Alex POV

It was wrong I admit it. But I was on my way home when I heard Johns voice. It was soon accompanied by Eliza's voice and then it all of a sudden stopped.

I was a little scared like we're they okay? But when I walked over I saw something I didn't want to see. At all. Ever.

Eliza was swapping spit with MY John. I mean not MINE but like- shut up...

Anyway I ran all the way back home and plastered a fake maybe out of breath smile on my face. Slamming the door open, I saw my pregnant wife and my mother chatting on the couch. They not clinched when I slammed the door behind me, still fake smiling.

The women ran to me and asked me if I was okay. Angelica put both her hands on the side of my face and examined it while my mother rubbed my upper back. I forced a confused look on my face. "Uhhh hello to you guys too"

I kissed my wife and she went off to her knitting and I waved my mother off and started to walk to my office. I felt an arm grab mine and hook it.

"Keep your head facing forward son-" I heard my mother's voice low and threatening.

I made it to my office and as soon as the door closed my mother grabbed me by my ear and said angrily, "I don't care why the hell your upset or how it got that way but your wife has been alone for days. She is scared and with child. Go to her or I swear I will skin you alive."

Most people's voices get louder the angrier they get but not my mother. Hers got lower. She let go of me and I rubbed the side of my head. She sweetly smiled and added, "there are lemon cookies on the kitchen table" With that, she left the room

Angelica POV

Today, I was reading my book about pregnancy's and all. The chapter I read was about the risks and I regret reading it very much. It entailed miscarries and stillborns. Doctors are working on new things called C sections where they actually slice the Uterus open and take the baby out. How horrible!! I've also heard of women dying when giving birth...

I didn't even realize when I started sobbing. I guess I was loud enough for Rachel to hear me because she made her way over, gracefully. She still had her apron on. She gasped, "oh dear sweet child! What's the matter?"

"Oh no-no-nothing I'm just *sniff* reading this book and-" Rachel took one look at the book and yeeted it across the room.

I wiped away my tears in confusion. "Collywobbles that's what that book it!! Simply horrendous that someone would print such a monstrosity on a page." I smiled at her kindness. She truest was the best of mother's best or woman.

Suddenly the door slammed open and we jerked our heads to see Alex out of breath with a visibly weak smile on his face. I got up and held his head in my hands.

He gave me a kiss and said something like leave me alone. I watched as my husband trudged up the stairs. It's hard to believe that a kind, smart, witty, gorgeous, bastard would be the the same man that stood before me. I miss that intelligent sparkle that once rested in his chocolate eyes. I miss that devilish smirk that once lit up his face. I miss the way his fair fell over his face when he was crazy. I miss my alex.

I was sitting on the couch thinking of such things when I heard a small click from outside. Mails here!!

I sorted through the letters. Bills went to father so I delivered this first. Next I saw three from Apron to my peggy. I placed those on her bed. Eliza and Rachel got no mail. John and Alex each got an identical looking letter from Lafayette and one from Hercules. I got one letter from- no this can't be right!

I got a letter from Thomas Jefferson?!

Lafayette POV

I sent out my letters a week ago. One to John and one to Alex. Herc sent his too. Wow we're so alike!! Ohmigosh what am I even saying. I've been drinking too much...

All training and stuff was cancelled today because of some American holiday-
Never the less I was called to the generals tent.

When herc told me he had become a general, I was very happy for him. Now that the information has set in I guess I'm a little jealous-

Whatever, as long as he is happy I'll be happy.

I made my way to the Generals tent and saluted. "At ease Lafayette " commanded washingmachine

"How can I help you sir" I asked.

"Well as you know, John has been sent home but his position still needs to be filled. Can you lead an army to South Carolina... would you be willing"

I nodded a little too eagerly. An army of my own, fighting, leading, traveling. I was so excited!

Plus what could go wrong?

Alex POV

I couldn't take it anymore!! I was going back to war and I was going back tonight! I know it's wrong and I know I'll be leaving my wife and my best friend and my mother but it was worth it.

2 hours later I had made it out the window and safely into the train. Everything had worked. Before I left I slipped a letter into the mailbox. It read,

Dearest family,

I'm sorry but I have to leave. I must fight and defend my country. Phillip, take care of the family for me will you? Peggy, don't miss me too much and don't go near this god damn worms or I swear. Eliza, don't get married without me there okay? Mother, take care of yourself and the family. My dearest, Angelica... my love take your time! Don't have this baby without me and I promise I'll come home safe when I'm done. And John, you did it!! You got shot. You died. You came back. You got the girl. You go my man!! And now to the family as a whole, I'm sorry but I really did have to do this. I'll see you when I come back SAFE!! I love you all so very much.

With tremendous love,

Alexander Hamilton

I think that would do it!! Suddenly the train started moving and I took my seat.

I looked across the car and my eyes layed apon avery farmiliar face. No-

"PEGGY NO!!!"
