Red Black Vow

Part Two

"There you are!" cried Marius. Another week, and typical for Marius to find his beloved -well, beloved is what he thinks of her, although most can see that she doesn't really think of him that way - at where she was. "You know it's not advisable to be here too long, or that much for that matter. You could easily be a Fallen, if you keep standing near the edge".

"What's wrong with that? It's not like I'll end up like Lucifer", she replied.

Marius hardened. "Don't joke about that, Cosette. That really happened, and I do not want my dearest friend to be the next ruler of the Underworld. I can't lose you".

"And you won't", said she in return. "Marius, I'm not a child anymore, and I'm not always a damsel in distress. I can take care of myself".

Marius sighed. Knowing Cosette and her stubbornness, he'll never succeed . "It's just... well, I just don't know what to do without you".

Hearing this, Cosette faced him."Marius...", she sighed, seeing his pitiful face.

"Please Cosette... Promise me something"

"Anything", she took his hand, giving him her classic smile.

"Promise me that no matter what, you would be always here with me. That you'll never leave me alone", he pleaded.

What first seemed as unnecessary and a complete waste of time, Eponine found herself rather enjoying it. Or more specifically, she was enjoying Enjolras' -as the monsieur had introduced himself to be- presence. Who knew walking around aimlessly, could lead to such a fascinating time for her. Along the way, the two got to know each other better. Oddly, they clicked almost immediately.

After all the arguments that the two had shared, that is.

It surprised Eponine how much they have in common. They both very much love to read, no matter what the genre. They each never fail to voice their own opinions, and admittedly, both tend to be quite stubborn.
From one moment, they were strangers. The next, practically best friends. Although, there was something about Enjolras that seemed weirdly familiar.
