Chapter one – A new love
4 months before the revolution
Joly's POV
''Here we go.'' I thought when I entered the ABC café.
Enjolras, Marius, Combeferre, Courfeyrac, Feuilly, Lesgles, Bahorel, Grantaire, Jean Prouvaire and all the people who were willing to fight with us were there.
When I was talking to Marius a girl came running into the café and immediately walked over to where Marius and I were talking.
Marius turned to me and gave me a look.
I immediately knew what he meant with that look.
''I'll let you two talk in private.'' I said as I kissed the girl her hand.
Her hand was dirty, but the world around me fell away as soon as I met her beautiful brown eyes.
I didn't even care about the dirt on her hand what could make me ill.
She was the prettiest girl I've ever met.
She had black hair, beautiful cheekbones and had the most beautiful curves in the world eventhough she was incredibly skinny.
I turned away from Marius and the girl.
I went over to the table where Jean Prouvaire, Grantaire and Feuilly were playing a card game, but as soon as I sat down at the table I found myself staring at the girl.
''I have to know who she is.'' I thought as I turned back to the boys to concentrate on the card game.
I looked up from the card game when the boys didn't continue with the game and found three pairs of eyes staring at me.
''Is our little Joly in love?'' teased Feuilly. '
'Awwwww our little medical student is in love!'' Grantaire shouted.
''Oh my, our medical student is in love with miss Éponine Thenardier.'' Jean Prouvaire said and they started laughing.
'' Can't you three just shut your mouth and concentrate on your card game?'' I asked them.
They shook their heads and continued laughing.
I quickly decided to leave the table before they could humiliate me in front of everyone.
I walked over to where Enjolras, Combeferre, Courfeyrac, Lesgles and Bahorel stood talking about the oncoming fight.
Soon enough I became uninterested because I kept thinking about Éponine; I actually found out her name when Jean Prouvaire was teasing me.
I made a mental note to thank him.
Soon enough everyone will know that I like her because that drunkard called Grantaire can't shut his mouth.
Éponine's POV
''55 Rue Plumet'' I thought on my way to the ABC café.
That's where Cosette, who I had to find for monsieur Marius, lives.
I hate her.
The boy I love is in love with her and not with me.
''Stupid lark.'' I thought as I entered the café.
As soon as I entered the ABC café I saw monsieur Marius talking to that medical student called Joly or something.
I started walking towards them when Marius saw me.
He turned to that Joly guy and gave him a look.
I had just reached them when that Joly guy said he'd let Marius and me talk in privat and then he kissed my hand.
''Wow...A guy who kisses my hand? Since when is a guy willing to kiss my hand? Not even Marius kisses my hand!'' I thought.
When he came up from kissing my hand he looked into my eyes for a brief second.
When I looked into his beautiful blue eyes the world around me fell away.
He was the prettiest boy I had ever met.
He was even prettier than monsieur Marius.
He quickly walked over to the table where Feuilly, Grantaire and that young student called Jean Prouvaire were playing a card game.
''Éponine, may I have your attention please?'' Monsieur Marius asked, bringing me back to reality.
''Yes, yes of course you may.'' I said and turned to him.
''Have you found the girl I told you to find?'' He asked me.
''Yes, I have found her. Her address is 55 Rue Plumet.'' I said to him.
He looked really pleased when I told him I found her and hugged me.
''Please, please bring me to her straight away!'' He practically begged.
I nodded.
''Come on then.'' I said.
He held the door open for me.
''After you.'' He said.
I walked out of the door and felt how Marius took my hand.
''Lets go!'' He said.
I led him through several alleyways until we reached 55 Rue Plumet.
''Here we are.'' I said.
''Thank you, Éponine. I don't think I'll ever be able to repay you!'' Marius said.
He took both my hands in his hands, squeezed them and let them go.
I hear Marius murmur some words to himself as I watched him climbing up the gate.
I hid behind the gate's wall once I was sure Marius hadn't fallen down
I stood outside the gate thinking about Joly.
I didn't even care about Marius and Cosette now.
Joly was the only thing that mattered now.
