The Unexpected Relationship

Chapter 1

A/N: Hi everyone! So this is my first Les Mis fic. Don't worry if you don't approve of Cosette and Enjolras romantically, this isn't romance. But I wouldn't like to tell you what relationship because that's for you to find out. Feel free to review on your opinion, I'd like to know. I'll be posting the first chapter to see if anyone even likes it…

Marius smiled broadly as he entered the Café Musain with his beloved. "This is the Café Musain, my love. We hold meetings here and talk about things that we plan to do in the future. Maybe even a revolution for freedom." Marius whispered to Cosette.

Cosette's eyes grew wide when Marius mentioned revolution, but immediately recovered and nodded in return.

So, Marius cleared his throat then announced, "Everyone, meet my beloved, Cosette."

Everyone turned to Cosette and silently gasped. They saw how Cosette looked like a bourgeois, but didn't look selfish. They saw how her golden locks rested on her shoulders. And they saw how she was smiling broadly at them. So, they all greeted her happily.

Cosette greeted back and acknowledged each one of them. But once she acknowledged Enjolras, both of them locked eyes, as if they knew each other. Especially Enjolras.

2:47 AM, Montfermeil

"Enj, you can't go! Madame will be very cross if she finds out that you left." Cosette exclaimed.

"Cosette, Madame won't care about me anyways. I bet she'll get over it in less than five minutes." Enjolras replied, clutching her shoulders.

"But, I cannot tell her why you left?" Cosette asked.

Enjolras nodded.

"But what will I do if she threatens or does beat me up if I don't reply to her?" She asked again.

"Just ask innocent. But if she does threaten to beat you, say the truth. I'm sure that I'll be far away by then, too far from them to find me. I know that mother is doing her best in keeping us alive, but the money that she sends isn't even helping us live. They're torturing us. I would love to bring you, but I'm afraid that they will immediately notice and might call the police or something. And if mother would send another letter, they would have no way to respond to her. Please remember that you are my younger sister and I'll miss you so much. And remember that I do love you." Enjolras replied.

Cosette simply nodded minutely before hugging her older brother for one last time, her tears pouring down her cheeks.

"Please say my goodbyes to Eponine when you can. I have to go. I shan't waste a minute longer. Goodbye Cosette." He told her.

Cosette simply nodded again then replied, "Goodbye Enj. I'll miss you."

Enjolras nodded, smiled and then quietly headed out the door of the inn, holding the little things that was his with him.

"Enjolras."

"Enjolras." Combeferre's voice rang in Enjolras' head. He immediately snapped out of his flashback and turned to Combeferre, who was sitting right next to him. "Yes, Combeferre?" He asked.

"Is everything alright?" Combeferre asked, concern obvious in the tone that he used.

"Of course, 'Ferre. Why would anything be wrong?" Enjolras asked, looking confused.

"Well how can I say that everything is alright when our very own fearless leader was staring blankly at nothing for around fifteen minutes?" Combeferre replied.

Enjolras froze. He didn't know that he was lost in his thoughts for that long. Should he tell Combeferre about his memory? In fact, should he tell anyone? Eponine! Maybe she recognizes Cosette as well. Enjolras thought to himself once more. I'll ask her once the meeting is over.

"Enjolras." Combeferre called out once more.

"What?" He asked once again, suddenly becoming self conscious.

"Your doing it again! Are you sure that you're alright?" Combeferre responded.

"Yeah. I'm positive." Enjolras replied, a bit distractingly.

And with that, he went to an empty table, stood on it, cleared his throat and then started the meeting, constantly glancing at Cosette, who would constantly glance at him, too.

Once the meeting finished, only a few people were left in the café: Enjolras, Eponine, Combeferre, Feuilly, and Courfeyrac.

Since Combeferre, Feuilly and Courfeyrac were talking with each other, Enjolras quietly made his way to Eponine.

Eponine smiled at him then greeted, "Hi, Enjolras."

"Hey." He replied shakily, smiling nervously.

Eponine's expression immediately changed. Then she asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's just that….I think that Marius' beloved was your bestfriend and my younger sister."

A/N: Okay, that's a wrap! If anything confuses you, here are the facts: Eponine also recognized Cosette's name, but wasn't sure if it was that Cosette, 'Cause, you know, in France you don't know if there was another Cosette, well, let's just say there was a little more Cosette. And, Eponine doesn't love Marius, so, that's why I didn't put her in any dialogue in the beginning. Enjolras and Marius are flatmates, because I just umm, wanted them to be. You'll see why in future chapters. Okay, please feel free to review. Now, I would like to ask you guys some questions:

1. Do you want Enjolras to confront Cosette in a private area in the café or a stroll somewhere?

2. Would you want Combeferre to be suspicious about Enjolras in future chapters?

And…

3. Did you enjoy this chapter?

Okay, that's all. Byeeeee!
