~Alexander POV~

Life's been pretty good. I guess. We'be been on the move now. Me, James, Lucy, and Adrienne.

Adrienne de Noailles. We went to high school together. We helped her with her abusive boyfriend James Reynolds. Afterwards, she decided that she wanted to help people like her, so she joined us. She's been doing pretty good so far.

Because of our job, we keep moving from place to place, mission to mission. We've been in San Fransisco, Seattle, Chicago, Toronto, Tokyo, London, even Paris.

I love it yet hate it at the same time.

When ever we go one missions, i get the same adrenaline rush and thrill. Its exhilarating. It feels great to be able to use my enhanced hearing and eye sight again. Makes me feel useful.

Its also great spending time with my brother and the girls. We've become pretty close group.

Bur ever since I left Tho- no- Jefferson and the others, I've experienced episodes of color madness. I try to use the name Jefferson when referring to him because when I do, it feels like im not talking about my soulmate.

I take pills for my color madness. Being part of a secret spy agency has its quirks. Dont ask me how it works I dont know. I'm not a scientist.

The pills work most of the time. Key word being most.

Some days I'll crave the colors or imagine a person is Thomas. On those days I cant work, focus, eat, sleep, or function in general. I sort of just go...

insane.

I miss him I really do. I miss all of them.

I'd be lying if i said that I didnt use my spy privileges to "stalk" my old friends. If i could even call them that anymore.

Laf and Herc got married the summer I left.

John and Jefferson kissed the night I left. Turns out John, James (Madison), and Thomas were...

soulmates

All three of them. They were in a poly relationship now. Happy and proud.

I dont know how that happened. I wasnt sure whether that meant me and Jefferson were soulmates anymore. Whether that meant he didnt love me anymore.

I know I did. I know I still love him.

But i do know that I cant ever go back to him. No matter how much I want to.

My heart yearned for all of them. Everyday.

I've had to watch my friends from a far. I've had to watch them live their lives without me. It hurts, a lot. But I have a new life now, without them.

"Alex? Alex! ALEXANDER HAMILTON!"

A voice snapped Alex out of his thoughts. Currently, he was laying in bed.

"Hm?"

"Get up! Dad's gonna fill us in on out next mission!" His brother said excitedly and proceeded to shake Alex until he woke up.

I groaned before throwing off the blanket and rubbing the sleep out of my eyes.

He looked around the hotel room. Right now the four of them were in Las Vegas. They had just finished a mission. Most of their mission included drug dealing.

The two girls were seated on the other bed, in front of James' laptop, talking to each other.

I got up and threw myself onto the other bed, earning a few swears from Lucy. I chuckled before looking up at James.

"Alright, lets call him."

When Dad picks up, instead of greeting us with his usual smile, he looked tired. The bags under his eyes were dark and his hair was a mess.

"You ok? You look terrible," Adrienne asks, concern in her voice.

"I'm fine." We all shrug and turn back to the screen. "Anyways, we have a new mission. We have news that there will be a suicide bomber in New York." He pauses.

New York? Oh god. I start to worry about John, Laf, Peggy, the others. I see James steal a glance at me but I ignore it. Everyone stays silent.

"So far, we know that the bombing will be in Alex's college." I feel the blood drain out of my face as he keeps going. "We also know that it'll be a student who will do it. The person joined the rival spy agency a few weeks ago."

I nod numbly. I can feel part of myself start to panic. Lucy puts a hand on my arm in an attempt to calm me down. It works a little.

"We have a recording of the students voice. Alex, I was hoping you would know who it was."

I nod again and pull myself closer to the laptop in order to hear better. A voice starts to play.

The blood in my veins turns into ice when I hear it.

"I volunteer to do the bombing! Yes, I'm sure. Dont worry I can do it."

The recording stops. Its short but I know who it is.
