I am so, so sorry I haven't updated this in a while! I was busy the past two weeks and before that, I got started on this chapter, but had a hard time finishing it. But after reading OwlLegendary000's suggestion, I was inspired to finish this chapter. With the help of Pinterest. By the way, Happy Late Birthday to your sister.
I don't own Hamilton.
Chapter Four
"Ahh, Mr. Burr," Thomas greeted the man, "The former queen has been outcast to a wood. I doubt we'll be seeing her again. Any news?"
Aaron looked around, nervously. The Great Room had been torn of all evidence that Eliza existed. Or that any of the Schuyler's ever lived. All the banners representing the family had been torn down and knowing Thomas, burnt. Now there were magenta flags with white Dahlias. Over the head of the king's throne was a sign that said, "All Hail King Jefferson!" in huge letters. Thomas was so modest. The thought of his king being so modest made Aaron smile.
"I'm sorry to have to tell you, but I know exactly where the former queen is, your highness. A friend of mine took her in. Him and a few others are traitors to the crown," Aaron informed the other man.
"What?!" Thomas screamed, "Get them to me! I want to see their blood covering the streets! They shall be hanged for their unloyalties!"
Aaron nodded. "I'll try to have them to you by tonight, sir."
"You better."
"I can come with you. I don't always just want to be stuck here. There's something in me that needs to know what's going with Jefferson," said Eliza, "Please, Alexander?
"As much as it would be nice for you to come with Laf, Hercules, Burr, and John, you're still healing, Eliza," Alexander replied, reaching out to her head, "You've got something in your hair, let me get it for you."
Eliza looked down at her hands and grinned. Once Alexander was finished, the rest of the RevSet came into the room. Lafayette whistled. Hercules started to cheer them on with John. Aaron only looked annoyed.
"Tell us, petit lion when are you getting married?" asked Lafayette, clapping his hands.
"Shut up," Alexander warned under his breath.
"The couple of the century!" Hercules exclaimed.
John whistled. "The princess and the common man!"
Eliza was too embarrassed to say anything. By this point, she guessed that her face was redder than a rose. The men weren't making it better.
"She's not a princess she's a queen," Alexander mumbled, "There's a difference you know."
When Eliza looked up at him, Alexander was blushing more than herself. She grabbed his hand from where she was sitting.
"Aww!" said Lafayette, Hercules, and John.
"Shut up!"
Aaron went up to the rest. "We'd better get going now."
"Goodbye, lovebirds!" Lafayette called as he went out with his friends.
Once his friends were gone, Alexander let out a deep breath. "So sorry about that, 'Liza."
"I-I-It's fine."
They sat in silence. Alexander wanted nothing more than to hold Eliza's hand. But it seemed improper. Eliza was a queen. He was nothing. Dirt poor. Eliza, on the other hand, inched her hand over to Alexander's. She never thought that she would fall in love this way.
"Oh, it's raining," Alexander noted, when he looked out the window.
Eliza was a bit disappointed that he hadn't noticed her hand. But she would make the best out of this situation. She stood from her chair, grabbing Alexander's hand on the way up.
"Let's go out there!" exclaimed Eliza, "I used to love playing out in the rain when I was a kid with my sisters."
"Wait-don't we need coats before we go outside? And are you sure that you're feeling all right?"
She just giggled. "Come on, Alexander! I feel just fine! My injures have healed!"
The two of them ran out the door into the storm. Eliza laughed up at the sky. She took Alexander's hand and started twirling around with him. Both of them started giggling at nothing at all.
"I think I'm in love with you, Eliza," Alexander whispered into her ear, "I know I shouldn't be, but…"
"I love you, too, 'Xander."
Their lips met. Alexander started running his hands through Eliza's hair, while she was pulling him closer to her. Goosebumps appeared on her arms. The feeling seemed to make Eliza's heart beat faster. When the two broke away, Alexander took the queen's hand in his own.
"Wow," Eliza breathed.
"You wanna take this inside?" her lover whispered into her ear.
After Eliza nodded, Alexander picked her up bridal style and took her inside. Inside, Eliza took her shoes off. Alexander followed suit. Now only in their socks, the couple started sliding across the floor. They crashed into each other over and over again, but neither of them noticed. Once the two crashed into each other again, their lips crashed into each other's. Eliza blushed.
"Sorry-I did-" she tried to say.
But before Eliza could say anything else, Alexander kissed her back. He slid off leaving behind an Eliza who's face was more of a magenta now.
When the rest of the revolutionists came back, they found the couple sliding around in their socks. For a moment, they watched. When Eliza and Alexander went in for another kiss, Hercules came out.
"So this is what you two do when we're out?" he asked, surprising them.
His comment made Alexander slip, giving Eliza another chance to help him up. The RevSet cheered them on.
"So what did you find out?" questioned Alexander.
"Not much, mon ami. We're hoping that what we did find out will be enough, though," said Lafayette, "But for the time being, I'm going to bed." He stomped off.
"Me too. But I want to hear all about it in the morning." With that Hercules followed him.
John winked before entering his room. Aaron was still annoyed at the whole ordeal. Alexander and Eliza gave each other a goodnight kiss on the cheek before heading off to bed.
It had been a long, yet lovely night.
So there you go. I hope that it won't take as long to get out another chapter. I will be gone Friday and most of next week.
Thanks for reading! Please drop a review!
