Hi! This is my first fanfic, so if it's bad, that's why :\ Anyways please enjoy this little prologue!
"And now I'm all alone again nowhere to turn no one to go to," Eponine began to sing her melancholy prelude as she walked down the glistening street. "Without a home, without a friend, without a face to say hello to," The words just seemed to flow out of her, she'd held all of these feelings in so long and now she was finally cracking. "But now the night is near, now I can make believe he's here." The light sprinkle of rainfall hid her silent tears as they drifted down her dirt stained cheeks in rivulets.
"Sometimes I walk alone at night when everybody else is sleeping. I think of him and then I'm happy with the company I'm keeping." She choked out. "The city goes to bed, and I can live inside my head." She closed her eyes and remembered; remembered why she felt this pain this gnawing, why she could never be with him. She remembered how he'd chosen HER…and not Eponine.
Eponine clasped a hand around each arm and hugged herself as she trembled. Her heart and her mind seemed to be at war and her body didn't know what to do. Her mind seemed to say, "Remember! He chose her not you! Be angry with him! Yell! Scream! HE did this to you!" But her heart scream, "I can't take this!" It squeezed and cried out, "I'm all alone! He was all I had and now…and now… he's gone." But in this fight neither side won. The memories came back, but she wasn't angry. Her anguish was beyond description it ripped her heart apart, but she continued to remember. She remembered when her world came crashing down. When she realized that she was, and will always be, on her own.
So, I know this was short but it was really only here to set the mood for the rest of the story. So...um...yeah please review. Tell me what you think; constructive criticism is always welcome! :)
