AN:I would like to dedicate this chapter to @sammyJaneBarks.  Your stories make my day and I just hope that mine will be as amazing as yours one day! Xxxx

I love you eponine.  And I'm not going to watch you die.

Eponine POV

The first thing I thought when I felt the soldier's bullet pass into my body, was the obvious thought. I'm going to die.

The second, thought came when Marius shot the solider that had shot me.  Cosette. I had saved Marius by sacrificing myself.  I admit that made me feel good about myself, but I worried.  Would he survive the remaining battle? I had been watching him daydream over cossete for days on end knowing that he could never see me that way.  So lying on the ground, I was worried that he'd get himself killed before he could live his happy ever after with Cosette. 

Then my final thought.  This came just as I was about to slip away. Lips crushed down on mine and in surprise my eyelids flung open. I expected to see Marius.  Instead I saw enjorlras.  He was saying something. I love you eponine.  And I'm not going to watch you die. 

It was in that moment that all my feelings for Marius were vanquished.  Never to be felt again. I had enjorlras and the final thought that escaped my lips was :

I love you too enjorlras. More than the world.
