Hamilton
John and I have been "dating" for about a week now. Eliza still doesn't know which is amazing.
"Where are you going?"
"Washington called me back to work."
She groans and gives me a sad look. "But that's third time this week. Baby please," she says and grabs my hand. "Can't you ask for a couple days off?"
I pull her close to me and kiss her forehead. "I love you so much. You know that right?"
She pulls away and crosses her arms. "Whatever."
"It's not my fault Liz."
She turns away from me. "Just go."
I kiss her cheek. "I love you. I'll see you later tonight." I walk out the door and take out my phone.
HammyHam: Omw❤️
🏳️🌈🐢: is Eliza alright?
HammyHam: ig why?
🏳️🌈🐢: it's just not fair for her. Do you even love her
HammyHam: ofc I do. I love both you equally
🏳️🌈🐢: 🙄 I'll see you in a little bit love you
Yep he's pissed at me.
After about a ten minute drive, I get to Johns apartment. I knock on the door and he opens it. He pulls me into a hug and we walk inside.
"So what are our plans?"
"How does staying here and watching a movie sound?"
"Sounds great. What movie?"
"The 5th wave?" He puts the movie on and we grab a blanket.
"Did Eliza know you came here?"
"Why would I tell her that?" I say and put my hand on his thigh.
He shrugs. "Good point."
We watch the movie for a little bit longer to the part where Cassie and Evan meet for the first time. "Damnnnnn," I hear John say as he bites his lip.
I look around confused. "What?"
"Alex Roe is so hot."
I make a fake pouty face. "But I'm the only Alex you should call hot."
He looks me up and down. "Yeah, well he's still hot."
I look away. "Well fuck you too then."
"No thanks."
"Oh really now?"
"Yep," he says with a small nod.
I take the blanket off of me. "K then. I'll just leave."
His eyes go wide and he pulls me back down. "No! Please. Don't leave me, please."
Oh my god. He always makes me feel so helpless. "I'm kidding, kitten. I'm sorry." He snuggles against me.
"I'm sorry for overreacting. It was dumb."
"Don't apologize," I say and kiss him gently. "I love you."
He looks away from me. "I love you too.."
What's wrong?"
"N-nothing."
"Somethings wrong. You can tell me anything, you know."
"W-why did you leave everyone?"
I think about my options. I could tell him and lie, or I could tell him the truth. I really want to tell him and he deserves to know. "Jefferson."
"What?" he says, obviously confused.
I hold his hand tightly. "John, please don't be mad at me when I say this, but, in high school I had a drug dealer."
"YOU HAD A WHAT?!" Oh God. He's gonna kill me. "Why the fuck didn't you tell me?"
"L-let me explain."
He crosses his arms and gives me that look like when your mom is about to beat your ass for your report card. "Yes, please do."
I take a deep breath. "James Reynolds was my drug dealer and every other week, he would sell me stuff. Jefferson knew and threatened to tell Washington unless I paid some people for him. He gave me until the end of the school year but I couldn't pay them, so the only option I had was to leave."
"You should've told me."
"I'm sorry."
He sighs. "Just leave."
"John please..."
"I'll call you later. Goodnight Alexander."
I walk to the door and go to my car. I get in the car and start it. Fuck he's gonna hate me.
Future Wifey💙💍: when are you coming home? It's already 11:30
HammyHam: I'm leave now. I'll be home in about 10 minutes
Future Wifey💙💍: great! I have something important to tell you
HammyHam: What is it
Future Wifey💙💍: you'll have to wait until you get home 😉
HammyHam: Alright fine see you in a little bit ❤️
I finally get home after a long ass drive. Eliza runs out of the house and pulls me out of the car. "Calm down Betsey," I say with a little laugh.
"Hurry! It's important!" She drags me inside and closes the door. "Okay. Wait." She pushes me down on the couch and sits next to me.
"Come on Eliza. The anticipation is killing me!"
"Alright sorry!" She holds my hand. "Are you sure you want me to tell you?"
"Why wouldn't I want you to tell him?"
"I... well... I'm pregnant."
