As she put the mysterious music box away she heard the balcony doors open. She looked through the mist and saw someone she never hoped to see again. Erik Destler.
She hated him for lying to her but she couldn't run away something was pulling her towards him. As he opened his arms to her she ran to him. As he hugged her she realized who this man was, a horrible manipulative and hurtful man she shared a love filled night with. She will never forget or regret it, it was...amazing.

"I should have know that you'd be here, I should have known it all along
This whole arrangement bears your stamp; you're in each measure of that song
How dare you try and claim me now? How dare you come invade my life?"

"Oh Christine, my Christine, you can not forget the night we loved each other until death. That night where you begged to be with me don't you deny that you did, that long ago night"

"That night..."

"Once there was a night beneath a moonless sky Too dark to see a thing, too dark to even try"

"I strode to your side, to tell you I must go
I couldn't see your face, but sensed you even so
And I touched you"

"And I felt you"

"And I heard those ravishing refrains"

"The music of your pulse"

"The singing in your veins"

"And I held you"

"And I touched you"

"And embraced you"

"And I felt you"

"And with every breath and every sigh"

"I felt no longer scared"

"I felt no longer shy"

"At last our feelings bared
Beneath a moonless sky"

"And blind in the dark, as soul gazed into soul;
I looked into your heart and saw you pure and whole"

"Cloaked under the night, with nothing to suppress
A woman and a man, no more and yet no less
And I kissed you"

"And caressed you
The Phantom and Christine: And the world around us fell away
We said things in the dark, we never dare to say"

"And I caught you"

"And I kissed you"

"And I took you"

"And caressed you

"With a need too urgent to deny
As nothing mattered then, except for you and I
Again and then again, beneath a moonless sky"

"And I loved you
I loved you
And You left me
How I loved you"

"And yet I won't regret from now until I die
A night I can't forget beneath a moonless sky"
