Greetings! This chapter is really short, but it will lengthen, this is the set-up. I am a bit overwhelmed with the reviews and story requests. I don't mind writing the stories, but some of the fandoms I just don't know, and others have birthday dates and stuff and yikes! If you want to write your stories, which I recommend you do, since you know them best, I recommend you get an account. I will start reading your stories right away if you PM me.
Please be patient with the stories, I'm really sorry if they don't get out on your birthdays exactly, but I will try to make them as close as possible. Thank you for reviewing!
Hannah Freeman: Thank you so much! I was actually looking for ways for John and Alex to get Philip and Theodosia together, your review was really helpful.
Sam Parks: Happy birthday soon! I will try to get that story out. Please be patient, I will try my hardest. Did you want multiple chapters or a one-shot or something in particular?
Batgirl'66: I would, but I don't know those fandoms and I'm really confused, I'm sorry. If you could provide more info maybe I can do that.
M.J.: I am working on your story! It is quite interesting! Is there anything in particular you want me to add? Some twist or something? Thomas Jefferson is an alien? Also, would you like multiple chapters, or one-shot, two-shot, etc.? Congratulations on sharing a birthday with Anthony Ramos, the actor of Philip and John!
Jessica F.: Thank you so much for the feedback! All the positive things make my day!
Hamilfan 321: Thank you so much for being generous with the time, I will start on that once I finish all the other stories, but don't worry, I'll get to it!
The next chapter should be out on Friday, maybe. Maybe this author's note will be longer than the actual chapter. Also, I'm planning to put out a quick chapter about John Laurens on Monday for John Laurens's birthday, so look out for that.
(THEODOSIA's Point-of-View)
Why am I here? Why am I here? Why am I here? I think anxiously.
From my position by his locker, I see Philip enter the building, smile at me, and walk toward his locker.
He is walking toward you! My brain shouts. Yeah, 'cause it's his locker, you idiot. My brain adds sarcastically.
"Hello, Philip!" I chirp as he approaches his locker.
"Hi Theodosia!" He replies, smiling. I feel the blush creep up my face.
He just said Hi. Why are you blushing? I chide myself.
He grabs his stuff, closes his locker, smiles that toothy grin at me again, and walks off to class. I stand there, staring awkwardly for a few moments.
Oh, Philip! Why are you so beautiful? I think to myself.
I have had a crush on Philip since the beginning of high school. That's when I met him officially, even though we've lived blocks from each other for years. We are now juniors. He acts a little weird around me, I hope it's because he likes me.
Since the world has advanced so much, several of my friends have told me to ask Philip on a date. I could never do that, though! What if he says no? My father has put genuine interest in my adequate education, and me asking about Philip could make him feel that I am focusing on the wrong things.
Oh, I wish that I could be with you Philip! I pine, before rushing off to my class as the bell rings.
