Let me know if you see any mistakes so I can correct them.
I would also just like to say that I don't know if there will be an update tomorrow as it's my birthday and I don't know if I'll have time but if I do then I will update if not then it will be the following day.
Please read and review.
Eponine walked into Courfeyrac room making the group turn to look at her all with sympathetic looks which she hated the second it happened. The room feel into silence as Eponine looked between the group of odd balls in front of her, her eyes lingering on Enjolras longer than anyone else while the group of odd balls looked back at her wondering if they should say something or not.
"Enjolras told us about Gavroche, How is he?" Joly broke the silence making the awkward tension that had surrounded them slowly disappear.
"He's gone down to have surgery so all I can do is wait until he comes out again" Eponine shrugged looking at the darks hair boy lay in the bed.
"How does he feel about having to have surgery?" Chetta asked. Eponine noticed a look of guilty take over Courfeyrac's face as he tried to push a fussing Jehan away from him.
"He's happy he'll have two new scars to show his friends. According to him it's awesome" Eponine rolled her eyes while rolling her eyes. Even when he's faced with two round of surgery and a lot of pain Gavroche can still make her laugh. She couldn't help but wonder what made him so strong when she felt like breaking down.
"Eponine I'm so sorry" Courfeyrac finally spoke looking at her with the same guilty look before he turned to glare at Jehan who was trying to fluff his pillows.
"Just tell me how it happened then I can tell you if I'm going to kill you or not. Right now my choice of weapon is one of those pillows your head is currently on" Eponine placed her hands onto her hips waiting to hear what happened.
"Well if Jehan doesn't leave them alone then there's going to be nothing left of them" he glared at Jehan once again which made him slowly back away. "As for the accident, I was explaining to this lot that we were at the lights at a junction and they turned to green so I went and a car came and hit us. I think the car that hit us came through on red"
"I guess I will not kill you today as it wasn't your fault and Gav will be fine once they've found the bleeding and stopped it and when they've fixed his arm. He might be home again in a week if there are not complications" Eponine shrugged. From what she's been told it wasn't Courfeyrac fault and she knows he would never do anything to hurt Gavroche so she can't blame him for what happened.
"I'm sorry for what happened, we was going to walk but then it looked like it was going to rain and I didn't want to have Gav out in the rain"
"Don't worry about it, it wasn't your fault and Gavroche is happy that he gets two new scars to show off. If anything he loves this" Eponine sat down on the end of his bed next to Chetta. "I knew that kid was messed up. Most kids his age would be terrified but he's happy and making the nurses laugh"
"Well he will get to eat food in bed for the next week at least and we know it doesn't matter how many times we tell him not to eat in bed, he still does it. This way he doesn't get shouted at for doing so" Combeferre said which made everyone agree. It didn't matter how many times Eponine told him not to eat in bed as he will only end up with crumbs in his bed and will not be able to get to sleep because of them. He will still do it and then complain when he can't get to sleep.
"I'm happy you're ok" Eponine smiled placing her hand onto Courfeyrac's leg. "Now we don't have to listen to this one crying because he thought you were dead" she motioned to Jehan who was blushing slightly.
"I'm so sorry for having a caring nature while all of us are Enjolras's" Jehan shot back in defence while moving closer to Courfeyrac's side again.
"What is that supposed to mean?" Enjolras shot at Jehan, a look of death on his face.
"It means unlike you I can show emotion and they were all emotionless like you, which makes them just like you"
"What have I done, I've only been sat here and said nothing"
"Are you really going to argue over this?" Chetta looked between them both "He obviously cares more than Marius and Cosette as neither of them have shown up after we left them both messages"
"Would we really want them here?" Bossuet looked around the group. "I mean come on, do we really want them sat in the corner making googly eyes at each other. It's sickening"
The group groan at the thought all in agreement that it was best they wasn't here but Eponine couldn't help but think it would have been nice for them to at least call to ask if Gavroche and Courfeyrac was ok, after all Courfeyrac was the one who introduced Marius to the gang of people in this room who he calls friends.
Even if he only called to ask how Courfeyrac was she would understand but then again she learn within the first week of living in a the house with Marius just how much of a selfish bastard he is and he became even worse once Cosette came into the picture. The small amount of interested he had for anyone else apart from himself went on Cosette and not his friends like it used too.
Everyone might say Enjolras is emotionless but when it comes to his friends, if anyone of them were in trouble he would drop whatever he's doing to help them.
"He's right even when they're not together and he finally remembers who we are. All he talks about is her. I've never seen anyone so whipped in all my life" Feuilly pointed out which made the group laugh.
"Why do you think I bought them both a whip for Christmas?" Grantaire asked keeping the fake bottle of water away from his mouth long enough to talk. The group fell into another round of laughter as they all remembered the look on both Cosette's and Marius's face when they opened the gift.
