This might have been the best condition, physical and socially, that Grantaire might have ever been in. A smile of ease occupied his face often. But so did the thought of Enjolras.
The thought of Enjolras yelling at him.
The thought of Enjolras' dissapointed looks.
But Grantaire was determined to get better. He smiled against the bottle of beer and sighed in relief. He continued painting before checking his youtube comments. He had finally started composing music again. And apparently people liked him. People really liked him.
The question was whether Enjolras would like him.
(Enjolras)
"Enjolras! I did it! I hacked their system!" Marius shouted while jumping up abruptly. He grabbed his cup of coffee before it tipped on his laptop and grinned sloppily. The Cafe turned silent for a moment and then erupted in cheers.
Enjolras fist bumped the air and grabbed Marius in a bear hugs. Jehan screamed in delight and hugged the closest person next to him who was Combeferre. Combeferre looked at Jehan with a beaming grin and then kissed Jehan.
Silence.
Jehan gasped and pulled away. A flicker of embarrassment and hurt flickered through Combeferre's eyes but disappeared when Jehan tightly hugged Combeferre. The Amis clapped and kept cheering. Enjolras smiled lightly, his thoughts clouded with Grantaire. Where was Grantaire whe-
"I think this calls for a celebration."
Silence.
Courfeyrac stared at Grantaire with his mouth wide open. In fact, everyone did, even Enjolras. There was Grantaire, their Grantaire, at the doorway leaning casually with a small smile on his face.
Taire's smile weakened slightly as he looked at Enjolras. Boy, did he wish that he could just...that he could just tell Enjolras how he felt. Clearing his throat, Grantaire grinned at Jehan and Combeferre.
"Congratulation, Amis. About time too," at this some chuckles echoed throughout the room. " Tonight at six, celebration at my apartment. To the happy couple and the thing that Enjolras finally accomplished." He smiled playfully in Enjolras's direction. He knew exactly what Enjolras accomplished.
He managed to take Grantaire's breath away, that's what he did.
