[He really only has to think about it for a moment.]
If you're serious about it, come to my place. Two weeks progress shouldn't be thrown away because you didn't have the presence of mind to get help earlier.
[He has no idea where the closest liquor stores are to him, but he has every confidence in his ability to talk someone out of leaving to buy alcohol.]
[ Grantaire’s mental map of the city is better and more detailed than any real map can get. He could name every bar and liquor store in the vicinity of Enjolras’s place—and their best liquors, but he refrains. He’s kind of too shocked to even bother. Enjolras has never actually invited him...well...to anything or anywhere. He just kind of shows up uninvited. ]
A mercy! You've secured my sobriety for one night longer, but more importantly, you’ve saved me from Marius Pontmercy.
[ Surely Enjolras can agree on how important that bit is. ]
[He can and does agree, but he won't say so over text. Marius may be a pain who doesn't quite understand what they're doing, but he has heart and passion and other things which Enjolras can't fault him for.]
How long will it take you to get here? Do I need to call you an uber so you can avoid any bars or liquor stores?

Enjolras, I'm not a child.
That being said, you may want to go with the latter. I'm not feeling particularly rebellious at this moment, but things could change.
[ With special instructions to not stop anywhere but the given address no matter how much Grantaire talks. ]
no subject
What's your address?
[He's probably got it written down somewhere, but asking here's easier.]
no subject
I am rebelling by not rebelling at all. Rebelling against myself is the most rebellious thing I've ever done.
[ Not really, but he kind of has Enjolras in a place where he is actually paying attention to him hello? and he doesn’t want to screw that up. ]

I find that hard to believe, but sure. If that helps get you through this.
I've called the uber, it should be there in a few minutes.
