"I Will Love You, Even Through Death." (Phillip Hamilton X Reader)

Start from the beginning
                                        

"And?" Eliza's voice is small, reflecting the fear you feel.

"He was shot in the side...he's losing a lot of blood. You need to come immediately."

Eliza and you look at each other. Her face is a mixture of confusion, fear, and worry. You can only imagine that yours looks the same.

She nods at the messenger, then flees back into the house. She returns a second later, holding both her and your shawls.

"Let's go."

*Time skip again 🥱*

We rush into the room that we were indicated. Eliza entered first running to a bed opposite the door.

"Is he breathing? Is he going to survive this?" She turns and looks at her husband, who stood hunched over the bed. "Who did this? Alexander did you know?"

You hurry over.

There, laying on the bed, white cloths stained red, was Phillip Hamilton.

His breathing was shallow; his face pale.

"Ma, I'm so sorry for forgetting what you taught me..." he was saying to his mother.

He paused when he saw you. "(Y/N)...."

Mr and Mrs Hamilton moved out of the way so you could get closer to your would-be fiancé.

You crouched down by his head so you could be level with him. Phillip reached out side hand to you, which you took and gripped tightly.

"Babe...babe I love you." He whispered to you, his voice faint.

"Shh, you are going to be okay, it will all be okay." Your throat tightened, having gone dry. Phillip laying in front of you swam in in out of focus, due to the tears pooling in your eyes.

You reach out your free hand and brush back his long hair from his face. He catches your hand in his and brings it to his lips.

You move closer, only inches apart now.

He released your right hand and picked something up off the sheets from next to him.

"I know it's too late for me now...but I still want to ask you." Phillip pressed a small box into your hand.

You look at it, tears now spilling over freely. It's a small black box, and inside it is a beautiful diamond ring.

"(Y/N) (Y/L/N)....I love you. Will you do the honor of marrying me?"

Chocking back a sob, you nod at Phillip. "Y-yes. Yes I will."

You remove the ring from the box and help him put it on your finger.

From behind you you hear crying from Eliza as she watches her son bleed to death.

"Kiss me." Phillip says, barely audible. "Kiss me."

Despite having courted for two years, you and Phillip have never truly kissed, only friendly pecks here and there. And now your first real kiss with him was going to be as he bled out from a gunshot wound.

Leaning closer, you carefully press your lips against his. His arm wound its way behind you and Phillip pulled you into him.

Your first kiss was bittersweet, the taste of salt from your tears reminding how much you are about to lose. Phillips lips were soft, yet he kissed you with such passion that if it weren't for the horrid memories of the past half an hour, you'd think he was in perfect health.

When you finally broke apart, Phillips breathing had decreased significantly. He looked at you with a faint smile, his eyes full of love.

"You'r-You're so beautiful, my love. I will always love you, ev-even through death. Stay strong, (Y/N)...I love you."

As he spoke, your fiancé got quieter and quieter, until his voice completely faded away. The arm behind your back went slack, his eyes glassed over.

Eliza let out a heart wrenching wail behind you, but it was no good.

He was gone.

Phillip Hamilton was dead.

**BONUS EPILOGUE** (to hurt you some more)

After the funeral, you moved in with Alexander and Eliza. You hadn't taken your engagement ring off since that day not long ago.

The Hamilton's moved uptown to learn to live their new life.

It's quiet uptown.

A/N: I Don't know if I love or hate this one shot...it was painful to write. On the plus side, that's the first kiss I have ever written, so some good came out of it. At least I hope it was well written. Anyway... please check out my Wattpad @ awesomeappaloosa1 and my tumblr @ AwesomeAppaloosa. That's all for today!

I don't feel like editing that authors note at the end so I'm not. But this oneshot was after I spent a couple months not writing or doing anything fandom related except fangirling, so I guess the break I took helped.  This is where my writing improves a lot
