Chapter 1
I Woke up with the worst headache this morning but it wasn't because of late nights nope it was because of the dreams except it's not the first time this has happened the dreams consist of me in I'm guessing 1830's France at some sort of revolution one minute I'm alive the next minute I'm bleeding in someone's arms .That Person isn't just anyone its Marius Pontmercy let's just say I'm more than just a little in love with that guy.
"Eponine Get your wretched body down here" Said my more than horrible father my family if you can call it that. But I thought I should go down otherwise I will certainly regret it later so I threw on some tattered jeans and an old shirt and ran down stairs. "What" I said almost bitterly
"You don't want to be late for your first day back now do we" father said "Since when did you care about my school life" "I don't I may need your help tonight were doing a job tonight"
When my "Father" mentions when work he doesn't mean a nice small town job like a banker or whatever nope he means a robbery or murder he's not exactly an honest man.
"Well I should be going to school" I didn't even let him respond before I ran out the door and started walking to school. "Hey Ponine" " I look round to see who said that and I smile "Hello Sophia" Sophia is one of my only friends in this entire town she has long red hair, Hazel Eyes and well let's just say I feel very small when I'm beside her and well ugly . "You disappeared last night we were all worried about you where did you go" "I had curfew and you know me hate to cross curfew" "Nothing Happened did it" "No Nothing Happened I got in on time". For the rest of the walk to school we just chatted about nothing really just anything to get my mind of what my dad is up to and his little gang.
"There You Two are where the hell have you been" that is Cassie she's tall dark brown hair tanned like me she could be a model if she wanted and well it's not like she hasn't dabbled in it over the years. "Calm down Cas we just walked really slow you know how Soph likes to dawdle"
"I do not dawdle I wasn't the one who was daydreaming about Pontmercy" the red head said "I Was not daydreaming about him" "Yes you were" I just rolled my eyes and walked into the school when I got to my locker two people were let's just say eating each other's Faces off I coughed to see if they would move no look "Hey you two cut it out or move in front of someone else's locker please I'm in a hurry" they pull apart and I roll my eyes when I see who it is Aidan Enjolras and his girl of the month Louise hunter the captain of the cheerleading team so it only makes sense that they would be making out in front of my locker. Louise was tall blonde and well your typical high school bitch like Regina George. Well Aidan Enjolras was another story he was also tall but at least 6ft blonde curly hair and well if there was someone to be sculptured from a Greek god he would be it. "Oh sorry didn't see you there" Louise said with a sly smirk "Oh I don't doubt it you two were too busy to notice when someone is in a rush I'm surprised you both still have faces after that and if you would excuse me I need to get to class" I looked at both of them and Enjolras just had a little smirk on his face oh how I would love to wipe that off his face.
Sophia pointed to the table next to her when I got into the class "What took you so long" "Mr and Mrs perfect where making me feel nauseous at my locker". I look up when I hear someone sit in front of me and I end up with a goofy smile on my face when I notice who it is Marius. "You look like an idiot with that smile on your face" Sophia said in a whisper "Shut it and I don't look like an idiot" "No just a love-struck teenager" I glare at her and continue writing my essay the teacher told us too after class Marius walked up to me "Ponine how are you" "Oh I am alright thank you Marius" "So how bored were you in there because I was about to fall asleep" "Honestly I found it fascinating but we all have different opinions on things don't we" I say with a big smile on my face when I see his friends coming over the smile quickly fades. "Marius we have practise coach came to tell me too tell you" Courfeyrac one of his closest friends said "Well Ponine as lovely as it would be to continue this I have to go I will see you later okay" he says as he's walking down the hall and flashes a quick smile at me and then he's gone Yeah see you later I say quietly to myself.
"Hey earth to Ponine" Cassie said while waving her hand in front of my face "What" "We were just saying that we are going to sit on the bleachers and watch the gorgeous boys play soccer so you coming" "Yeah I guess" "So what were you thinking about" Soph asks me "Oh you know the usual" "Marius" they both say at the same time "No not Marius" "So what were you thinking about?" "Oh you know world news the problems in third world countries" "Of course you were" we sat down on the bleachers "They are all so gorgeous especially Jehan" "Sophia I have an idea why don't you talk to him" "Right says the girl who's obsessing over Marius since the first day of freshman year" "I have not been into him that long have I? "Yes" they say at the same time.
