Hello again, sorry it has taken so long to me to finally update. I am trying to keep on top of things. I do have five stories on the go at the moment, and I am trying my hardest to keep them all up to date. Everything is a little bit chaotic at the moment, as I am working two jobs, not leaving a lot of time for writing. But I really do try to keep writing because it is so relaxing to write.

Right, here we go, are you ready for the fluff? This chapter is split into multiple parts.

"Courfeyrac" Eponine smiled, cupping his face in her hands. "You are so wonderful"

He blushed, bringing her closer to lay a gentle kiss on her lips. "I have to be brave here and just come out and say it"

"Say what?" Eponine giggled

"I love you" Courfeyrac smiled "And I think I have since I first got to know you. It was one of the reasons I came out and said I would go and get Gavroche for you. I couldn't bear to see you so terribly upset"

Eponine looked up at him with her eyes wide with awe. "Fey, my Fey" She smiled kissing him softly. "I love you too, if only I had noticed your love sooner, perhaps I wouldn't have spent so much time following Marius around wishing for him to notice me"

"That is the past, my 'Ponine" Courfeyrac smiled "It's you and me now, and we can make this perfect little family. That is all I was thinking about when I watched you with Gavroche this morning, a family. That is what I want, you, me and our little man"

….

"Well Gavroche" Courfeyrac smiled holding him close as he made sure his little blanket was covering him. "I was kissing 'Ponine because I love her"

"Like when you kiss me because you love me daddy" Gavroche said sweetly tilting his head back to look at Courfeyrac better and giggling when Courfeyrac kissed his tiny button nose.

"Sort of like that, yes" Courfeyrac chuckled. "Me and Eponine are together now"

Gavroche, his brow furrowed in concentration, thought for a moment before laughing suddenly, looking from Courfeyrac to Eponine. "Mr Taire was right!"

Courfeyrac, taking a moment to remember the conversation with the smirking Grantaire, laughed leaning back to swing an arm around Eponine's shoulders. "Yes, I guess he was"

"Yay" Gavroche smiled, pressing a kiss to Courfeyrac's cheek then doing the same to Eponine before jumping down from his lap running to the kitchen.

"What are you doing little man?" Courfeyrac said curiously

"If you and 'Ponine loves each other, that means that it's like this" Gavroche said running back to them in the lounge, holding up his drawing of them as a little family

"Yes baby, we are like that, if you want us to be" Eponine smiled picking up the tiny boy to bring him back into the cuddle.

He nodded, beaming.

…

"So this has to be perfect" Eponine said, looking over her shoulder back into the lounge to check that little Gavroche was not eavesdropping.

"And it will be, I will make sure of it" Courfeyrac smiled, looking up from his laptop as he searched for the perfect party decorations.

"It's just, he's never had a birthday party before, and it will be so exciting for him" Eponine smiled.

"It will be perfect" Courfeyrac said. "Don't worry. The Amis have agreed to help, there will be decorations of cars, trains planes. Everything Roche loves. And I am sure that Gavroche will be buried under a mountain of new toys"

Eponine smiled. "He's going to love it"

"I will make sure that it is the best fifth birthday party ever, in the history of birthday parties" Courfeyrac smiled kissing her cheek. "What are we going to get him?"

"Toys, he loves them so much. He never got them when he was younger, so it feels right to spoil him" Eponine smiled playfully throwing her arms around him.

"So we're playing that game now" He chuckled swinging her up into his arms over his shoulder and carrying her through to the lounge, 'dropping' her onto the couch "you little troublemaker, you're just as bad as your brother"

"I'm not a troublemaker daddy, I'm good" Gavroche said looking at the pair of them.

"You are a cheeky monkey" Courfeyrac laughed picking him up. "Do you know what day it is next week buddy?"

"Next week, next week daddy, I'll be five!" Gavroche smiled holding up a hand to show five fingers. "Five years old daddy!"

"Yes you will little man" Courfeyrac smiled bouncing him in his arms. "You'll be the man of the house in no time at all"

…

"Happy Birthday Dear Gavroche" They sang "Happy Birthday to you"

Gavroche, the birthday boy, smiled brightly blowing out the five candles, spelling out Roche. Joly's girlfriend Musichetta had made the cake. Chocolate favoured (of course), shaped like a train and covered in sweets. Gavroche thought it was the best thing ever and just wanted to eat it.

"We can have some cake later sweetie" Eponine smiled ruffling his hair. "Now it's time for presents"

"I get presents?" Gavroche smiled looking up at her.

"What sort of birthday would it be if my favourite little man didn't get any presents" Courfeyrac smiled kneeling beside him holding out a present.

"Thank you daddy" Gavroche said, opening the present to reveal a new train for his track set. More presents came, ranging from new toys to new clothes.

"And there is one more present" Grantaire said with a smile. "But it's outside, come on then"

"Let's go Mr Taire!" Gavroche jumping from his chair onto the young man's back. Grantaire, as he promised sober for the day, laughed, holding the boy and adjusting the party hat on his hand carried him out to the shared garden of the apartment building. "What's that Mr Taire?" Gavroche asked pointing forwards.

"That, buddy, is your present" Grantaire smiled as Courfeyrac lifted Gavroche off his back. "It's a trampoline"

"It's fun little man" Courfeyrac smiled lifting him on to the play equipment. "See, bounce"

Looking confused, Gavroche nodded as he moved back into the springy fabric beginning to jump. He broke into a huge smile. "Jumpy" He laughed

"Do you like it Gavroche?" Grantaire smiled leaning against the side of the trampoline.

"It's better than jumping on daddy's bed!" Gavroche laughed bouncing up and down.

"Good luck getting him off of it fey" Eponine giggled, watching her little brother. "Thanks Taire, he loves it"

And there we have it, was that cute enough for you?

Sorry it's so short; I just wanted to get something updated. The next chapter will be longer, I promise.

Please review and let me know what you think?
