Chapter 7: Maria Hates Eponine

By the next day, Liz still wasn't talking to Eponine. To make matters worse, she had told Maria about Eponine's date with her boyfriend at lunch last Tuesday and now Maria wasn't talking to her. Eponine was happy that she still had five good friends: Enjolras, Cosette, Theo, Tony and Marius.

"Eponine, I'm sure Liz'll forgive you," said Theo. Eponine smiled sadly at Theo and continued eating her mushy Macaroni and Cheese. It was a week later and Eponine, Theo, Enjolras, Cosette, Marius and Tony were eating lunch together.

"I hope Liz doesn't stay mad at you forever, 'Ponine," said Tony.

"I hope so, too, Tony," said Eponine sadly.

"I'm sure you two will make up," said Marius. Eponine smiled at her boyfriend and sighed. They continued talking, but were interrupted by the first warning bell.

"Ugh! I have math!" said Cosette.

"I have PE," said Tony.

"I have U.S. History," complained Theo.

"We have Choir," chimed in Marius and Eponine.

"I have English Literature with Liz. I'll try to talk to her today," said Enjolras.

"See you in health," said Eponine. She and Marius went to the choir room together, holding hands and talking.

"I thought this day would never end! It's the weekend!" said Tony excitedly. Marius, Eponine, Enjolras, and Cosette smiled at him.

"Where's Theo?" asked Enjolras.

"He left health early. Said something about a doctor's appointment," said Eponine.

"Oh. I was hoping that he and I could get together and do homework," said Enjolras.

"Enjay, your mom doesn't let anyone over at your house, remember?" Marius reminded him.

"Oh, yeah, forgot about that," said Enjolras in a sad voice.

"I hope Theo talked to Liz," said Eponine.

"I talked to Liz and she said she's mad at you for transferring to French 2. I will try to get you two back together," said Enjolras.

"Thanks, Enjolras," said Eponine.
