Irene's POV :
After the fight, the crowd are chanting "Musketeers ! Musketeers ! Musketeers !" I say "I missed that." Aramis says "I'd forgotten what it feels like." Athos says "We all have." I smile. I heard Porthos telling D'Artagnan "The ladies of Paris are infinitely more complicated. They have 1,000 ways of saying, 'No', and only some of them mean, 'Yes'." Aramis tells them "I hate to ruin the mood, but they will be back." I say "And unless you wish to fight an entire army." We walk away from here. Then, D'Artagnan asks "So, now what ? Do we pick up where we left off ?" Porthos says "I think there's been enough fighting for one day." Athos says "Besides, any man who's an enemy of Rochefort is a friend of mine." D'Artagnan asks "Who's Rochefort ?" I groan and Aramis answers him "Captain of the Cardinal's guards. The right hand of the most powerful man in France. Rochefort is the most feared swordsman in Europe. You certainly know how to pick your fights." I scoff as he said the most feared swordsman in Europe. It's like he doesn't know that his father-in-law is The most feared swordsman in Europe. I push them away and walk away. I heard Aramis calling me but I continue to walk away.
Athos's POV :
Rania pushed us and walked away. I sigh. It doesn't surprise me. She had the most horrible relationship with him. If we weren't here to save her from him, he would probably raped and beated her everyday. D'Artagnan asks "What's wrong with Rania ? Did I say something wrong ?" Porthos says "Not at all, lad. It's just... Rania had an horrible past with Rochefort. They were lovers. And, more they were together more he was brutal with her." I see Aramis getting angry. I say "Rania is like a little sister to us. Well, to Aramis, she's more than that." D'Artagnan says "Yeah, she told me about you three. In her stories." Aramis asks "Who is she to you ?" He answers "She's like a second mother to me. She babysat me when I was a baby. She never told me about Rochefort. When he tried to kill me, she said something in italian." I ask "What was it ?" He answers "Something like *Poi ti ucciderò anche tu.* What's that mean ?" I say "It means then I will kill you too." Aramis says "She never talk about her horrible past with him. If someone talks about Rochefort next to her, she walks away or cries silently." D'Artagnan asks "Where is she going ?" I say "In our house. Maybe drinking." Aramis looks down.

Irene's POV :
When I walked away, I went to the boys house which is a second home to me. I went to Aramis room. I took off my boots and layed down on the bed. I sigh and begin to cry. Then, I heard Porthos asking "What shall we drink to ?" D'Artagnan asks "How about the King ?" Athos says "He's a child. Cardinal rules in all but name, might as well drink to him." D'Artagnan asks "To France ?" "We served it, fought for it and bled for it. Look where it got us." "Friendship ? Love ?" "Word of advice, boy. Trust no one." "Must be something you still believe in." "This. And this. Rania is the only exception. Anyone who tells you otherwise is either a fool or trying to sell you something." I sigh. I hear knocking at the door. I say "Coming." Athos says "It's me, Nena." I say "Hm hm." I feel him sitting next to me on the bed. He strokes my back "You okay ?" I say sarcasticly "Yeah, great. You know perfectly how am I." He sighs "Nena, I know it's hard for you to forget the past but try. For us. For Aramis." I look at him "Okay, I'll try." He smiles and kisses my forehead "Thanks, Nena." I smile slightly. He goes to his room and go downstairs. I wipe my tears before entering in the living room. I whisper "Hey guys." Porthos smiles "Hey, Nena. Feeling better ?" I shrug my shoulders "A little yeah." He nods. Aramis grabs my hand and pulls me into a hug. I sigh and wrap my arms around his waist. He kisses my head. I ask them "Is there some wine ?" D'Artagnan says "Planchet is getting it." I smile nodding.
