A/N: the first song is Think Of Me from Phantom of the Opera and I do not own it. That's the sing is Your Eyes from Rent and I do not own it. Lastly the song is Smile by Charlie Chaplin and I do not own it.


Josette hides her bullet wound in her coat but Marius sees her wound. He must help her, so without thinking he take the last barrel of gunpowder runs to the top of the barricade and screams, "Fall back! Fall back or I blow the barricade!"

"Do it and take yourself with it!" An officer says with no need to shout. Everyone has quieted down wondering of he will do it or not.

Enjorlas is just happy Josette is away and safe now.

"And myself with it." He moves it closer in but the soldier orders, "Back! Retreat! Fall back!" And all the officers follow him.

Enjorlas before congratulating him sees the midnight locks he knows all too well.

"Josette!" He yells out to her. He runs to her and she turns still hiding her wound.

"Enjorlas." She says softly and smiling.

"What are you still doing here?"

"I stayed because I can never fall fir someone else, you are my life now. I came back and I saw a man with a gun pointed at you so I shot him." She says and tumbles over unable to stand and he catches her.

"Josette? Josette, what happened to you?" He asks holding her in his arms but before Josette can answer he sees red on her dress.

He opens her coat while she tries to stop him. She does not wish for him to see her like this, after what he had said in the building.

Yet he still manages to pry it open now that she is weaker.

"Josette, no." He says in shock of the whole situation.

"I may have gotten shot while saving you but do not worry. It is but a flesh wound." She says trying to put him at ease.

She inhales sharply from pain an he holds her close.

"Do not die on me. I cannot live without you." He whispers to her.

"You will get by and live on, all you must do is think of me." Before Enjorlas can protest, Josette begins to sing to him, as a final goodbye.

"Think of me, think of me fondly

When we've said goodbye

Remember me once in a while

Please promise me, you'll try

Then you'll find that once again you long

To take your heart back and be free

If you'll ever find a moment

Spare a thought for me." She caresses his cheek for condolence.

"We never said our love was evergreen

Or as unchanging as the sea

But if you can still remember

Stop and think of me

Think of all the things

We've shared and seen

Don't think about the way

Things might have been

Think of me, think of me waking

Silent and resigned

Imagine me trying too hard

To put you from my mind

Recall those days, look back on all those times

Think of those things we'll never do

There will never be a day

When I won't think of you." She sings to him about his life going on and her life in heaven. She will always think of him until they are joined together again.

She takes off her necklace and hands it to him now that tears are streaming down his face.

"Take it and think of me. Marry me when we are eventually joined together in heaven once more." She whispers her voice hoarse as she hands it to him.

Marius is by her side stroking her hair and holding her hand while she clutches it for dear life as she coughs up blood. He wipes it from her cheek as he watches yet another one of his close friends suffer as they die.

Josette sings with all her strength so that Enjorlas can remember how strong she was, even when dying.

"Flowers fade, the fruits of summer fade

They have their seasons, so do we

But please promise me that sometimes

You will think of me."

Her breathing becomes shallow and she begins to convulse in Enjorlas's arms and he holds her tightly.

He shushes her soothingly and says, "Do not worry it will all be over soon." He wishes that it will never be over and that she recovers and lives but that will never happen with this wound even Joly, the medical student who can fix almost any problem shakes his head as if saying, "It is truly fatal."

"I hope to see you in the afterlife one day."

Enjorlas smiles sadly and says, "One has nothing if not hope."

"I will be waiting for you." Elphaba whispers. She reaches up to kiss him but her heart stops she gives Marius's hand one last squeeze ad she dies before she is able to kiss him one last time.

Enjorlas kisses her dead lifeless body anyway.

He will never hear her accented voice again, one he loved ever so.

He will never see the way she was brave and unafraid to do what she believes is right or her loving compassionate nature.

He will never feel her soft touch again.

He will never see her bold beautiful green eyes again, now that they are shut forever.

He wants to say his final goodbye to her even if she may not hear it in the flesh, maybe her soul will.

"Your eyes

As we said our goodbyes

Can't get them out of my mind

And I find I can't hide

From your eyes

The ones that took me by surprise

The night you came into my life

Where there's moonlight

I see your eyes

How'd I let you slip away

When I'm longing so to hold you

Now I'd die for one more day

'Cause there's something I should have told you

Yes, there's something I should have told you

When I looked into your eyes

Why does distance make us wise?

You were the song all along

And before the song dies

I should tell you, I should tell you

I have always loved you

You can see it in my eyes."

Marius bends down and kisses her forehead as a goodbye now feeling empty at the loss of his dear friend. He also kisses her hand before placing it gently, as if not to wake her, over her wound. First Eponine and now Josette. He cannot bear to lose anyone else.

Leblanc, or his real surname, Valjean is also at a loss. He has only spoken to this young woman once for a brief moment and she has taken a piece of him with her warm welcoming smile. He is here to protect Marius for his darling Cosette for their love is true and passionate. Yet Enjorlas's love of Josette is no less compassionate and loving. He prays for her soul so she may be welcomed at the kingdom of God and for Enjorlas's soul, so that he may have relief from his suffering.

Enjorlas hugs her body and kisses her once more before Couterfrac takes her body and places it gently with the others. Enjorlas cannot let her die in vain. He will try his best to win, and he wants to kill the officer who murdered his dear beloved Josette, his one true love.

The hurt had now passed and the anger is let through. His anger at the city for taking his love. He places her necklace around his neck and stands tall, now that his heart is gone.

Now that night has set in, Enjorlas goes to lie down but cannot find sleep now that Josette is now no longer in his arms.

He just watches the stars and wonder where Josette is right now.

Marius goes to Enjorlas and sings,

"Smile though your heart is aching

Smile even though it's breaking.

When there are clouds in the sky

you'll get by.

If you smile through your fear and sorrow

Smile and maybe tomorrow

You'll see the sun come shining through

For you.

Light up your face with gladness,

Hide every trace of sadness.

Although a tear may be ever so near

That's the time you must keep on trying

Smile, what's the use of crying.

You'll find that life is still worthwhile-

If you just smile."

He tries to cheer up Enjorlas and get him to put on a strong front for the others and for himself.

That the pain will be there but he can get by because life is better, he will have Cosette possibly one day.

"Thank you, Marius." Enjorlas says giving a little smile to show he got the message. But his muscles are shot and he feels weak from the pain in his chest, even though his heart is gone. Josette took it with her to the afterlife. He hopes that she is happy in heaven.

One has nothing if not hope.
