Musichetta's POV
I know I should be excited about winter season, Christmas present exchanging and partying with Les Amis but everything seemed to be ruined now and it's all because of that bastard Marius. I can't believe what he said to Ep and what he did to 'Sette. Arghh! Just thinking about him makes me want to smack him right in the face. In fact, I'm just gonna let it out. I can't believe that fucking idiotic bastard Marius and now I've changed his last name to pomegranate, considering I hate pomegranates and I hate Pontmercy and they both start with 'P'. Who in the right mind would break up with 'Sette, the sweetest, most innocent, and kindest girl ever reduced to this. I hate him and this is why I'm so angry. I decided that I, Eponine and Cosette had a little chat in the cafeteria today at lunch and I wasn't expecting what should've been expected. That idiot Marius was walking toward our table in slow motion with sunglasses and a smirk. I don't like this at all. I think I'm gonna slowly walk away. "Hey 'Chetta. What do you say you and me hit my dorm room? I'm totally free today." He said. Why that little shitty asshole! I should give him a piece of my mind. If he wasn't a Les Amis I would have probably punched him already. He stepped a little closer as I stood up and replied in the most angry voice ever, "DON'T YOU DARE TAKE ONE STEP CLOSER! YOU BASTARD! YOU BROKE UP WITH MY BEST FRIEND SO YOU CAN ASK ME OUT AND DON'T EVEN THINK THAT I DON'T KNOW THAT YOU ASKED EP OUT FIRST! GET AWAY FROM ME! NOW!" He made a disappointed look and then walked off. "AND I HAVE A BOYFRIEND, BY THE WAY!" I shouted after him and sat down. Ep touched my shoulder and 'Sette gave me a glass of water. "I'm okay, guys. I just...blew up." I said, smiling. Ep and 'Sette got up from their seats and grabbed my arms. They dragged me up the stairs and we soon arrived to my and Joly's room. They busted the door open and found Joly on the couch, reading a book. "Hey, girls." He said with a smile.
"Why did you drag me here?" I asked, trying to untangle my arms from Ep's and 'Sette's arms. I finally broke free and ran to join Joly on the couch. "We just wanted to talk to you. Alone." Ep said, more aware of Joly than she ever was. Joly shrugged and put his book down on the couch. He stood up and said, "Well, I won't be bothering you now. Have fun!" He said, gave me a kiss on the cheek and walked to the door. As he grabbed the door knob, he turned around and said, "Oh, and if someone gets hurt, you'll find me in Bossuet's room." He walked out of the room and left me with Ep and 'Sette. "You see, this is why I like your boyfriend." Ep said. What?! "No, no! What I mean by that is I like your boyfriend because he does everything for you and he really loves you and gives you privacy. I don't mean like I have a crush on him, 'Chetta." She quickly added. I laughed as 'Sette disappeared from my sight. "Don't worry about her. She wanted to get some fresh air outside." Ep said. I nodded but couldn't help feeling like she was a little...out of her mind after the break up and she's been doing very weird stuff lately. "I have a feeling 'Sette is a lunatic. Don't you think?" I asked Ep when she came back from my kitchen with bags and bags of chips. She opened a bag and grabbed a handful of chips. "Have some." She said with her mouthful of chips. I shook my head. "No thanks. Pontmercy has given me enough to lose my appetite for one week straight." I said, almost barfing at his last name. "I think he changed...a lot. Especially after the break-up. They both changed drastically. 'Sette turned into an Amanda Bynes and now Marius is being an ex-Courf. What the hell is going on in this world?" Ep said, throwing her hands in the air exasperatedly. "It's probably because they both need each other." I said, giving in the urge to each some chips and scooped up a handful. "Then why did they break up? I mean, they were such a cute couple and they were practically meant for each other. It's crazy how people can be strangers at first, then friends, then more than friends, then back to strangers again. I can't believe he broke up with her just to be a, let's face it, playboy." Ep said. I nodded in agreement and shove some more chips into my mouth. "Oh! Now I remember! 'Chetta, wait here." Ep said and ran to get her backpack from her room. After a while, she came back with a pink letter in her hand and her backpack in another. She put the backpack on my shoe shelf, sat back down on the floor across from me and opened the letter. I joined her on the floor out of curiosity. "What is it?" I asked.
"It's a letter from someone to 'Sette. It came this yesterday and I didn't get a chance to open it. It's addressed to 'Sette, though, but she was crying about the break-up and I didn't want to show her, just in case it was from him." Ep said.
