Okay so this one is Super-de-dooper-de-dooper long like in the 3,000 word range, it is actually the longest chapter I have wrote for any of my stories. so yah. Enjoy. to the people who read this.(But I'm probably writing to no one)

His may be hard to believe but Gavroche couldn't find the girl after she disappeared, no one saw her, not Marius, not Enjolras not anyone. Until three years later…

France 1832: the time of the French revolution

They had been talking about rebelling against the government and now it has come to that. The abc society was now four into, it was also the time General Lamarque was becoming even more ill and was going to die any day now.
Lamarque has a son and a daughter as I've told you before. The son was now twenty four and took the place of his father, and was now an officer for the French Government General Bernard Lamarque .

Sophie was now nineteen, she was still one of the kindest and one of beautifulest girls in France but she looked older, she grew out of her teen aged years and looked now like a young lady, she was very elegant. What happened to her for those past three years where she disappeared? When her father was not as ill he sent her off to a school in London. But hearing the terrible news of her father being able to die any day now she was sent for.

~*~•~*~•~*~

"My dear sister, I do not like to see you like this" Bernard said to Sophie, "I have called for your friend Miss. Alice Cousture, why don't you both go out to the café and have some lunch."

"I do not want to leave my father's side for fear, he will die when I am gone" I said calmly back, I wasn't the same, I used to tease my brother, and would always want to get out of the house, but the school in London was so different, I guess you could say I 'settled down'.

"The doctor said he was currently doing just fine, and anyway if something goes wrong the café isn't too far, and we would be able to get you back in time."

"I guess I could get out of the house, I haven't been anywhere since I've gotten back"

About ten minutes later, Alice showed up. She didn't change a bit, her hair was longer, and her face a little skinnier, but she was still as beautiful.

"My dear Sophie," she began when she saw me, her smile a little to perky "you look absolutely beautiful. You sure have changed on the outside but I hope the Sophie I know didn't change one bit"

"It's good to see you too, Alice "I replied

"I'm sorry it took me so long, if it weren't for those, mob, of everyone outside your house I could have gotten in better."

"The mob of what?" I asked confused because for one I hadn't heard anything

"Oh you know" she stopped and thought for a little "that group of boys who always protest in front of buildings, anyway what do you say we go to the café you haven't been here in three years so you have got to be craving something."

"Okay" I said, Alice was such a talker and I had never noticed that until today.

We walked outside and I'm not joking when I say this I think almost the whole town was there.

"When's it gonna end?" a boy named Courfeyrac called out

"When we gonna live?" an older man shouted out

"Something's gotta happen now" another boy named Jolly called out

"Something's gonna give!" a beggar called out

"it'll come, it'll come, it'll come, it'll come, it'll come,"
And I will tell you when I say this, and I mean it, I had never thought I would here that voice again, and I mean I hadn't even thought about that said person or said persons remarkably attractive voice.

"Where the leaders of the land? Where are the king who run this show?

It was Enjolras, he didn't see me, I was glad, I hadn't thought of him at all.

"Only one man, General Lamarque, peaks for the people here below" Marius Called out, he tried he was rich but he lived poor.

Courfeyrac went up to Enjolras and turned around to tell him something, so I pulled Alice, out of the way of his sight, I wasn't ready to see him, well, have him see me.

Enjolras turned back around to the crowd of people "Lamarque is ill and fading fast! Won't last the week out, so they say."

I looked down, I knew what my father did wasn't right but he was my father and I loved him and the thought of him dying made we get teary eyed.

"With all the anger in the land, how long before the judgment day?

"Before we cut the fat ones down to size?"

Then everyone yelled "before the barricades arise?" it wasn't really a question more of a statement, but then people went sort of crazy,

"Sophie?" I looked up it was Marius; he seemed shocked that I was back here.

But before I could answer back, his Grandfather was there

"Marius!" he yelled

"Grandfather?" he looked shocked

"Do you have any idea what sort of shame you bring on our family?" he replied

Marius didn't say anything he just stood there looking at his grandfather until, (and I didn't even notice him) Enjolras was right there next to him. Right next to me,

"Marius?" it wasn't really a question more of a 'are you coming or not' I stood there shocked frozen he was literally right there next to me, and I was eyes wide, and quickly looked away.

