A/N: !Nothing own I, again
Sarah Wilkins **Fast forward to the next morning.** *I slowly wake up when I smell something hot and sweet coming closer to where I'm sleeping. I see Meg coming over with a plate of hot pastries and sit up, smiling* (Me) Good morning, Meg... (Meg) Good morning...how is he? *I look at GERRY phantom, and he's still sleeping* (me) about the same, I guess.. *Meg hands me the plate* Well, when he does wake up, we're right through there...*she points to a doorway, and I nod and thank her before she leaves again*
Christine Julia Destler *I also wake up and stretch before skipping cheerfully to RAMIN phantom's room. Knocks on door* Anybody home? *When I don't hear anything, I open door slowly and sees he's still asleep. I smirk and walk in quietly, walk to his bed and sits on it (without waking him up) and I caress his unmasked cheek, waiting for him to wake up*
Sarah Wilkins *I set the plate of pastries aside, then realize how stiff my back is from the position I had slept in. I slowly walk around to the other side of GERRY phantom and lay back to stretch out my back, and then I turn to face him before softly caressing his face. He stirs a bit before slowly waking up, confused.*
Christine Julia Destler *I watch as RAMIN phantom sleeps peacefully. I smile and kiss his cheek ever-so softly, then he wakes up, smiling back at me* (Me) Good morning, sleeping beauty... *I giggle and he chuckles* Good morning, Love. *He sits up and we continue talking for a while*
Sarah Wilkins *GERRY phantom slowly turns to face me* Sarah? How did... (Me) It's okay...we're safe now. Everything's fine. *He grasps my hand and pulls me close* Don't leave me...*he kisses my forehead before falling asleep again. I sigh and rest my head on his shoulder*
Christine Julia Destler *RAMIN phantom* Hey, should we go see what Sarah and GERRY phantom are up to...? *I nod* Sure, I guess... *We both go down stairs to his lair, looking for you guys*
Sarah Wilkins *I hear footsteps but don't move or say anything. Cause I'm stuck and really don't mind.* :P
Christine Julia Destler *We go to where you guys and I smile* Good morning...
Sarah Wilkins *I slowly lift my head up* Morning...* I smile*
Christine Julia Destler *Giggles* Did you sleep down here? *I look around, remembering this place all too well*
Sarah Wilkins *I nod* Not exactly in this position, but...yeah...
Christine Julia Destler *I nod again* Ah, okay... *RAMIN phantom speaks up* When are we going to get out of here?
Sarah Wilkins As soon as he feels up to it...I don't know what it was exactly that Carlotta did to him, but...*I sigh, caressing GERRY phantom's face once more*
Christine Julia Destler *RAMIN phantom nods* Yes, of course... *Shakes his head* Gosh, I hate that Carlotta! And Raoul... Why would they do that?
Sarah Wilkins *I shake my head and sigh* Your guess is as good as mine...*I then look up at you* Christine...I wonder if...one of the Giry's would know...or at least have a clue?
Christine Julia Destler *I look at you* They might... I'll go ask them. RAMIN phantom, stay right here. I'll be right back. *Leaves and goes to Mme. Giry's room first*
Sarah Wilkins *I turn my attention to GERRY phantom, as he seems to be dreaming about something...something unpleasant...and I caress his face again trying to comfort him*
Christine Julia Destler *I knock on her door softly* Madame Giry? Are you awake?
Sarah Wilkins (Madame Giry) Of course. How long have you known me? *opens the door and smiles* I've always been awake before the sun! What can I do for you?
Christine Julia Destler *I smile back* Well, I was wondering if you know why Raoul and Carlotta did what they did yesterday?
Sarah Wilkins *She shakes her head and sighs, laughing a bit* The day I understand what goes on in that giant head of hers...*shakes her head again before motioning for you to sit* I wish I did know, my dear. It would make life around here so much easier!
Christine Julia Destler *I nod also laughing bit, sitting down on a chair* I do too! Raoul used to be so... Kind and gentle. Why would he EVER go with someone as AWFUL as Carlotta?
Sarah Wilkins *Madame Giry studies you a bit before replying* I think Raoul's just...hurting now...he's become very bitter...he's still the same, deep down inside, but...*she sighs and looks back at you, touching your shoulder reassuringly* Never you mind. He's not your concern anymore. *she smiles a bit* Have you had breakfast yet?
Christine Julia Destler *I look up at her and smile a bit back* No, not yet.
Sarah Wilkins Well, what are you waiting for? *She stands up* I'll go wake up RAMIN phantom, and we'll all go to the kitchen...
Christine Julia Destler *Also stands up* Oh, he's already awake. I'll go get him, Sarah, and GERRY phantom so we can eat.
Sarah Wilkins *She looks at you curiously but says nothing. **MEANWHILE...GERRY phantom is awake again and at least sitting up, but when I offer him the pastries Meg brought, he refuses. Instead, he reaches for his mask, but instead of putting it on, he turns it over in his hands, studying it distantly*
Christine Julia Destler *I come back down* Hey! *Sees GERRY phantom* Oh, good morning!
Sarah Wilkins *GERRY phantom merely nods* (Me) Did you find out anything?
