I growled at Martha as she braided my hair.

"Why do you like doing this so much?" I asked.

"I dunno. It's fun." She shrugged and braided my hair some more.

I sighed and picked up my phone.

"Hey! No phone!" Martha chided.

"I'm texting Alex, shut up." I replied, waving off her comment.

Me: Hey baby!

Me: How's it going with Peggy?

Alex❤️: Peggy?

Alex❤️: Oh I was supposed to see Peggy

Me: She'll kill you if you don't show so you should find her real fast

Alex❤️: Ok

Alex❤️: Bye

Me: Love you ❤️

I furrowed my brow. Read.

"Hey Martha?" I hummed.

"Yeah?" She responded, pulling a brush through my hair, because apparently she couldn't braid it without wrestling through it with a brush.

"Check this out." I showed her my phone.

She paused for a second then hummed.

"What should I see except lots of gayness?"

I sighed. "He left me on read."

"Ah." She simply said, and I could feel the invitation to rant.

"I don't think Alex is ok." I stated after a moment.

"Oh?"

"Yeah, he's just been very... empty recently."

"I see."

"He seems very disconnected with, well, everything." I sighed. "It's like there's a wall in between him and everything else."

"Ok..."

"Or like he's had his emotions leeched. It kinda reminds me of the blank moments he has after taking damah when his emotions are acting up." I tried to press my head into my hands.

"Ah ah ah." Martha scolded. "I'm trying to braid your hair, stop moving."

I grumbled a response but stopped moving nonetheless.

"Better." I could hear my sister's smile. "Now, tell me more about your relationship problems."

"He barely replies to anything, he seems so distant. He spends more time with Laf then he does with me and I would get it if Lafayette wasn't so annoying." I paused. "D-do you think he doesn't like me anymore?"

Martha was silent for almost three minutes. "No."

"What?"

"No, I don't think Alex has stopped liking you."

"How do you know that?"

"Because he loves you. Alexander Hamilton loves you, John Laurens. I think he's just going through some stuff, maybe give him some space..?"

"Yeah." I sighed. "But—"

"Give him space. He'll come back. I know he will." Martha places a hand on my shoulder. "I'm done with your hair."

It felt uncomfortable to listen to John talk about Alex's new 'distant demeanor' because... ya know... Chapter 5.

I braided his hair and made little comments as he went along like 'ok' and 'I see'.

I let go of his hair after tying a hair tie in it.

"Ok. Go look at yourself." I commanded, trying to take his attention off his boyfriend.

Please note: I still feel that werewolves and humans were not meant to date, but I'm trying my best to be a good sister because, again, Chapter 5.

My brother stood up and walked over to the mirror, using his phone to see his hair.

"Ooo." His eyes widened.

"I was going for 'very gay Lord of the Rings elf' did I succeed?"

"To a tee."

"Splendid."

"Thanks Martha."

"For what?" I raised an eyebrow.

"Just," He sighed. "Being here for me."

"Hey..." I smiled. "Any time."

"I'm really glad we've gotten over your stupid prejudice."

I made a look of mock offense but laughed. "I hate to see my brother in 🥖."

"I'd be upset if you liked seeing your brother suffer."

I laughed maniacally and he chuckled too.

I don't regret my actions.

Or do I?

I'm honestly not sure right now.

I layed on my bed, holding my phone over my face and (Should I make a For Forever reference? Can I stop myself?) watching AnxiousAcorn on YouTube because his art is everything. (Apparently I cannot stop myself)

I got a notification from Alex and I clicked it hurriedly.

Alex❤️: Love you too

Me: 😘

I smiled and rested my head on my pillow, turning on music and pulling my blankets up around my chin.
