Helpless?

A winters ball

Angelica Schuyler entered the ballroom, her sisters close behind her. Angelica , the oldest, and the wittiest stood in front of the two younger girls. Elizabeth was the middle sister, sweet and kind. Peggy, the youngest, did her own thing. She was kindhearted.

She stepped to the centre of the ball, keeping her fathers words close in mind. "You need to find a husband," he whispered to her , before she grabbed her dress, and ran to the carriage. Her hopes had vanished , every man seemed rude, and touchy. She couldn't go anywhere without someone grabbing her hand. She rolled her eyes, moving back over to her sister Peggy. "Who's this?" She mouthed over to her. "Lafayette!" She half-screamed. Angelica rolled her eyes, and laughed at her. Her dress bounced with her waist length curls as she hopped around the ballroom. She sighed , her shoulders rolling back, smiling faintly. She then immediately fixing her posture , her shoulder being touched. She wasn't scared , and it wasn't someone trying to - "You strike me, as a woman who has never been satisfied." The man said. He was handsome- boy does he know it. She smiled , her cheeks threatening to fade pink. She sighed , pushing out her hip. "I'm sure I don't know what you mean, you forget yourself." She said flipping her dark curls. "You're like me, I'm never satisfied," he smiled. I met his eyes , falling deep into them. So much passion, you could see his story through his beautiful eyes. "Is that right?" She said softly, and he winked. They matched wits , and Angelica wanted to scream. "Ive never been satisfied." He bent , and kissed her knuckles. Angelica fell into a trance. "My name is Angelica Schuyler." She smiled , hoping that she would now find someone to change Schuyler with. "Alexander Hamilton." He smiled , placing his hands on her waist. 'Angelica hamilton' that had a nice ring to it. She laughed too herself, her heart beating out of her chest. "Where's Your family from?" She said , her face less than an inch away. He Fidgeted his hands , trying to remain calm. "Unimportant there's a million things I haven't done. Just you wait-
just you wait."
Damn- she fell for a poor boy. She forget to think of this, her mind falling into the dance , she wanted to take him far away from this place! "I'll see you again- Angelica Schuyler." He smiled , running to his friends to tell him about her. She smiled. Father would like him- and I'm sure Eliza could find someone rich. Peggy still danced with Marquis. Angelica returned to the middle sister , swooning. She was going to tell her all about him. "I'm in lov-" Angelica blurted out. Elizabeth didn't hear, her face lighten up. "This ones mine!" She smiled , pointing directly at the short man, handsome as ever. Alexander. No - this couldn't be happening! "No- you don't want him! Your sure!" Angelica mumbled. "Do me a favour? Introduce us?" She smiled . Angelica took a deep breath. Pain isn't forever- heartbreak is. "We meet again , Angelica Schuyler." He smiled , cupping her cheek with his hand. "It's just Angelica!" She laughed , forgetting her task, yet wrapping her arm around his. "Where are you taking me?" He winked back at his friends, giving them a thumb up , with the opposite arm. "I'm about to change your life."
She winked , hoping her heart wouldn't shatter onto the floor. "Then by all means , lead the way." Angelica hoped to take him away, "Elizabeth Schuyler , its a pleasure to meet you." She curtsied. He didn't let go of Angelica's arm, but he bowed. She had seen every other man give a kiss on the hand , where was hers? "Thank you for all your services." She inched closed , hoping he would fall for her. "If it takes fighting a war for me to meet this family , It will have been worth it." Eliza hoped he referenced her , but his arm still chained to Angelica's. "Would you like to dance?" She said , looking as beautiful as she could. "It would be a pleasure," Eliza lit up, and Angelica sighed. "But I've fallen for this woman." He pulled Angelica back to the dance floor. Soon enough, Angelica might have had too much to drink. She laughed , and took Alexander by the hand , leading him away. She might regret doing this (it) but she had no common sense now. Elizabeth watched them run off. Peggy raised an eyebrow. "I'm fine." She was lying. She fantasized , of Alexander.
