Who's Afraid of Thunder

Part 1

Eponine POV

Ever since my parents kicked me out, I've been sleeping at my friend Enjolras' house. Tonight I was so scared. I couldn't sleep; there was a huge thunderstorm. I couldn't take it anymore. I worked up the courage to tiptoe out of my room and into the hall. Enjolras' room was down the hall from mine. When I opened the door, a loud crack of thunder sounded and I screamed, which made Enjolras tumble off his bed onto the floor. I couldn't help myself from giggling. "It's not funny, Ponine". He grumbled, which made me laugh even more. When I realized he slept shirtless, I couldn't help but stare at his toned muscles, perfectly aligned. "A-Are you okay?" I asked him. "Yeah, yeah". He climb up onto his feet, "What're you doing here, Ponine?" "I-I got scared by the thunder" I managed to say. His perfect facial features softened. "Come here," he said with open arms. He pulled me into a hug. He leaned down to whisper in my ear, "Why don't you sleep here tonight?" We climbed into his bed. Enjolras was warm :D. He chuckled softly like he does, "I won't bite, you know. You can come closer". I scooted closer to him and put my head on his shoulder. He smelled good: like cherry chapstick and hair product. I looked up at him and he looked down at me. He leaned in and so did I. Our lips connected and sparks fly. We pulled apart, "I've been waiting for that for years" he said. He smiled; so did I.
