Alexander Hamilton || Falling for you (pt.7)

Dear General Washington,

I have a request. It may be inconvenient with the war but it would really help me at the moment. As you see, I'm pregnant. I found out a week ago, and right now I really need my husband Alexander with me to help me through. 

Please could you send him home. I don't want to have to raise my child without a father. Alexander has told me what it's like and I don't want to wish that upon anyone, let alone my child. 

As I said I know it may not be beneficial for our country for a man who works along side you to leave but I don't think going through pregnancy on my own is very good either. 

I beg of you to send him back to me. Back to his family

Yours sincerely, 

(Y/n) Hamilton 

I slide the letter into the envelope and seal it, I send it off and now we wait. 

I just hope Washington allows him to come home.

——————————

It's been about a month since I sent the first letter, I tried a couple times after but Alex never seemed to return. I've gotten a letter back from the General saying that he wishes me the best but he can't let someone like Alex go, not just yet. 

My bump has increased meaning the sisters and I have had to go shopping for some new dresses for me. Let me tell you, I wish that I could wear these dresses all the time. The ya re no way near as tight as the normal ones! 

The doctor visits every few weeks to make sure everything is going well. Which everything is. 

I'm currently sitting on the bench in the garden just watching the hours go by. I was slowly drifting off to sleep until I heard a voice I haven't heard in a long time.

"(Y/n)?" He calls from inside the house

I get up as quickly as I could from the bench and rush inside. I stand in the kitchen and Alex in the doorway.

"Alex" I smile, I walk over to him and embrace him and a tight hug, "I've missed you" I sniffle 

"I've missed you as well" 

"Wait, why's re you home?" I ask taking a step back, "what did you do?" I say crossing my arms and raising my eyebrows

"A duel happened" he mumbled 

"A duel! Alex you could have been killed! And I need you with me, for our baby" I yell

"I wasn't fighting, John was, he was against that bastard Charles- wait. Baby?" He says with wide eyes 

I nod my head slightly

"That's why Washington told me you need me alive. So he found out before me?" Alex asks

"I write to him about a month ago, a week after I found out. I begged him to send you home, but he said that he really needed you" I explain

"(Y/n), you should have told me, I could have tried to tell Washington to let me leave for a little while" Alex sighs

"Look that doesn't matter now, you're alive and here. Let me and our child be enough for you. Would that be enough?" I question 

"You're all I need" he smiles planting a small kiss on my lips.

The day had finally arrived. As soon as my water broke the doctor was by my side. I was almost breaking Elizas hand as I was giving birth but as soon as crying filled the room I relaxed slightly just focusing on my breathing. 

"It's a boy!" The doctor shouts, I turn to Eliza to go tell Alex and Angelica the news. 

After the doctor cleaned the baby he passed him to me. He quickly stopped crying and a small smile appeared, not only in his but on my face too

The doctor done a few last checks before leaving me and my new family. 

"What are we naming him?" Alex asks me 

"Philip, after grandfather" I smile 

"That's our fathers name, that's funny" Eliza laughs 

We all share a little giggle before focusing on the content baby laying in my arms. I pass him to Alex whilst I go to get washed and dressed. Angelica helps me out of the room and begins to run the bath for me. She leaves as I'm about to get in.

Philip is now three months old and his freckles keep on multiplying and his curls keep on growing. 

I was making food when Alex came running in

"I'm going back to war!" He says excitedly 

I drop the spoon in the food as I freeze 

"Why?" I ask

"Washington wants me to lead a group of men, he has a feeling this will be the end of the war, Yorktown. That's where we're going. I know you don't want me to leave but I promise I won't get hurt and I'll be back in no time. I wouldn't want to leave you and Philip alone" 

"Okay" I mumble, he's right I don't want him to go, but it's not like I'm going to be alone anymore, I have Philip. "Please don't get killed" 

—————————-

"(Y/n) Philip? I'm home!" Alex yells from the front door 

Philip runs over to him and Alex lifts him high into the arm before giving him a hug

"You're so big now! How old are you? 12?" Alex smiles 

"No im 1" Philip corrects him 

Alex laughs before looking over to me, he puts Philip down and runs over to me, he picks me up and swings me around making me giggle

"I've missed you. It's been too long" I say giving him a kiss after he puts me back down 

"Now I can be with you all the time, now that we've won" he smiles giving me another kiss 

"I'm so proud of you" I say hugging him again 

"I missed you pop" Philip says waddling over and hugging our legs
