DISCLAIMER – I DON'T OWN LES MIS AND NEVER WILL.
Eponine woke feeling her hand on something warn as her eyes slowly fluttered open, the first thing to come into sight was pale white skin, she slowly lifted her hand to wipe her eyes, praying that the skin belonged to either Courfeyrac or Jehan because if it didn't then this could easily turn awkward and Eponine wasn't in the mood to deal with awkwardness.
Eponine allowed her eyes to travel upwards to see who the hard pale chest belonged too, her brown eyes met blue, the same shade of blue that could only belong to one person.
'Twice in one day" the voice in her head said as Eponine tried to put the pieces together, how did she end up falling asleep, not only on Enjolras's chest but also on his lap 'A girl could defiantly get used to this' the same voice said making Eponine mentally roll her eyes, only to realized she was rolling her eyes at herself.
"Sleep well?" Enjolras asked and for once seemed calm to have someone so close to him, especially a girl. Eponine felt her heart flutter as she realized he wasn't as stiff as a board for once but relaxed and calm. Ok maybe this wasn't Enjolras or else she's just dreaming. "Earth to Eponine" Enjolras said clicking his fingers in front of her face while holding a book in his other hand, keeping one finger between the pages so he didn't lose the page he was on.
"What?" Eponine asked still trying to figure out if this was a dream or not, even in her dreams Enjolras would still be reading a book so she still wasn't going to throw the idea of this being a dream out of the window just yet.
Enjolras's deep laugh echoed in Eponine's mind, making her heart flutter even more, this had defiantly got to be a dream, considering Enjolras is laughing and that only happens once every blue moon. "I asked if you slept well."
"Am I dreaming?" she asked ignoring his question as she needed to know if this was a dream, if it was then she never wants to wake up but then again if it was a dream they wouldn't be on the sofa, they would be in a bed and he would be smiling down at her, much like he is doing now.
It's obvious she either watches to many movies or has spent too much time with Jehan, talking about true love and love at first sight, everything Jehan lives by and in a way so does she. She believe you can see someone and fall in love and live happily ever after, ok maybe they've both watched to many Disney films.
"If you're dreaming then we're sharing the same dream" Enjolras replied confirming that this wasn't a dream. Eponine brought her hand up to her mouth and looked down at his chest just too make sure she hadn't dribbled on the man she was secretly in love with.
'How romantic would that be to dribble on him?' the voice in her head asked as she sighed in relief that she hadn't dribbled on him.
A nervous laugh left Eponine's lips as she looked back up at Enjolras's face feeling awkward that she was sat on his lap "I should probably move now" she said looking down at his arm that was wrapped tightly around her waist.
As if he understood what she meant, he slowly unwrap his arm from around her waist, allowing her to reluctantly move onto the sofa next to him. She wished she could have stayed there, the place she has always wanted to be but knew it would just make things more awkward between them if she didn't move.
"Sorry" Eponine mumbled looking down at her lap knowing she probably wouldn't be able to look him in the eye for the next week.
"What for?" he asked. To Eponine it as if he was trying to make her feel uncomfortable.
"Falling asleep on you" she replied her eyes fixed on her lap knowing her face must be bright red at this point. Luckily for her she woke up before his this morning which saved them both from having to deal with this but now she had to face it.
Enjolras laughed once again making Eponine look out the corner of her eye at him to see a small smirk playing on his lips. "It's not a big deal, you was keeping me warm" he replied which finally made Eponine snap her head to look at him.
"Who are you and what have you done with Enjy?" she asked looking him up and down, from head to toe. Whoever was sat never to her on the sofa wasn't Enjolras; the guy who doesn't like being touched by anyone, especially of the female kind was saying that it's no big deal that a woman was sleeping on his chest.
"Don't call me that" he groaned back as a response.
'And he's back" the voice in her head said bring a small smile to her face.
"If it makes you feel any better I'll be happy to sit back on your lap Enjy" Eponine replied watching his face, only to see the crease form between his brows. If anything she was expecting a look of horror to show on his face but it never showed.
Enjolras's lips pulled into a thing tight line as he looked at Eponine "I just said don't call me that"
"so for the man who hates being touched by a women, your care more about being called Enjy than the idea of me sitting back on your lap, being close to you?" she asked making sure she was hearing correctly.
"Like I said you was keeping me warm and you're a friend" he replied sending daggers through her heart, she didn't want to just be his friend she wanted more from him. She wanted him.
'How about I got into the kitchen and find the biggest knife and stand here while you stab me with it' she wanted to reply but bit her tongue to hold herself back from doing to.
In reality she knew that Enjolras would never want her, if he did want a girlfriend then he would want someone who's as smart as he is, who enjoyed the things he did, someone who could lose themselves in a book not someone who quit their education right after high school, who prefers to watch a movie based on a book instead of read it herself but she wanted to hope and believe that one day he will notice her and that he'll love her just as she does him.
His words 'you're just a friend' echoed around in her head, taunting her with the fact that she will probably only just be his friend but that belief inside of her holds on to the fact that she can change that and they will get their happily ever after and it doesn't matter how long she has to wait.
As his words continued to bounce around her head, she felt the anger build inside of her as she looked at him "for once I wish you'd see the finer details, you might see the whole picture but you never see the fine details" she snapped before jumping up from the sofa and storming towards the stairs.
"What do you mean?" she heard Enjolras shout after her as she climbed the stairs, her footsteps louder than they normally was, showing her anger. "Eponine" she heard his voice shout as she made it to her bedroom.
Slamming the door behind her hoping he would get the message that she wants to be alone, she pushed the chair up behind the door, wedging it shut knowing no one was getting in.
"How can someone so smart not see what is right in front of them?" she mumbled to herself as silent tears fall down her cheeks.
Let me know what you think :)
