A/N: Still own nothing!
Christine Julia Destler *I hear and stop skipping, I turn around and notice nobody's there* I-I'M HERE!
Sarah Wilkins *We finally catch up with you* Okay, how much coffee did you have at breakfast? *I smirk*
Christine Julia Destler *I giggle* Two... Five cups! *I giggle again and continue skipping*
Sarah Wilkins *I groan* Oh no...RAMIN phantom why didn't you stop her?
Christine Julia Destler (RAMIN phantom) I wasn't paying attention! *He also groans and runs over to me*
Sarah Wilkins *By the time we catch up to you again and get you to stop giggling and bouncing around, I speak up* So, what do you want to do? Watch the rehearsals?
Christine Julia Destler *I nod* YES!
Sarah Wilkins *We settle into seats behind the orchestra pit and watch the cast members organize themselves*
Christine Julia Destler *I watch, bouncing up and down in my seat*
Sarah Wilkins *I try not to laugh at you as Madame Giry appears with the dancers. Meg sees us and waves*
Christine Julia Destler *I wave back and RAMIN phantom puts him hand on my shoulder to calm me, but it just makes me even more hyper*
Sarah Wilkins *I slowly move down a seat, trying to contain my own laughter*
Christine Julia Destler *I see you* WHAT ARE YOU LAUGHING ABOUT? *I continue doing little bounces on my seat*
Sarah Wilkins Um, I wonder...*I giggle a bit before Madame Giry gives us a quick but obvious 'LOOK' before turning her attention to the dancers*
Christine Julia Destler *RAMIN phantom sees it and whispers to me to calm down and I just giggle*
Sarah Wilkins *I just shake my head and shrug at Madame Giry apologetically. Just then Carlotta makes her Grand Entrance onto the stage*
Christine Julia Destler *I see her and 'Boo' rather loudly*
Sarah Wilkins *Carlotta whirls around and I shrink down hoping she doesn't see me* WHO said that? Thees is just rehearsals we do NOT need an audience!
Christine Julia Destler *I giggle and point to RAMIN phantom* HE DID IT!
Sarah Wilkins *I shrink down even lower until I'm on the floor behind Monsieur Reyer. He looks at me curiously but says nothing.* (Carlotta) YOU two! What are YOU still doing here!
Christine Julia Destler *RAMIN phantom answers that one* We were just leaving... *To me* Come on, Christine... Lets go... *He, then looks at you*
Sarah Wilkins *By now I've inched my way across the floor and out the side exit, and am now waiting for you*
Christine Julia Destler *We try to run/walk casually over to the exit*
Sarah Wilkins *As soon as I see you I grab your arm* WHAT were you THINKING? Man...if looks could kill...*I shudder*
Christine Julia Destler *I look at you and pout* I'm sorry! I didn't mean to be so loud!
Sarah Wilkins *I sigh* Yeah I know...why don't you show me around Paris a little bit? It's not like I've been here before or anything...and the walk will take care of most of that hyperness...
Christine Julia Destler *I nod and take your wrist and drag you toward a bunch of different places. RAMIN phantom is running to keep up with me*
Sarah Wilkins *I keep tripping and stumbling as we go, but I can't fall because your grip on my wrist is so strong* Do you...Ouch!...really have to...YOW...hold onto me...YAAAAA...so tight?
Christine Julia Destler *I stop and look at you* Sorry... *Loosens it a bit and continues running*
Sarah Wilkins *I just shake my head and hop along after you*
Christine Julia Destler *I stop and look up and point* The Eiffel Tower! *Before you can comment, I drag you to different places*
Sarah Wilkins *I look back at your phantom helplessly as I keep hop/limping after you*
Christine Julia Destler *RAMIN phantom tries not to laugh and finally catches up to us* Christine! Slow down! *I look at him and shake my head. Just then, I collapse and my hyperness ends*
Sarah Wilkins *I'm flung forward as you collapse and I land flat on my face in a puddle of mud.*
Christine Julia Destler *RAMIN phantom laughs hysterically and helps you up* Are you okay...?
Sarah Wilkins *I let him help me up and glare at you from under several layers of mud* I'm fine. CHRISTINE on the other hand...
Christine Julia Destler *RAMIN phantom* Oh! *Helps me up and I'm fast asleep* Dang... *Shows me to you*
Sarah Wilkins *I roll my eyes and try to wipe the mud off my face* Fine time for her to take a nap. *Sighs* Shall we go back to the Opera House?
Christine Julia Destler *RAMIN phantom nods and puts me over his shoulder*
Sarah Wilkins *I let him lead the way, stumbling along and dripping mud and TRYING not to look conspicuous*
Christine Julia Destler *RAMIN phantom turns around and chuckles* Do you want me to help you?
Sarah Wilkins *I shake my head, flinging mud all over the place* I'm fine. We're almost there anyway... *I point when I see the Opera House just around the corner* I think I'll go check on GERRY phantom...maybe the sight of me will get him to cheer up some...
Christine Julia Destler *RAMIN phantom nods* Alright... And I know it cheered ME up. *Laughs*
Sarah Wilkins *I grab a handful of mud from my hair and throw it at him. It lands on your head instead, and I stifle a laugh before running down into GERRY phantom's passageways*
Christine Julia Destler *RAMIN phantom chuckles and when we get inside the Opera House, he lays me in my bed, not noticing the mud, and kisses my forehead before going to his room*
Sarah Wilkins *I stumble through the passageways until I finally see GERRY phantom sitting on his bed. He finally looks up and sees me* What in the...*He hurries over to me and leads me to an underground spring, where he gets all the mud off* What on earth happened to you? *I just shake my head and start laughing, and he just sighs and leads me to a chair*
Christine Julia Destler *RAMIN phantom gets bored, and goes down to Gerry Phantom's lair*
Sarah Wilkins *GERRY phantom and I are finishing off the pastries* (Me) Are you feeling any better? *He sighs* A little bit. I just...*he sighs again* It doesn't matter. *He smiles and pulls me over to sit on the bed next to him, and he picks up his violin and starts playing for me as I lean on his shoulder*
Christine Julia Destler *RAMIN phantom walks to where he hears the music*
Sarah Wilkins *GERRY phantom looks up slightly when he notices him but doesn't stop playing*
Christine Julia Destler *RAMIN phantom smiles slightly and listens to him play for a while before checking on me*
Sarah Wilkins *By the time GERRY phantom stops playing, I'm fast asleep. He smiles and lays be down before tucking me in and going into his workspace area*
Christine Julia Destler *RAMIN phantom comes in my room, and I'm still sleeping. He smiles and goes to his room to do some work*
A/N: Sorry this is a bit shorter, but what part of 'Express' don't you understand? :P Anyway you'll see why when you see the next chapter!
