((That was fast. Wow.))
Enjolras! *She fell to her knees beside him, calling for help until one of the servants came running and then was sent off for a doctor. With the help of some other servants, she managed to move him to his bedroom and then sat with him, anxiously smoothing his lank hair off his face.*

*He began thrashing, trying to push her off, before eventually settling down to twist and turn, in the clutches of a horrible dream. Periodically he called Bella's name in an anguished voice, as if he had lost her and was looking for her.*

*Bella sat next to him, talking to him softly and continuously brushing the hair out of his face. The doctor had long since come and gone, and all she could do was sit and wait with Enjolras. His anguished yells were like a knife in her heart, and she tried to quiet him with no progress. unsure of what else she could do, she began to sing an old song she'd learned back in the village from some lovestruck teenaged girls. Although she hadn't sung in ages, her voice was still as beautiful and pure as it had been the day she auditioned at the Opera, back when she'd first arrived in Paris.*
Been a busy day With some heavy seas But you've done your best Sleepy man. Let your troubles lay Let your breathing ease While I rub your chest Sleepy man. You're all done with the run of the race For today And you've got plenty of running to face Come tomorrow I'm right here Always near Always lovingmy dear sleepy man.
Not a girl I know Has better deal Than my life with you Sleep man. If I let it show How you make me feel We'll be up 'til 2 Sleepy man And you're done with the run of the race For today And you've got plenty of running to fac Come tomorrow I'm right here Always near Always loving my dear sleepy man.
I'm right here Always near And I love you My dear, sleepy man.

*He opened his eyes, still delirious, and blinked confusedly at her.*
"Bella?" *He asked hoarsely.* "Bella, I thought I'd lost you."

Shhh, no, Enjolras, I'm right here... *She smoothed his hair out of his face, watching him carefully.*

"Where are Adi and Nicki?" *He asked worriedly.* "You left with them this morning; I didn't get to say goodbye..."
((He thinks it's the Day of Angst))

*She bit her lip, continuing to smooth his hair back.* Shhh, Enjolras, just relax and sleep.

*He opened his mouth to protest but was soon back in his fitful sleep, plagued by dreams. He occasionally cried out, but for the most part just tossed and turned.*

*It was late in the night when the doctor had announced that Enjolras's fever had broken. He would awaken in a few hours. With that, the doctor departed, leaving Bella and Enjy.*

*Enjolras woke around three, looking around confusedly. He sat himself up with some difficulty but succeeded.*
"Bella?" *He asked, as if daring himself to believe what had happened hours ago.*

*She spun around and almost flung herself beside the bed, the dim light in the room catching in her hair and making it shimmer slightly.* Enjolras, thank God you're alright!

*He almost laughed, but found he was too tired.*
"Never sick a day in my life until one day I just collapse... I suppose I had it coming." *He joked lamely.*
