Enjorlas

I sit there for a minute with Eponine in my arms wondering if what just happened is real or not. It takes me a second but i finally come to a realize i need to get her to at least Joly as soon as possible. I put her in the back seat of the car with my jacket under her head to keep her from loosing to much blood and i start driving a call Joly hoping he will pick up. He answers on the second ring thankfully " What could possibly be so important you had to call me i mean you literally just saw me". "We were walking out to the car and Eponine's father somehow found her and attacked her I need you to come over to my place as soon as possible" I say. Joly responds with nothing more but i quick i'll be right there and you can tell things just got serious for him. Im at the house in less than 10 minutes and Joly is there waiting for us. I gently pick Eponine out of the backseat and rush into the house. I have Joly follow me into Eponine's room. I lay her down and let Joly get to work. "What happened ?" he ask. " We were walking to the car and Eponine stopped and before i could ask her what was wrong i turn and see him" I Say " Her father then proceeded to slap her and push her to the ground after she said something to him and then i went to confront him. I guess I scared him because he ran off but he hit her in the side really hard. I was going to take her to the hospital but she insisted on seeing you and thats when she passed out."

Joly looks at her for a few more minutes, stitches and bandages her head, and then tells me she has some bruised ribs and may have a black eye. He also tells she should wake up soon and he is going to stay till then he then leaves the room so now i'm alone with her. I pull up her desk chair and just sit there looking at her so helpless and weak and I hate that i can do nothing about it. I just sit there and wait hoping she does in fact wake up soon.

Eponine

I can feel a hand touching mine but my eyes wont open to see who's it is. Finally after a few short moments they open and I see Enjorlas with a worried look across his face. I try to get up to hug him but he gently lays me back down and i realize my head is now pounding." Joly had to stitch your head up so i think it's better if you lay down". Im about to say something when Joly comes in. He comes over to make sure i don't have a concussion, turns out i may have a minor one but its not bad. He tells me may head is going to hurt and my ribs are going to hurt for a while."I'll be back tomorrow" and with that he leaves. I'm about to fall asleep and i think Enjorlas can tell because he tells me to go to sleep. "Wait don't leave me" I say. "I would never think of it" he says "I'll be right back. A few minutes later he comes back with some much needed pain medicine and he is in his pajamas. He hands me he medicine and then comes and gets into bed next to me. I try my best to snuggle up next to him in order to avoid a nightmare and i drift off to sleep.

I'm in the same dark room again, but only this time Montparnasse is in the room as well as my father. "I told you not to scream didn't I, but then again you were never good at listening" My father says."Montparnasse what do we do to girls that don't listen ?" Montparnasse don't say anything and he just comes over to me. I'm trying to say something but the words aren't coming out. I try screaming but that doesn't work either. He comes over and look like he is about to punch me square in the face. But i wake up.

I sit straight up in bed, but I then let out a scream remembering my bruised ribs. Enjorlas wakes up and see's me sitting up and pulls me into his arms."Nightmare?" he ask. I just nod my head. I can't speak i'm in pain and just scared of that dream i just has. Enjorlas lets me cry in his arms for what seems like an hour. When i look at the clock i see thats it 6:30 a.m, the time Enjorlas needs to get ready to work. "Don't you need to get ready to leave?" I ask. "I'm calling in sick this week, They understand". I decide that its to hard to go back to sleep so Enjorlas goes and makes me some tea and comes back and we decide to watch the sun rise and we just sit there in complete and uder silence. It's nice.
