Eponine's POV
"What the fuck is wrong with you?" I asked Enjolras after classes were over. "You were smiling like a crazy person, and then you admitted that you like this…this "Rapunzel" of yours, then you just-UGH! I can't believe you did this!" I continued but stopped when I saw the confused expression on his façade. "Ep, I swear that this is going to be the first and last time you'll hear me say this, but…she's hot." He said, using his had to fan his face. I turned to face him and glared at him angrily. "What the hell, Enj! That's not…you. It's not the "Enjolras I know" behavior. You've changed so much in only one day. How is THAT even possible? Three days ago, you still didn't know what love is! And now, look at you!"
"That's why I said it's going to be the first and last time you'll hear me say those stuff." I made a disgusted face and turned around. He grabbed my arm and spun me to face his way. "What do you want?" I asked, annoyed. "Just help me talk to her. Please, Ep. I promise to do anything for you. Now that Marius and Cosette are dating and-"
"WHAT?! Marius and Cosette are dating?! ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?!" He grabbed my shoulders quite abruptly and tried to calm me down. "Look, I know it hurts but I'm sorry. Don't be mad at Cosette. She's your best friend and it's not like any of this is her fault." I felt tears brim my eyes as I shrugged off his hands off my shoulders and it was then when I felt someone push past me. It was Melanie. "Hey, Enjy babe. Let's go. We're gonna be late." I stopped dead in my tracks and started to eavesdrop from behind a column. "Be late? For what?" I heard Enjolras ask. "Oh, we're gonna have some…fun. And I'm asking you out, if you really wanna know." She went closer to him. So close, that their noses were almost touching. I felt like barfing at the hideous sight but I swallowed the acid back into my stomach. Then she grabbed his shirt collar and pushed her lips onto his fiercely. I didn't wait long to run out of the school and start sobbing near the bus stop. I couldn't believe what he did. He let himself suck some popular girl's face and he might as well become popular sometime between today and tomorrow. It's not that I love him or anything. It's just that he changed a lot and my fears of him becoming popular and abandoning me and Les Amis were coming true. I just sat there, on the pavement, crying my eyes out until Joly happened to pass by. "What's going on? Has someone beaten you up? Has someone…raped you?" He asked. Joly's always been a hypochondriac and he was scared of everything that related to sickness. "Joly, I'm OK. It's just the family problem, that's all." I replied, fidgeting with my torn backpack. As I twirled the torn piece of cloth around my finger, Joly hit my hand. "Ow! What was that for?"
"You know, 'Ponine. You shouldn't twirl it around your finger too tightly. It's going to make your blood flow slower. You can die." I rolled my eyes and kept my eyes downcast. "Oh my Gosh! Get up from there!" Joly suddenly screamed. "What?"
"The pavement is dirty. Don't you know how many things were on it before you came and sat here? There could've been dog poop or people's shoes that stepped on the dog poop or ANYTHING at all! You might get germs, you know. Get up! NOW!" I groaned and slowly stood up groggily. "I don't think I told you this, but we're having a sleepover tonight. At Courf's dorm room. Everyone's going to be there."
"And what d'you mean by "everyone"?" I couldn't help but ask. "You know, Courf, 'Ferre, Bahorel, Feuilly, Jehan, R, Marius, 'Sette, 'Chetta, me and you. Well, you if you're going." I thought about it for a second and asked, "What about Enj?"
"He's not…invited." Joly's reply made me really confused. "What do you mean?"
"Well, he's been acting weird about his new crush and he's starting to…abandon us. I thought we might take this opportunity to discuss the situation a bit. Without him." So my predictions were true and the results weren't planned. "Fine. Count me in, then." Joly smiled and led me towards Courf's dorm room. On our way, we bumped into Musichetta. I told Joly to go ahead and I talked to Musichetta for a while. "Where are you going?" she asked me. "We're having a sleepover in Courf's dorm room. Wait, I thought you knew about it."
"I didn't and I don't"
"Oh, well, anyway, you should come." She nodded and followed me up to Courf's dorm room. We opened the door and found everyone there, doing their own things. R was obviously drinking, Jehan was writing a sonnet on a sheet of paper, Feuilly was making paper planes, Joly was examining his own skin, Marius was making out with Cosette, Courf was texting, Bahorel was pacing the room with clenched fists and 'Ferre was reading a thick book. The attention soon turned to me and Musichetta. Everyone said their "hellos" and continued doing the things they were doing. "Hey, let's watch a movie." I announced as everyone stopped whatever they were doing and came to sit on the huge couch Courf had in the living room. Courf put in Shrek the third and we watched peacefully...until…
