Falling in Love (Alexander X Reader)

Chapter 36:

Alexander has already gone back to school and I have been bored. The worst part is that, it's only the first day! And I don't know if I'm pregnant or not! I guess I'll have to wait a month or so. I go outside because the fresh air reminds me of him. I know I might sound clingy but I love him. I go to the kitchen, where I found baking supplies so I baked a batch of muffins, a loaf of bread, and made dinner. I was so happy I wasn't a useless as two shits(author: I can't even). After I was still very bored. I sat outside again. Then I saw a figure of a man, and instantly knew that it was Alexander. I run towards him and when I get to him, we fall toward the ground. "Alexander! I've missed you", I smiled. "It's only been 8 hours!", he explained. "And do you know how boring that is?", I complained. He laughed at my comment. "Let's go inside, I'll tell you what I learned today", he replied, getting up from the grass. I got up as well and we walked to the house. He told me what he learned when we got inside and I felt so intrigued by it. "And that is when we call a witness", he explained. "That's so interesting!", I commented. "I bet you are bored hearing me talk about that", he replied. "No! I am interested and not because your my husband but because-", I stammered but got cut off by him kissing me.

The next day I wake up to see that Alexander was already gone. I felt so lonely without him in bed. I got up to see he was still here but he was downstairs. "Alexander, good morning", I greeted. "Good morning, Y/n", he smiled back. We both ate breakfast but he got up while I was still eating. "Sorry, I have to go", he kissed the top of my head, "today's very important day. There's a test", he explained. "Well, good luck. I'm going downtown and hopefully find something to do", I replied.

I went downtown wearing a (f/c) dress. I wandered the streets of Manhattan, feels like forever since I've done this. I remember the Schuyler sisters and I would always hang out here. It's not the same anymore, especially since Peggy- I don't want to say or think of it because she felt more than a friend, she felt like a sister. God, now I want to cry, but I can't. I have to stay strong, it would look pretty bad if I started to cry in public, especially since I'm alone for the day. People will start rumors and I know that the gossip in New York City is insidious. Alexander doesn't need dirt on his name. And I don't either. As I walk around, I see a flier for a job. Not just any job, singing. I would say I'm a pretty good singer. I used to sing when Thomas Jefferson visited our house or just in general. I read the poster to find the address but it seemed I wasn't the only girl looking at the poster. There was another girl next to me, she looked pretty high class and was shooting me dirty looks, "Oh, sorry didn't notice you were looking", she exclaimed very snobby like. I looked at her dress:

"Oh, my bad. I was just staring at you ugly ass dress. It makes your ass look more ratchet" (btw _12fangirl10_ thanks lmao can't get over the comeback is just so perfect), I pointed out. "You take that back", she demanded. "Sorry, once words come out of a person's mouth, it can't be taken back", I shrugged. "Come at me!", she started to roll up the sleeves. "Girl, let me save you by saying, I have fought during the war and I am very experienced when it comes to a fight", I warned. "You know what? Let's settle this like civilized women", she started to negotiate. "What are you saying?", I crossed my arms. "Let's go to the audition and whoever loses has to give the winner $30", she tried to remain calm. "You're on!", I shook hands with her. "May the best singer win", I tried to show good sportsPERSONship(cause it's 2018 over here and equality is needed). We both went to the audition and there were some boys and not a lot of competition. Some people were rehearsing and warming up. I just sat there, I didn't want to show off to my competition. I filled out an application and turned it in. I know I will win this bet. Let the games, begin.

OMG LOOK! THE AUTHOR DID A CLIFFHANGER! I would like to thank _12fangirl10_ for helping me with the comeback. If you haven't, you should go and read her story, speaking of which, *clears throat* GURL YOU GOTTA UPDATE! And thank you for supporting this story, 3K reads! I was actually thinking of just letting the main character live out a simple house wife life but then it hit me today (March 11, 2018) that she should have a job like I said she would in on me of the chapters, remember? Literally copied from chapter:
"They are so judgmental, 'women are fragile, their only job is to cook and take care of kids', well when I get back from the war, if I survive, I am getting a job to show those stupid men"
Literally just went to the chapter: Eliza's Winter Ball to prove my evidence. But I didn't know what job for her so I thought of what she could do. Then I thought of singing because...I say so, why should I explain it? I mean I'm the author.
