So enjoy
Please read and review.
"You're unbelievable" Eponine shook her head as she sat at the side of Gavroche's hospital bed. She couldn't help the smile that was present on her face due to the fact the doctor told her that she might be able to take Gavroche home tomorrow, as nice as it was not to chase him around for his bath time or anything else like that. Now she's living back in the house with all the boys it just isn't the same without the little devil.
"What do you mean?" Enjolras asked from beside her as he continued to eat the grapes Cosette had brought to the hospital for Gavroche, in all honest she should have known Gavroche wouldn't eat them and now the curly hair blonde has decided to take it upon himself to each them all.
"He has the use of one arm and he can still play video games but when he has the use of two arms he can't tidy his bedroom" Eponine shook her head wanting to kill Courfeyrac from being Gavroche his intendo DS , considering no one is allowed to touch that thing just shows he's feeling guilty about Gavroche behind here.
"That because he doesn't like tidying his bedroom where as he likes playing video games"
"Just eat your grapes and shut up" Eponine rolled her eyes at him. Only Enjolras would give her a reply like that.
"Have you finished, I'm trying to concentrate" Gavroche looked up from his game long enough to looked between the pair next to his bed before his focus went back onto the game in his hand.
Enjolras placed a grape into his mouth while nudging Eponine with his elbow to get her attention. "Did you hear about what Courf did for Jehan last night?" he asked sitting forwards to grabbed the bag of grapes off the bed and placing them onto his lap so he didn't have to keep sitting up to get one.
Eponine shook her head no as she didn't know anything that had happened with the boys for the past week since Gavroche arrived at the hospital, the only time she's been home is to shower and change her clothes when she did that she would sometimes grab something to eat other than that she spent all her times at her brothers bedside like she promised she would. Musichetta telling her to take as much times as she needed and she would find someone to cover her shifts at the café until Gavroche was better and back causing mischief.
"I personally think Chetta did most of it due to his shoulder but he covered the garden in fairy lights, candles and roses, he made this really fancy dinner before they both disappeared upstairs. From what I overheard Jehan saying he had gotten all of his favourite movies and they stayed up most of the night watching them. It's kind of nice if you think about it" Enjolras shrugged not knowing what he should think about it. He had no idea what is acceptable in a relationship and what isn't, if Courf and Jehan are anything for him to take pointer about he's learnt never to admit your love for a car or else it ends badly.
Personally if he had a fight with Eponine he would have never thought to do anything like that for her to make up for it, if anything he would just ignore it until she came to him and said she forgave him. That just proves how little he knows about the world of dating and relationships, the most he's done for Eponine is sit at her side most of the day next to Gavroche's bed and brought them food that Chetta told him to bring.
"So are they on friendly terms again now then?" Eponine asked because from what she's learnt from updated for Chetta is that Jehan isn't speaking to Courfeyrac but is still looking after him because of his arm however that words.
"I guess so, if breakfast is anything to go by, let's just say it was sickening" Enjolras pretended to gag thinking about the two boys making goo-goo eyes at each other over the box of cereal and orange juice on the table.
Eponine grabbed handful of grapes feeling her stomach rubble for hunger "You really don't like the whole happy relationship thing do you?"
"It's just new to me. You could say it's an unknown world for me, if anything I'm just trying to understand it all"
Eponine opened her mouth to reply when the door to Gavroche's room burst open as Chetta came barging into the room with bags of food in her hands, a welcome sight for Eponine and a terrified looking Joly trailing behind her, rubbing hand sanitizer into his hands. "Can someone please tell me why there are so many sick people here?" he asked closing the door as if it would keep away the germs.
"Don't hold me to this" Eponine tried to keep a straight face as she tapped her chin, pretending to think about it. "But it could be because this is a hospital"
"Babe just please sit down before you over heat your brain" Chetta pushed him down onto a chair before dishing the food out. "And for you one chocolate shake" she placed the chocolate shake onto the table in front of Gavroche which finally made him put the game down.
"But I mean they're everywhere" Joly mumbled to himself make Eponine finally laugh.
"Drink this" Chetta handed him a bottle of water.
"What is it?" He slowly took it out of her hand, giving it the once over with his eyes.
