I'm honestly super impressed with myself for having this up so early. I wrote it at night. I had been doing super well with not doing that for some time, but now I break my streek. Which was probably super short.

I don't own Hamilton.

Chapter Nineteen

"Is he alive?" Theodosia questioned her father-in-law as she ran to the room her husband was in, "Meggie needs her father! I do, too. Even more so now…"

Instead of letting Alexander answer, she threw open the door. There was Philip laying on a bed with Eliza next to him. Before Theo had entered the two of them had been talking quietly to each other. His wife didn't wait to see him. There was nothing that could stop her.

"Philip? Philip!" she cried, kneeling next to him.

Her husband grinned. "My dear Theodosia, what to say to you?"

The woman held him with all her might. Even through all the pain Philip let himself enjoy it. Both of them were alive. All was well.

"Don't you ever do that again!" scolded Theodosia, "Do you know how worried I was? I can't lose you! Meggie needs you… Meggie.."

"Theo, Meggie died. Don't you remember? Both of you were sick. Especially her. It's sad, but it's true." Philip took his wife's hands.

"No!" she exclaimed, ripping her hands away from him. "Stop saying that! It's a cruel, sick joke! I almost hate you for it! My daughter's alive! Stop it!"

Eliza put a hand on the girl's shoulder. "Teddy, Philip's right. It was a hard time for all of us. We're all very sad about it," she said, gently.

Theodosia sat up as quickly as possible, tearing her mother-in-law's hand from her. She took a deep breath and closed her eyes. When she finally opened them they were filled with tears. Philip gestured for her to embrace him. But Theo looked away from him.

"Don't." the girl stomped. "My child is well. Margareta Burr Hamilton is just fine. I'm only worried because I forgot about her. I'm a terrible mother! But I think that my father is at home with her now. I need to stop stressing about that." Suddenly, she chuckled to herself. "I can't be too overprotective of her, can I now?"

No one spoke. Theodosia seemed satisfied at her company's reactions. She presented herself as if she had won a battle with three hundred men all by herself.

"Wait, Teddy-" Alexander began.

"The least person I should be hearing from is you, Mr. Hamilton. Liar. Thief. Traitor. If it weren't for Eliza's kindness I wouldn't have married into this family at all," Theodosia interrupted.

"Theo!" Philip exclaimed.

"Hush, Pip," she interjected, "I have some big news. I think that your going to be a father again."

With that Theodosia left the room.

Aaron walked to his daughter's home. With silence. Everything had been quiet lately. Ever since he had shot Hamilton. He was grateful to God. If there was a God above. Perhaps it was just luck.

When the Burr knocked on the door there was no answer. He knew where the extra key was. After letting himself in, he realized that no one was home. Usually Theodosia was singing to herself. It was no lie to say that she couldn't sing very well. Not at all. His late wife's voice sounded like a rusty pipe. Though, she always told him that Aaron sounded like an angel. Even though he disagreed Aaron still loved to sing for his little girl. Whenever Theodosia would cry Aaron was the one to get her. He made up a song for her. A lullaby that he always whispered in her ear.

Aaron was in the middle of one of his favorite dreams when he heard her. Theodosia's sobs came from the other room. Just as they always had, the sound broke the man's heart. Aaron heard his wife groan from beside him.

"Don't worry, I'll get her," he whispered into her ear.

Out of the bed and into Theodosia's room to keep her from crying. His task was simple. But everything complicated it. Getting out of bed was like being in the war again. But as soon as the baby cried out again, Aaron bolted out of the bed and to his daughter's room. He picked her up. Just as his wife had shown him Aaron supported her head as he held her.

"Dear Theodosia, what to say to you? You have my eyes. You have your mother's name," Aaron began singing, "When you came into the world, you cried and it broke my heart..."

The two of them were outside, playing. Theodosia was the witty princess while Aaron was playing the role as the evil dragon. He scoped her off of the ground.

"No fair, evil monster!" Theo exclaimed, pouting her lower lip.

"I'm going to eat you, Princess Theodosia!" said her father.

"Not if I've got anything to say about it!"

With her statement, Theodosia leaped out of her father's arms. She punched him lightly on the leg. Aaron fell down like the slayed beast he was. As his daughter ran off, she giggled. But the man was able to catch her once again, even from his position.

"Daddy sing me my song," the little girl ordered.

"You will come of age with our young nation. We'll bled and fight for you. We'll make it right for you. If we lay a strong enough foundation, we'll pass it on to you. We'll give the world to you and you'll blow us all away. Someday, someday. Yeah, you'll blow us all away. Someday, someday…"

That was what she had done. Theodosia was blowing him away every day. Through the good. The bad. Aaron was even impressed about how she was handling Meggie's death. When her mother died, Theodosia went into excessive mourning. This was better than what happened before.

As Aaron waited in the house, he heard someone at the door. It sounded more like two people. Two bickering boys. When he looked through the window, Aaron noticed that they were two of the Hamilton boys. He rolled his eyes before answering it.

"How could you say that?" one was shouting. James, Aaron thought. "Take it back!"

"Why should I?" the other shot. Alex.

"What is it, you two?" he interrupted, sighing.

"Oh." James blushed. "Mr. Burr."

There was an awkward pause between the three of them. Before Alex elbowed James. His brother looked like he was going to scream at Alex. But a hard glare from Aaron stopped him.

"Um, Mr. Burr, we're here to inform you that our dearest older brother dueled George Eacker once again. But we have gotten news that he is going to make a full recovery," announced James.

If it that piece of information wasn't so intense, Burr would have rolled his eyes at how James made everything so formal. From what he had heard that was part of why the ladies fell for him. Aaron shrugged it off. His son-in-law was an idiot. Just like his father.

Thank goodness he was at least okay.

So I'm not going to do the question a day thing or fun fact anymore. Sorry, it's just too stressful for me. But if you really want you can pm me andI'd be happy to give you that information.

Thanks for reading! Please review!