I look out to see that Enjolras has the ball and well he scores and there is a big celebration it's not even a real game and anyone could have done that honestly how hard could it be. "So have any more of those dreams" "Dream it's the same one and yes this one is a lot more vivid then the last one though I saw myself dying in Marius arms and all I could see was the back of a blonde persons head don't know who it was though" "Maybe it was your secret lover" I laugh at Cassie point
"Oh how I hope I had one I wonder if that Eponine's life was any better than mine I mean it can't possibly have been worse than what it is now" the other two just look at me Sympathetically and I just smile slightly and pull out my sketch book and start drawing but somehow it ends up looking like the barricade from my dream and the same Mysterious blonde man. "Come on let's get going" "Hmm what you say" "I said practise is over and we have class"
"Whoopee History with the devil himself" I said in reply "He isn't that bad Eponine" Sophie responded "Yes he is that bad he is also an egotistical bigot" "Did you really just call him a bigot" "Yes I did you two go ahead I need to grab a book out my locker" they look at me and smile "We will try to save you a seat" I nod and walk to my locker and grab my history book.
When I walk into the classroom and notice there is only one seat left next to him great so much for saving me a seat. So I walk up to the table and sit down next to him and I turn to look at him and see he is smirking at me I roll my eyes and look forward. The teacher starts talking about something but im not listening im too busy sketching in my book when all of a sudden I hear the word project and partner's and her picking them oh god. It was only Me, Enjolras, Cassie and Grantaire left and I kept my fingers crossed praying it's not Enjolras.
But just my luck I get put with him looks like this is going to be a term from hell. "So you want to come to my place tonight" I Look at him and I can't get words out "Huh" "I said do you want to come to mine tonight and work on this the sooner we start the sooner its finished" I don't know what to say speak Eponine speak you look like an idiot you have never had problem talking to him and now he's looking at me waiting for my reply.
"Sorry I can't do it tonight but how about tomorrow after work I work at the" "Café Musain the little French Café I know" I look at him with wide eyes "It's not like I stalk you I just go there a lot and see you" we have another moment of silence before the bell rings and as soon as it does I run out I can hear the girls running behind me. "Wow just your luck" "Yeah tell me about it but you did get lucky didn't you Cassie" "Yeah I guess we all did except from you obviously" we walk to the lunch room in silence.
"So when are you and Mr Enjolras going to work on your project" "Tomorrow night why" I answer with a quizzical look at Sophia "Oh it's just I thought you would want to start tonight get it over with as soon as possible" "I do it's just I can't tonight I have plans" "Really without us I'm offended" "Don't be Its family stuff you want anything from the sandwich bar" "Yeah I chicken Mayo for me" I nodded and look at Cassie she just shakes her head at me that's not like her she always wants to eat something. When I get to the sandwich bar I feel a tap on my shoulder and see Marius " Sorry about leaving you stranded in the hall before" I love when he does that feels guilty for me "It's fine Sophia and Cassie were not far behind" he just nods "So I was wondering if you could maybe do my English essay you see I'm swamped with all my other things at the moment" "Yeah I can it's not a problem" "You sure" he asks with a cheeky smile How can I resist? So I just nod and smile and watch him walk away after saying thank you "Oh and can you clean my shoes Eponine and do my entire school coursework please" I hear the voice from behind me and see its Enjolras
What is his problem? So I turn around and look at him "What is your problem" "Oh nothing just that you let him walk all over you" "I don't I just like to help him" "More like do everything for him talk about needy" "I am not needy" "Oh really then why else would you do all that for him" I don't respond okay maybe I am a little bit needy but who cares he can't know. "Well I just want him to be happy and if he's swamped to take a weight of his shoulders and maybe yes I am a slight bit needy but that's not why I do it but you're not even worth the words leaving my mouth right now because you are incapable of human emotions your nothing more than a marble statue with a pretty girlfriend hiding everything you truly feel because you are trying to please everyone around you but in the end you might have a lot of money with a hot wife but you will feel nothing but lonely" And with that I pick up my sandwiches' and drink and leave him with a shocked expression on his face and what else maybe a little sadness.
I wasn't too harsh was I ?
