Hamliza (modern day)

chapter 9

Alexander

Eliza fell asleep on my shoulder. How cute. I pick her up bridal style and take her to her room. I lay her down and kiss her forehead. I lay down next to her and I accidently fall asleep next to her.
...

Eliza

The next day I wake up to something wrapped around me. I look and see a arm. I look at who's arm it is and see Alex's face behind me. I flip over and close my eyes and pretend to sleep. I nuzzle my face into his chest and curl up into a ball. I smile and fall asleep again. The next time I wake up is because i hear my aisters giggling and a camera going off. I role my eyes and turn my face to them. I glare at them and they srop giggling and run. Alex eventually wakes up and we get ready for the day. I go downstairs and breakfast is already made. Alex and I eat in silence. We both go back upstairs and we go into the living room that is upstairs.

"WHO ATE MY EGGS AND TOAST!?" I hear angelica yell.

I start giggling with alex snickering. I than snort.

"Aww that was so cute." Alex says laughing.

I stop laughing and turn red. I look at my hands.

"Sorry." He says.

"Its fine," I say giggling.

"So what should we do?" He asks.

"I have no idea." I say.

After awhile of silence I start talking.

"Boy ya got me helpless I look into your eyes and well the sky's the limit." I whisper.

"Where'd that come from?" He asks.

"I just made that up." I say.

"Oh that was nice." He says.

We sit in silence for a little more.

"Eliza as long ad your alive I swear to god youll never feel so-" he starts with me interrupting.

"Helpless." I say.

"Maybe we were meant to be." He says.

I laugh. I hear wind and rain pounding outside and all of a sudden the lights go out.

"AHHH." I scream shoving my face into alexs chest. He puts his arms around me. I lift my head up and I see Alex's face. We look eachother in the eyes and we start leaning in closer and closer. I feel his breath on mine. All of a sudden the door flies open and the lights turn on. We jump away from eachother and I see ange at the doorm.

"Oh I was gonna see if the power was out in here but I guess the power came back on." She says laughing. "Oh by the way laffayette and herc are coming over. They said theyre also bringing a mew kid named john Laurens?"

I see alexs face drop blank and his eyes go wide. Whoever this laurens is alex must know him.
