Chapter 2
Y/N's POV
I began to pack my things, as I pondered what was in Washington's letter. It was addressed to the king, so if I opened it, I would be dead meat. The general also sent a letter a few hours ago, which was to hopefully be read before we arrived. I'm not sure what Washington wrote, but it was about the mission. We needed an excuse for coming to England. There was no way we could show up and expect to be welcomed.
All we had to do was earn the King's trust, and thankfully, there was a ball being held the night we were to arrive. I just hope that nothing bad happens. I really care about the guys and if they get hurt I could never forgive myself.
I finished packing, as Herc entered our small tent.
"Y/N! I finally finished that dress I told you I was working on!" Herc said, holding up a beautiful F/C dress.
"Herc, you know I'd love to wear it, but..." I started, ashamed I had to turn down the gift.
"Oh, this isn't for you. I'm making you something else. This is for another person." He said, smiling. "I know you hate dresses Y/N, I'm going to work on our outfits on the ship. It'll take a while to get to England, and Washington expects us to get our information fast. He'll need Hamilton and Laf back as soon as possible."
"Why doesn't he just send you and John? Does he really need all four of you to come with me?"
"Look Y/N, we were all hesitant when he decided to have all of us go. Laf is one of Washington's best men, and Alex, he needs to keep writing letters to Congress. I didn't know what Washington will do, but he'll figure it out. He always does, right?"
"Yeah..." I replied, turning away. Washington hasn't fully thought this through. If one of us gets caught, something really bad can happen. If we loose Laf, Herc, Alex, and I guess John too, then there's no way we can win our freedom. If Lee comes with me, sure he'd be a real pain in the *ss, but nothing bad will come out of us losing him.
Our ship to England was leaving soon, so I greeted the boys with all of my things in hand.
"Y/N." They all said in unison, smiling at me.
"Hamilsquad." I replied, gunning happily.
"Why do you call us that?" John asked, 'accidentally' slipping is hand around my waist.
"Because, you're all a squad, and the Lafsquad, or the Mullisquad, or the Laurensquad, sounds weird, so I chose the Hamilsquad."
"Sure~" Laf said, in his flirtatious French accent.
Truth is, I'm pretty sure that they all like me. I don't know if it's true, but from what I've heard around the city and in camp, it seems that all four of them have a thing for me. That can't be true. We're all just friends, I think..... (:3)
We stood in the harbor, the sun slowly setting. A cool breeze of wind blew through our hair, as Washington saluted us goodbye.
"Good luck to you all, especially you Y/N. The king is a... how do I put this? He's quite hard to persuade and he is very stubborn. I know you can get those plans. And if you come back with a single scratch in your face, I'll personally slaughter every single man that tried hurt you, saving the one that actually did for last." He said, before I stepped into the ship.
"Thanks sir. We'll see you on the other side of the war." I said, saluting back.
Washington and a few other men waved us goodbye as the ship pulled out of the harbor. It was being sailed by none other than one of our own, and he was to stay in London until further notice. He did not know of our plans or what we intended to do in England, but he knew that if we had to get out, he's have to be able to bring us back. Though he was a Brit, he proved himself trustworthy. Though he was against our Congress at first, Samuel Seabury has seemed to changed, and thank goodness for that. It would be very suspicious to have an American hiding out in a ship for such a long time.
I stared at the vast sea, watching the shore, waiting for Washington to leave. He didn't. He wanted to make sure we were all right. Though he was almost out of view, I could tell he was concerned.
"We'll be fine, sir..." I whispered to myself, awaiting the journey ahead of me.
