"Alexander!" Eliza screams. She sees her husband dive off the cliff and heads straight into the water and rocks. Eliza sees everyone that they both know. She knows that they are confuse and is trying to figure it out. Eliza runs to where her husband was standing to see if she can see him in the ocean. She feels arms holding her back and she fights to get free and turns and slaps whoever it is holding her back. She has to see if her husband is alright.
"I do deserve that slap to the face." A familiar voice brings Eliza out off panic. She snaps back to reality and sees her husband holding onto her. She looks over his should and sees Madison not wet and in the care of Jefferson and Dolley. Eliza turns in his arms and pulls him close. The woman can see the others looking confusion and shock at her husband.
"I don't care if you work tomorrow, I am going to fuck you hard, fast and deep, you will not be able to set right proper." Eliza whispers to Alexander. He shivers at the tone of voice that his wife uses, and know that he will be a begging mess, once they get home.
He kisses her forehead and she responds with a big grin on her face. She knows that Alex is hoping for another child to have. He wants another child. She wants to rub is pregnant belly and to fuck him, his hormones get out of control. She wants Philip to have siblings, but she does not want to lose Alex over another child.
"Alexander!" Eliza hiss at the harshness of Jefferson's voice and how he makes her husband flinch. Alexander steps back at the harshness. She steps in front of her husband and glares the the man. Everyone sees the glare, step back and all stay silent.
"Thank you for saving me Hamilton."Hearing Madison's voice across the way. Alexander and Eliza sees the Madison's behind Jefferson with James leaning on Dolley. She looks at Alexander with wonder. She looks like she is trying to figure him out and Eliza can see that to Dolley, Alexander is just another mystery. Eliza uses her body to hide her small husband. She will protect him from Dolley, if she wants to harm him. She knows that Dolley is Alexander's cousin from his father's side.
"What is going on Eliza?" Angelica question her sister. Angelica steps in front of her sister. Eliza sees her parents coming over, but she still hides her husband from view. She looks at her husband and the two are talking. Catherine and Philip sees their daughter and son-in-law share a look. The group sees Hamilton turning and reaching with his free hand to grab something. To their shock water come straight to him. Angelica's and Peggy's eyes are on Alexander and turn to their sister, to see her reaction. To their surprise, she is beaming. John and Stephen look at their brother-in-law with awe. John, pales a little. He now know why Alexander looks so familiar.
"Do you believe in the gods, like the Greek gods?" Hamilton ask. Everyone is looking at him as if he lost his mind.
"I do." Madison says. The son of Hades and the daughter of Antheia look at James in curious. He is the first to answer and they know that the Greek gods and goddesses are real. They are apart of their world.
"Why?" Jefferson questions Madison. Whenever Hamilton snaps, James would say Hamilton's tired from not sleeping the night before. Jefferson is always wondering what made Madison be somewhat protective of Hamilton. Thomas would say that Madison is protecting Alexander or Thomas from something. Thomas things that it might me both.
"I saw Hamilton using his water powers before. He was fighting a man with a sword, and helming his wife's wounds. She was bleeding so bad and when he used the water, the bleeding stopped." Madison says. As soon as he says that both husband and wife tense. Alexander looks down, starting to cry, while Eliza looks ready to murder someone. Everyone wonder what brought this reaction towards the couple. Philip and Catherine look at their daughter with shock. She never told them that she almost died. They look at their son-in-law, who has tears down his face.
"You saw that?" Eliza hissed. Madison, who was getting closer, took a step back and making Jefferson and Dolley step in front of him. The pair sees Hamilton grabbing Eliza's arm and pull her near him. Jefferson and Dolley feels Madison's hand grasping their own arm. Thomas and Dolley will protect James from whatever threat occurs to him. On the other side of the group, Lafayette can see his petit ami féroce* becoming pale and moves to be by his side. Hamilton's knees starts to bend and his eyes closing.
Lafayette circle his arms around the shorter male and takes Hamilton's weight on him. He puts his other arm under his knees and lifts him up. He is shock to feel the true weight of his ami*. Everybody can see the tiredness Alexander and agrees to go to the Hamiltons house. Everyone walks to Hamilton's place and Lafayette puts Alexander to bed. Once he got downstairs and sits with his Adrienne, Eliza starts to tell them the whole truth.
Once she tells the group the truth, the group just sits there to digest the information. Angelica and Peggy goes and hugs their sister. Eliza gets tense and then relaxes within her sisters's hug. Eliza doesn't feel safe in her sister's arms, like she used too. She feels safe in Alexander's arms. Eliza remember the comfort that her sister's hugs bring. Eliza loves Alexander, but there are times that they both need a change of scenery.
She misses her family and the only family Alexander have is Philip and her. Alexander has her family, and his real father, but none of them know and accept him. That thought makes Eliza frown, because, right know, Alexander only has her. Philip flipped out, once the two told him the truth. Philip got disgusted by both of his parents. The look on Philip's face and his words destroyed Alexander, making Eliza's heart brake. She wanted Philip to apologize to his father, or mother, she was not sure.
