"Alright, everyone in?" John asked, mixing the folded pieces of paper around in a hat.
Everyone nodded and you each took turns pulling names from the hat. The one you pulled read 'Angelica' in fancy handwriting.
You smiled as you stashed it in your pocket.
"Everyone good?" John asked, looking around at the faces of his friends.
You all hummed in agreement, looking around at the others to confirm.
"Does that mean we can order a pizza now?" Peggy groaned.
"Please!" You agreed, your stomach groaning at the thought.
"Knock yourself out," John shrugged.
"I'll start a movie," Laf offered, standing up and walking to the living room from John's kitchen.
Peggy wandered out of the room, her phone pressed to her ear.
"She's going to order the whole store," Angelica muttered, standing and pulling Eliza with her.
John and Hercules shared a quick moment of eye contact before Hercules declared, "We're going to help Laf with that movie."
They stood and rushed to the living room, leaving only you and Alex.
"You feeling confident with your person?" You asked, making conversation with your close friend.
He smiled widely, a slight blush dusting his cheeks. "Yeah, I am," he said with confidence.
"I'll look forward to it, then," you laughed.
Your conversation was interrupted by loud bickering from the living room. You glanced out the door frame to see Hercules and John fighting for the remote. Laf looked around frantically before meeting your eyes.
"Mon ami! Help!" He begged.
You laughed as you and Alex rushed to dissolve the argument.

That Saturday, you visited the mall, hoping to find something for Angelica before Christmas on Monday. You searched through JCPenney, looking for the perfect gift. Browsing the jewelry section, your eyes landed on a set of gold earrings that read 'Feminist as fuck' in cursive writing. Seeing as they only cost a few dollars, you continued looking for a few other things. You ended up with the earrings, Feminist Fight Club by Jessica Bennett, and a mug that said "I've got 99 problems and white heteronormative patriarchy is basically all of them".
Feeling confident with your selection, you made your way over to your car, bags in hand. On your way there, you passed by Alex getting out of his car.
"Alex! What's up?" You called, startling the small man.
"Oh, hey, Y/n," he greeted you, "I was just going to go shopping for the secret santa thing. I ordered stuff for the group already," he shrugged.
"Good plan. I got my stuff a few weeks ago," you told him.
"Ooh, I'll look forward to it," he promised.
You laughed lightly, excitement for Monday building up. "This was fun, but I think I'm gonna head home. It's freezing out here."
"Yeah, I'm with you there," he agreed with a chuckle.
"I'll see you Monday, then," you smiled.
"Yep!"
Smiling, you hurried back to your car, eager to escape the biting wind.

"Merry Christmas!" John, the Schuyler sisters and Lafayette greeted you as you walked through the door.
You hugged him tightly, a large smile on your face. "Merry Christmas to you, too."
You took off you coat, hat and gloves as you entered the house. Seeing you stomp the snow off of your boots, Peggy gasped in excitement.
"It's snowing?!" She yelled, childishly.
She raced to the window and shoved the curtain to the side, staring in awe at the falling snow. You laughed at her behavior as you sat down on the floor next to Eliza.
Hercules and Alex only took a few more minutes to join you. Once everyone had arrived, you divulged in some food Hercules had brought and began exchanging gifts.
Hercules got a lot of fabrics and needles and such for fashion designing to help him get through his last year at college for fashion design.
Alex got piles upon piles of notebooks and pens, something he could always use more of.
You had all pitched in to give John a turtle with everything he'd need for it.
Lafayette received the most American things you could find, feeding his obsession with the country.
Angelica got a large collection of various books.
Peggy and Eliza were among the more difficult to shops for, so they received mostly gift cards.
You also ended up with a big pile of your favorite things.
"So, everyone should just have their secret Santa present left, right?" John asked, looking around at the single presents that sat in front of everyone.
John smiled after seeing everyone nod. It was your first Christmas at his house, and he was excited to see things go so well.
"I'll go first!" Angelica said quickly.
"That's fine. We can go around in a circle after that. To Y/n, then Laf and so on," Eliza offered.
Angelica opened her gift and laughed with delight, excited by everything you had gotten.
"That's incredible! Thank you, Y/n!" She said.
You laughed at her reaction, "I'm glad you like it."
Next it was your turn to open your gift. You knew it was from Alexander, so you were excited to see what he had gotten you.
After unwrapping it, you revealed a basket with six of your favorite books lining the side and a bouquet of your favorite flowers in the center.
"Aw, that's so pretty. Thanks, Alex," you smiled.
As Lafayette opened his gift, you looked at the books a little more closely. You now saw that there were bookmarks sticking out a different places in each book.
You grabbed the first book and opened it to where the page was marked. Scanning the page, you saw that one word was underlined: 'Will'.
Confused, you flipped through the rest of the books, slowly figuring out the sentence.
'you'
'go'
'out'
'with'
'me?'
Shocked, your eyes quickly met Alex's. He blushed and looked down at his lap.
"Yes," you blurted out.
"What?" Questioned the others, confused by your sudden outburst.
You lunged across the small circle into Alex's lap. You wrapped your arms around his neck, holding him as tight as you could manage.
"It'll always be yes, Alex."
