Author's Note: Hi Everyone thank you so much for the great reviews, you have no idea what they mean to me. I smile every time I read them.

Disclaimer: Not a chance :(

I waited a couple minutes before following him. He must have felt my presence for he turned around quickly a few times, but I was faster and he didn't see me.

We arrived at the cute little cottage and I saw Enjolras visibly relax, probably because he knew this wasn't the docks or a "pleasure house". Thank God to our advantage Cosette was outside looking at butterflies in the dark. Enjolras threw a pebble at her feet to get her attention. She looked up and cautiously walked over to him not recognizing her twin. As she got closer I could see her trying to see if it was truly her brother and when she got to the gate she gasped in happy surprise.

"Brother? Is it really you?" she asked him timidly, the answer to this one question would make my suspicion a fact and I strained to listen.

"Yes it is Cosette" he said trying to keep the excitement in his voice. "How have you come to this place? I was told you and 'Ponine were sold down in the docks, is she with you?" he asked with the most emotion I have seen out of him all day. Seems like he doubted his suspicions of me.

"I was never sold to the docks, brother," she told him, "neither was Eponine, a kind man who knew our mother took me away from Eponine's parents and he raised me as my own.

And it's awful what's happened to 'Ponine, her parents lost the inn and she lives all over now and she is forced to steal to keep herself alive. It's somewhat better now because Gavroche was taken in by a group of boys," she informed him. He looked mortified at what he had missed, and if I know him (and I do), he is probably blaming himself for my predicament.

"I know, I am the leader of the group, but I have heard nothing of Eponine. Oh here I almost forgot here," he handed Cosette the letter and explained, before she could thank him and the reunion could go on I heard some voices coming down the alley.

"Who is this hussy?" I heard my father ask harshly to one of his gang members.

"That's your brat Eponine," he stated, "don't you know ya own kid? Why's she hangin' about 'ere?"

"Eponine your not needed in this, we're enough 'ere without you," he said in a harsh whisper trying not to alarm anyone nearby that he's trying to rob this house, meanwhile Enjolras and Cosette were arguing about Marius.

"I know this house I tell you," I said trying to buy time, "there's nothing here for you, just the old man and the girl, they live ordinary lives." I could tell he was getting frustrated with me.

"This doesn't concern you Eponine," he growled, "leave."

"I'm gonna scream, I'm gonna warn them here," I said knowing he didn't want the police on his back.

"One little scream and you'll regret it for a year," he threatened. I opened my mouth and I screamed as loud as I could. I saw Cosette run inside, but Enjolras was nowhere to be seen.

"You want to scream!" my father yelled at me, I spit to his face as a reply, he wiped it off angrily, "I'll make you scream alright!" he raised his hand and I instantly prepared myself for the blow, but it never came. I opened my eyes to see curly, blond hair and the back of a red coat.

"You know Monsieur it is incredibly rude to hit a women," I heard the man in front of me say, he was holding my father's wrist.

"Don't I know you boy?" my father asked snatching his wrist away.

"Most likely," he replied. I saw my father give silent orders to his gang and they pulled Enjolras away from me and pined him against the deteriorating wall behind us. His head hit the wall with an audible thump and they punched him in the stomach for good measure. Two of my fathers goons held me back.

"Enjolras!" I exclaimed as I struggled against my father's men.

"So boy, do you think you can play hero and just not pay for it?" my father asked ignoring me, "that's not how things work around 'ere, so we'll be happy to teach you, boys," they pushed him against the wall harder and punched him relentlessly, I had to stop them from beating him senseless. I elbowed and kneed the men holding me I ran to Enjolras, taking a few hits, and pulled him up. He shoved me ahead.

"Run 'Ponine as fast as you can to the Cafe de l'ABC," he yelled punching one of my dads men, I knew he actually meant the Cafe Musian, I had the feeling he wouldn't take my arguing so I ran.

"Head her off at the Cafe de l'ABC," my dad barked at the goons. "I got the boy."

It took me ten minutes but I made it safely into the Cafe.
