Chapter 8
I wake up on a bed in a small room with light brown walls and a dark wooden floor. Sunlight streams through the small window on to bed making the sheets warm. I look over and see Erik holding my hand sitting in a chair next to the bed. He's softly humming Music of the Night, the song he sang when he brought me to his lair for the first time. Memories flood into my mind as I hear Erik humming the song; I felt my soul being set free and my feelings for Erik began blossom that night when he showed me his passion for music and me.
I gently squeeze Erik's hand and he turns and faces me. "Christine, thank God you're awake," he says,"the doctor will be here in a few minutes to do some tests to find out why you're sick."
I smile and ask him,"While we wait can you sing for me?"
"What would you like me to sing," he asks, smiling brightly.
"What you were humming while I was sleeping," I amswer.
He loosk at me playfully,"I thought you were sleeping," he teases.
I blush slightly. "I can't help it if I wake up and hear an angel sing."
He smiles and takes a deep breath before he starts singing,
Nighttime sharpens, Heightens each sensation
Darkness stirs and wakes imagination
Silently the senses abandon their defenses
Slowly gently night unfolds its splendor
Grasp it, sense it
Tremulous and tender
Turn your face away from the garish light of day
Turn your thoughts away from cold unfeeling light
And listen to the music of the night
Close your eyes and surrender to your darkest dreams
Purge your thoughts of the life you knew before
Close your eyes and let your spirit start to soar
And you'll live as you've never lived before
Softly defetly music shall surround you
Hear it, feel it closing in around you
Open up your mind, let your fantasies unwind
In this darkness which you know you cannot fight
The darkness of the music of the night
Let your mind start to journey through a strange new world
Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before
Let your soul take you where you long to be
Only then can you belong to me
Floating falling sweet intoxication
Touch me trust me savor each sensation
Let the dream begin
Let your darker side give in to the power of the music that I write
The power of the music of the night
You alone can make my song take flight
Help me make the music of the night
When he finishes, I clap my hands. "That was beautiful, my angel of music. That song reminds me of that night when I first met you in person; it was one of the best days of my life." Erik smiles and says,"Me too."
Just then the soctor walks in holding a clipboard. The doctor looks like he's in his sixties with light gray hair. His smile is a warm and friendly one as he looks at both me and Erik. "Hello Mr. Destler and Miss Daee, my name is Dr. Valjean. I'm gonna do a few tests to find out why your sick." I nod my head and we begin the tests.
When he finishes, he leaves to get the results. While we wait, Erik holds my hand and we sit there in a comfortable silence until the doctor comes back. He comes back in the room with his clipboard. He smiles and turns to Erik,"If you wouldn't mind Mr. Destler, would you please wait in the hallway for a minute?"
Erik looks at me and I tell him,"It's okay, It will only be for a minute," and then I give him a reassuring smile. He gives my hand one last squeeze before he goes out into the hallway.
Once the door closes, Dr. Valjean walkd over and sits in the chair next to the bed I'm in. "I got the results from the tests." He takes a deep breath before saying with a smile,"Miss Daee, You're gonna be a mother. You're pregnant."
