Joly arrived about an hour after Courfeyrac proposed. "Well in my professional opinion, I think Eponine has post-traumatic stress from the abusive home she was from, and her ribs aren't any better; I see now that she broke more than we thought." Joly said removing his spectacles. "What can I do t help her?" Courfeyrac asked concernedly. "Be patient with her, know what triggers her panic attacks and how to help her through nightmares. Take a week of from school mon ami and just let her know you are here for her." Courfeyrac nodded and bid his friend adieu.
"Fey, can we just spend a day together? No maman and Gav?" He helped me stand and held me in a tight embrace, "if that's what you want." I nodded and laid back down, Courfeyrac sitting up and holding me. "I wish we could stay like this forever, I don't feel scared." Courfeyrac kissed my head, "I'm glad" i then slowly drifted off to sleep feeling safe in my fiancé's strong arms.
The next morning the Priest came and Courfeyrac and I were married infront of my brother and his maman. "Happy Honeymoon, I'm on bedrest" I said exasperated. "You'll get better soon." Courfeyrac said kissing my head. "It's not as much my ribs as it is my nightmares. How do I get rid of them and the flashbacks?" He looked at me and grabbed my hand, "with me at your side."
