" Marius, Is everything alright?" Cosette asked. He wasn't sure if everything was alright. He smiled at her and told her he was fine.

" I'm just going out for a walk" He kissed Cosette's Cheek and walked out the door.

His head was full with thoughts of Cosette and Eponine. He loved Cosette. But he felt like there was something missing when it came to her, and that something missing was filled by Eponine.

Eponine. He smiled when he thought her name. They had be best friends for years, ever since he saved her from a brutal beating from her father. He frowned. He hated her family. They were so cruel to her and she didn't deserve any of it. Of course he knew about Cosette and Eponine's past together. It shocked him at first, but he got used to the idea that they used to live under the same roof.

He was feeling these feelings for Eponine. He was sure of it. But did he love Cosette? Or was it excitment taking over his feelings when concerning Cosette, not love?

Marius could not think anymore, because if he did, he was sure he would explode. He made his journey back to the house, buying some fruit on the way. Eponine's favourite.


Eponine was awake when Marius got back. Gosh, he is so handsome, She thought. She looked down at her hands when he came through the door, not wanting to face him, as she thought she might die because of his beauty, but she couldn't avoid him, as he came up to her.

" I've bought you something, Eponine!" Marius smiled a big smile and she laughed. He placed the bag on the table, which she sat at.

" I bought it for you to make you feel better" He opened the bag. There were 4 ripe peaches sitting on the table. Eponine loved peaches, but never had them as they were very expensive.

The thought that he had bought these especially for her, made tears fill Eponine's eyes.

" Oh No, Eponine please don't Cry, I meant this as a kind gesture" Marius was worried that he had offended Eponine some way. Eponine smiled as the tears ran down her thin cheeks.

" No, Marius you have done nothing wrong. It is so very kind of you to buy these peaches for me, I am just overwhelmed that's all" Eponine assured him.

As Eponine sat down to eat the peaches, Marius was watching her. There was something going on with Eponine at the moment. And he was going to find out what exactly it was.


Later that day, Eponine went out for a walk. It was a cold day. Eponine wrapped the shawl she wore tighter around her small frame. Her bump was showing, but she will hide it when she gets back to Marius'.

Her family didn't even care where she was anymore. They were to caught up, trying to steal things from innocent people, to notice or even care that Eponine was gone.

" `ello Eponine" She smiled. It was always nice to hear that voice. Gavroche.

" Hey" Eponine said as he gave her a tight hug. Gavroche looked at her suspiciously. She realized why. He had noticed her bump.

" Eponine, Your pregnant! whose the father? If it's some one from the gang, I'll kill `im" Eponine chuckled at his braveness. That's what she loves most about him. No matter his age, he could do anything.

" No need to worry, Gavroche! I'll tell you, but only if you promise on your life not to tell anyone else!" Gavroche nodded and said that he promised. Eponine trusted him enough not to tell.

" Remeber after the Barricades, Marius was drunk..." She couldn't say anymore before Gavroche interrupted her.

" Yes! I knew it! your pregnant with Marius' baby!" Gavroche was happy. He loved Eponine and had always wanted the best for her.

" Shush, my child, I don't want no one to know!" Gavroche nodded, smiling.

" I always knew you would marry your prince one day! Just remember to invite me to the wedding!" And with that he hugged Eponine, patted her stomach and ran off.


Marius was in love with Eponine. He was sure of that. He was also sure that he didn't love Cosette. But He was going to make himself fall in love with Cosette, even if it was the one thing he didn't want to do.
