actually in love with me.

I walked into my dressing room and locked the door so nobody would bother me. I enjoyed the peace and quiet. I haven't had this for a long time. I looked around my room to think of all the memories I've had in here.

I then noticed something. I saw the famous envelope of my dear Phantom with his rose next to it. I quickly opened the envelope and read his note

To my beautiful angel Clare,

I have come up with a plan. You will understand later tonight. Meet me later tonight ALONE on the roof top. I must see you. I love you with all my heart and I will see you soon. – With love your Angel of Music.

I started to get teary eyed. God I missed him so much.

I freshened up my face and got dressed then met Jake in front of the theatre. We shared a smooch and then entered the theatre. We started dancing together and then all of a sudden the music stopped and the lights went dim on everybody but Jake and I. What the hell? I thought.

What's going to happen next? Review please!
