Thomas Jefferson grabbed Theodosia, who struggled to go to Aaron. James Madison regretfully grabbed Aaron and muttered "Sorry" under his breath. Aaron pushed against James to get to his Theodosia. He sobbed and fought away. Thomas and James forcefully dragged them apart. When they all realized it was hopeless, the struggle ended.
Alexander and I have been in the corner this whole time.
George Washington said "Escort these two outside back to their house separately. We'll deal with the scandal in the morning."
Aaron was fuming. "You don't understand! John Laurens and Alexander Hamilton were supposed to be here! I told you! Please here me out!" Theodosia cried softly while being walked out.
George looked around, searching for something, someone. He found us in the corner, and walked over. "Aaron told me you'd be here. I won't go into detail as to what Aaron disclosed. Because of what has happened here today I will be forgiving." And with that he walked away.
Alexander and I got up to leave, and I found my journal at the table Aaron Burr was seated at. Hamilton was waiting for me at the exit. Everyone else had left to see what was happening with Aaron and Theodosia. Hamilton and I were the only two in the pub. `
So I ran to him.
I kissed him.
I felt all shame, all negativity wash away. This was right. This was me. I loved this man, and nothing could change who I was.
We walked home to Alexander's house together. It was dark, so nobody could see us. I pulled myself close to him as we walked home.
When we arrived at his house, we shared a bed. We made sure the door was locked, and the curtains were closed. I looked into Alex's eyes as he guided me to the bed.
We didn't have sex, we just fell asleep together. He brushed his soft fingers through my hair. And that's how I fell asleep.
At 2 o'clock in the morning, there was a knock at the door.
Hercules and Lafayette stood, crying.
"Aaron Burr." Lafayette said, comforting Hercules. "He's planning to ruin us."
