The kids are all in high school now. Angelica is a Sophmore Phillip is a Junior.

Angelica's POV
I threw on a pair of jeans and a red off the shoulder blouse. See what I like about Miranda High is the dress code. As long as it wasn't too revealing we could wear what we wanted. My grey timberlands seemed to be calling my name so I slipped them on. I put on my daily makeup which was eye shadow and mascara and put my brown hair up. It was my first day of high school today, don't judge me for looking a bit nice.

"Angelica! Did you take the curl treatment!?"

"No! Check if Phillip did!" Since Phillip and I have our Father's hair, we use the same products as him. My dad thinks it's unfair that we won't tell him our secrets of the curls.

Now normally people are nervous on their first day of high school, not me. I am absolutely ecstatic! My brother said high school is a hell hole but we'll see about that. Last year was fine. I was ready to go.

I walked down the hall to my parents room and casually walked in. My dad was reading in his bed while my Father blow dried his hair. I climbed in the with my dad and cuddled up against him.

"Hi daddy." He set his book down on the bedside table and hugged me.

"Morning my dearest. Are you ready for your first day?" I nodded. He smiled. "Good. Now you and Phillip are going to hang out in my room until school starts okay?"

"Sounds good. Oh I can't wait! How much longer till we leave?"

"In a little bit my dear. Your brother asked for donuts for breakfast last night so pit stop at Krispy Kreme?"

"Yes! I need to go wake Pip. I'll be back." I ran out of his room and carefully opened the door to Phillip's room open. I crouched down beside his bed and moved his curls out of his face.

"Hey Pip. Time to get up." He groaned and sat up. "Morning sleepy head." I handed him a hair tie knowing he was probably going to shower.

"Morning Ange. Look at you. My baby sister is all grown up, it's your first day of Sophmore year." He wiped fake and real tears from his face.

"Oh Pip. I'll always be your baby sister. Now, go shower. You're hair needs to be washed it's kinda greasy." I wiped my hands on his bed and he laughed but walked to his bathroom. Mind you it was 4:30 in the morning. This was normal for our family.

Every morning we'd get up at 4:00, shower, eat breakfast, have some time together, then be at the school by 6:45. For most people that's crazy but we love it. My parents always work late so we like to have some time built in where we can spend time together.

"Angelica! I figured I'd find you in here. You're phones blowing up. Here." My Father handed me my phone and I unlocked it to see Nathaniel texting me like crazy.

FrenchFryJr.:Angelica.
FrenchFryJr.:Angelica
FrenchFryJr.:I know you're awake.
LilHamilton:Yes? Do you need something?
FrenchFryJr.:Ready for your first day again?
LilHamilton:Absolutely! Wanna catch ride? I know we leave early but, it seems as you're already up.
FrenchFryJr.:My dad said it's okay as long as it's okay with Uncle Alex and John.
LilHamilton:Let me ask real fast.

I turned off my phone and ran to my parent's room.

"Can Nathaniel ride with us to school this morning? Uncle Laffy said it was okay."

My dad shrugged before looking at my Father. "Sure why not. Tell him we'll be there at 6:00."

"Okay." I skipped back to my room while my parents whispered about something.

LilHamilton:They said it's fine. We'll be there at 6:00. Get ready. I gotta shower. See you soon.
FrenchFryJr.:Bye Angelica. See you soon.

Even though I was already dressed, I decided I wanted a shower. I hopped in the shower and quickly washed myself. I blow dried my hair and brushed it. Now I loved my curls and the length but it takes me fifteen minutes to thoroughly brush my hair because my hair reaches my mid back. I only had a bra and pants on when my brother walked in my room.

"Hey Ange do you-oh my god! Put a shirt on!" He turned his back to me and I laughed.

"You act like this isn't the first time you've walked in on me wearing just a bra." I put my shirt back on and spun him around. "What do you need?"

"Oh just wanted to say we're leaving in five." I nodded and grabbed my bag. I threw my boots on and walked out my room with Phillip.

We walked downstairs to see my parents standing by the door ready to leave.

"Come kiddos. Took you long enough. Now we're picking up Nathaniel before getting food. Buckle up." My Father drove, much to my dad's dismay, to the Mulligan-Lafayette household. They made me get out and I knocked on their door. Laf opened it and hugged me before calling Nathaniel down.

He came into the doorway wearing a pair of jeans, black vans, and a plain grey v-neck shirt. He looks cute. No Angelica! No thinking like that! You're focusing on school.

"Hey. Come on. Everyone is waiting for us." We walked to the car and slid in the middle between Phillip and I.