Christine Julia Destler *Shakes head* No, not yet... I asked Madame Giry, but she didn't know. I'll just ask Meg during breakfast... Which I said we would all be going to, so...
Sarah Wilkins *I look over at GERRY phantom and sigh* I don't think GERRY phantom is gonna be going anywhere anytime soon...Meg brought us pastries earlier so we should be fine...you two can go though.
Christine Julia Destler *I nod* Very well. We'll see you two later. *RAMIN phantom takes my hand and we go to the kitchen to eat*
Sarah Wilkins *I again offer GERRY phantom a pastry, and he looks at me with a sad smile* I'm not hungry...you go ahead and eat though...no need for you to starve over me...*I sigh again and lean my head on his shoulder, taking tiny bites of one of the pastries*
Christine Julia Destler *RAMIN phantom and I are eating breakfast when Meg comes* Hey, Meg! Can I ask you something?
Sarah Wilkins (Meg) Sure!
Christine Julia Destler Do you know why Carlotta and Raoul did that last night?
Sarah Wilkins *Meg looks around cautiously before whispering* I don't know exactly, but I have a few guesses...I'll tell you later...
Christine Julia Destler *I nod* Alright... Thanks! *Goes back to eating my breakfast*
Sarah Wilkins (Meg) No problem...so what's new with you? *she looks over at RAMIN phantom and giggles*
Christine Julia Destler Um... Not much... *Also looks at RAMIN phantom and giggles* What about you? *RAMIN phantom is eating is breakfast, trying to ignore us*
Sarah Wilkins *Meg grins* I'm just a few performances away from becoming Prima Ballerina!
Christine Julia Destler Oh! Congratulations! *Smiles in return* I'm still doing some ballet myself.
Sarah Wilkins Really? What about singing?
Christine Julia Destler I'm still singing! I just dance for fun, you know? *RAMIN phantom glances up at us, staying quiet*
Sarah Wilkins Okay good...*smiles* Are you planning on staying for a while? I'd love for you to be here when I become Prima Ballerina...
Christine Julia Destler *I smile back* Oh, I don't know. But, I would love to see you accomplish that!
Sarah Wilkins *She hugs you and then continues with her breakfast*
Christine Julia Destler *Hugs her back and finishes her own breakfast, and so does RAMIN phantom. He finally speaks* Well, we should get going...
Sarah Wilkins *Meg stands up* So should I...rehearsals and everything...*she grasps your arm and whispers* I'll keep my eyes and ears open for anything Carlotta does...meet me in your old dressing room at four...
Christine Julia Destler *I nod and whispers back* Alright. Thanks again. *RAMIN phantom takes my hand and takes me back to GERRY phantom's lair after waving to Meg*
Sarah Wilkins *Meanwhile, I've finally gotten GERRY phantom to eat half a pastry, but he still hasn't said a word.*
Christine Julia Destler *We come down and run toward you* Sarah! Guess what?
Sarah Wilkins *I look up from the music box* Yes?
Christine Julia Destler Meg said that she might know why Carlotta and Raoul were doing that! *Giggles* She's going to tell me at 4:00 today.
Sarah Wilkins *I smile* That's great!
Christine Julia Destler *I nod* I know! *I sit down on the floor*
Sarah Wilkins *GERRY phantom doesn't look up from his mask* When you find out...I'd rather not hear about it... *I look at him, surprised that he spoke, but I nod in understanding*
Christine Julia Destler *I also nod* No worries. I won't tell you. *RAMIN phantom sits on a chair*
Sarah Wilkins *GERRY phantom sighs* You don't have to all fuss over me...I'm fine. Go...have fun...do something...just...*sighs again* I'll be fine...
Christine Julia Destler *I stand up and look at him* I had no doubt you WEREN'T fine...
Sarah Wilkins *I touch his arm* Are you sure? *GERRY phantom places his other hand on mine and smiles a bit* Yes, I'm sure. *He kisses my temple* I just need some sleep...
Christine Julia Destler *I quietly watch, with RAMIN phantom standing up*
Sarah Wilkins *I kiss his cheek* We'll be back in a few hours then...I'll leave the rest of the pastries here in case you get hungry...*He smiles again before laying back down*
Christine Julia Destler *I grin and skip away*
Sarah Wilkins *I stand up and walk over to his other side. As he closes his eyes, I bend over and kiss his right cheek before following you*
Christine Julia Destler *RAMIN phantom smirks and says in his 'girl' voice* Good night, GERRY phantom! I love you! *He chuckles and walks behind you*
Sarah Wilkins *I turn around and glare at him* Did you REALLY have to taunt him like that?
Christine Julia Destler *RAMIN phantom's smile soon fades* I was only joking! Gosh... *I continue skipping away, not aware that you guys aren't following*
Sarah Wilkins (me) I know you were, but...he's not really in a joking mood right now, if you hadn't noticed!
Christine Julia Destler (RAMIN phantom) Yes, I'm sorry. Now, we better get going. Christine is still skipping her little heart out. *Chuckles*
Sarah Wilkins *I turn around* Right...CHRISTINE WAIT UP! *I hurry toward you*
