Disclaimer- I do not own Les Miserables

It was early morning when Enjolras rose. He could tell because the sun was barely peeking out over the horizon, and the usual singing birds that sat outside of his window, every morning, were silent.

Enjolras sat up in his bed. That's when he realized that something was wrong. It was his bed. Why was he in his bed? Had all of that- Eponine living with him, his growing emotions, the successful rally, the up and coming revolution- just been a dream? Enjolras then looked to the right side of his bed to see a small girl lying there, sleeping peacefully. So, it wasn't a dream. That's when he remembered. He remembered their conversation about sharing his bed, his awkwardness about it, and how despite his discomfort, he was able to fall asleep fast and sleep well. It had really bothered him, but somehow, he found comfort in knowing that he had someone. She might not mean a lot to him, but she was still someone.

Trying not to wake the sleeping Eponine, Enjolras tip-toed out of his room. Enjolras then tried to put the girl out of his mind, so he could start working out some plans for his revolution. The rally had been a success, but it wasn't enough. They would need a few more, but after that, their success would be guaranteed.

Eponine awoke an hour later to find that she could smell something amazing coming from the other room.

Is Enjolras cooking? She thought to herself.

Eponine got out of bed to investigate. She found Enjolras at the stove, cooking what looked like eggs.

When Enjolras noticed Eponine, he greeted her warmly.

"Good morning, Eponine." Enjolras smiled at her, and then he turned back to his cooking.

"Good morning," she greeted. "What are you cooking?"

"I figured, instead of going out again, I would stock up on groceries, so we can cook more," Enjolras explained. "I'm not the best cook. I can make simple things like eggs and soup, but not much else."

"Well, I grew up in an inn where my mom taught me how to make a few things. Between the both of us, we should know enough to not have to eat the same thing constantly." Eponine smiled at the fact that Enjolras knew how to cook. Cooking seemed like more of a women's task. Also, upper class people, like him, shouldn't have to know how to cook. They usually had people for that.

"So, you never told me what you were making," Eponine pointed out.

"Eggs and cheese," Enjolras stated. It was rather simple, but Eponine found that it was quite tasty when Enjolras had served it to her.

"How did you learn how to cook, if you don't mind my asking?" Eponine was quite curious.

"When I was a boy, I had our family's teach me," Enjolras explained. "I didn't understand why everything was done for my family. I didn't know why no matter how messy my room got, it was always clean the next time I entered it. I didn't understand how we had so much food to eat when my parents never even entered the kitchen. Finally, I decided to do some things for myself."

"Like what?" Eponine asked. She was quite interested that Enjolras had taken it upon himself to learn how to do some things around the house.

"Cooking, cleaning, simple things," Enjolras explained. "My parents were never really happy with me for working, so I finally decided to be a bit more discreet about it."

"Why didn't they like it when you helped?"

"My dad said it was because 'people with money don't have to do the work of the poor.'" Enjolras said in his father's voice. "My parents think that the less fortunate people were put here to serve the rich. They say that that's why they're called the working class."

"That's just not right!" Eponine exclaimed.

"Tell me about it…"

AN- I know the chapter wasn't that exciting. I hope you weren't too bored. I'll skip forward a bit in the next chapter, so it'll be closer to the barricades. Anyway, have a good rest of the week everybody! Thanks for reading! :)
