Hey! So here is the next chapter! Please tell me what you think :)
When Marius awoke the next day, He found that he was all alone. He looked in all the rooms in his house, but Eponine was no where to be found.
Marius stumbled into the kitchen and sat down. Rubbing the sleep out of his eyes, he tried to remember what happened before he blacked out. All that he could remember was that Eponine said the baby was his. When he thought about it, he could remember the glorious night that they made the baby.
He sighed as he remembered the way Eponine looked at him, with passion filled eyes and a flirty smile. He was drunk. Everyone was, as they were celebrating the victory at the Barricades. He recalls that he was the one who made the first move, that he was the one who went over to Eponine and kissed her passionately on her plump lips, that he was the one who dragged her to the first bedroom he could find, that he was the one who ripped of her clothes violently so he could touch her, kiss her.
He felt a shiver run down his spine, and turned around to be faced with Cosette.
" Co- Cosette! What are you doing here? I thought you left?" Cosette looked down at her shoes, wiping them on his carpet, leaving a stain of mud on it.
" I just came to collect my things, Marius. I hope you and Eponine are very happy together." With that she began to walk in the direction of their bedroom, but Marius grabbed her arm, stopping her.
" Nothing happened with me and Eponine! I swear!" He pleaded to her.
" Oh, please Marius! Don't you dare lie to me!" She shouted at Marius, Scaring him a little. " I've seen the way you look at her, with eyes full of longing. It makes me sick, Marius! And I Know that she looks at you like that to!"
She walked off, to their bedroom and began to pack her things in a small suitcase. Marius followed her.
" Do you think she loves me?" Cosette sighed. She knew she should let him go, But it hurt her to tell him.
" Yes. She does very much Marius, and you love her. You need to tell her how you feel, before it's too late." She turned away from him, determined not to let Marius see her cry.
" I'm sorry Cosette, for all the pain I have caused you. Hopefully one day, you can forgive me?"
She turned around to face him. " Maybe. One day."
Eponine Shivered, as she walked around the streets of Paris. It was late. And very dark, but Eponine couldn't face going back home. Going back to Marius.
She walked for a bit longer, just wandering down a random street, not caring where she was going, When she gave up and decided to go home.
By the time she got there, she could see a candle burning through the window, which meant Marius was awake. This made Eponine very excited and she ran as fast as she could, being pregnant, up the stairs to his house. She opened the door, only for the smile on her face to immediately disappear.
" Hello Eponine." A cold voice said.
" Cosette."
