Hi guys! This is my first Hamilton fanfic and I hope you guys enjoy it! All characters are based off of Lin-Manuel Miranda's Hamilton.
Prologue
One didn't think of Aaron Burr without first thinking of Alexander Hamilton, or vice versa. Since the Revolution, the two were inseparable, even if not always in friendship. People expected their children to behave the same toward each other. Since Philip Hamilton and Theodosia Burr were born only a year and a half apart, everyone expected them to grow up friends. So it was a shock to almost everybody when the pair's children didn't become similarly thick as thieves. In fact, the eldest children of the two men couldn't have grown up to be any more different.
Her father's daughter, Theodosia grew up to be a proud intellectual, excelling in both mathematics and languages. Before her mother's death, Theodosia learned to play piano quite skillfully, often providing entertainment for her father's guests. She often kept to herself and never made a spectacle; she saw enough popularity while trailing her father's life as a politician. Philip Hamilton, on the other hand, grew up to be a near perfect replica of his father both physically and mentally. He attended King's College like his father did, finishing at the top of his class. However, Philip was not known for his academic prowess; the entire city knew about Philip from his fanciful exploits. Almost everybody could recall the time he was found naked in a closet with Emily Munroe or the time when he showed up to his younger sister Angelica's birthday ball roaring drunk.
Growing up, it was clear that the children of both prominent politicians, Theodosia Burr and Philip Hamilton were nothing like each other.
