The day outside was beautiful, but they had the bad luck of being in class. History class, to be more specific, and everyone looked so bored. Well, maybe not everyone, you really like that class. It make you inspired, so you, instead of taking notes, were making doodles of whatever comes to your head by listening your teacher. Also, another one really like the class, Enjolras. He was quickly taking notes of the lesson, and he looked so into it.
You chucke a little bit by looking at him so concentrated. He was a friend of your friends, you didn’t knew him that well, but you exchanged words with him in some ocations, that let you know he was really passionated about his thoughts. Both of you have, actually, a lot in common. But you just weren’t that close.
Suddenly, you hear something that interrupt your train if thoughts. It was Eponine, who was sitting next, calling you. Cosette (who sits in front of you), her, and Y/N were really good friends for a long time.
“Yeah?” You said whispering, turning your head to see her.
“Grantaire is going to throw a party tonight, and we’re going. Is not a question” She said carefully, trying not to get caught.
“I guess that my history books are going to miss me tonight” Y/N smile at her, knowing that you had no choice
“You better start thinking of an outfit” She give you a smile and a wink
The bell rang, and you get up quickly, packing you notebook in your backpack, but a page fell to the ground. Before you can get it, Enjolras pick it up, and taked a look at it.
“I’m glad you payed atention to the class” he said sarcastically. “They’re really good, through” he gave you a smile, handing you the page
“They are actually about the class. They’re just like cryptic notes” Y/N return the smile, as she grab the page, and put it in her pocket. “You’re going to be at the party tonight, right?”
“IIIII-will see. I have to study, and I’m not really into parties, so…” He said while moving his blonde curls out of his eyes.
“Heeeey, we need to get ready!” Said Eponine standing at the door with Cosette next to her.
“Right, I’m going! Sorry, and thanks, Enj. As you can see, I have to go” You smile while pointing at your two friends “I hope I’ll see you tonight”
“Yeah, right. Goodbye!”
He stare at the door while she leaved, unconsciously. She had something, but he couldn’t actually point what. He have seen her at lot of their friends reunions, and she always looked so happy of see him, or listen to his ideas. And even his own friends sometimes were tired of listen to him, but not she. Also, she always looked so strong, she was not afraid of defending her, or her ideas. It was something he really liked about her
“You are staring…again…” Said Marius with a smirk, he looked the whole scene while waiting for him
“I’m not. I was just looking if you were outside. And you weren’t. Let’s go.” He said un a serious tone, grabbing his backpack.
“Oh, sure. And you looked for me with that face because you really appreciate me, right?” He laughed, and Enjolras glared at him
Y/N was already home. She moved to an apartment with Eponine and Cosette a while ago. And as soon as she arrived, she went to her closet, searching for something to wear tonight. A minutes later, her clothes were all over the bedroom’s floor, and she pulled out a pair of black jeans, a leather jacket, and she grabbed a pair a big round earring out of her desk. Now she just have to choose between two shirts, but she just can’t decide. She headed to the living to ask Eponine and Cosette.
“Hey, ladies. Which one? Red or white?” She asked, while showing both shirts
“RED! Definitely. You look really good in red” ‘Ponine smile widely
“Yeah, red looks really good on you. I have a lipstick to match that shirt if you want” Cosette added, just to keep putting eye mascara on her lashes
“I loved that! I’m going to put this on and I will come here to do my make up. Don’t miss me.” Y/N said while leaving.
“You really think that red looks good on her, or it’s just because it is Enjolras favourite colour?” Cosette asked Eponine once Y/N left.
“It looks good on her, BUT it is also Enjolras favourite colour. C'mon, you also saw her face while she was talking to him.” Eponine answered, she really wanted to be their cupid.
“Well…I think that it could work.” Cossete laughed a little while saying it.
Y/N was ready. She put on her outfit, and finished it with some black shoes. She did her make up, top. Using Cosette’s red lipstick, and some mascara only. She was hoping to see Enjolras, she actually really liked him. Him, his passion, his voice, the way he talked, her hair, everything. But she never try anything, maybe she don’t know him that much, but he listened from his friends how he is always so immersed in school and in his rallies, and he never seemed to have enough time to have someone else. But, anyway, she wanted to see him.
