Finite(I might change this title who knows)

Chapter 6

(A/N: I did a bad job explaining the setting, it's Alex was taken in by the Washington's on November 30th, it's now December)
George's POV
I stared horrified at the scene in front of me. The Angel of Death claimed another victim. Some poor bloke named William Cornwallis. Decapitated, spinal cord was removed, tongue cut out, a cross burned into his chest. The gory scene while horrible, wasn't what frightened me though... the blood writing instead of pertaining to the victim was directed at me and my family.
It said: 'My dearest agent Washington, you don't appear to be a bad person, hence why you aren't dead yet. But I'm afraid I can't let you cut my cleansing process short. So Mr. Washington, let's make a deal, you stop tracking me and I'll let you and your family go unharmed.'
I always knew the dangers of my job. Though the threat has never been this real before.

Alex's POV
I sat on my bed staring at my phone. Should I text John? I mean he was flirting with me all day... wait was that flirting??? I think it was. Would it be weird if I texted him first? I mean it's been a few weeks since we first first met. Seven weeks? I think? Is that enough time to justify trying to get into a relationship? You know what just text him! What's the worst that could happen!

Me: Hey John!
Read

....
....
Why isn't he answering??? Is he really leaving me on read???? Oh my god this is the worst thing that could possibly happen!!! Is he mad at me? I don't think I did anything to make him angry? But what if I did. Oh my god he probably hates me!

TurtleBoy❤️😍: Oh hey Alex! I was a little busy sorry I left you on read 😅

Me: it's fine! So what are you up to?

TurtleBoy❤️😍: oh nothing, just a little something for Christmas for a certain boy I know ;)

Me: oh really? Now who is this certain boy ;)

TurtleBoy❤️😍: You'll find out eventually Lexi ;)

Me: pft. Hey John I was just wondering if you aren't busy tonight we could maybe just hang out

TurtleBoy❤️😍: oh? Is THE Alexander Hamilton asking me out on a date?

P A N I C. HOW DO I RESPOND TO THAT???

TurtleBoy❤️😍: because if you are, I'd love to. You're pretty damn cute sweetheart

O H M Y G O D

Me: well the I guess it's a date then :)

TurtleBoy❤️😍: I'll pick you up at seven, just send me your address :)

Me: It's the only house on Mt.Vernon road

TurtleBoy❤️😍: I'll see you at seven angel ;)

I began giggling excitedly. I skipped down the stairs and ran to Martha.
"Hey Martha, I'm going out my friend will be here to pick me up at seven!" I bounced on my toes happily.
"Oh? Who's this 'friend' of yours?" Martha smirked, I blushed heavily.
"His name is John."
"Ooh~ well have fun darling."
"I'm sure I will." I smiled lightly.

I waited impatiently until seven, and at seven, on the dot we got a knock at the door. I rushed over and opened it. There he is. John Laurens, here to take me on a date. Oh god I think I'm going to faint!
"H-hey John!" I smiled up at him.
"Hey Lexi! Miss Washington, it's a pleasure to meet you." John kissed Martha's hand.
"Oh, what a gentleman!" Martha gushed happily.
"You ready to go Lexi?"
"Y-yeah, let's go!" John hooked our arms and escorted me to his car. Holy f*ck he has a car???? How perfect can he get!

Washington's POV
I opened the door to my home to find Martha sitting on our couch reading a book. Alexander was giggling happily on his phone.
"Is Alexander alright?" I asked Martha quietly.
"Oh Alexander? He's better than alright dear! He just got back from his first date!"
"Date?! With who?!"
"This polite young man named John Laurens."
"Laurens?"
"A very polite young man." Martha narrows her eyes at me.
"I'm sure he is Martha." I smiled at her, kissing her temple. I love my family, and I'd do anything for them. Even quitting my job. I might just do it for them.