"How are you when Alexander's family come over?" George Washington asks the woman, that has taken one of his best solder's heart. Everyone can see that their love for each other, like no other. They will never let anything get in their way. That thought make George frown. What happen to them, when the Reynold's affaires came to light?
"I hate it when his family comes over. He gets anxiety and he can panic just because his family is coming over. I hate it because all he wants is to be a great family man but his family just messes him up." Eliza whispers. She curls into her sisters and seeking comfort in a strange, but knowing love. She does love her sisters much and having them this close, makes her realize that she misses them. She knows that having Lafayette close to Alexander, he has a supporter. Lafayette has Alexander's trust, that Hercules and John don't have.
"What happens on days his family fucks him over?" Jefferson asks. He can take a guess on what can happen, but he wants to make sure. He saw earlier on how young Hamilton looked like, but he is afraid of how old he is. Thomas and Martha knows that Martha is going to die soon. She knew that all the pregnancies weakened her. She wanted Thomas to be happy and if that means marring someone else, he would do it. She knows that Thomas has feelings towards Hamilton, yet he did not want to react to them. Thomas wants to know how Hamilton feels about him, before saying his feelings.
"He is submissive and quite and does not talk. He just takes the abuse and deals with it." Eliza answers. She says it with bitter and her eyes narrowing. She hates seeing Alexander with his head down and just allowing everyone to walk all over him. She wants him to speak his mind, to challenge everyone again. She wants him to stand up for himself. She feels arms tightening around her and she smiles a soft smile.
James, Thomas, George and Gilbert, now knowing the behavior, all nods. It all makes sense. They wanted to question Alexander, for the sudden change of behavior, but never did. They have seen him take the abuse of everyone and never to stand up for himself. The four made sure that Hamilton would no long took the abuse. Washington and Lafayette would take Alexander out for a walk, or for much. In the meantime Madison and Jefferson would verbal abuse the person hurting Alexander. The four made a pack to protect Hamilton from the people that are trying to hurt him at work. They all wondered why he act that way, so hearing the why, explains a lot.
"What about the Reynolds's affair?" Peggy asks her sister. She knows that Eliza was livid at that and Alexander was reduce to nothing. She saw Eliza comforting Alexander and the other way around. She saw the way people acted towards Alexander after the affair got out. They were talking trash about him and she and Angelica didn't speak to him at all. The two got worried about Eliza. Eliza was all right, because, Alexander wrote to her what happened the first day it happened. She can see that the Reynolds's still hunts her husband. She feels herself tensing up, hands curling in and out of ball. That affair was what pushed her to hate his family with a passion. Poseidon knew about what happen, and he still didn't try to help his son.
She had told Alexander to tell the people at work what happened, but he would cry and she would stop pushing. She never saw her husband cry, but have James and Maira Reynolds been real humans, she would have shot them. She got tired of seeing her husband's heart breaking every time, he was with his father's side of the family. Knowing what happened with her husband, she told no one. The group fell silent. It was clear that Eliza would not tell the group what happen. Whatever happened it was not a good. It's a no subject to everyone. They can sense that Eliza would kill someone and they don't want to bury a body.
"Who carried Philip?" Aaron asks the question that what was on his mind, because he was thinking of what Madison said. If what Madison said was true, that Eliza couldn't get pregnant, how did the two get Philip? Then Hamilton missed work for months, without an explanation, then went back to work. As soon as Hamilton got back to work Eliza and Hamilton had Philip. It was confusing, because the two didn't say anything, or gave in explanation. Eliza takes a deep breath and explains.
"Madison said Alexander was saving me, was the day I lost my ability to get pregnant. One of Alexander's cousins sneaked attacked him, and Alexander did not see it coming. I saw the attack and pushed him out of the way. I got stabbed in the stomach. The attack hit the Fetus. After that Alexander and his solider of a cousin started to fight. Once Alexander won, and the cousin got away, Alexander healed me. Another cousin told Alexander that I could never have kids again. The sea frats life and because Alexander is the son of the sea god, Alexander had the ability to get pregnant. Alexander and I switched the roles and I got him pregnant and Alexander gave birth to Philip. It was a hard pregnancy for him and being at work and the stress about work and carrying a child was hard. It was to much stress for him to have and that made it hard to giving birth." She says.
Eliza feels her sisters arms around her. Philip and Catherine look at each other and frowned. Eliza's family is hearing so much of her life, that they didn't know about. It hurts that she didn't tell them the truth. It hurt that Alexander didn't tell them anything.
