7: Cosplaying.
You have no idea how hard it was to come up with this idea and how much vine I had to think. Let's just say I'll probably be hangover as fuck tomorrow.
Also, because it's not exactly clear in this part – my headcanon Eponine is dating Cosette, and she's grunge blogger, while Cosette is a total hipster girl with dip dye hair, and they're both so cute I just can't. More of them to be found on my tumblr.
Unbetad, no proofreading and all mistakes are entirely to be blamed on me and my progressing alcoholism.
"No way." Enjolras shook his head so fiercely one of his perfect locks smashed him in the face. "There's no way I'm doing it."
"Come on, it'll be fun." Grantaire smiled misheviously.
"Listen, I love you, but there are lines I'm not exactly willing to cross."
"Just this once?" R's voice was dangerously close to pleading and Enjolras realized that he probably won't be able to resist if his boyfriend would use his pleading voice. "You'll have fun, I promise. I want to paint this so bad, you have no idea how perfectly it all looks in my head, man."
"I knew it was a bad idea to show you this website." Blonde groaned. "Tumblr ate your brain."
Grantaire shrugged, smiling his lovely smile, the one Enjolras was sure was meant only for him. That wasn't fair. "Pretty please?"
"Fine."
"I'll make up for it to you, I promise." Grantaire smiled even wider, and, honestly, it was a bit frightening.
"I can't wait." Enjolras' voice was dark. "What exactly you want me to do? Who am I suppose to...cosplay? That's the word?"
"Yes. I want to take a picture of us dressed as Sherlock and John, Cosette promised to take photos, have you seen her pictures? They're really good, if only she changed the topics a little bit..."
"Wait, you too?" Enjolras interrupted.
"Me too what?" R frowned.
"You too are obsessed with this series?"
"Have you seen it? It's fucking brilliant. And this guy..."
"Shut it before you'll say too much." Enjolras said dryly. "And I will have to make you sleep on the couch for the next week."
"Anyway, the painting will be amazing, believe me."
"Like I ever doubted it." He sighed, stealing a chaste kiss from Grantaire's lips.
The photos turned out amazing, with two of them standing together with serious faces, Enjolras in long coat and with blue scarf around his neck, his hair covered with wig Eponine managed to found on some website she took all her bizzare clothes from, and Grantaire in leather jacket, somehow managing to look less gloomy and dark than usual.
Just as amazing was the painting Grantaire painted on huge canvas and hung in their living room.
And somehow this become their tradition, and soon the whole apartment was full of Cosette's photos of two of them cosplaying various characters.
And they had fun.
Just like was promised.
