7.

Angelica's P.O.V.

I started. "Well... Alexander..."

"Hamilton," He hissed.

I raised my eyebrow but continued anyway.

"Hamilton drove me home after I left your house that day... and I thought... I thought he..."

I felt tears prick my eyes so I turned around and wiped them hurriedly before taking a shaky breath and turning back to Jefferson.

"He asked me for dating advice." I finnished.

He snorted. "So? He might be asking you to..." He choked slightly on his words. "To ask you out."

"He loves my sister," I said bluntly.

The Virginian's eyes widened noticeably and his jaw dropped.

"A-and he told me... holy fuck he's so oblivious," I groaned.

Jefferson moved closer and looked at me, making me get lost in those beautiful eyes of his.

"He told you?"

I continued, as if hypnotized by his gaze.

"He's... in love... with Eliza." I muttered.

He stopped abruptly, his eyes widening and snapping me out of that trance.

"Eliza?"

"Yeah."

I took a deep breath and leaned back on the chair, desperately trying to refrain the tears that were already pricking my eyes from falling.

I closed my eyes but felt a rustle beside me and a hand grazing against my skin ever so slightly, making me jolt back nontheless.

"Sorry," Jefferson apologised, his hand retreating instantly.

"I-I... may I ask you for love advice?" The Virginian asked, making my eyes flutter open and widen instantly.

"You like someone?" I asked curiously.

I never thought someone like him would have a crush.

"Yeah," He rubbed his neck awkwardly.

"This is new," I smirked.

"Oh shut up," He growled.

I snorted. Then said in a commanding tone:

"Don't try to charm her."

"What?"

"You heard me. If you try to use your charms on her, she'll fall at first but then think you're only flirting with her for no reason and she'll reject you." I stated calmly.

"Oh,"

"Be sincere, don't try to make a move too quickly and just try to keep relaxed. Oh! And buy her food."

I heard him let out a soft giggle which made my heart melt.

What? No!

Oh fuck.

Fuck it.

I am in love with Thomas Jefferson.

I tried so hard to look at his impossibly beautiful brown eyes of his but just couldn't bring myself to do so; why did I always have to fall for the people who wouldn't like me back? He just asked me for advice with his crush for god's sake!

I looked out of the window and cursed my eyes as tears pooled on them once again.

"Detention's over you both." The stern voice of the principal boomed in.

"Good," I mumbled and left without another word, brushing past against both him and Thomas, and failing to notice a look of distress in the young Virginian's face.

~Le time skip~

"Yo Michael! How are you and Jeremy doing?" I asked cheerfully as I climbed into Michael's old PT cruiser.

"Great! We're besties again but I swear to god... He's so oblivious," He sighed.

"Yeah, I know how that feels."

"Welp, come with me to sev' elev'?  Your sisters and... how did they call it? The Hamilsquad?"

"Yeah,"

"They'll be there too,"

"Sure then! Let's go!"

He started blasting his audio system as a familiar tune reached my ears.

"If you start me up
If you start me up I'll never stop
You can start me up
You can start me up I'll never stop

I've been running hot
You got me ticking going to blow my top
If you start me up
If you start me up I'll never stop
Never stop, never stop, never stop"

Michael started belting out the lyrics making me laugh quietly. It's nice to have a friend to make you laugh after all the pain those jerks put you through.

~Another time skip (I'm sorryyyyyy)~

I was currently laying on my bed and looking at the ceiling when I heard a soft ding coming from my phone.

I grabbed it and checked the time: 12:46am.

Who the actual fuck would text me at 12:46am?!

I unlocked my phone and opened the message from an unknown number.

Unknown: Hello

Unknown: This is Thomas Jefferson.

Unknown: I got your number from Laf

Unknown: Angelica

Unknown: Schuyler

Unknown: ANSWER MEEEE

Unknown: ANGELICAAA

Me: What the fuck do you want acorn?

Wait, I actually typed that?

Annoying asshole❤: Acorn? What the hell?

Me: Sorry... Just a... fuck it. What do you want?

Annoying asshole❤: To talk to you chérie.

I choked on the air around me and took a deep breath. As far as I remembered from that annoying ass dream, chérie meant... darling.

Darling.

That word lingered in my mind, taunting me up to no end.

Me: Will you stop talking to me in french?

Annoying asshole❤: Nope, never

Ha.

Me: I'll ask Lafayette to translate for me if you don't

Annoying asshole❤: *gasp* You wouldn't

Me: Oh but I would

I bit my lip trying to contain my smile but failing miserably.

Me: I hate you

Annoying asshole❤: Why? I mean, that's nothing new but...

Me: Because I'm trying as hard as I can not to laugh at 1am and I'm failing miserably.

Oh shit. I actually sent that? I felt my cheeks burning up.

Annoying asshole❤: Wait really? Nice to know~

Thomas' P.O.V.

Me: Wait really? Nice to know~

I felt a burst of happiness surge in my chest as I read those words all over again.

I'm glad I could do something for that broken soul in a beautiful woman's body. She was just everything for me...

Never Satisfied💜: Oh shut up will you?

Me: Mhm, you know you like to talk to me chérie,

Never Satisfied💜: You were the one who talked to me first DARLING

Never Satisfied💜: Fucker

I gasped and choked slightly. She... she knew? How? What?

I felt my go beet red and buried my head in my pillow.

Never Satisfied💜: TJefferson?

Wait... she was going to call me by my first name! She was going to write Thomas!

Never Satisfied💜: Does it actually mean darling?

I hesitated.

Me: Yeah...

Never Satisfied💜: Oh god...

Great, now she hates me.

Never Satisfied💜: I have magical dreams...

What the hell? I was most certainly NOT expecting that.

Me: Magical dreams? WTF?

Never Satisfied💜: Oh shit, gtg

Never Satisfied💜: Peggy's hearing me giggle and she's out my door

Never Satisfied💜: Bye ily

I felt my heart stop.

She... she actualy typed...

No, it must be a mistake.

She can't love me back... can she?

Angelica's P.O.V.

I took a deep breath and put the phone down after sending that. I actually did.

Fuck me.

After that internal debating I curled up beneath my covers and fell asleep.

Heyyyyy! Welp, that was a shitty ending but meh

The song was 'Start me up' By the rolling stones. Amazing band. Just in case you wanted to know.
