I finish writing the letter, pleading for Washington to let me live with him. I run downstairs just in time to get to the mailman.
I hand the letter to him. "Make sure General Washington gets this as soon as possible. Please make sure no guards see this letter, thank you." I tell him. I then run back to my room. Most of the guards won't say anything, but its people like Charles who will tell because they love the rules.
I know it'll probably take a month, but as long as it gets to him, I'll be happy. I need to get away from father, Charles, and especially Alex. All I have to do is wait.
- a month later (Bc Kenny is lazy af)-
I'm sitting in my room, I've been doing nothing but this for the past month. I got grounded.. you can probably guess why. They act like I'm a child, I'm an adult, let me be one.
There's a knock on the door. DeDe walks in and hands me two letters. "I didn't tell anyone I had them, considering who they're from."
"Thank you," I say, taking the letter. She walks out and closes the door behind her. I tear open and read the letter from Washington first, not bothering to look at the other.
'Dear [Y/N],
If this is what you really want, I will send a carriage to take you to Mount Vernon with my wife, Martha, I sent her a letter telling her you might be arriving. The carriage should be there the night you get this letter if I timed it right. I told the driver to stop a little away to not raise suspicion. Be careful, I would hate if you got caught. I hope to see you after the war.
Sincerely,
George Washington.'He's already better than father, he doesn't sigh his letters as 'Daddy George.'
It's already pretty late, so I pack a bag with parchment and a quill, though I don't doubt Washington will have them, I want them just in case. I also pack one dress, not a poofy or big one, a small one that's easy to fold up. I can get new ones when I get there. When I'm done, I look at the other... Alex..? I immediately drop everything and rip it open, before I can realize what I'm doing, I'm sitting on my bed, desperately reading it.
'My dearest, [Y/N],
I miss you a lot. There is not a day that goes by where I'm not thinking of you. I saw you sent a letter to Washington. How come you sent one to him but not to me? I'm sorry, I didn't mean to sound selfish. It's just that I haven't seen you in a while and I just really want to hear from you. Eliza sent me a letter recently, what was that about? She talked about you letting her have me? Do you not love me anymore? I'm sorry if I did something wrong. Anyways, I'm sorry if you didn't want to hear from me, but please write me back.
Yours forever,
Alexander'I find myself wiping tears from my eyes. I'm sorry Alex. I do still love you...
I get up and quickly write goodbye notes. Charles, DeDe, Carly, Alex, and a not so nice one for my father. I look outside, I should get going. I don't want the carriage to leave without me.
I put the letters on my desk and blow out my candle. It's time to go. I didn't think I would be so willing to run away, but at this point they'll be better off with me gone. I've done more bad than good recently. I pick up my bag and open the door. No ones there. I start walking down the stairs and I get right to the door when someone says.
"Where are you going?" I turn around and Charles is sitting on the couch. I feel tears pricking at my eyes. I apologized for everything in the letter... but I feel I need to do it now as well.
"I'm sorry Charles, I'm sorry for everything. You were always like a father to me, I'm sorry that I caused so much pain to you and got you so mad. I'll miss you... I love you just like you were my father... goodbye," I say, tears streaming down my face.
"What do you mean?" He asks just as I close the door. I make a run towards the carriage in the distance. "[Y/N]!" I hear Charles yell, there's actual emotion in his voice. Confusion and sadness mixed together... I'm sorry Charles.. please don't come looking for me.
I quickly get into the carriage. As we start riding away I see Charles running after me, I think I see tears...
Charles... I'm sorry...
The last thing I hear before I'm off our property is Charles screaming after me. "[Y/N]!!! PLEASE!! AT LEAST WRITE ME!"
Tears fall down my face as I look back and see Charles fall to the ground and cover his face....
I....
I'm so sorry Charles.... I didn't know you cared that much... I'll miss you the most...
