Hey! So, I know I said there will be two time skips. So, here they are!
The first one is weird. So, I'll arrange it according to each of five dates and three talks they have that are important to the story. Everyone involved in the mission thingy also gets a POV. Yay(Hamlet).
The second one is how the Hammies, Rachel, and Seabury spend their month. And Phillip's adorableness takes center stage in the chapter.
Just wanted to explain how the time skips will work. I'm skipping through time instead of skipping over it. Enjoy!
And y'all have probably already noticed my unpredictability with updates. :')
Date #1
P. Schuyler's POV
"Please," I begged. "I know it's a lot to ask, but it's for Eliza. Mom, Dad, please."
"Margarita," Mom began. "You care for Eliza deeply. So do we. But she's seventeen and still hasn't gotten over her first ex, way back when."
"You probably think we're making a mistake," Dad cut in. "But we don't have a reason to ban it. Other than the fact we don't like him."
"That's good enough!" I was annoyed. These two had given up all authority they had. "You're her parents! If you don't like a boy, then you don't have to let her date him!"
"But do you know how many perfect couples are split up or sneaking around because parents don't approve?" Mom asked defensively.
"Cause King and 'Liza are the perfect couple," I replied sarcastically. I crossed my arms and glared. Dad cut in and put his hand on my shoulder.
"If something bad happens let us know, okay?" he smiled.

"Stay with her," Mom directed. Eliza was crying in her room, Angie was watching the twins, and Mom and Dad had to leave. "The captain's called a meeting and Elizabeth obviously needs some support."
"If anything bad happens," Dad cut in, "let us know, okay?"
"Okay, bye," I responded and waved at them. After receiving two goodbye waves, I walked inside Eliza's room. Elizabeth?" I called.
"Don't call me that," she said, her voice low and shaky. "He called me that." I was taken by surprise since she used to insist we call her Elizabeth.
"Oh...um... 'Liza? Are you okay?" (This reference is so subtle, I want to know if people even got it. >:D)
"No!" she screamed. "Nobody loves me!" She threw a pillow at the wall and buried her face in her hands. I slowly made my way over and sat next to her.
"I do," I barely lifted the corners of my lips for a small smile. Eliza didn't see it and just kept ranting.
"What a terrible birthday present!" she continued screaming. "Nobody loves me!"
"I do," I repeated.
Eliza glared at me for a good minute before yelling, "You're useless!" She took another pillow and threw it at me. "Peggy, you don't count! You're my sister, we're forced to love each other!" A part of my heart broke when she said she was forced to love me, but I took a deep breath and ignored it.
