Hello! I'm Luvdragons, and I'd like to say for the record that I thank everyone who had been helpfully critiquing me. I can proudly state that I believe that I have improved.

With love,

Luvdragons

"Road trip!" called Peggy, shoving her bags into the back of the car. John Laurens followed her, carrying nearly everyone else's. Angelica was squinting up at the sun, trying to decide how long they had until it came down.

"Jefferson, YOU DO NOT NEED ALL THIS CRAP! I HAVE CARRIED ALL MY POSSESSIONS IN ONE BAG FOR MY ENTIRE LIFE!" Alexander Hamilton had gotten in another fight with Thomas Jefferson. The young man was taking up the entire backseat with his stuff, and he was not in the mood to sit on Lafayette (kind about it) or Hercules's (has the most stamina) laps for the third year in a row.

"What is it to you? Gives you an excuse to sit with your boyfriend." Thomas replied, scanning his nails for dirt.

"Please don't include me in this fight." called John from the trunk of one of the blue vans that Alexander and the Schuyler sisters had chipped in on (mostly the sisters, but Alex took credit).

"There's plenty of room. The only thing you should be worried about is being in the car that Angelica's driving." Aaron Burr quipped, grinning.

"Burr, you disgust me."

"We're leaving now!" James Madison called, handing Angelica the keys and leading her gently away from Aaron. Thomas did the same with him. They couldn't afford a repeat of The Aaron Incident of 2014 (involving a broken arm and a freestyle rapping Angelica). They all filed in, tallest first until the cars were full.

"Okay, shortest has to share a seat with someone!" Aaron hollered. They had three people left, but in both cars shotgun was open. That meant an argument.

"I don't really want to sit with Alexander," Angelica admitted.

"Neither do I.," said Aaron.

"Peggy, sit with Aaron. Eliza, sit with Angelica. Hamilton, choose a person." John stared passionately at Alexander, who sidled over Thomas to him. The taller man scooched over and allowed him to sit uncomfortably close. Angelica turned her key, starting the car. They were off.

"I am so excited! I love seeing different attractions in America!" Lafayette exclaimed, excitedly staring out the window.

"That reminds me, Marie, I got you a map!" Eliza passed back a map of the united states, colored to look like the American flag.

"How come she gets to call you by your first name and I can't?" Alexander whined, pouting at Lafayette.

"Because, Mon petit lion," he replied, patting the brunette's head, "Eliza is the most wonderful human being to walk the earth."

"We're equals! Right, John?" he turned his pleading eyes to the freckled man who was leaning against the window.

"No." The group replied, of one mind. Alexander crossed his arms and huffed. There was silence for about an hour, in which Alex and John fell asleep and Hercules drew in a black pen all over their arms.

Eliza's phone rang.

"Thomas?" There was an incoherent whine from the other line.

"Angelica, pull over. The small child in the other car has to use the restroom."

"Got it." Angelica chuckled at Eliza's comparison to Jefferson.

"Will it wake them up?" asked Lafayette, always the sweetheart.

"Nothing could wake them up," Angelica replied, waving her hand dismissively as she parked. There was a groan from the backseat.

"Quick! Take a picture!" Hercules snapped one with his phone so that it would be morally okay to let the two wake up. There was a holler from the other van, and they saw Jefferson sprinting for the lavatories.

"The rest of you are going to the bathroom as well," Angelica ordered Eliza and the boys. They filed out of the car. Eliza went to wake up John and Alex.

"You two are so cute, but you should really use the restroom." she whispered sweetly, causing Alex to open one eye.

"Good morning, Alexander." he nodded, taking the hand she offered him and waking up John in the process, who also stood. After everyone had relieved themselves, the piled back in the vans.

"You're taking Thomas tomorrow," Aaron muttered to Angelica.

"Deal. But you can trade him for Hercules. He's quietly annoying."
