Should've Been Mine (Laurens x Angelica) {COMPLETE}

I Love Him

(Angelica's POV)

Why was I toying with him? Didn't I just kiss Church? Why did I need to kiss Laurens?

Why was Laurens' kiss more satisfiying? And why did I need to kiss him again?

As i sobbed into Peggy's shoulder, I slowly began to realize something with my face jammed into the yellow shoulder of her dress.

There could only be one possible reason why my thoughts kept coming back to this silly soldier boy, this wonderful abolionist, this handsome man with a cute chuckle. 

There could only be one reason why I ran into his arms and wanted to do it again and again and again.

I knew the reason why I would be okay with being Angelica Schuyler-Laurens.

Heck, I loved him. I had fallen for John Laurens.

I started laughing hysterically into Peggy's shoulder. 

"What is it, Ange?"

"Peggy," I smiled at my sister, but knew this time, it was okay to look to Laurens. "I love him."

I said this right as Father walked in. "Daughter, I have decided marrying Laurens would be a wonderful political descion." Father sighed. "And anyway, you scared Church away."

I ran right into John's arms again. "Is that okay? Even though I kissed Church?"

Laurens grinned. "Darling, I'm too forgiving to say no."
