Another chapter dedicated to my shookend friend: @_12fangirl10_ . I would also like to dedicate this chapter to a person, who after I read and supported their fanfic, they came to support me, 

@SlothCookiw . Thank you guys!

I wake up to the sound of Alexander, snoring. I hear chuckling and giggling in the background.

"I wish I could treasure this moment", a familiar voice snorted. Probably Laurens. 

"Oh my god, I can't wait to know what happened", a voice with a French accent whispered, Lafayette.

I was waiting for Hercules to say something but realized, he was spying on the redcoats. I opened my eyes and sat up on the bed, "You guys are disgusting, nothing happened", I growled. 

The boys just laughed even harder, which made Alexander wake up. Alexander saw Laurens and Lafayette laughing and his face turned really red.

"Sure, NOTHING HAPPENED", Lafayette sarcastically mentioned.

"May I call the witness, Alexander", I pretended to be a lawyer.

"Yes, ma'am", saluted Alexander.

"Did anything happen?", I asked.

"No, ma'am", Alexander winked, which made the boys laugh so hard, they fell to the ground.

"Wait till Hercules hears this", Laurens smirked.

"Even worse, wait till General Washington hears this", Lafayette calmed down.

Everyone stopped laughing when they realized what might happen to poor Alexander.

"Oh, don't worry. No one will hear about this, especially Hercules and Washington. Because I am going to follow you around so none of you say a thing.", I crossed my arms.

"Y/N, how are you doing?", a voice caught everyone's attention. I kicked Alexander out of my bed and pulled the sheets to pretend I was sleeping.

"Ow", Alexander cried.

"Shh, pretend I was sleeping this whole time", I whispered.

"How's she doing?", Dad walked into the tent.

"Oh, she's perfectly fine", Laurens tried to hide his smile.

I could hear footsteps as Dad came towards me, "How are you doing?", he patted me on the back.

I got up, "Better! Now if you excuse me I have a war to fight". I tried to get out of the bed but was stopped.

"Sorry, you need your rest", dad tucked me in like a child.

I escaped from the bed, anger rushing through me, "WHY DOES EVERYONE TREAT ME LIKE A BABY? I'M SORRY BUT I DON'T WANT TO BE TREATED LIKE I'M MADE OF GLASS! OKAY?", I clenched my hands into fists and felt my fingernails cut into my palm, I didn't cry. I ran out of the tent and I didn't look back. 

--------------------------------------------

I chugged down beer as I felt the anger disappear. Why? Why does everyone treat me like something rare? Delicate even? I wish I could go back to the time when Abuelo and Abuela were here. They weren't this protective, at least I don't remember them like that. I looked at my palms, which have been bleeding non-stop, but the blood stopped. I feel a pat on my shoulder and I quickly grabbed the person's wrist and turn to look them straight in the face.

"OW!", Alexander yelled.

I let go, "Sorry, last time someone tapped me, I ended up on the redcoats' territory".

"Well that makes sense", he sat down in the chair next to me.

"Well, what are you doing here?", I asked.

"I came to check on you. General Washington told me to, but I was going to come see you, even if your dad didn't ask", he sighed.

"Well, I'm fine. So you can go back to whatever you were doing", I took a sip of a new beer I got.

He grabbed my free hand, "You are clearly not", he examined my palm, "I'm sorry", he hugged me.

"For what?", I hugged back.

"For treating you like you are made of glass. For worrying about you.", he let go of me and looked into my eyes.

"It's fine. I forgive you. Will you forgive me for yelling?", I fiddled with the mug and looked at my palms.

He grabbed my face and kissed my lips, "Of course". He backed away, scared of me not accepting his feelings.

I grabbed his face and kissed him, telling him I love him...

"Well, well", a familiar voice said. I looked, it was Lee. "Wait till the General hears that his daughter and his right-hand man are together. I'm sure that would end well", he threatened.

I walked over to him, "Over my dead body".

"It will be, don't worry", he chuckled. He grabbed my face violently and forced me into a kiss, I tried to back away, but I couldn't.

"Lee, you are the most disgusting human being ever", Alexander was pissed.

Lee played with my hair, as he held me, "What are you going to do about it, huh?"

Laurens stepped in, "I challenge you to a duel"
