A/N: Yay thank you for all your lovely reviews! Haha I see you guys like my car thing… Touché. What does touché even mean? Oh well, here's another chapter! Sometimes I feel like Les Amis can be the biggest fangirls of us all. SEE IF YOU CAN SPOT THE HARRY POTTER REFERENCE! Good luck!
Eponine smirked knowingly at everyone's shocked faces; they all looked ridiculous, and even Enjolras seemed to have frozen. In the next instant, everyone slowly craned their necks in unison to gawk at Enjolras. Some of Les Amis seemed shocked, and Jehan started to tear up as he got in touch with his romantic side.
"This is a joke, surely you can't be serious?" Bahorel said with a forced light tone as he tried glanced nervously between his leader and the gamine. But he wanted to take back his words when they both gave him the most severe glare that they could muster. Now that Bahorel, and all the other Les Amis for that matter, thought about it, they weren't that surprised at all. From the brief times that they had actually seen Enjolras and Eponine standing together in the café, it was obvious that they cared a lot about each other. Enjolras' marble façade had been slowly cracking, and now they realized it was because of Eponine.
His fiancé.
"This is so beautiful; two lovers who came from vastly different backgrounds found a way to be together through the hardships of society. Nobody saw it coming, yet it happened fast and passionately and the two bec-"
"Shut it, Jehan!" everyone shouted before Jehan could get too far into his romantic rant. Courfeyrac stepped forward looking intensely between the couple.
"I knew it. I knew it! Did I not predict that Eponine and Enjolras would fall in love?" he sighed happily, but was disgruntled when everyone shouted 'NO!'
"You barely knew Eponine, and just a month ago you said Enjolras would never find love!" Prouvaire argued. "I was the one who said that Enjolras would find love soon."
"No, I was!"
"Liar! I clearly predicted it when we were meeting here just three weeks ago and I said that he had been looking happier in recent light!"
"You never said that!"
"I was the only one who had ever really met Eponine! I gave her bread and milk one night when it was raining outside and we talked about Enjolras!"
"Oh yeah, Combeferre? You said that Eponine appeared to be overall indifferent towards him! I was the one who noticed that they seemed to have a special connection when they were in the café a week before they left!"
"You weren't even there!"
"I was there! You weren't there!'
This argument was like space; it never had an ending. Eponine was about to shoot somebody.
"ENOUGH! I know this is surprising news but you are handling it like a babbling, bumbling band of buffoons! Of course you would act like children upon hearing such jovial news!" Eponine exclaimed exasperatedly causing Bahorel to drop Combeferre from his headlock.
"Yes, it is true: Eponine has agreed to marry me. Anybody care to protest?" Enjolras challenge as he gripped Eponine's tiny hand in his. Bahorel stepped forward and raised his hand, but he quickly retreated when Eponine shot him a glare. He backed up so fast that he tripped over a chair and went sprawling on the floor. Joly moved to help him, but Enjolras held up is hand and stopped Joly's actions.
"Leave him there," he said solemnly.
"He could have gotten a concussion! Oh my, what if he's dead?" Joly stressed.
"I'm not dead you butter muffin," Bahorel grunted from the floor, but Joly still seemed worried.
"I know that you all may be surprised, and this is a very enormous matter, but there is a time to celebrate and that is not now. The revolution draws steadily nearer, and we need to be prepared. An unorganized army is destined to be a failure, but with my plans we will be able to defeat our foes before they know what hit them! With the help of Colin, success is inevitable. With Eponine, I have something real to fight for. Now, who's with me?" Enjolras shouted passionately raising his and Eponine's intertwined hand.
At first, the silence in the room was deadly, but then all at once Les Amis jumped up and cheered for their leader.
"They don't have a chance against us!"
"Enjolras is the greatest leader to ever live!"
"I still can't believe Eponine has agreed to marry him!"
Enjolras groaned as he realized that he might have a lot more preparing to do than he initially assumed.
A/N: Sorry for the shortness of the chapter but I had to do it! I promise the next one will be longer. This chapter made me giggle…
