"Come Cosette, let's go home." Said Marius helping Cosette to her feet. They walked out of the old building towards the couch that was waiting for them. Cosette had managed to pull herself together a little by know. Once they had been driving for about five minutes when all of a sudden they began to gradually come to a stop. Marius and Cosette could tell that they weren't completely home yet.

"Cosette I'm going to go see what's going on. You just stay in the couch." Said Marius, Cosette nodded (a/n Cosette is sitting very close to the door). About ten seconds later someone reached into the couch and grabbed Cosette. She saw Marius fighting with one man while the three other men were dragging Cosette away. Marius turned to see the three men dragging a struggling Cosette along. Marius gave one final punch and knocked the man out. Marius had lost sight of Cosette by know. At that moment he herd Cosette and figured that the two men must have taken her down the nearby ally. When he got to the ally he saw one man with a gun and the other two holding Cosette back against the wall. Marius realized right away that the man with the gun was Thénardier Eponine's father.

"Well Cosette, I may not have you. Remember to say hi to your dear convict father and your dear prostitute mother because no one can save you now." Said Thénardier

"Want a bet," Said Marius punching Thénardier and then proceeding to Cosette, but before he did that he picked up the gun and pointed it at the two men, " if you two do not let her go then I swear on my life that I will kill you." Said Marius and with that the men let go of Cosette and got away as fast as they could. Marius dropped the gun to his side and ran over to Cosette. He took her in his arms and carried her over to the coach. When Cosette and Marius got home Marius carried Cosette into the parlor and placed her down on the sofa.

"Cosette listen to me. Do you want me to give you your?" present asked Marius

"Why wouldn't I?" asked Cosette. Marius took a deep breath

"Because, it is a portrait of your father." Said Marius

"Show it to me." Said Cosette

"You're sure?" asked Marius. Cosette nodded. Marius walked out of the room and about a minute later came back with the portrait.

"Can we go up stairs now please go up stairs now?" asked Cosette

"alright." Said Marius, he lifted her off the couch and carried her up stairs to start their new life together.
A/n: I know that last chapter really stunk but it was the only way I could think of to end the story. Anyway I am sorry that it took me so long for me to get this chapter up so drop me a review and tell me what you think about this story.
