Eliza smiled at me.

"Let's talk a bit more, dear. You said you were in the revolution?"

"Wow, really? I wouldn't even have the guts to join the rev-" Her younger sister, Peggy would've kept rambling if Angelica didn't stop her.

"Peggy, we understand." Angelica smiled at Peggy.

I giggled, and nodded my head.

"It's quite scary, actually."

"Have you killed anyone yet?" Peggy asked me.

I immediately thought of the note, and my eyes teared up.

"Oh, I'm sorry! I didn't mean to-" She had a worried look on her face.

"No, no. It's ok." I smiled at Peggy.

"Anyway, has anyone caught your eye?" Angelica changed the subject, sitting beside me.

"Well... There this one guy." I blushed at the thought of what we've done.

"Ooh! What's his name?" Eliza giggled.

"Marie--" Peggy interrupted me before I could even say his full name.

"YOU'RE LESBIAN? THAT'S GREAT"

"no... i couldn't finish.." I blushed.

"My bad." She blushed, and buried her face in Eliza's shoulder.

"Marie Joseph-Paul Yves Roch Gilbert du Motier, Marquis de Lafayette" I surprisingly memorized that... how...

"THE FRENCHIE?" Angelica was really happy. She had a HUGE grin on her face.

"Yeah..." I blushed.

"You're perfect for each other!" Eliza smiled at me.

"Thanks." My smile was bigger than Charles Lee's ego.

"Does he like you back?" Peggy budged in again. It was adorable.

"Well, technically... Yes." I smiled again.

"Are you dating?" Eliza and Peggy both stood up and said that at the same time.

"Yeah, kind of."

We gave each other our addresses. I told Eliza to contact Alexander every time she wanted to write to me.

"John, you have to be careful".
I worried for my brother.

Both him and Lee were about to duel. We walked all the way to Jersey, reciting the Ten Duel Commandments.

We reached the duel grounds, and said Nine.

"Number nine! Look him in the eye, aim no higher. Summon all the courage you require, then count."

"One, two, three-" Lee was shaking. So was John. I could tell that they had their lives flashing before their eyes.

"Four, five, six, seven-" My heart was racing. I couldn't lose John.

"Eight, nine-" Lafayette held my ears, and pulled me to his chest.

"NUMBER TEN PACES, FIRE!"
I buried my head in Laf's chest as I heard a gunshot.

"Lee do you yield?" Alex ran up to Lee.

I looked up for a second. Laf smiled.

"You shot him in the side, yes he yields!" Burr ran up beside him.

"I'm satisfied." John gathered himself together.

"We gotta clear the field!" Some men who were watching screamed.

"Go, we won!" I shouted to Alex and John.

"Here comes the general!" The men ran back to the field for the juicy drama.

"This should be fun." Burr walked up beside Laf and I.

"What is the meaning of this?" Washington was maaad. He crossed his arms.

"Ms. Laurens, get a medic for the general." He looked at me.

"Yes sir!" I pulled Laf and Burr.
-

I turned around for a second to see what was happening.

"Hamilton!" Washington turned to face Alexander.

"Sir!" Alex drew his attention to the bald man.

"Meet me inside!" His voice got more serious.
