"Grantaire...I think you might need a hospital," Joly winced in sympathy. His patient cringed as Joly moved the broken hand slowly.
"I thought you were a doctor," Grantaire huffed.
Joly whined, 'In training, R. Besides, I don't have the equipment to stabalize your fractured bones."
Again, Grantaire huffed but nodded slowly.
"I'll go." Joly smiled in relief and continued cleaning the many cuts adorning Grantaire's other hand.
After the fighting outside the three rushed inside to make sure the others were okay. They were, but it got Combefere and Jehan panicked and for once for the whole party, they were not cuddling.
"Ow,Combeferre that stings," Enjolras muttered as he cleaned the cuts with some brandy. Grantaire looked at Combeferre with a cynical smile.
"Combeferre, I need to borrow that. I'm in pain." This got the medical student's attention ,and he carefully gave it to Grantaire.
"What hurts,R?" Taire shrugged and then brought the bottles to his lip. He grinned in relief as he handed back the bottle to Combeferre.
Exasperated, 'Ferre shook his head but chuckled.
"Papa, are you sure you are okay?" Cosette stood hovering over father in worry. Marius held her hand for her comfort as he watched the front door.
"Cosette, darling, as I said before, I am fine. But we all will not be. The French Government will not leave you boys alone, expecially since you are so close to overthrowing them," Jean Valjean directed this part to Enjolras who was sitting across from him. Enjolras sighed and stood up from the black leather couch. All the Amis watched their leader stand, their proud leader with an underlined bruise decorating his jaw.
"I cannot force all of you in this danger ,but I guess it is the price of the cost." Combeferre looked away, his mind racing about Gavroche who was asleep in the other room. The blonde revolutionary sighed in frustration.
"We can hide." Enjolras looked at Grantaire in horror.
"Hide? You mean run away? We are so close to overth-" Grantaire cut off the leader with a stern face.
"Exactly. You are so close. Do you want your followers, your friends to die so close to this? You can hide and still keep hacking into their systems." Feuilly and the others nodded their heads.
"Come to America," Jean Valjean pierced the silence with his words. Courfeyrac opened his mouth to argue against that point ,but Jean Valjean held up a hand to silence him.
"Nick's words are right. There is no safe place in France, they will track all your equipment. The moment you enter Amerca they will not be able to. We can leave in the early morning. I can get us all tickets." The amis turned their attention to their leader.
Enjolras paused and then answered,
"Thank you for your kindness, but I doubt you have enough room for all the Amis.""My parents have a hotel in New York. They wouldn't mind," Eponine added.
Hopeful faces looked at Enjolras and Enjolras gave in.
"New York, America it seems. Okay,this is the plan." Everyone got closer to their leader as he spoke of a way to get out of the apartment safely.
