*Enjolras carried Bella into his mother's old boudoir, a room he hadn't been in since he was 10. And even then he had been dragged in. He set her down on one of the dark blue chairs and opened the closet: every single one of his mom's dresses, unotuched. He looked them over.*
"I know they may be a little old, but I think you deserve them." *He said simply.*

Oh...*She gasped, eyes widening* Oh my god, Enjolras, I couldn't possibly...

*He took her shoulders, looking into her eyes.* "I want you to have them."

*She looked up at him, smiling slightly* I...really and truly?

*He smiled back.* "Yes." *He said, grabbing a rather large box and presenting it to her.* "And these, too."
((it's a jewelry box.))

((EEE jewelry!)) *Her mouth fell open in an endearing way when she peeked inside the box* Jewelry? Enjolras, I can't take your mother's jewelry...

*He shook his head.* "Yes, you can. She inherited this box form a very distant relative on her side--she barely ever wore it, and it's been sitting in disuse for decades."

But still... *Something inside caught her eye. She couldn't stop herself from pulling out the bracelet- it was so-* It's shiny and purple! *She giggled*

*He snorted.* "Seems you got what you wanted, and I didn't have to go and spend an exorbidant abount of money." *He smiled and drew out a necklace with some kind of blue gemstone pendant hanging from it, and put it around her delicate neck, sweeping her hair out of the way and letting his fingertips brush the base of her neck, pressing a kiss right above the clasp.* "Not that I wouldn't be perfectly happy to." *He whispered.*

*A chill swept down her spine at the touch of his lips and fingertips on her neck, but she quickly took the gemstone between her fingers and looked down at it* It's beautiful. *She glanced up, meeting his eyes for a moment* Thank you, so much... *She looked back down at the gem*

*He pressed a gentle kiss to her temple, putting his hands on her shoulders.* "Anything to make you happy." *He said honestly.*

*Bella let go of the gemstone so that it fell back against her, contrasting strongly with her pale skin. She gave a little contented sigh, then looked up at him* Enjolras...how can I...how can I ever pay you back? For everything. And please- Enjolras, I have to, I'll feel guilty otherwise. I'll do whatever you wish. Just say the word.

*He sighed.* "Bella, you don't have to do anything. I'm happy just to have you here."

Please? I don't want to be a burden, I need to do something to pay you back or I'll feel awful. please, Enjolras. I'll do anything. *Her wide blue eyes were pleading, her hair shimmering around her pale face*
((I just took a sleeping pill so I might be loopy and not notice it- just tell me if I'm not making sense. ;D ))

*He looked at her intensely, kissing her cheek very gently.* "Bella, you could never be a burden to me. You could stay here forever and I would never get tired of seeing you."