"Morning Nathaniel."

"Good morning Uncle Alex, Uncle John." He buckled his seatbelt in and then put his backpack on the floor by his feet.

"I hope you're hungry. We're getting donuts and coffee." My Father pulled out of their driveway and onto the main road.

"My dad just force fed me a new crepe recipe but I'm still hungry." I laughed. His dad is always cooking old and new recipes.

After a few minutes of driving, we made it to our destination. We got out and thank God it was open this early in the morning. The five of us walked in and I immediately knew what I wanted.

"Angelica what do you-"

"Two hot glazed donuts and a strawberry berry frosted with a medium hot French vanilla latte. Honestly dad I'm surprised you haven't memorized this."

Phillip, Nathaniel, and my Father laughed while my dad payed for everything. We decided we'd eat in my dad's room at the school.

I walked into the high school for the first time ever. My parents, my brother, and my cousin were greeted by Mr.Woodhull. Mr.Knox retired three years ago and Mr.Woodhull stepped in. I actually like him better.

"Alex and John. Hello Phillip, Nathaniel. Who is the young lady?"

"Angelica Hamilton. Pleased to meet you." I held my hand out for him to shake it and he did.

"Ah Angelica. You're a Sophmore this year correct? Welcome to back Miranda High. I didn't see you much last year."

"Thank you Mr.Woodhull."

"We'll see you around Abe. We've got to eat." My dad pointed to the box in Phillip's hand. Mr.Woodhull nodded and we walked upstairs to my dad's room.

"Alright, pull up a chair and we'll eat at my desk." Unlike his desk at home, this one was neat. He put the box on another table out of the way and I grabbed one of mine. We ended up laughing and having a good time.

"Seriously no way! That's impossible!"

"Oh Ange, but you did. Nathaniel was there too!" I remembered what they were talking about but pretended not to know.

"I'm pretty sure you acted the same way when you saw Les Mis so fight me Pip!"

"It was In The Heights! I don't know why you were so excited but it was adorable!" Phillip ruffled my hair and I playfully pushed him away. Did I forget to mention that my Uncle wrote a play?

Ever heard of In The Heights? You probably have as it's a huge Broadway musical. My Uncle Usnvai wrote it about his life. It's like a musical version of an autobiography.

We were laughing and having such a good time together that we didn't hear the bell ring. Some of my dad's students walked in and sat at their desk. My dad sighed before hugging and kissing us all.

"Bye!" We waved and went to our respectful classes. Alright high school hear I come.

Time skip
Alex's POV
I was sitting not in my office but at the dining room table grading papers when Angelica walked in. She had been at Theo’s for a while after school.

"Hey dear. How was your first day? Mine was awful." I saw her grab two wine glasses and she filled one up. She brought it over to my before filling the other up with sparkling red grape juice.

"It was okay. I made a friend."

"Oh what's her name? Maybe you could invite her over one day."

"His name is Julian." My mouth fell open. Oh no. She met a guy.

Angelica's POV
I recall my run in as if it just happened a second ago.

~Flashback~
I walked to the office to grab my stuff for Chorus. I'm the student director for it this year and I'm only a Freshman!

As I was walking out of the office, a guy who seemed to be in a hurrying bumped into me.

"Oh my Lin! I'm so sorry. Let me help you up." He held a hand out and I took it. Once I was on my feet, he introduced himself. "I'm Julian. Julian Tallmadge."

"Angelica, Angelica Hamilton. Where are you headed?"

"Chorus. I want to be there before the student director."

"Well hello future student and classmate. Come we'll walk together."

And boom. First friend of highschool.
~Flashback over~

Alex's POV
"So Julian. Is he nice?"

"Yeah. I found out he's like head over heels for a boy named. Daniel. I want to tell you more but I have homework." She kissed my cheek before going upstairs to her room with her glass. I sighed and pulled out my phone.

Nonstop:Guys. Code Blue!
WaitForIt:Shit! For who?

Code blue meant one of our children had met either a guy or girl and we think they could either be a future in law or danger to our child. Yep totally cool parents.

InThePlaceToBe:I swear to God if this is another false.
Nonstop:It's not I swear! Everyone, Hamilton residence, PRONTO!

Needless to say the chat blew up and within ten minutes they were all here and on my couch. John even came downstairs from painting.

"SPILL!" They all yelled at once. I sighed

"So..."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Y'all thought. Hah! So if you can't tell, I like to put more attention on Angelica. I want her to have a major role in the story and not just be 'Phillip's sister'. All the people you love will still be in it but I want to include Angelica more. Au revoir my beautiful turtles.🐢❤
