May 6th, 1832
It had been a few days since Eponine had "moved in" with Enjolras. She had only intended to stay one night, but Enjolras had insisted on her staying longer.
Even though it had only been a couple of days, Eponine already looked healthier. She had bathed, so she was clean of any dirt and grime. She was eating regularly, and her cheeks were already filling out. Even Joly's mistress, Musichetta, had given Eponine an acceptable dress to wear. If Enjolras hadn't known Eponine before, he wouldn't have known she had come from the streets. It was like she was a whole new person.
"Good morning, Eponine," Enjolras said to the girl who just walked out of his room. Ever since Eponine had stayed with him, Enjolras had risen early again.
"Good morning!" Eponine said enthusiastically, with a beaming smile. "How did you sleep?"
"I slept fine," he lied. He might have been rising early, but sleeping on the couch every night had taken its toll.
Eponine saw straight through the lie, but she decided not to pursue it right at that moment. Spending four days with Enjolras really helped her to get to know him better. She had learned that he was very particular about how his house looked. He had at least one of Les Amis at his house every day. She also found how to tell when he was lying. When he lied, he looked at his feet for a split second, but then he looked right back up before anyone could notice. But Eponine did notice. Growing up on the streets helped her have a quick eye. She never missed a thing.
"What's for breakfast?" Eponine asked.
"Pastries from the cart on the corner." Eponine smiled. Of all the food she had had there, she had liked them the most.
"Thank you so much, Enjolras! They're my favorite!"
"I know," Enjolras said with a grin. "That's why I got them." She smiled again. He loved seeing her smile. He loved…
AN- AHHHHHHHH! He almost said it! :D Oh well… Sorry that it's so short. I'm camping and had to get it finished and typed before we left on Monday. The next one will be longer, I promise! Please review/follow/favorite my story. It helps me write faster. Thanks for reading! :)
