Eliza POV
When I wake up I have a bad stomach ache. I look at my clock. It's 1:33 a.m. Next thing I know I'm running to my bathroom to spill my guts into just barely making the toilet. Then I hear Alexander.
"Babe is that you?"
"No it's Oprah!" I yell between breaths.
"I'm coming,"
"Mhmm," I say.
Alexander pulls back my hair and rubs my back. Once I'm done barfing we sit on the couch.
"I think you have a stomach bug,"
"I don't think so. I think I ate something bad yesterday. Those dumplings did taste weird you know," I say remembering pushing that thought to side yesterday. I regret not taking it into consideration that I could get sick.
"I'll sleep on the couch since I'm sick and if I need water I can get it from the kitchen," I say as he looks at me.
"Let's watch a movie and decide,"
"Ok,"
When we are like halfway through the movie I drift off to sleep. Then I wake up to him carrying me to our room.
"I won't let my Betsey sleep on the couch. I'm gonna take care of you," he whispers in my ear while kissing my cheek.
"I love you,"
"I know Betsey I know," he says walking out of the room.
I drift off to sleep. When I wake up again I am hungry and extremely hot. I feel my forehead and discover I have a fever. When I come downstairs there is chips and crackers along with little cookies on the granite.
"What's this?" I ask rubbing my eyes.
"I went out two hours ago for food for you,"
"Thanks babe but you didn't have to do all this,"
"Gotta take care of my bride,"
"I won't object,"
"I wouldn't let you,"
"You're amazing," I say as he tries to kiss me.
"Oh come on let me kiss my bride,"
"Not while I'm sick I don't want to get you sick," I say moving to the coffee machine.
"So you do admit it wasn't dumplings!" He says looking at me.
"I think it's a stomach bug maybe one of those 24 hour ones. So no kissing me until I'm all better," I say.
"Aw but I wanna kiss you," he says pouting.
"Too bad," I tease.
We sit on the couch and watch movies for an hour or so. Then there is a knock at the door. It's Alexander's friends.
"What's up guys?" He asks them.
"We are bored," they all say in unison.
"Well Eliza is sick," he says.
"Too bad we are staying," Lafayette says and I don't object it's their fault if they get sick.
"Hey Eliza what's up with you?" Laurens asks me.
"Stomach bug or something like that,"
"That sucks man," Hercules says.
"It sure does,"
"And someone won't admit that they shouldn't sleep on the couch or that they are sick," Alexander says looking at me.
"I slept in our bed and admitted I'm sick already what more could you want from me?" I ask jokingly "annoyed"
"I want a kiss from you but you won't kiss me!" He says.
"I'll kiss you," Lafayette says.
"That's Laurens job Lafayette," Hercules says as John winks at Alexander.
"I can kiss you too Eliza," John says winking at me.
"Sorry I'm taken and so is Alexander,"
I stand up to grab some crackers and while I'm in the kitchen I see the boys whispering and giggling like girls at a sleepover. Then Alex nods his head. When I'm heading backwards in with a bowl of crackers for myself and another bowl of crackers for the boys cause germs. Lafayette grabs the bowl for me and Hercules grabs the bowl for the guys and Alexander wraps his arms around my hips from behind me and kisses my check. He then turns around and pulls me into a very passionate kiss that I was trying really hard to avoid so I don't get him sick.
"Alexander Hamilton!" I yell as he smirks at me.
"I just needed one kiss," he said trying to pull me in for another.
"And that's all your gonna get. I don't want to get you sick," I say.
"Eliza if we are gonna get married we are gonna get each other sick. I only want you to be the woman who gets me sick," he says while I say,"aw."
"That's sweet but really gross at the same time," John said while grabbing a handful of crackers.
"So we saw your sisters," Lafayette said looking at his feet.
"And?" I ask.
"Angelica told us that if any of us did anything to hurt Eliza she'll kill us."
"Laf you forgot the part where Peggy told us she will make our lives miserable in ways we couldn't imagine if we ever did anything to Eliza," Hercules adds.
"That's my sisters," I say smiling.
"How'd Angelica take the engagement?" Alex asks me.
"Um well she did better than I thought she would," I say in a concerned voice.
Then there was a knock at the door and within two seconds of answering it Angelica had already gone straight to Alex and was hugging him. Something is up.