"What does it say?" I asked. She read, "'Dear, Cosette. I know I was very vile with the text but I just wanted to say that I'm sorry. I have a feeling that I am starting to have a crush on someone very close to you. It came as a surprise for me and I never knew she was so cool and nice and kind. I heard rumours that she liked me since 6th grade and that she still does. Now I'm regretting I never knew how great she is and I fail to accept the fact that I never actually dated her. I don't think dating you is bad or anything but it won't work out any longer. Forgive me, Cosette, but I will have to say goodbye...maybe for forever. But I promise not to forget all the things we did together and all the great times we spent together as a couple. I hope we can still be friends. Your friend, Marius Pontmercy'." We sat silent for a while, not knowing what to say about the letter. "I'm glad you didn't give it to her. I can't imagine how she'd be now if you did." I finally broke the silence. Ep nodded, folded the letter back to how it came and tucked it in her jean pocket. "He is just plain mean and nasty. There aren't enough adjective able to describe him anymore. He's just...I don't know. An asshole? I think you called him enough just now already." Ep said, walking over to her backpack and put the letter in the backpack. She came back to sit down again and put some more chips into her mouth. "He fucked 'Sette up real hard yesterday morning and I believe I didn't tell you this but I woke up yesterday morning and she was singing wrecking ball in the bathroom with her underwear and bra. She showed me the break-up text and I told her to wash up and dress up for school but when she came out, she was a total wreck. She looked like Ke$ha in Tik Tok. Then she started having mood swings and started doing crazy things. She cried a whole lot, too." Ep explained. I gaped for a while, taking in the information. 'Sette never was like this. "Oh my gosh. Are you making this up?" I asked. She shook her head. "You think I'd make this up just to humiliate my best friend? Doesn't sound like me." She said.
"I just can't believe it. Were you surprised to see the never-before-seen 'Sette? I'd be totally dumbfounded if I were you." I said just as 'Sette burst through the door. "I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE! I JUST CAN'T!" She shouted, sobbing. She collapsed on the floor near the door and started crying her heart out. I and Ep glanced at each other before rushing over to 'Sette. "What's going on? Why are you crying?" I asked her, pulling her hair away from her face. Her hair was a mess and it looked like she didn't wash it for a week or two. Thank goodness she wasn't wearing any make-up because it would've literally splashed on her face, which would have looked awful. We helped her up to the sofa. "Marius." She mumbled under her breathe. "What's with Marius?" Ep asked her. 'Sette wiped her tears and sniffed her nose. "He...He was flirting with five fucking girls at the same time! How could he?! How could that fucking asshole flirt with FIVE FUCKING GIRLS?! AT THE SAME FUCKING TIME! THAT SHITTY BASTARD CAN'T GET ENOUGH, COULD HE?! FUCK HIM AND ALL THE GIRLS HE FLIRTS WITH! EVERY. SINGLE. FUCKING. GIRL! ARRRGGGHHHHH!" She screamed, pulling her hair, almost ripping her head apart. I and Ep sat there, mouths hanging open. We didn't know how to react to her unusual behavior. She never swore, like, ever. "Flirting? With five girls at once? Well, that's interesting." a voice said at the front door which appeared to be Joly's. We whipped our heads to the door's direction and saw Joly leaning on the door frame with a couple of books in his hand. "Uh...that's nothing you have to be aware of, Jol. Everything's alright." I chipped in before anyone could say anything and pulled Joly into the room. "Then why is Cos-"
"We'd better be going now. Bye, 'Chetta. Bye, Joly." Ep said, pulling 'Sette up from the sofa and walked back to their room. I closed the door and sighed, leaning on the door. I closed my eyes and let out a 'whew'. I opened my eyes and froze. Joly was staring curiously at me from the entrance to the kitchen with a glass of water in his hand. I smiled innocently as if nothing happened. "You've got a lot of explaining to do." He said, smirking.
"I don't think so. Do you seriously want to hear about a close friend of yours almost doing something with your girlfriend? I don't think you would." I said, walking over to the couch as Joly sat down next to me. "What are you even saying?" Joly asked, turning on the TV. "Well, Marius asked me out today and he said, 'hit my dorm room' so I guess I think I know what he meant."
"YOU AGREED?! SO YOU CAME UP WITH THE EXCUSE TO TALK TO YOUR FRIENDS BECAUSE YOU WANTED TO HAVE THE THING WITH HIM?! YOU CAN MULTIPLY!" He cried. I laughed. "Come on, now. Why would I do that? I shouted at his face, that's what I did. Don't even think about worrying because I won't leave you that easily." I said, smiling. He smiled and wrapped an arm around my shoulder.
Eponine's POV
I closed the door to our room as 'Sette threw herself on her bed. I fumbled in my jean pocket for the keys of the room but instead, I found a crumbled piece of paper. I took it out and realized it was the secret admirer letter that flew out of my locker yesterday. The school fountain? I told 'Sette that I'd be back in about an hour, put on my coat and left the room. I walked down the stairs nervously, wondering who my secret admirer might be. I finally reached the school's foyer and walked out of the entrance door. I started twisting the paper around in my hands and my palms were staring to get sweaty. I took a deep breathe and walked to the fountain. No-one was there yet so I sat at the edge of the fountain, waiting. Just then, someone tapped my shoulder.
Cliffhanger! *wicked laugh* R&R!
