Chapter 2: Grantaire's Decision
::It is morning when all the Barricade Boys awake from their drunken stupor with only vague memories of the night before. Enjolras, of course, is missing from their ranks, having gone away the night before. Marius is curled up in a corner, mumbling about his ripped suit jacket, and Grantaire is mumbling something about absinthe, as usual, when an unexpected visitor drops by..::
Grantaire: I want my absinthe back, Combeferre. You spilled it last night.
Combeferre: Not-Uh.. I blame Enjy!!!
Prouvaire: Enjy wasn't here!!!
Combeferre: Oh.
::Grantaire and Combeferre are deep in discussion over how 'Ferre is going to pay him back for the absinthe, when the door to the ABC Café opens and in walks a strange visitor::
Valjean: The water's so cool! And refreshing!
::All heads turn to face the visitor::
Valjean: What???
::He turns around and walks out::
Feuilly: What was tha-
::Ah.. once again he gets cut off, this time by a squirt in the face with a water gun::
Feuilly: GAVROCHE!!!!!!
Gavroche: How'd you know it wasn't Marius?
Marius: MY POOR JACKET!! I LOVE YOU, BABY!
Grantaire: Sucks to your jacket.. I want absinthe!!!
Combeferre: How about I just buy you some more?
Grantaire:: Oh.. Yeah.. Sure.
::Combeferre goes to buy him another one. Joly comes strolling over to him, and plops down next to him::
Joly: Hey Grantaire.. Can I ask you something?
Grantaire: What now, Joly?
Joly: If I sleep with you, would I get some sort of disease?
Grantaire: What...?
::Grantaire jumps up and goes over to see why it's taking Combeferre so long with his drink.::
Joly: GRANTAIRE! I love you, man!
Grantaire: Joly, sweetie.. You know I love Enjy.
Joly: But 'Taire.. I'll love you back! Please, make a decision between me and him!!
Grantaire: I.. Can't.. It's not fair! Enjy does love me!!
Feuilly: JOLY! Stop breaking Grantaire's heart and go buy a prostitute.
Joly: Will you pay for one?
Feuilly: Sure..
Joly: Ok, then..
::Joly walks off with Feuilly's money in his hand, completely forgetting about Grantaire::
Grantaire: Hm.. My love was being tested! I'll never forget you, Enjy!
End of Chapter 2
Grantaire's love has been tested, and he was sober! Enjolras is nowhere to be found. Is this the end of the barricades? Will Javert ever find Valjean? {{It's coming}} Will Grantaire ever get his absinthe? Find out in Chapter 3: Javert's Proposal