"Holy water" Chetta replied making herself and Eponine burst out laughing. "It will protect you from them"
Eponine's mouth began to water as she looked down at the double cheese burger and fries her crazy ass best friend brought her. She would have hi-fived her for the holy water joke if she wasn't busy drooling over the burger in front of her.
"The rest of the boys said they will be here in about thirty minutes, even Marius and Cosette are coming" Enjolras looked down at his phone to see a text Combeferre sent him.
"Maybe Joly is actually dying if Mr and Mrs too in love to care about friends are coming" Eponine said with a mouth full of fries and burger.
"Maybe I should go and see if I can get some tests done just in case. I have been here a lot this past week something might be wrong and the sooner we catch it then the sooner I can get treatment"
"Joly you're not dying so shut up" Enjolras glared at his friend, yes it's ok to make him think he's dying at home because the house gets a good clean but now isn't the time for him to get paranoid about dying.
"Ponine, when can I come home?" Gavroche asked with a wishful look in his eye. "I'm bored here and they only have like one TV channel and the boys can only come when the doctors say they can"
"How have you survived this long with only one TV channel?" Eponine joked at the fact his reason for wanting to come home is because they don't have good TV.
"This isn't a laughing matter; I'm surprised I'm not running up the walls in craziness"
"Tomorrow, the doctor said you might be able to come home tomorrow and I'll make sure he lets you" Enjolras told himself he would make sure Gavroche get to leave tomorrow because he knows Eponine will not be happy until he's at home and getting them to release him will make Eponine happy and that is all he wants.
He hadn't realized it until two days earlier that he likes seeing her smile, the way her eyes shine a little more and the dimples appear. Just looking at her smile made him smile and knowing getting Gavroche discharged from the hospital will make her smile.
"How is the sick one?" Courfeyrac came bouncing through the door with Jehan closely behind him which means Jehan must have forgiven him.
"I'm ok but I can't confirm anything unless I have some tests"
"Joly I was talking to Gav and you're not sick it's all in your mind" Courfeyrac shook his head at the medical student as he jumped onto the bed beside Gavroche.
"I might be able to come home tomorrow" Gavroche told Courfeyrac with excitement in his voice.
"If so then your first shake is on me"
"What are you going to do this time put rat poison in it?" Eponine asked as she continued to eat her fries.
"No and how many times do I have to apologize that this even happened, it's not like my plan was for him to end up in here" Courfeyrac shot back in defence.
"Calm down I was joking, I know it wasn't your fault and that you didn't need to apologize"
"I don't appreciate you trying to make my baby angry. Don't you think he's already been through enough?" Jehan decided to speak.
"Parking here is terrible" Combeferre said walking into the room followed by the rest of the boys. "Maybe I should find out who is in charge here and have a word about it"
"No need, Gav might be coming home tomorrow so we will not have to come back here" Courfeyrac replied knowing that if any of them allowed Combeferre to talk to someone about the parking then they would be here all night and if Ferre starts that means Enjolras will join him and before they know it, they're making plans for new parking. It's not a good idea for anyone.
"Praise the lord" Joly said in a sing song voice, pulling out a bottle of hand sanitizer from his pocket. The group all turned to look at him sat in the corner wondering what the hell he was talking about. "What I don't have to come back, if it wasn't for the fact she made me then I would be here now. No offence Gav, I care about you and happy you're ok but I don't want to die."
"I understand these places are horrible, like I said one TV channel"
"Gav get over it and Joly you're not going to die. It's not like anyone is contagious around here" Eponine shot back finally about to lose her mind. If she has to hear about the TV or Joly thinking he's dying once more then she might possibly kill Joly herself with the TV, well she might as well kill two birds with one stone.
"And how do you know, have you spoken to everyone around here to see why they are in fact here. For all we know there could be someone next door who is contagious and then we all die"
"Last chance if you don't shut up, I'll happily kill you"
"Please done hurt him, I know he can annoy you but I love him and if you kill him I will be sad and alone" Chetta said hugging Joly's side with a pout on her face.
Eponine did want to ask what happened to Bossuet because without Joly she would still have him but decided now wasn't the time, not with everyone here to listen. She will just have to wait until they are alone and then she can ask Chetta about it.
What did you think good or bad?
I know a lot of people will think this chapter is pointless but Joly in a hospital I couldn't resist it.
Please leave a review with your thoughts.
