Chapter 16
This chapter is dedicated to @CaptainSwan7777 & @putwomeninthesequel! Thx for the great idea!
Eliza's health and both of their happiness progressed over the days. But they were both upset and scared. I mean, who wouldn't be? Their daughter was kidnapped by murderers, and they have no way of reaching her. They both were taking it hard.
Especially Eliza.
She was constantly depressed, remembering all the things she did with Pippa and all the memories. Alex found her in a ball, crying at least 3 times a week.
So Alex decided to do the unimaginable:
He called her sisters.
* * *
"Hello?"
Alex started to sweat. When they figure out where he is, they'd probably murder him. It wasn't their decision to kick Eliza out.
"Um... h-hi. I, uh, don't know how to put this, but your sister-"
"OHMYGODWHATHAPPENEDISSHEOKAYANGELICACOMEHERE!!!" he got from the other line. That must be Peggy. Then he heard a "WHAT?!" in the background and footsteps.
"HELLO?! WHERE IS MY SISTER?! IS SHE DEAD?!" Angelica yelled into the phone
"Nonononononono!" Alex rushed quickly. "No, she's fine! Well, kind of. You see, she-"
"Wait. Is this... ALEXANDER?!"
Alex panicked. "Um... possibly?" he gave
"YOU BI-" he heard, and then a "Okaaaay. Ange, calm down! Let him talk. Here, I'll put it on speaker"
"Hello?" Alex asked cautiously
"Hey. This is Alexander, right? Like, Alexander Hamilton?" Peggy asked
"Uh... yeah" he responded
"Why are you calling us? You left Eliza, remember?" Peggy asked again
"Yeah... well, we, uh, bumped into each other at a CVS, and then we talked and got closer. And then, um, our daughter-"
"I HAVE A NIECE?!" Peggy and Angelica yelled at the same time
"Um... yes?"
"OMGWHATSHERNAMEHOWOLDISSHEISSHECUTEDOESSHELOOKLIKEUSWHATSHERLASTNAMEISHERNAMEPEGGY?!" the two girls ranted
"Woah... um, Angelica, Peggy, can you guys come to Eliza? She really needs you guys" Alex cut in
"Um... Father said we can't see our 'whore' sister anymore..." Peggy started
"Well, aren't you guys technically adults?" Alex countered
"Yeah... but Daddy said-" Peggy started, but was cut off by "Hush, Daddy doesn't need to know..." from Angelica.
"So?" Alex asked
"Where do you guys live?"
Alex gave the address and other information for them to get there.
"We'll be there in about and hour or 2. But why does Eliza need us?" Angelica questioned
"Well... our daughter, she goes to this day-care. And, um, about a month and a half ago, these guys came and took the money and some children, and she was one of them. Eliza is heartbroken still, and I feel like you guys would do a better job comforting her than I would be" Alex explained
"Oh my god... poor Eliza...she's already been through so much..." Peggy breathed
"We're on our way. Tell her to hang tight and that we love her so, so much. Got it Alexander?" Angelica stated
"Of course. Thank you, this means so much to me. To her. I just want her to be happy" Alex spoke
"Us too. Bye" Angelica said
"Bye" Alex repeated. As the line went dead, your could hear "AND PEGGY!" in the background. Alex chuckled. He remembered all the good times with the Schuyler Sisters in high school...
*Flashback*
"ALEX!" Peggy screeched as Alex threw a water balloon at her.
"Oh come on Pegs! It's just water!"
"Exactly!"
That's when Angelica walked into the Schuyler's lawn, towards them.
"Ok, guys, she's coming out" Angelica whispered, and grabbed a water balloon. They all hid behind different bushes
"Guys! Which one should I- what the...?" they could hear Eliza say. "Hello??? Where did you all go?"
Everyone looked at Alex. He gave their signal, and in seconds, they all yelled "HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" and threw water balloons at her.
"Wha- AHHHHHHH!!! That's freaking cold!" Eliza screamed.
They all started laughing and Alex walked over and handed Eliza a towel.
"Happy Birthday, Liza. Love you" he said, kissing her cheek and laughing.
"Thanks" Eliza spat sarcastically
They all started laughing and that soon turned into a heated water balloon fight
*Flashback Over*
"Alex?"
"E-Eliza?"
"What are you doing?" she asked quietly
"Um... I don't know?" he offered "I think I fell asleep".
She cocked an eyebrow and sat next to him.
"Lexi?" she whimpered
Alex's eyes widened. She never called him Lexi yet, even after all these months.
"Y-yeah?" he stuttered
"I'm scared"
Alex looked at her, shocked.
"Why is that?" he asked, and he mentally slapped himself. "Dude! " he thought. "She's obviously scared because her daughter got kidnaped! Your an idiot! "
"What will my sisters think of me?" she whispered
"Wha-how did you know?" Alex asked. He could've sworn she was sleeping. "Oh wait " he thought again. "There is also a thing called 'waking up'. Idiot! "
"I'm not deaf" she said blankly. "W-what did they say?"
"They told me to tell you to hang tight, and that they love you very much. They'll be here in about an hour" Alex confided
"O-ok..." Eliza said uneasily
"Hey. Look at me. They aren't going to judge you. Your their sister! Trust me, on the phone, they sounded like they were really concerned about you, and they felt terrible for what happened to you" Alex confided again.
Eliza smiled at him. "Thanks, Lexi" she said
"Your always welcome. C'mon. Let watch Creeped Out until your sisters get here" he said, grabbing the remote.
"Sure. Why not" she said, and cuddled up into his side
He kissed her forehead, and they sat and watched their show, waiting for the other two Schuyler Sisters to get to them.
Hai! Sry I haven't posted in a while, I had a small winter break and I went to Montreal, Canada during it, and I didn't bring my computer.
(Yeah I don't use my phone that's why there aren't many grammar mistakes or misspellings).
Hope u enjoyed! And again, thx to @CaptainSwan7777 and @putwomeninthesequel for the great idea!
