Hey! Luvdragons again! (sorry) This one is not as good as the previous chapter, but I like how it starts out! I would love some feedback, so please review if you can! Thanks! 3
They were three hours in, and Alexander had taken to complaining about everything. John had tried everything to get him to shut up, and so had Angelica, but they were having no luck. If John kissed him, he would just continue talking as it was happening. Angelica gripped his lips and squeezed them together, but she had the same results.
"I wish I had a teleporter. But maybe that would hurt because of the whole disintegrating your body and making it whole again. That might hurt less than the pins and needles in my leg. Cars scare me. We should've walked. I've walked farther than this before, I guarantee you. I can't see Thomas making it through, though. Angelica, definitely and maybe even Eliza. I could carry John or Lafayette, who would both probably get tired. But I'm not touching Jefferson."
"Babe?"
"Yeah…?"
"Were you like this on Nevis? Because you will be the God damn death of me."
"Well, if someone would talk to me, that would help. And I would never kill you. Unless I had to kill you to make Eliza survive, but I think that goes without saying. Since she's 'the greatest human being to walk the earth' and all. And also I'm kind of angry with you right now. But, like, Eliza's always my backup, so…"
"Awww thanks, Alexander." Eliza cooed from the front seat.
"See? Perfect. Literally perfect." Alex quipped, grabbing John's hand and flipping it over. "But it's nice because you're taller than me."
"You wound me." He replied, watching Angelica and Eliza giggle over Whispers. "Angelica, eyes on the road. I'm too young to die."
"Because I love you." Alexander urged, dropping the other boy's hand and looking over at Lafayette. "What are you reading?"
"Nothing that would interest you, mon petit lion." He said, giving Alex a one armed hug.
"No no no. What are you reading?" he asked again.
"It's called 'The Notebook'. You probably wouldn't like it. You're more into science fiction, are you not?"
"I LOVE 'The Notebook'!"
"You two are suckers for cheesy romance, I see," Angelica said, pulling into a hotel. "Group up, guys, four to a room."
"John, Hercules-"
"Alex, don't call me that."
"-And Laf, let's room together!"
"God, slow down, Alexander. What state are we in, Angie?" John asked, looking nervous.
"South Carolina. I thought it'd be nice to pay your parents a...um...visit."
"But we don't exactly speak all that much…"
"John, I don't think that's what she means." Alex reminded, nodding to Angelica's huge grin.
"I'd rather not, Angel. But really, thanks for the thought."
"No...I don't want to do what Alexander was implying. I thought it would be nice to bring them a cake or something." Immediately Eliza and Alex enveloped her in a hug.
"That is just about the sweetest thing anyone's ever wanted to do for someone who doesn't deserve it," Alexander muttered.
"Fine. You idiots win."