"Feat General Lamarque!" Marius shouted to his grandfather

Then my brother and other officers came on horses, pushing the crowd away, and I watched them but as the horses took over and the crown was trying to fight everyone started yelling "Vive la France! Viva la France! Viva la France!"

I just stood there watching them I looked across the front of the crown and that's when I noticed the red coat, and the curly blonde hair, looking right at me, it was like a different person came over him, a person who was willing to fight, a dream he knew that would never be, someone with hope, and still love in his heart.

It only lasted a moment, but it felt like we were the only ones there, he stared at me and I stared back the gaze held for a while, he did s little smile, and I smiled back, and it was just us, not people, but we weren't together it was like an invisible force that was keeping us apart, and it was as if he was trying to fight to get through it. But the moment only lasted for a second because the next I was being pulled to the complete opposite side of the street he was on, and I was woken up by Alice's voice saying "Sophie. Sophie. SOPHIE!" and then I felt a shake and I woke up from the dream into reality, and all I wanted to do was curl up into a ball and cry.

~*~•~*~•~*~

"Sophie!" Alice yelled

"What?" I asked confused why she was yelling at me

"you haven't been listening to a word I said since the big mob" she said "what's going on in your head"

"nothing I'm fine" I replied

"no theirs definitely something going on in your head, and I want to know"

"I've been away for three years, I forgot all the nonsense going on here"

"sure. I know you're lying to me but I don't want to get into it so I will just eat, no talking what so ever."

She was right there was something on my mind. Enjolras, I loved him, I thought I got over hi but I didn't I was so deeply in love with him, I couldn't really comprehend it.

"did you here? Annabelle is engaged?" I knew Alice couldn't stop talking for five minutes so I just laughed.

"What?" she asked as if I was crazy or she had speared icing all over her face.

I just kept laughing, almost uncontrolabling.

"What is it?" she asked then she looked around "tell me! People are starting to stare"

I was laughing when I said it so it sounded like a dying hyena.

"you can't stay quiet can you? And you always are gossiping about someone or something" I was still laughing.

"she just sighed took another sip of her tea then when an older man walked by she asked for the time.

"THAT'S THE TIME?" She yelled "I HAVE TO GO!" she got up and got her things then started away.

"wait where are you going?" I asked

"I have to go help my brother with something, and I completely let the time slip away!" then she started out the door before turning around and saying "I'll see you later!"

I sat up but then realized she left and hadn't paid, so I leaned back down. And sighed.

"you look so different" it wasn't a statement more of a fact but that familiar voice sent chills down my back.

I turned around and saw tall figure looking down at me with a smirk on his face. "Do you mind if I sit"

"oh. No." I said and motioned toward the chair in front of me.

"wow three years" he said "it's been too long, and you really look so different, in a way"

"well I am older now" I said

He just stared at me and smiled, but I didn't make eye contact and his smile faded.

"look," he started and I looked up at him "I was stupid. I didn't mean to set you up three years ago to have you disappear, I loved you then, but I was nervous, and didn't know what I would do, I'm sorry, and I know you could never, be the same, and I just wanted you to know that I still love you. Even the whole time you were gone away. I love you" he then grabbed my hand and I felt my eyes watering.

"oh please don't cry" I can handle if you don't love me back it's just please don-"I cut him off

"No" I smiled "I.. I.. I loved you back, and when I went away, I thought I could forget about you, but when I saw you today-" but I was interrupted with a thumb, wiping a tear from my eye, when I looked up I noticed Enjolras' thumb, and he was closer and smiling "I still love you" I finished. Then he smiled, he took my hand and whispered.

Come with me"

~*~•~*~•~*~

"where are we going" I asked as he dragged me along the streets.

"Just come on" he said looking back with a smile

He took me to a part of town I'd never been. We sat down on a bench under some trees and talked until a government horse came by.

"my brother" I said

"what about him?" Enjolras asked

"he said if anything happened to my father, he would have them come get me. But they can't see me here." I said "if my father does die do you really have to go to fight?" I felt tears in my eyes but I looked down at my hands.

