Lafayette's POV
As I watched precious Peggy leave the room I felt my heart drop. Like I had just messed up.bad. I know I did, I just need time to reflect, I guess. I don't know. "It's just Peggy. Peggy. Peggy. She's perfect. Her hair, her voice, her name. Peggy. Peggy. Peggy."I kept saying her name in my head thousands of times. I could not get this girl out of my head. She just made me feel uhhh. I can't even explain. Then I curly haired goof walked up to me

"Ayeeee Baguette!" John said with a slurred voice.

John was known for having to much to drink at party's or special events. So it did not surprise me to see him fall while trying to walk over to the couch.

"Is everything alright French Fry?"

I rolled my eyes. I knew that he would not remember any of this in the morning, so I told him how I felt.

"Mon ami, her name is Peggy. She is the best girl in the world. But I keep messing up whenever I try to speak to her or am just around her. Like I just spilt my drink on her. It was awful." I pored my heart out and needed help. Probably not from someone who can't remember his name at the moment but I was desperate.

"Well, it seems like you got a crush on this little Peg Leg. Look just act natural be the Lafayette we all know" he poked me really hard on my chest and continued "now come my bro, have a glass" I was underage so I knew I couldn't "have a glass" so I passed and stayed on the couch.
I couldn't get the whole night out of my head. I eventually passed out on the couch. I hoped that I wouldn't remember the whole dreadful night, but unlike John and Alex, I was sober.

"Damn, maybe one shot last night wouldn't have hurt."

I was the first one to wake up out of the four people in our dorm. I hoped everyone got home okay. I made breakfast for everyone. In France I took a few cooking lessons, so I knew just what to make. As I waited for everyone to wake up I felt a buzz in my pocket. It was a notification, FROM PEGGY! Well not directly from Peggy but it said something like this:

Peggleg just followed you on Instagram

Wait. Peggy followed me. This Baguette. On Instagram?! I was so happy. Now it might not be such a big deal, but in my mind I was one step closer to having a real conversation with her. Man, things are finally looking up.

Hi it is currently 1:02 am in the morning as I am writing this. So I hope you enjoyed!
