A/N: y'all are going to hate me for this but this is a really sad chapter and TBH there will be a lot more.
TW: death and mention of suicide.
Alex POV:
I was staying at the hospital. Peggy had chosen two people to stay with her after visiting hours. Lafayette (duh) and I.
Peggy and I were close friends. I hated seeing her like this. It didn't seem to faze her though. When my mother and I were sick, all I could think about was getting better or dying. Dying seemed like the easiest option at some points but I never wanted to hurt anyone.
Peggy didn't seem to care whether she lived or died. She knew she would die but she was making sure each moment was spent around people she loved. She and I would talk for hours, and when she was asleep, I would sit beside her and remember all the conversations and fun we had throughout our lives.
Lafayette, on the other hand, was a complete disaster. I don't blame him though. The love of his life was about to die. He kept blaming himself.
Lafayette POV:
I held Peggy's hand. She was talking to Alex about some bird or something. I just wanted her to get better but I knew it would be hard. The doctor already said she probably would only live a few more days.
As I held her hand, I could feel her getting weaker. The nurses came in and tried everything but they shook their heads, then left.
I had Eliza bring Paris to the hospital to say goodbye to her mother. Paris hugged Peggy and cried. I joined the hug and cried more. I heard Peggy try to say something.
"My loves.. Lafayette, Paris.. and Peggy..." she said.
The heart monitor went flat.
The love of my life was now gone ... forever. Paris and I sobbed for a good half an hour before composing ourselves.
We went home and sobbed some more. I will take care of my daughter. I will be both mother and father for her. She will be happy someday and Peggy would be so proud.