"I have to fight for my freedom, for my brothers, for my friends, for you,"

"but I don't need saving"

He lifted my chin up with his fingers so I would be looking at him. "after this, revolution, I will come back for you, and we will go off and get married, and grow old together,"

I felt a stray tear go down my cheek, and he wiped it off with his thumb. I turned my face away and said "But what if you die?"

He didn't answer. He just got up and went to the other side of the bench, lifted my chin a little then leaned in his lips on mine. It was very sweet, and calm, loving, and had a sign of hope. Then he pulled away and whispered "Death can never stop true love,"

He stood up and held out his hand for me to take it, I got up, he held me in front of him, he kissed my check, then said "you should probably get going it will be dark soon, I would walk you home but, if they were to see, for your sake, it's best not for them to know.

Then I took off, back toward her home and the solders, to reality.

~*~•~*~•~*~

Grantaire POV

So I know I'm always in some way dunk, but I could have sworn I just saw Enjolras kissing some girl. And I wasn't going to let this pass so I went back to the abc café to tell everyone about what I just saw.

"You will never guess what I just saw" I said as I came in

"let me guess" Jolly said "a flying pig" then he laughed

"or a talking squirrel" Courfeyrac said then laughed

"NO!" I said in protest "Enjolras was outside there kissing a girl"

"Enjolras really?" Jolly asked

"and she was very pretty I'll tell you that, I've never seen her before. She was really a beauty, beautiful then my Abigail"

"Abigail, isn't yours," jolly said "she's mine"

"no she's mine" I said

We went on until Enjolras walked in went over to a table took off his coat, and started writing something, we all slowly walked to stand behind him.

He lifted his head up turned around and said "what?"

Then Marius walked in, then we all looked up and went back to our post.

Then Enjolras started.

"the time is near, So near it's stirring the blood in their veins and yet beware, Don't let the wine go to your brains!"

I knew he was talking to me so just to make him even angrier I took another drink of my drink.

"We need a sign, To rally the people, to call them to arms, to bring them in line!"

"Marius, wake up! What's wrong today? You look as if you've seen a ghost." Jolly said so I said "Some wine and say what's going on!"

"A ghost you say, a ghost maybe. She was just like a ghost to me. One minute there, and she was gone!"

She? She? Another one? Two people in love. Great this will be fun.

I am agog! I am aghast! Is Marius in love at last? I've never heard him `ooh' and `aah' You talk of battles to be won And here he comes like Don Juan It's better than an opera!" then I laughed "That reminds me Enjolras Who was that girl I saw you with today you seemed especially close" then I laughed again.

But he just ignored my last question

"It is time for us all To decide who we are Do we fight for the right To a night at the opera now? Have you asked of yourselves What's the price you might pay? Is it simply a game For rich young boys to play? The color of the world Is changing day by day

Red: the blood of angry men!
Black: the dark of ages past!
Red: a world about to dawn!
Black: the night that ends at last!"

~*~•~*~•~*~

Enjolras POV

"Had you seen her today You might know how it feels To be struck to the bone In a moment of breathless delight! Had you been there today You might also have known How the world may be changed In just one burst of light! And what was right seems wrong And what was wrong seems right!" Marius announced grabbing my arm but I just made an irritated face then moved.

I knew exactly what he meant, but I had to keep my mind straight, and focus on revolution. I figured Grantaire had caught on and just to try to make me crack or fess up he decided to play a game with me, but made it look like it was with Marius.

"Red"Grantaire said and Marius replied with "I feel my soul on fire!"
"Black" Grantaire mocked and Marius replied "My world if she's not there!"
"Red" Grantaire said again, and Marius said "It's the color of desire!"
"Black" Grantaire said then Marius "It's the color of despair!"

~*~•~*~•~*~

Sophie POV

"what's going on?" I asked then my brother came by took my hand and brought me next to the fire "I'm afraid father" he paused his eyes were read and puffy "he's passed"

I felt water on my checks coming out of my eyes. I cried, and cried and cried. Until I realized, the revolution. Would start. And Enjolras would die. But he needed to know so, I took of back to where Enjolras was.

