Christine blushed a little more as Raoul sat next to her and pulled her into his arms. It was nice....he was warm and had a comforting air about him. She hugged him back and lay her head on his shoulder. They were both silent, but it wasn't the kind of silent that would be akward, it was the kind of silent in which both of the occupiers knew the other was happy and both were content in just being in each other's presence. She closed her eyes as she lay there in his arms, and she heard him hum the song her father played for them when they were children. She had forgotten all about that song, or rather, she had tried despirately to forget it, but now her mind welcomed it with open wings. Memories came flooding back, happy ones. It was as though all the sad ones had disappeared, vanished into the dark, like a certain someone she knew.....she mentally shook the thought off....but another came....that man who wore the mask and slept in the shadows...the one who always wore black...who's eyes held the sadness of the world...those eyes that she loved so much, but oh how she wished she could forget them right now. She let her mind wonder around the theater, things she had heard Meg say lately, things that Raoul had said....about a play...she shook that thought off as well. She could wait a little while longer before getting ready. She just needed a moment to rest. And with that thought, she snuggled on Raoul's arm and let her mind rest.