"That was even funnier than the blow up doll you gave Enjolras for his birthday" Courfeyrac said causing another round of laughter. Eponine was surprised that she could sit here laughing and joking while Gavroche was in surgery but the only other option was to sit and worry which would lead to her break down.
"Seriously he was just in a car accident. I don't think he should be laughing and joking he needs to recover" Joly panicked trying to calm the group down.
"They say laughter is the best medicine" Chetta shot back giving Joly a light nudge as if to say lighten up.
"She's right Courf will be out of here probably tomorrow then Gavroche will be home in no time convincing you that you have mono or rubella or something. Marius will still be whipped and everything will be back to normal. So lighten up" Combeferre walked around the bed to where Joly was and stood over him. "Let's face it the only time the world is going to end if when Enjolras tells us he's got a girlfriend"
The group started laughing as Eponine snapped her head to look at Enjolras only to see a look that showed his wasn't amused. Her first thought was the world was going to end because Enjolras did have a girlfriend and that girlfriend was her.
"once again I would just like to point out what I am only sat here, saying nothing" Enjolras shot back at the group which only made them start laughing even harder than they already were.
Enjolras couldn't help but wonder if the only reason the group were making jokes about everything was to keep Eponine's mind off Gavroche as everyone knows how she worries about him, if that was the case then he didn't mind them making jokes about him because it will stop Eponine from going crazy with worry but if it wasn't then he would happily kill them all, starting with his so call best friend Combeferre.
"I'm surprised Cosette doesn't have Marius on a leash" Chetta shook her head. Marius follows her around like a lost puppy so she might as well attach a leash to his neck so she doesn't lose him.
"She does it's just invisible. Haven't you noticed how he's never more than five feet away from her that's because his leash won't stretch anymore?"
"She'll be scratching him behind the ear next and giving him treats every time he sits and rolls over"
Eponine shook her head as the volume of the groups laughter got louder to the point where she's surprised no one has come in to tell them to shut up. "I think that's enough we really shouldn't be talking about them like this, there still our friends even if they've forgotten that"
"Eponine's right" Enjolras agreed with her, finally speaking for the first time that wasn't in defence. "As much as the guy does get on my last nerve we shouldn't be talking about him like this"
"As much as I hate to admit it, they are right" Courfeyrac sighed in defeat, Marius is still his friend and he should be making fun of him. "Onto another subject does anyone know what happened to Clarice?"
"You're really asking about a car?"
"I love her and she loves me. I need to know what happened to my baby"
"You are aware that I am stood right here?" Jehan looked down at Courfeyrac. "When you stay things like that it hurts"
"Don't give me the pouty face; you know you have a special place in my heart just like Clarice" Courfeyrac grabbed hold of Jehan's hand. "Anyways I'm hurt you have to be nice to me"
"I don't have to be nice to you when you're declaring your love for your precious Clarice, It's just a car" Jehan shot back snatching his hand back away from Courfeyrac.
"Just a car?" he whisper yelled back. Eponine couldn't help but smile as she watched them both argue over something as stupid as a car knowing she was a part of bringing them together. "How dare you Clarice is more than just a car. We have a special bond and if you cared about me then you would understand that"
"Is this happening or am I imagining it?" Bahorel whispered to the rest of the group as the group while Jehan and Courfeyrac continued to argue.
The group nodded their heads in sync to say yes, all of them unable to take there eyes of the couple in front of them unable to believe what was happening right before their eyes.
"At times I think you just say these things to hurt me" Jehan cried throwing one of the spare pillows at Courfeyrac.
"No if I wanted to hurt you then I would"
"I wish you had of died, I never want to see you again" Jehan started storming towards the door.
"You don't mean that and you'll be back" Courfeyrac called after him.
"Of course I'll be back. Chetta is my ride how else do you expect me to get home. I left the house without my wallet because of how worried I was about you. What a mistake that was" Jehan shot back before walking out of the room and slamming the door behind him.
"I guess I'm going after him them" Combeferre said to himself as he followed Jehan out of the door.
"Why did you do that, you know how sensitive he is?" Eponine hit his leg. "You're not the one who's going to have to sit up with him all night watching romantic movies and listening to him while he companies about you. Good luck Chetta"
"Why me?" The red head groaned.
"Because I'm going to be here with Gavroche and who else is going to do it. How about we let Taire do it or even better Enjolras" Eponine shot back giving Enjolras a small smile hoping he knows she means nothing about it.
"Fine but you owe me big time for this. I better go and find him so I can get him home. Tell Gav I'll see him tomorrow and if he's good I'll bring him a shake and some cookies" Chetta grabbed her purse and left the room with Joly to find Jehan.
What did you think good or bad?
