Ten
"Cosette, please for the love of God, put the other skirt back on. It matches so much better." Heather suggests. Heather and Grantaire are over at Cosette's helping her get ready for her date with Marius.
"Are you sure?" Cosette wanted to make sure she looked good.
"Yes, please!" Cosette then goes into her closet to put the skirt on. Heather gets a text.
"Cosette!" Heather says loud enough that she can hear.
"Yeah?"
"Kevin's here! I'm gonna let him in!"
"Ok!" Cosette responds. Heather goes downstairs and Cosette walks out of the closet with the skirt on and shows it off to Grantaire. "Is this better?"
"I think the other skirt was better." Cosette starts to panic, "I'm kidding! You look amazing."
"You butthead!" Cosette jokes and throws the other skirt at Grantaire. "I want tonight to be perfect. I've had a crush on Marius for so long now."
"Tonight will be perfect! You look great, Cosette. He's gonna think that too."
"You're right, R." She smiles at him. Heather walks back into the room with Kevin, Enjolras behind them.
"Oh hey, Enjolras," Grantaire starts, nervously shifting in his chair. "What are you doing here? I mean not that I don't want you here because I do- Well not like I was desperately hoping you'd be here, just that I wasn't expecting it."
"Kevin asked if I wanted to come."
"Yeah, Grantaire. Enjolras is kind of part of our group now. Is he not?" Kevin said crossing his arms.
"No no! He is! I was just... shocked... that's all. But not like shocked in a bad way or anything, it was just a surprise. But not a bad surprise! I like surprises! Especially when-"
"R, honey, stop while you're ahead." Heather interrupts.
"Right." He says then shuts his mouth. Enjolras goes to sit down on the edge of Cosette's bed right by the chair Grantaire is sitting in, crossing one leg on the bed but leaving one dangling. Kevin goes too look at Cosette's outfit. Heather goes into Cosette's closet looking for something.
"Looking hot, Cosette! The skirt matches perfectly." Kevin says giving her a high-five.
"I don't know why I'm getting so dressed up, it's just ice cream. What if he thinks it's too much!"
"You're over thinking things! You're not over dress I promise, you look cute for a nice little ice cream date." Kevin hypes her up. He looks at her and sees she's panicked. "Breathe with me, Cosette. In" she breathes in "and out" she breathes out. They do this a couple more times until Cosette is finally calm.
"Aha!" Heather pronounces. "Found the perfect purse!" She walks out of the closet holding the purse over her head triumphantly and hands it to Cosette.
"Eek! It matches perfectly! Thank you Heather!" Cosette takes the purse then goes around her room to put what she needs in it.
"Hey Cosette?" Heather says.
"What time did Marius say he was gonna be here?"
Ding dong the doorbell rings.
"Now I guess." She stands in shock and doesn't move.
"... are you gonna get the door?" Kevin says slowly. Cosette shakes her head still shocked and not moving.
"Heather, you're gonna have to help me." Heather opens Cosette's bedroom door and Kevin grabs Cosette's arm and pushes her out. The three of them go downstairs.
Enjolras awkwardly looks around the room not knowing what to do. He looks over at Grantaire who's on his phone and kicks his feet lightly.
Grantaire looks at his feet, then to Enjolras.
"What was that for?"
"I don't know." Enjolras shrugs his shoulders. "I think Cosette looked great. What do you think?"
"I think so too. I don't know much about Marius so if the date goes wrong I'm gonna kick his ass."
"You don't have to worry about him, he's harmless. My other friends and I have been teasing him all week saying they're boyfriend and girlfriend and stupid stuff like that. He gets so blushed." Enjolras has an intrusive thought and wonders if he should say what he's going to say next. "Have you ever had a girlfriend?" He says it.
"What?" Grantaire's heart starts racing, he didn't even know if he heard him correctly.
"O-or a boyfriend... or anything?" Enjolras says playing with his hands not making eye contact with Grantaire.
"Uh... no." Grantaire gets chocked up, shocked by the question.
"Really? I would of thought someone would of snatched you at some point."
"Nope, I've always been single." He awkwardly laughs to himself. "What about you? Have you ever dated anyone?"
"Um. Once, in middle school, it didn't last long though. He was a pastors kid and his dad found out."
Before Grantaire could respond, Heather and Kevin walk back in.
"Hey losers, Cosette wants us to stay until she gets back. Mr. Valjean said he's gonna order us pizza." Heather says laying down on Cosette's bed.
