Hi! My name's Jackie! Check out my sisters account (Kimco) I write on that one as well.

Grantaire was having a bad day. He sat by the side of the pavement staring out at the road, wondering what to do with his life. It was raining quite a lot. People were running up and down the streets trying to get out of the rain. Grantaire sighed. He watched as the rain splashed onto the road making a calm pitter-pattering sound.

Grantaire was distracted from his thoughts when a tall blonde man stood in front of him. Enjolras stood there looking down at Grantaire sitting on the street, "Hey R."

Grantaire smiled a little, "Hey Apollo."

Enjolras was using a newspaper to shield him from the rain, "What are you doing out here? You're gonna catch a cold if you stay out in the rain you idiot."

Grantaire laughed, "I'm just…thinking about stuff you know."

Enjolras shook his head, "Hey, I don't want you to get ill alright? Come on, let's get you out of the rain." Enjolras offered his hand out to Grantaire. Grantaire hesitated at first but then took the hand. Enjolras hand was warm and soft. Grantaire's hand was wet from the rain and ice cold.

Enjolras helped Grantaire onto his feet. Enjolras handed Grantaire some of the newspaper and the two of them started running towards the musian using the newspapers to cover their heads.

The others were all at the Musian. Combeferre was reading a book on chemistry when Eponine came and sat by the table he was sitting at. She rested her head on the table and sighed. Combeferre finished the line he was reading and looked up at Eponine, "Um, Eponine, you ok?" Eponine hit her head on the table a couple of times and then groaned. She then sat up.

"Fine."

Combeferre sighed and closed his book. He went over to the bar and then came back with two cans of beer. Eponine took it and started to drink. Combeferre sat down opposite her and sipped some of his beer, "What's on your mind 'Ponine?"

Eponine sighed, "The usual stuff. Mariu's ignoring me. Grantaire's gone missing. Cosette's annoying me. Why does Cosette have to be so PERFECT! Fuck Cosette and her good looks and her nice personality!" Eponine started hitting her head on the table again. Combeferre was trying to hide a smile which was creeping up onto his face. Eponine looked up and raised an eyebrow, "What's so funny?"

"Nothing…" Combeferre said supressing a grin.

"Ferre, what's so funny?!" Eponine asked.

Combeferre then let the smile settle on his face, "It's just, you. You're so amusing some times. It's your personality Eponine. You're just so adorable!" Combeferre said. Eponine smirked and raised an eyebrow.

"Well, you're the first person ever to call me adorable." Eponine said.

Suddenly Enjolras and Grantaire walked into the Musian with wet hair and clothes. The Amis all went over to them, "Oh my god guys. You're like soaked." Marius said.

"Thank you Pontmercy, for pointing out the obvious." Enjolras said placing the soaked newspaper on the table. Grantaire did the same.

"Well, that was fun." Grantaire said. Enjolras laughed. Grantaire and Enjolras both took off their coats and hung them up to let them dry.

Later that day, everyone was still at the Musian. They were basically trapped in there until the rain stopped. Eponine was talking to Combeferre about her troubled love life. "I just really want him to notice me for a change. Maybe he just doesn't find me attractive."

"I find that hard to believe." Combeferre mumbled.

"What was that?"

"Well, I'm just saying, you are what guys would call 'beautiful'. I find it hard to believe anyone actually thinks that you're anything less." Combeferre said taking a sip of his beer.

Eponine smiled, "You're way too nice Combeferre. Why don't you have a girlfriend?"

Combeferre shrugged, "I haven't found the right girl yet. Anyway, back to the matter at hand. You want Marius to notice you right?" Eponine nodded, "Well, that's easy. All we need to do is make you look more desirable. Guys want what they can't have. Let's make you what he can't have."

"And how do you suppose we do that?" Eponine said taking a gulp of beer.

Combeferre shrugged, "You need to find yourself a fake boyfriend." Combeferre said.

"What to make him like, jealous?" Combeferre nodded.

"You got it."

Eponine thought for a moment and then said, "Could you be my fake boyfriend?"

Combeferre sighed, "Well…I guess I could. Although, it does mean that at the end of all of this we will have to fake break up. You ok with that?" Combeferre asked with a smile.

Eponine giggled and nodded, "Yeah I'm fine with that. But I'm dumping you ok?" Combeferre smiled and they both drank from their glasses.

Once the rain had stopped, everyone grabbed their coats and went home. Enjolras stayed at the Musian for a bit. He still had work to do. He was typing on his laptop when Grantaire came and sat next to him, "Hey E."

"Oh, hey Grantaire." Enjolras said without turning his attention away from his computer, "Aren't you going home R? It's getting late."

Grantaire shrugged, "I've got nothing to do so, I guess I'm hanging out with you." Grantaire leaned back in his chair. Enjolras smirked. Enjolras continued typing for a while until he suddenly stopped. The sudden disappearance of the typing noise got Grantaires attention, "Um, you ok E?"

"Yeah, I'm…" Enjolras sighed and closed his laptop, "There's just one question I have for you Grantaire."

Grantaire sighed, "Go on."

"Why do you come to my meetings? I mean, we all know that you don't really care about my cause. I just want to know why you force yourself to stay here when you're supporting a cause you don't believe in."

Grantaire sighed and took a sip of his wine. He then put the glass back on the table and said, "You want the honest truth? I don't exactly know. Yeah, I don't give a damn about all the politics you and the Amis like to talk about and I don't really have much faith in your cause at all really. But I don't know. There's something about…well you. Something about you that makes me want to stay. I don't believe in the cause, but I believe in you."

"That…doesn't make much sense to me."

Grantaire smirked, "You think too much Apollo." Grantaire said. Enjolras still seemed confused but he just left it at that. He stood up and grabbed his laptop. He then grabbed his coat and walked out the door.

Grantaire sat in the Musian for a while just thinking. He honestly didn't know why he stayed at these meetings. Why should he? He had tried to stay away before but, he had always come back. Then he realised something. No one would ever stay at something they don't believe in. No one would suffer through a boring meeting for a cause they didn't have faith in. But the one rule that outranks everything was that everyone would do anything for the one they loved.
