A huge thank you to my reviewers, you have no idea how much I value your comments and opinions! :)

Um, I don't own anything (I think it's quite clear, by now XD)

"Hello? Is… is someone here?" the goddess asked tentatively. She was alone in a place she had never seen before. There was something strange in the air, like a thin pink fog that covered every surface. That colour reminded her of a chamber she had seen, once, in a white and gold palace… but she was definitely walking on grass. Where was she?

A small, dark figure appeared in front of her. Some kind of animal, perhaps, she wasn't sure. It stayed still for a few seconds, then bolted. The goddess shouted "Wait!" and ran after it.

She could see a shiny black tail appearing and disappearing in the fog, a few steps ahead of her. When it suddenly stopped, she approached it silently. It was a black cat. Still as a statue, he was looking at the sky, waiting for something. The goddess did the same. After a few minutes, the cat raised his ears; she noticed, and sharpened hers. There was a sound... it was soft and regular; she was sure she had never heard it before, but somehow it also seemed very familiar. In the corner of her eye she glimpsed a white wing.

"A dove?" she whispered.

"Hello? Who's there?" a deep, smooth voice suddenly said. The goddess' heart beat faster. Someone was there with her.

She answered "I'm here", hoping that the voice would speak again, so that she would be able to follow it and find its owner. Before she could make two steps though, someone grabbed her forearm and she almost jumped in fright. She turned and her breath died on her lips. Standing before her, an astonished look on his face, was the most handsome young man she had ever seen.

He had blue sparkling eyes, golden hair that shone even through the pink fog, and he was tall, so tall she had to crane her neck to look at his face. He had an air of solidity about him, but his golden, almost glowing complexion made her think of unearthly qualities as well. The image of a pale and evanescent water god flashed into her mind, although she wasn't sure water was the element she would associate this boy with. Fire and light, she thought. He belongs to fire and light.

"Who are you?" she whispered, mesmerised.

He frowned. "I'm… I…" He looked at her, helplessly. "I don't know. I can't remember my name."

"Strange." she murmured. "Mine is… I'm…"she fell silent.

The blonde boy looked at her smirking with irony. "Annoying, huh?"

"Very." she answered. Her pout didn't last long, though. She directed a bright smile at him, and he felt something inside him click. His heart beat faster as he smiled back. Instinct told him to take her hand, so he did. She looked surprised for a second, then her grasp tightened.

"I can't remember a thing… but I feel like I know you. My body seems to know how to act around you." he said, embarrassed and proud at the same time.

"It's the same for me!" she said hastily. "Something inside me recognized you the moment I saw you."

The emotions displayed on his face were too many and too complex for the goddess to read, but she was sure every single one of them was reflected on her as well.

They both just stayed there for a long time, hands clasped, smiles bright, eyes sparkling.

"Whoa! Their hands… look at their hands!" Marius almost shouted.

They had eased Enjolras and Eponine's sleeping figures down under an arched latticework covered in climbing white blossoms; Fantine's rose garden was one of the most beautiful spots the Palace's grounds could offer. Surrounded by flowers they both looked peaceful and content, Enjolras' head resting lightly on Eponine's dark locks. But now something had changed. Without anyone noticing, the two bodies had shifted closer, and they were now clasping hands.

"Joly, what's happening? Are they waking up?" Grantaire asked, worried.

The god of healing was already examining the couple. "No" he said after a minute. "But they're communicating. I think somehow, in their sleep, they are able to talk. Mother… has something like this ever happened before?"

Fantine shook her head. "My sleep inducing powers have nothing to do with this, I'm afraid."

"Then… will they remember everything while sleeping? We can't risk that! What's happening?" Jehan asked in worry.

"My guess… the most logical guess is… that the feelings they had for each other are so strong that they're fighting the spell. That's why they remembered bits and pieces of what was before so soon. And if they are reacting to it so strongly… there's definitely something wrong."

"Not in the spell, Mother. You and Father are infallible." Cosette declared.

"No, not in the spell. I think there's possibly something wrong in the cause of that spell. I think, my children" she looked each of them in the eyes. "that it is time to visit Fate."

Nothing seemed interesting enough to tear the golden god's gaze away from hers. Her eyes were so dark and deep and sweet and blazing and hypnotic. She was all those things, dark, deep, sweet, blazing, hypnotic. Her very essence was darkdeepsweetblazinghypnotic. He had no idea how he knew those things. He just accepted it. Besides, they felt so right.

He raised his hands, cupping her face and caressing her smooth skin. She closed her eyes and sighed. Then he sank his fingers into her soft thick tresses, a gesture that came spontaneously, as if he had already done it thousands of times.

A loud meow interrupted the moment. The goddess stepped away from him, looking for the source of the noise.

"You!" she exclaimed when she spotted the black cat from earlier. He had impossibly blue eyes. She had already seen that shade of blue. But where?

"A cat? What is he doing here? And by the way…" the god looked around, frowning. "There was a dove… she led me to you."

"I saw her too, she is beautiful!"

"Yes, she is." he said, smiling softly. A flutter of wings was heard, and then the dove landed on the boy's shoulder.

"Hello" he greeted the bird happily.

The goddess watched them for a bit, then she stooped down and picked the cat up, who instantly began purring. She pressed a kiss on his head, then asked "Why are these animals here? It's like they know us."

"I think they're here to make us remember who we are. The managed to bring us together, and… I feel all is right with the world when I'm with you." he said, firmly.

The goddess blushed. "I feel the same." she answered.

"Then let's spend some time with these two, see if we can get our memories back, alright?" he smiled.

The goddess nodded with enthusiasm, her heart bursting with anticipation.
