Most of this is in Alex's pov

Alex's pov (about 1 week after the arguement)

I'm stood Infront of Philip Schuyler trying not to die

"Sir, I'm here to ask your permission to marry your daughter" I ask my heart beating

He's silent for a moment

Eliza's sat behind him looking like she's about to die herself

She's just as scared as me

"When Y/N told me she had a brother, I never expected for the first time meeting him would be him asking for my permission to marry my daughter" he laughs a little, I didn't expect him to mention Y/N.

She may or may not be still mad at me

"But I've seen just how much my daughter loves you. My only wish is that you stay true to her." Philip smiles at me as Eliza bursts out in happy tears

I smile back at him suddenly full of confidence

"I promise, I will stay true to her" I look him in the eye as I say that

Hahahaha will you really stay true to her Alex? 😈

Philip smiles and steps out of the way to reveal Angelica smiling and clapping her hands.

1 week later

"Alex have you still not made up with your sister?" Eliza asks turning to look at me

I look away. I'd managed to take Eliza out for a walk in the town and so far she hadn't mentioned Y/N, but my luck's got to run out at some point

"No.... I haven't seen her that often. I think she's been staying at a hotel just to avoid me" I look back at Eliza

"You can't avoid each other forever" Eliza says

"You sound like John" I laugh a little

"There's no point laughing about it, have you even told her about the wedding?" She's asks

"No..." I say once more

"Tell her and make up with her. I've got to go, I promised I'd meet up with Peggy to sort the dress out" Eliza turns, unlinks her arm from mine and walks away

Lafayette's pov

I sit downstairs in the bar area waiting for Y/N to finish getting changed

She refuses to stay in the tent with Alex

There both being stubborn

So I've come to talk to Y/N

"Hey taffy" she sits down next to me her she was wearing her uniform with pride not afraid of showing her gun of

I lean over "you need to be careful there's still a lot of redcoats in this area" I whisper in her ear looking around the room cautiously

"Why do you think I chose this area to stay in" she smiles back maliciously

I shiver, she's so dark but I love her

"Changing the subject. You need to makeup with Alex" I look at her

She snorts "I'm not apologizing to him"

"I'm not saying you have to just, please come back to the tent. Everything is so dark and gloomy without you there to make it funny. Mulligan's usually out visiting his wife, Alex is up most of the night writing while Johnny is just trying to get him to go to sleep. Please come back Nous avons besoin de votre bonheur" I beg her, it's so depressing with out her around

"I'm coming back to camp today, so I'll see" she looks away

She gets off the bar stool and heads towards the door that leads to the stairs

"You coming to help me pack or not?" She asks

I get off the bar stool and follow her up the stairs.

Let's just say we didn't exactly "pack"

I cringed writing the last part 😂

Mmmm I thought I wasn't going to be able to post this because I hadn't had it written till today but ya know me

So of course I managed to get it done

Okay dokey piggety pokey