"I almost lost Alexander. The birthing was hard. I had to help him with the birth. Philip was a strong baby and it weakened Alexander. It was horrible to watch my husband fighting to stay alive after the pregnancy, because he lost a lot of blood. There is a time where you can watch for so long and be so helpless you just don't want to see that anymore. Alexander wants another child but I refuse to give him another. I'm afraid I'll lose him this time though. He has begged me for another and this time, he would tell you, Washington, the truth." She continues. She has her hands hiding her face. Her parents moved their other daughters away and hugged their middle child. Philip, Cathrine, Angelica and Peggy are mad at Alexander for involving Eliza. The four are mad at Eliza for allowing the abuse to happen and not telling anyone. The rest of the group has this clashing of thoughts going through them.
"You didn't lose me, though. I pulled through form the pregnancy. You made sure that I was still alive after the pregnancy." Hamilton's voice comes through the room. Angelica and Peggy rushed to Hamilton and hugs him at the stairway. Both women can feel the tension in his body, before it goes away. They feel his arms around them and they clutch the shorter man with all their might. Angelica and Peggy love Alexander and has treated him like a true brother. They hated themselves for how they treated him after hearing the abuse he got. They didn't want to hear what happened during the Reynold's Affair.
They jump to the conclusion of not being pleasing Eliza. Angelica feels so guilty for not believing Alexander for never loving Eliza. Adrienne, Lafayette's wife saw that Alexander was uncomfortable and went to get him. She can see why her husband loves Alexander. He is just a little kid that just wants to be love. She and Gilbert curl up to him and he snuggles into Gilbert. She knows that Gilbert is protective of Alexander and he will do anything for him.
"If you want to get pregnant again, let me know so you will not be at work. I want you to still work with me. I don't want to look for another man under my wing." Washington says to the man, that is his son. He sees a suffering boy inside a young man. Washington wanted Alexander to have someone to trust. He wanted to be that person that Alexander to trust. Washington without knowing it, is father figure to Alexander. Alexander knows that Washington is only there to protect him from the cruel world. After hearing about the abuse Alexander is receiving from his family. Everyone is now seeing a different side of Alexander, after getting the truth out of Eliza.
"So, the roles are revers in ?" All the women ask at once. Eliza laughs and the guys sigh. The men can see Hamilton blushing and hiding his face in Lafayette's chest. They smile a little, because they can tell that he is embarrass by the fact that the roles are revers. As soon as the blush Jefferson sees how young Hamilton is. His heart aches, because he was hurting the man more then he needed. He thought that Alexander was older and Thomas responded in retaliation. The man looks early twenties.
Madison studies Hamilton. He can see a tired young man, who works so hard and has gained so little. The only thing constant in his life is his loving wife. Madison fears the Schuyler sisters. He fears Eliza more, because of how protective she is of her husband. Angelica loves Alexander and feels protective of him. She will not beating a man's or woman's to unconscious, if someone hurts Alexander. Eliza can fight men twice her size and still win. Madison fears for his life, when he is near the woman.
John and Hercules are frowning, because Alexander is their friend and little brother. To see him hurt makes the two want to hurt something or someone. They thought that Alexander trusted them to tell them the truth, but to know that he lied to them, hurt. They can see why he never told anyone. Lafayette holds his petit frère* tighter. He can't lose Alexander to anything or anyone. When he heard that he almost died of childbirth, he got scared. He will make sure that Alexander knows that he has an older brother, that cares. Alexander had told Lafayette about James and Peter, Alex's older brothers.
The two men caused Alexander great difficulty growing up. Sure Peter and James never lived together, but they have met up on occasion to torment Alexander. James and James Jr., both live Alexander and that did not stop the abuse. They would put Alexander down and Rachel, his mother would do her best to protect Alexander. When James found out that Alexander was not his son, he got pissed. He found out that his wife cheated on him. The step-father took his anger out on Alexander and not Rachel.
What made everyone pissed, was Poseidon knew about the abuse but never did anything to help Alex. Poseidon was afraid of getting in his son's life. Seeing how lonely Eliza is, Alexander got up from Lafayette and went to his wife and cuddles with her. Martha sees how great Eliza's and Alex's relationship is and she is happy with it. When Alexander comes over for dinner, he is always talking about Eliza. He tells them how she changes his world constant. Mama Washington would always look at George and see a smile on his face. They are happy to listen to their son talk about his plans and his Eliza. They both can see the love that Alexander and Eliza have. Martha is happy, because, Alexander is like no other man, she has known. She was frowning at what had happen with the Reynold's affair.
To know what is happening with their sister, Peggy and Angelica are shock. They want to know why they were never told. Then they realized, that they never asked about Eliza. They were always complaining about themselves. Eliza and her husband suffer from their brother-in-law's family. They are upset with themselves and at the couple, for not telling them anything. They wanted Alexander and Eliza to come to them and tell them what is wrong and they want to help. Angelica and Peggy thought that they jumped to conclusions about Alexander. They were mean to Alexander and he suffered great. They are seeing what Eliza sees everyday. They see a sweet husband and a hurt man. Seeing their family cuddling on the couch, makes them realize that they love each other. There is nothing will ever change that.
