CHAPTER 7

The week came and went and the time came for me to go back. It was the hardest thing I ever had to do. I knew I’d see him again soon, but I just didn’t want to leave him, ever.
I could remember the night before, the most beautiful night of all.

“I feel like I don’t deserve you.” He had said.

I smiled at him and shook my head.

“I feel like I don’t deserve you either. But I love you Erik, more than anything on this earth, and I will stay with you,” I pulled his face down and kissed him, then looked back at him. “Until death do us part.”

He looked at me with such disbelief that I thought he would cry again, but he didn’t. He smiled lightly at me and kissed my forehead.

Madame Giry had come to get me shortly after. She looked in panic, but somehow a happy sort of panic.

“Erik!” she called.

He walked up to her, taking me with him.

“What?”

“I have such wonderful news Erik, such absolutely wonderful news!”

“What?”

Madame just calmed her breathing down and looked at him with a smile.

“A man just turned himself in for all of the murders you were accused of! He told the police everything and even gave them a cape and a mask he had used as a disguise. Everyone knows you’re innocent! The whole opera house is in tears with regret, Firmin and Andre feel like they drove you to your death!”

Erik looked as if he had just seen a ghost. He looked at me, then back to Madame Giry.

“I… I…”

“You’re innocent Erik! Everybody knows it. The entire city of Paris knows it.”

I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. I was so over come with joy that I jumped into his arms and he hugged me tighter then he ever had before. He spun me around in circles and the two of us laughed.

“This is amazing!” I said.

I looked at Madame Giry and she smiled at me. But my smile vanished.

“Well, then wait. What’s going to happen?” I asked her.

“What do you mean?”

“What I mean is can I bring him up now? Can he go outside? What’s going to happen? Everyone thinks he’s dead Madame, what would happen if I were to bring him up? If he has a chance to go up there freely then I want him to take that chance. He deserves to live a normal life.”

She looked away for a moment, and thought to herself. Then she looked back at us.

“We can bring him up… but we need to do it properly, at tonight’s banquet. Amelia, tonight you and I can make the announcement and Erik can make and entrance that none of them will ever forget.”

I looked at Erik, and he looked back at me.

“Is that okay Erik?” I asked him. He smiled at me and shook his head.

“Anything to free us from this prison.” I smiled back at him, kissed him, and then walked to Madame Giry.

“Tonight Erik, we will come at six o’clock. Be prepared.”

Then the two of us rowed away and I was filled with the most joy I had ever felt in my life. Erik would finally be free of this awful lair, this awful prison.
When I got back up to my dormitory, Meg was sitting on the bed. She looked at me in shock when I came in.

“You’re back. Oh my goodness, have you heard?”

“Heard what?” I asked, trying to sound like I didn’t know.

“Louis Cardiè turned himself in for the Phantom’s murders! It’s so unbelievable! I just can’t believe that after all of this time, when we were so convinced that he had been murdering all those men… we were so quick to judge.” She looked at me and shook her head. “It was only because of his face that we had found it so easy to accuse him. André and Firmin aren’t even angry about the fire; they said that they drove him to insanity.”

I smiled to myself. I was glad that they were in such emotional pain. To put Erik through what they had was completely criminal.

“Well, I guess everyone learned quite a lesson then.”

“But you must still be filled with such hate.”

I turned to her confused.

“Why would you say that?”

“Because of what happened to Raoul, he did threaten his life.”

“I’m not angry about that at all anymore. I can’t control those types of things.”

She looked at me in confusion and wonder.

“That’s wonderful Amelia. The fact that you’re so forgiving is so rare.”

I smiled at her and then walked over to my closet. I pulled out a yellow gown and began to dress for the banquet. Meg tied my corset. It felt strange to put on, I hadn’t worn it in nearly two weeks. I looked at myself in the mirror, the dress was so beautiful, gold, yellow and white, it was the most beautiful thing I had ever worn in my life. Erik had given it to me; he had put it in my closet when I was asleep in the lair, and then come back down. He woke me up and then said he had given me a surprise for me in my room. I had been so amazed by his willingness to go up above that I pulled him down to me and made sweet love to him. I loved him so much, it was absolutely uncontrollable. Every time I saw him I just wanted to hold him close to me and have him hold me back.

“Oh my… Amelia! What a beautiful dress! Where on earth did you get this?”

“Oh, a very close friend gave it to me.”

“Goodness, it’s incredible. You’ll make everyone else look absolutely dreadful if you wear this.” She said smiling. “There will be many respectable men there tonight, maybe you’ll meet someone. Oh my, maybe! What am I saying, you’ll surely meet someone.”

I smiled lightly at her and shook my head.

“I’m not interested in that tonight.”

I then slipped into the dress and Meg tied up the back. I looked at myself in the full length mirror. I must admit, it was the best I had ever looked. I then allowed my hair to fall down over my shoulders in long waves and pulled some of it back in a golden clip. Meg put on a pink dress that was also very beautiful, but I must say that I did have the upper hand with my wardrobe.
Meg and I walked downstairs to the lobby, which was full of people. As Meg and I walked down the stairs, many men turned their heads and looked at us. Some of them smiled and talked to each other. I found Madame Giry and pulled her aside.

“Madame, when are we going to get Erik?”

“In a moment, we just need to wait for everyone to go into the banquet hall.”

We stood there for a moment and Firmin and André let everyone into the banquet hall. The two of us hurried off up the stairs and into my dormitory. Madame Giry pulled the mirror aside and revealed Erik, standing there waiting. He looked absolutely amazing. He wore a black suit with a maroon vest underneath, the same outfit he wore the night I had first met him, his hair was slicked back nicely. He turned to face us and I saw that he was wearing his white mask. I hated the mask, I hated the fact that he felt he had to wear it. But I knew he wouldn’t feel comfortable without it, and we had no idea what would happen that night.
He dropped his jaw slightly when he saw me. He looked me up and down a bit and I smiled. I took his hands in mine and he smiled at me.

“You… you look so beautiful.”

“Thank you,” I said. Then I kissed him. “You look wonderful Erik.”

Madame Giry smiled at the two of us.

“Come now, we must go.”

“How are we going to do this Madame? We can’t just waltz in.”

“I’ll take care of it.”
