In the morning, I wake up to something warm holding me in place. Ah.
Right.

My face heated up and I laid in bed for a while hoping for John to wake up, because I didn't want to be the one to wake him up.

Then finally, I felt the warmth that held me move. I heard a little gasp behind me, as if John had realized what happened last night.

He got up, "uh.. (y/n)?" He sounded ashamed or shy. I was debating wether to reply or not, but he's was going to figure out I was awake.

"Yeah?"

"Last night- did we-" he started, his breath directly onto my neck.

"N-no!" I blushed harder and I turned around to face him.

He was also blushing, and he moved his hands away. Suddenly, I was cold. "N-" I started

"yes (y/n)?"

"N-never mind.."

We stayed like that for a while. Then we heard someone barge into the room.

"Hey (Y/N), did you happen to see my- oH mY gOd" Herc gasped and froze at the doorway. I got up immediately, my (h/c) hair tangled in a mess.

"It's not what it looks like!" I said as convincingly as I could. He didn't buy it.

"John- you made a promise that you wouldn't touch my sister!" Hercules was panicking. John got up and said "no! Nothing happened last night- right?"

He turned to look at me. "Nothing- nothing happened alright? It was just a huge misunderstanding"

Hercules looked skeptical, but he just sighed. "Breakfast is ready"

~Time skip brought to you by Hercules getting triggered over tea~

"Alex! About time you got home- where were you?" John asked wiping his mouth with a napkin.

Alex merely replied with a grunt and ran to his room.

"What's up with him?" I asked. Lafayette shrugged.
Hercules glared at John.

I got up from my seat and walked to the bathroom. I closed the door behind me and decided I should shower.

I ran to my room to grab my clothes and ran to the bathroom. I was about to undress when I heard from outside of the door, Alex talking to someone on the phone angrily.

"Look- What happened last night was a mistake, It was never supposed to happen"

Silence.

"What do you mean you were drunk? You were fully aware that I had a girlfriend and let me just say you were not drunk at all."

I inhaled a sharp breath. Did Alex cheat on Eliza?
But with who?

"No one needs to know alright? Down tell your asshole of a boyfriend because if you do I will never forgive you. Understand?"

I heard a loud sob erupt from the phone. "Shit- speaker-"

The sobs switched off. Alex sighed and I think he was crying. "Look- I'm sorry- I didn't mean it alright- Just don't tell your boyfriend. Please."

Everything just came into perspective. Last night- he didn't show up- I think John mentioned something about a past relationship with Alex and-

Oh my god.

I opened the door and looked at Alex in disbelief. This sick man had the audacity to cheat on someone as kind as Eliza?

"You- you cheated on Eliza?" I felt the anger rushing to my head.

"N-no! How much did you hear? Whatever you heard is not your business" He ended the call and shoved his phone in his pocket.

He tried to storm off, by j grabbed his shoulder. "It IS my business- you can't cheat on a girl like that!"

He jerked his arm away. "Don't tell Eliza what you heard" His eyes were red because he was crying, but now his face was in anger.

"Why shouldn't I?" I challenged.

"If you tell her- she'll kill herself." He sneered. "If you care about her so much, you won't tell her."

I was about to scoff and retort, but i had nothing. It was true though, I didn't want to hurt Eliza, but i didn't want to keep her from knowing.

And then it hit me,
The perfect plan.

"I won't tell Eliza"

He sighed in relief

"But!- you have to get John Laurens to like me back."

There was a brief  moment of confusion in his eyes, but she just chuckled slightly and looked at me dead in the eye.

"Deal"
