Chapter Eleven – Honeymoon part II

11 AM, the 9th of September in Étretat

Éponine's POV

I woke up with the sun shining on my face.
I looked next to me for Joly, but he wasn't there.
''He must've woken up earlier than me'' I thought.
I got up, stretched my legs and walked to the window.
''Today seems like a beautiful day. Maybe Joly will teach me how to swim today'' I thought when I looked outside.
I quickly bathed, dressed myself and walked into the kitchen where my Joly was.
I walked up behind him and wrapped my arms around his waist.
He turned around, wrapped his arms around my waist and gave me a kiss.
''Good morning, my Sleeping Beauty.'' he said chuckling.
''Good morning, my Prince Charming.'' I said smiling.
He laughed and said ''Well I can't really say that I am Prince Charming, but thank you.''.
I laughed and gave him a kiss.
''So, what are you cooking, my Prince Charming?'' I asked him.
''Just some eggs for breakfast, my love.'' he said.
I nodded and sat down at the breakfast table.
''At what time did you get up?'' I asked him.
''I got up at 8 am. You were still sleeping so I thought that it'd be best if I wouldn't wake you.'' he said smiling.
I nodded and started playing with a table napkin.
''Joly, can you teach me how to swim today?'' I asked him.
He turned around and said ''Of course I can.''.
I nodded and said ''Thank you, my love.''.
''No problem, my beautiful wife.'' he said while turning the stove off.
I smiled.
We finished breakfast a hour later.
I felt nauseous all of a sudden and ran to the toilet to throw up.
Joly held my hair up all the time.
He carried me to the couch when I was done.
He layed a hand on my forehead and said ''Hmm. You aren't running a fever.''.
He sat next to me and looked deep in thought.
He all of a sudden layed a hand on my stomach.
''Joly, what are you doing?'' I asked.
He looked to me with twinkling eyes and said ''Éponine, I think you are with child.''.
''W-what m-m-me w-with c-child? He and I have only been together twice.'' I thought.
''When were you supposed to have your period?'' he asked.
''Oh dear goodness. I was supposed to have my period on the 7th of September, the day after our wedding night.'' I thought.
''Well I was supposed to have my period on the 7th, my dear.'' I said
He sat there with a huge smile on his face.
I didn't know what to do. Should I smile or should I cry? He is 22 and I am 18.
''Am I not too young to be a mother?'' I thought and frowned.
Joly stopped smiling when he saw that I was frowning.
''What's wrong?'' he asked.
''Well aren't we a bit young to be parents?'' I asked him.
He smiled and said ''No, we aren't.''
I nodded and layed my head on his chest.
''Here's to 9 long months.'' I thought.

Joly's POV

''I am going to be a father!'' I thought happily when I found out that Éponine was pregnant.
I kissed the top of her head and held her in my arms.
''Nothing can destroy our love now.'' She said.
I couldn't do anything but agreeing with her.
''What do you want to do now, darling?'' I asked her.
She thought for a minute and then said ''I want you to teach me how to swim.''.
I smiled and said ''Let's get ready then.''.
She nodded. I picked her up and carried her to our room.
We were standing on the beach 20 minutes later.
''Let's go into the sea.'' I said to her.
She nodded and grabbed my hand.
We walked towards the sea.
''We first need to get used to the water.'' I told her and she nodded again.
We splashed water at each other and I let myself fall forwards.
''You stay here while I am going to show how you swim.'' I told her.
''Okay.'' she said. I started swimming around and she looked to me.
''Do you want to try it now?'' I asked her and she nodded.
She let herself fall forwards and I catched her.
She started swimming around as soon as I let her go.
''Have you swimmed before or something?'' I asked her.
I couldn't believe that she hadn't swimmed before.
''Okay. I lied. I did swim before, but I was very little. I didn't know that I still could swim!'' she said.
I laughed and gave her a peck on the lips.
''I forgive you.'' I said smiling.
''Can we go back now?'' she asked.
I smiled and said ''Of course we can go back.''.
We started to walk back to our apartment.
Once we were back in our apartment we walked to the bathroom to bathe together.
We ate dinner after we bathed and went to bed after washing the dishes.
I couldn't describe how happy I felt today.
First finding out that I am going to be a father, then swimming together and then bathing together.
I am always happy as long as Éponine is by my side.
