Peggy POV

I'm currently laughing my butt off as my best friend gets lifted over a giant wall. Lafayette had his arms underneath one of John's arms, and Alex had the other. As they lifted him up, one of them stumbled a bit and Alex and John's faces got reeaally close together. Now they both have red faces.

The garden is pretty nice. The walls are lined with trees and bushes, and several benches and chairs are scattered everywhere among the many kinds of flowers. It's really peaceful. Finally everyone was standing in the garden.

John was trying to climb a tree. Of course.

"John, what're you doing?" I asked.

"I brought my scetchbook, and I'm trying to get closer to this bird nest to see if there's anything in it I can draw." He called back, struggling to balance the scetchbook under his chin while pulling himself up the branches. He finally made it up and settled himself on a branch and started scetching. Everyone else either walked around or sat down on a bench. Alex sat down and started reading a book.

"Alex, where did that book come from?" Eliza asked. He looked up.

"I always have a book with me, just in case."

Instead of sitting on a bench, he had chosen to sit underneath a tree. It was the same tree John was currently in. Whether or not he specifically chose to sit there because if John, I'll never know.

John finished his sketch and slowly climbed down from the tree, careful not to hit Alex before sitting down next to him. He pulled out some more pencils and paints from his bag and continued with what he was doing while Alex kept reading.

I walked over to the flowers and started making flower crowns.

3rd POV

While Peggy worked on her flower crowns, everyone else sat down and relaxed. It had been a hectic week for everyone, so it was nice to just relax. No one knew how long they had been there until John looked up to notice that Alex had fallen asleep, his head leaning on John's shoulder and his book laying against his chest.

John set his things down and started moving Alex.

"Hold on, let him sleep. He really hasn't had that much time to." Lafayette said.

"Don't worry. I'm just adjusting him." John said while he shifted and slowly lowered Alex to where his head was laying in his lap.  Moving his hair out of his face so it wouldn't move and wake him up, John noticed how soft Alex's hair was. He found himself softly running his finger through it as he leaned back against the tree, closing his eyes.

Everyone watched before Eliza whispered, "Can anyone draw? Quickly?"

Hercules quickly got up and grabbed John's scetchbook and pencils. He backed up, unknowingly sitting next to Lafayette. He blushed slightly before turning his attention to the now sleeping boys. Peggy carefully put two flower crowns on their heads and Hercules started scetching.

Hello people. Sorry this update took forever to do. I was working on a short story, which you can read if you want. It's in my other account, Claire_Bear6