The three friends arrived to Grantaire’s house, and knock the door. They weren’t sure if they would listen their call, because the music was very loud. But someone finally answered, it was the host.
“Three beautiful ladies knocking my door, I’m so lucky” Grantaire say, clearly a little drunk already. “Please, come on in. The guys are over there” he added, while pointing to a corner of the living roon.
They know that Grantaire would invite a lot of people, but all of you were really surprised when you saw how full it was. Marius, Joly, and Courfeyrac were sitting on the couch, Bahorel was standing against the wall, and Enjolras was sitting on the floor in front of them. His friends really insisted him to attend the party, and he finally acepted. The blonde, as always, had his red jacked, with a white shirt with the word “Revolution” under It. He had a frown, like most of the time, but when he saw Y/N arrive, his eyes light up.
“Hi!” said Eponine, once they were close the group.
They all greeted the three girls. Once Cosette saw Marius, she went and sit in his lap, smiling at him, and whispering him things at his ear.
“Damn. We just arrived and we already lost one.” Said Eponine, joking, while grabbing a bear.
“Only two women standing. Who will be next?” Y/N added, keeping the joking tone, and laughing. She grab a beer from the table, and she sat in the floor, next to Enjolras. “Look who finally came” She gave him a friendly smile.
He chuckle, turning his face to see her. She looked really pretty tonight, and he thought that red was definitely her colour. “Yes. I just couldn’t say no.” He said while giving a gaze to their friends.
“Yeah, I get you.” She say while watching Eponine, standing next to her.
The group of friends exchanged jokes, and have fun through the night. They didn’t move from that corner once they settle. Grantaire come near, he was pretty drunk now, and once he saw Enjolras and Y/N sitting un the floor togheter, he thought that they looked cute.
“Hey, Ponine!” R said, putting his arm around her. “What do you think about leaving them alone?” He smirk while looking at Y/N and Enjolras, laughing togheter. A smirk appear in Eponine’s mouth too, and she nod.
“I really like your shirt. It’s actually really…you” she said looking at his shirt, moving him a little with her hand, to see better the shirt.
“Thank you, Y/N” He felt how his cheeks blushed, and he looked away. Just to see how they were now alone “Hey…and the others?” He make confusion gesture, looking for the others, but there was a lot of people, and he couldn’t find them.
“I…don’t know. Maybe ‘Ponine found someone. I won” she said victorious.
“Okay…?” He didn’t fully understand what she say. “Hey, I didn’t tell you before, but you look really pretty tonight.” He said, smiling at her.
“Thanks, Apolo” she winked at him, before taking a sip of her beer. “You too, I think I already told you that…oh, no, before I was talking about your shirt. Anyway, you look pretty, not only your shirt. But your shirt it’s pretty too.” She was trying to stay cool, but she was really nervous, and it was evidenced when her face blushed. He focused on her, and notices the blush. She looked adorable.
Grantaire change the song to something more slow, to help them.
She’s a certified mind blower knowing full well that I don’t. I may suggest there’s somewhere from which I might know her. Just to get the ball to roll. Drunken monologues, confused because, it’s not like I’m falling in love I just want you to do me no good…and you look like you could. Come on, come on, come on…
When he listened to that, he grabbed her hand. She was distracted, but she looked at him as soon as she felt his touch. They looked at each other for a while. Both felt their hearts beating faster, as they get closer to each other. He took a moments to admire her face, over those pink lights. She just looked into his eyes, always so blue, always so bright. He suddenly break the silence.
“Can I?” He said as he was getting even closer. Y/N didn’t want to interrupt the moment, so she just nod. He pressed his lips again hers. They really need that, a moment for them, they didn’t feel anything but the other’s lips. He put his hand on her cheek, and the kiss grew really passionate.
Everyone was cheering at the distance, really happy for their friend. And the song continued.
Come on, come on, come on. Before the moment’s gone. Number one party anthem.
