It was the last day of the season. Christine would be singing the finale or would she? Meg had overheard Raul and Erik make a bet. I Christine sings hen she and Gustave would stay with Erik. If she didn't they would leave with Raoul.
Meg knew that Christine would sing. She loved Erik. As usual Meg clung to the shadows and watched Morgan tell their mother about the show. Morgan finally saw the look on her mother's face.
"Mother what's wrong?"
"Meg, sweet fool, you did all that you could."
Meg balled her fists. How could her mother do that to them?
"Charming, bright and yet still not enough" Madame Giry continued.
"What? What do you mean?" Morgan said with fear in her voice.
"How you danced, they're all entranced, yes. All but the one whose entrancement we sought."
"He wasn't there?" Morgan cried.
"Where poor girl, do you think that he was?
Yes, that's right, in with her all along"
"With Christine?"
"Dreaming of their child, they're love!
Too smitten to give you one moment of thought-"
"But you said-"
"All that you gave him, it's all been a waste-"
"You're wrong!"
"All that you've done it has all been erased!"
"Don't say that!" Morgan cried.
"Now he has them, as for us, we have both been replaced."
"No!"
Before the Performance
Christine was deciding weather or not to sing. Raoul, Erik, and Madame Giry were all hoping that the night would go as they wanted. As for Meg, she wanted Christine to sing. She wanted Christine and Gustave would stay with Erik. Then Meg would have her best friend back and Erik would be happy.
Just then the curtain began to go up. Meg held her breath. The curtain revealed a smiling Christine. Meg sighed with relief.
Christine began to sing.
"Who knows when love begins?
who knows what makes it start.
One day it's simply there, alive inside your heart."
