Eponine shuddered as she felt his breath hot on her neck. Every time one of his fingers grazed her back slightly a jolt of electricity would pass through her. She chewed her bottom lip trying to figure out why she was letting him get into her head that way.
Enjolras had not been this close to a girl in a long time. She's no girl anymore he thought to himself but shook it off. The marble statue was starting to crack. He was becoming flustered over a girl who only a few hours ago was only a shadow to him. His mind and heart were betraying him. "Enjolras" he heard Eponine whisper. "You done yet?" He couldn't talk, he couldn't answer, he could hardly pry his fingers off her waist where they had settled themselves. "Mhm" was all he could manage before giving her an almost imperceptible squeeze around the waist. Eponine suppressed a small smile that was tugging at her lips.
She turned around towards the small mirror that was propped up against the wall and admired the dress they had given her. "This is honestly too much Enjolras, how am I ever supposed to repay you and Monsieur Joly?" she asked worriedly. "You'll stay the night" he answered with a little more force than what he intended to. Eponine's face fell. She had already been planning on leaving as soon the boys fell asleep and she was left alone. Again she hesitated to answer. Her father would let his gang have their way with her if she was gone all tonight, but then again didn't he always. Her hands fumbled with the skirts of her new dress. She sighed and eyed Enjolras through the mirror. "Why are you being so kind" she stated rather bluntly. "I fight for the people Eponine" For you his mind told him. "What type of hypocrite would I be if I didnt help people like you." "Watch out Enjolras, your revolutioner is showing" she joked. "Please Eponine, I'm serious, I don't want you going back to your father." Eponine stiffened at his words. "It's my home Enjolras, my only home" He gave her a shy smile "Not anymore" he answered. They argued a little longer, where would she sleep, he would give her his bed, how would she repay him, she wouldn't have to, what would people think, screw the people he said. Exhaustion found them both soon. She let herself be led to his bedroom and didnt hesitate to lie down when she was told. As he walked out of his room and towards the living room he turned around to look at the girl on his bed. Woman, his mind corrected again. He closed the door quietly, glad that she had agreed to stay.

Sorry for this super short chapter. It was sort of a filler one, just needed to end that first encounter and stuff. Oh and for future reference Aaron Tveit is who I have in mind when writing this and of course Samantha Barks for the lovely Eponine.
