"Girls, whatever is the matter?" Asked Christina as she was confused. She was sitting in front of her dressing room mirror when two of her fellow colleagues walked in. "A man is there in front of the stage. Says he knows you." Said Lilian who was a backup vocalist as her looks contrasted to that of the prima donna. "Oh? That's probably Dr. Jekyll, wanting to see how I'm doing." As soon as those words left her lips, the two women's eyes widened to the size of dinner plates.
"That famous doctor? Why would he want to see you?" Asked Daphne, the second vocalist. Christina smiled and dabbed a bit of lipstick onto her lips, painting them a crimson color to contrast with the amethyst eyeshadow on her lids. "Do you not remember the death of my cousin, Lucy? He found me crying at her grave, mourning for her and comforted me. He was very sweet, told me he would never hurt me.. I fell for him right then and there." She told them with a slight blush on her cheeks. The both of them were surprised to hear that.
"Alright.. but if he breaks that promise, we are kicking his arse." That earned them a laugh from the woman. "I'll be sure to remind Jekyll if I tell him how I truly feel about him." She said to them as she shooed them away to continue getting herself ready for tonight's show. Sighing, she looked into the mirror and didn't see her reflection. Instead, she saw same honey locks and fair skin, but diamond gray eyes. This was the face of Roseanne. Everyone assumed she put in contact lenses to make her eyes look like that, they didn't expect their Christina Nightingale to have another personality..
"Roseanne, did you hear about what they said?"
"I heard, Chris! I didn't expect Hyde to come back here!"
"Well then.. let's give them a show they will never forget~"
"I like the way you think, girl!"
She giggled, loving how she and Roseanne got along very well. Unpinning her hair, she let her hair down as it cascaded down her globes which were hidden by her pink and white dress, completed with puffy lace sleeves. For the final touch, she added a golden necklace with a single pink jewel heart and a pair of matching earrings. "Alright, you may have control, Rosy." She said, closing her eyes. When she opened them, she stared at her reflection, seeing the gray eyes instead of the azure orbs.
Christina was gone for awhile and Roseanne was free. "Thanks Chris. I'll be sure not to disappoint you~" she said, smiling.
She walked to the stage, her hands behind her back as her golden heels with little pearls wafted through the air. As she reached the center, the spotlight shined down on her radiant frame. Opening her eyes, she began to sing. (A/n: start music)
"I peer through windows, watch life go by. Dream of tomorrow and wonder why.. the past is holding me, keeping life at bay? I wandered lost in yesterday~, wanting to fly but scared to try.. but if someone like you found someone like me, then suddenly.. nothing would ever be the same~ my heart would take wing, and I feel so alive~ if someone like you found me..~"
Jekyll was in the crowd, enthralled by the beauty's voice. He knew this was Roseanne since Christina had the most beautiful blues while she had diamond gray eyes that would put Hyde into a trance. What a trance she was putting him under! They noticed the woman looking at him as she smiled, continuing to sing.
"So many secrets I long to share, all I have needed is someone there to help me see a world I've never seen before. A love to open every door..~ To set me free so I can soar~ if someone like you found someone like me, then suddenly.. nothing would ever be the same~ There'd be a new way to live, a new life to love. If someone like you found me!~ oh, if someone like you found someone like me, then suddenly.. nothing would ever be the same~
My heart would take wing and I'd feel so alive!~ if someone like you loved me..~"
After that last note, everyone, including Jekyll and Hyde, clapped for the beautiful woman as a few cheered her name. She giggled and blew a kiss at the doctor and madman before leaving the stage. He followed her with a little present hidden behind his back. Knocking on her dressing room door three times, he heard a gentle 'come in!' From the woman that occupied the room. Going inside the door, she spotted the beautiful lady sitting on the chaste lounge with the moonlight from the window bathing her body in it's shining light.
"Hello, Dr. Jekyll~ did you enjoy the show?" She asked him as she offered him a seat. "Oh, yes! You were magnificent as per usual, You two." He said, taking the chair. "Also.. Hyde and I got you both something." He added, taking out the bouquet of flowers. They were the girls' favorites; Violets for Christina and burgundy roses for Roseanne. They both made an 'awe' sound and happily accepted the flowers. "They're lovely, Henry and Edward.. thank you." Said Roseanne as a slight blush formed on her pretty face.
It made them happy to see their favorite singers smile as it just made them even more gorgeous. Hyde took the gray-eyed woman's hand and gave it a gentle nip, kissing it afterwards. She giggled and kissed him on the nose like she did the night they first met. "That song.. did you mean what you both sang?" She giggled once more and looked at them dead in the eyes. "Meet me on the rooftop of the opera house next time I perform and I'll give you both your answer, does that sound fair?" She watched as they nodded their heads yes.
"Good. I'll be waiting for you until then~" the women both crooned slightly and kissed them both on the cheek, leaving a red imprint on the left side of his face. The Doctor then left her dressing room, leaving Roseanne alone. She sighed, hoping to finally confess to Hyde while Christina told Jekyll how she felt about him. It was going to take a while, but they did not care. It was going to be worth a shot to tell them and they prayed that they wouldn't mess it up.