I knew he lived around there, or something like that. But I figured once I got there I would be able to find him, I could ask around or something, and to just my luck I could. I saw a young boy I had seen around him with that group.

"excuse me?" I said "boy?"

He turned around.

"Could you help me find somebody?"

"of cores I could, who're you lookin for?"

Someone with the name of Enjolras"

"I know'em, he's up there" he pointed to a lighted room on the second story of a building

"thank you" I said before heading that way

"Waite!" he yelled "you can't go in there"

"why not?" I asked

"you're a girl"

"then could you tell him something for me?"

"sure, what is it"

"tell him that General Lamarque is dead, and that to meet me at the bench."

His eyes lit up "Will do" then he ran to the building.

~*~•~*~•~*~

Enjolras POV

We were getting ready for the revolution everything was going to work out

"Listen everybody!" Courfeyrac yelled
"General Lamarque is dead!" Gavroche said, very eagerly

"Lamarque! His death is the hour of fate. The people's man. His death is the sign we await!" I started "On his funeral day they will honor his name. With the light of rebellion ablaze in their eyes. With their candles of grief we will kindle our flame. On the tomb of Lamarque shall our barricade rise. The time is here!"
"Let us welcome it gladly with courage and cheer" Courfeyrac replied
"Let us take to the streets with no doubt in our hearts" Bossuet yelled
"But a jubilant shout" Combeferre announced
"They will come one and all" Jean Prouvaire yelled
"They will come when we call!" we all said

Then that girl Eponine showed up, and Marius asked her something, he looked at me then smiled then followed the young girl.

"Enjolras!" Gavroche yelled through the crowd

"what is it?"

"this girl told me to tell you, to meet her on the bench. She was the one who told me about General Lamarque dying."

"Thank you Gavroche" I said before heading down stairs, to the bench we sat at earlier.

"Sophie?" I called out I didn't see her because it was dark.

"Sophie?" I called again

"psst, psst, Enjolras" it was Sophie

"what are you doing here?" I asked

"did he tell you?"

"who tell me, what?

"that little boy I told him to tell you" she paused for a moment "my father's past"

"I know it's great!" I said then caught myself 'I mean, I'm sorry, it's, I-"

"it's okay I know what you meant"

"we're going to fight tomorrow"

"No you can't!"

"I have to for my people"

"I knew what they have I've seen what they do, you could die, every last one of you"

"let us die facing our foes, fighting for our freedom, our lives, and you"

"this is the last time I could see you! Enjolras I died when I went away I cannot, lose you again, for the sake of my heart"

"Sophie you don't understand-"

"but I do." She was now beginning to cry. "you could die, or get hurt, or be alive but not be conscious and no one would know who you are, Enjolras please"

"I'm sorry" then I got up and said "I need to go"

I started to walk away "maybe one day we will be together, after the revolution, may it be on earth or someplace else."

"Enjolras-" I could hear her crying, it was in her voice.

"I'm sorry" I said and started walking back

"but I can help you." The words came out coolly, she was the only one who could, help us, possibly.

~*~•~*~•~*~

Sophie POV

"tomorrows the funeral, it's going to be big, the people, who are for him will be the ones crying, the trick is to get in the middle of them, where the solders will less likely see you, I will be in a carriage in front of my father's casket, when I give you the signal, the revolution needs to start, they will fire some will die before the barricades, are even up, but as soon as you mess up the parade, and the first shot id fired, you need to get back and create your barricade. Their guns are strong, one strong, you might live through, depending on how, or where they shoot you, two will give you a slow long painful death, you will bleed until, you can't anymore then you die, three, you more than likely won't make it, gun point or where all the guns are on you, you die on impact. It's possible you might make it out alive, maybe not. Just make sure you have enough supplies. And for no reason must you tell anyone I told you this, there will be imposters on their side who will look like you and act like you but will not help you but kill you by leading you into your worst possible state ever."

"you truly have helped us" he kissed me on the cheek. "just One Day More, then we will be together again."

Yah. One day more.

Well I hoped you liked it, t know it was long but wow. So if their is anyone reading it please review, I sure there is nobody reading this but if you are prove me wrong and say so in the Reviews. PLEASE! Thanks.
