We interrupt Unforgettable for this message: It's Super Bowl Day! Thank you AprilLudgateKarateDwyer for this amazing idea! Also thank you tumblr post for some ideas with this! I know nothing about football so I hope this turns out alright. (Unforgettable part 3 is still in process by the way)
"Chips?"
"Check."
"Dip?"
"Check."
"Other typical Super Bowl party food?"
"Check and check."
"Good!" Angelica beamed, "We have everything we need."
The Schuyler sisters (and Maria Reynolds) were throwing the squad Super Bowl party this year. It was usually thrown by Laurens or Hercules and one time it was even Burr, but this time Peggy thought it was a good idea for the girls to host it instead. Jefferson was skeptical of them being able to throw a good one since Peggy didn't even watch football. Naturally Angelica saw it as a challenge ("Jefferson please you don't even watch football!")
They had decorated the dorm room with balloons and streamers.
"The boys are almost here," Maria said scrolling through her phone.
Maria had done everyone's hair and makeup hours before. Peggy felt there was no reason to, but there was no arguing with Maria.
"Oh joy," Angelica rolled her eyes.
It wasn't that she minded the boys she just knew how loud they could be on Super Bowl. Super Bowl night involved a lot of shouting.
All the girls turned to the door at the sound of a knock.
"I'll get it!" Peggy sprung out from the couch.
"Hold on love," Angelica wiped cupcake frosting from Peggy's nose, "Okay go on."
Peggy ran to the door and opened it. John, Alexander, Hercules, Lafayette, and Burr were all at the door.
"Peggy!" They all shouted with huge grins. (Except Burr who regarded her with a wave.)
"Hey guys! Come on in!" Peggy greeted them with a grin of her own, "Hey Aaron. Where's Theodosia?"
"She couldn't come today," Burr shrugged.
"Aw no Theo?" Eliza asked.
Theodosia was a sometimes member of the squad. She was pretty chill.
"One minute!" Maria called from the couch.
Immediately everyone stopped what they were doing to sit down. Maria, Eliza, and Angelica took the couch, Hercules took the armchair, John and Laf took the bean bag chairs, Burr took the floor and Peggy took John's lap.
"First college Super Bowl party let's go!" Peggy cheered.
!
"From sea to shining sea!"
"That was so beautiful oh my gosh," Peggy clapped.
"They rocked it," Maria said, "The and sisterhood though."
"It's funny, they kind of look like you girls," Alexander said shoveling popcorn in his mouth.
There was a beat of silence until Eliza spoke up.
"I don't see it."
!
"So what'd I miss?"
Just like that the fun of watching TV was broken. Jefferson, followed by Madison, burst into the room. They all turned to him. Angelica huffed, here comes the loudness.
"Hiya Thomas and James!" Peggy waved drinking her soda (It was her second can already).
"Yo," John gave a slight wave.
"You missed stuff," Alexander said.
"Mind telling me what?" Jefferson asked taking a seat on the floor.
"Nope."
!
The first commercial was spent playing around on Maria's snapchat, Peggy eating cupcakes, Hercules talking about the football unform choices and everyone laughing and eating.
"Okay, but Laf's first Super Bowl with us," John laughed.
"I was confused! To be fair, Amercian football isn't even played with your feet!" Lafayette said.
"I have videos," Hercules snorted, "Wanna see?"
"Oh yes please," Jefferson smirked.
"No! That contains fetus me, I will not go down the road of pigtail Alex again!" Alexander snatched Hercules phone out of his hand.
"What happened again?" Peggy asked.
"It was our first Super Bowl party ever. We were at my house and we had no clue what we were doing," John said, "Halftime was great though."
"I remember that!" Eliza laughed, "Alex and John were dancing!"
"Can we not?" Alexander said.
"Hey, I do a mean tango." John shrugged.
!
The fun and games were short lived.
"Oh come on! You know he could've made a touch down!" Thomas shouted, "He had the perfect opportunity!"
"Someone's been reading a rule book," Angelica commented.
"Actually Ang, he didn't because if he did he would've realized that he would have been blocked if he attempted a touch down." Alexander said
"He would've scored his team a point! It's all about the big picture Hamilton," Thomas countered.
Madison looked over the book he was reading. He was wondering when they would start disagreeing. They continued bickering for five minutes until Maria whacked them both on the head with a pillow.
"Shut it."
!
Halftime. No one could argue that it was the best part of the whole party. Eliza brought out more snacks (including football shaped cupcakes she and Peggy had made), and Lady Gaga was performing. Naturally, Peggy was ready to dance.
"I'm on the right track baby I was born this way!" she sang and grabbed Madison's hands to pull him to dance.
They all started laughing.
"Peggy, I'm good really," he said, "I'm not even supposed to be dancing, I'm sick."
"Fun is the best cure for a cold!" Peggy insisted.
Turns out, Madison was an excellent dancer. Alexander and Thomas had their own Lady Gaga lip sync battle and Eliza and Angelica were dancing. Peggy brought out her own selection of noisemakers and confetti. They all settled down when Lady Gaga started singing A Million Reasons.
"Peggy! You're missing it!" John called from the floor.
"Comin'!" Peggy was eating her tenth cupcake of the day.
"Okay, that's enough sugar," Hercules got up and picked her up so that she was hanging over his shoulder.
He placed her on Lafayette's lap. Peggy stuck her tongue out at him.
!
"What was that?" Alexander said.
"Ha! Told you they'd win," Thomas smirked.
"But they were so far behind!" Alexander was screeching, "They weren't supposed to win!"
"Underdogs always win," Madison shrugged.
Alexander planted his face in a pillow. Thomas threw a handful of confetti at him.
"Surprised Hamilton?"
"I have to admit, this was an awesome party," John laughed.
"Why thank you John, but the credit goes to Peggy," Eliza smiled.
"Thanks Pegs," Hercules said and got no answer in response, "Yo Pegs?"
They all turned to Peggy who had fallen asleep on the floor.
"Sugar crash," Burr said.
Everyone got a good laugh at that.
