Michelle woke up next to Lafayette and tried to get up. His arms were wrapped around her. She couldn't escape. She had an idea she slipped through his arms falling off the bed. She got up and walked into the kitchen, Her and Laf got a place together. He had asked Michelle to court him during the summer of last year and it went a little something like this....

*June of 1781*

"Michelle, Lafayette is here for you," Her mom yelled out to her.

"Coming, coming,"Michelle ran down the stairs and came to the door.

"Hi, Michelle" Lafayette smiled.

"Hi, Laf"Michelle said.

"These are for you,"he handed her a bouquet of flowers.

"Oh thank you, they beautiful Laf" Michelle took the flowers from his hand and asked her mom to take care of it. She took Lafayette's hand and walked out. They walked to the beach when no one was around, Michelle sat in the sand and began to make sand castles for fun.

"Come on, join me French Fry," Michelle motioned him to join her. He bent down and began to help Michelle with her sand castles.

"Michelle, will you court me?," Laf asked nervously. Michelle stopped in the middle of making her sand castle. She looked over at Laf and turned her body towards him and took her hands into his.

"Laf, my handsome french fry, of course I will,"Michelle smiled and kissed Lafayette. Lafayette melted deep into the kiss and they pulled away.

"I'm so happy," Lafayette hugged her.

They began to happily play more with the sand castles for the rest of the day.

*Back to the present*

Michelle got out eggs, bacon, toast, and butter. She began to make breakfast. As Lafayette creeped up to her, wrapping his arms around her torso.

"Good morning mon amour,"Lafayette kissed Michelle's cheek.

"Good morning my love,"Michelle responded. 

"What are your plans for today," Lafayette sat down. 

"Well I'm going over to Tatiana and Lauren's house today," Michelle said.

"Why?," Lafayette asked while taking some tea and sipping on it.

"Well Tatiana wants to get started with planning things right away, and you dear" Michelle said with enthusiasm.

"Well, I have to go back for battle, Washington has a new plan, Me, Alex, Hercules, and John are all going back for a couple days, I told you this a couple days amour, I'm sorry," Lafayette said.  Michelle finished making breakfast and served it pretty well, she sat down quietly.

"Please be careful Laf, I don't want to lose you,"Michelle began to cry. Lafayette came to her side and hugged her tightly.

"You'll never lose me," Laf whispered in her ear.

"Pinky promise," Michelle sniffled with her pink finger up.

"Pinky promise," Lafayette wrapped his pinky around hers and kissed it and she kissed it back.  Lafayette had wiped her tears away and kissed both of her cheeks.

"I'll be back my dear, very soon, I'll count the days, hours, minutes, and seconds, until I'm back home," Lafayette said holding her tightly. 

They both finished breakfast, and got ready for the day. They said their goodbyes, and Lafayette walked Michelle to Tatiana's. Tatiana kissed John and let him go with Lafayette as Michelle came to her.

Alex knocked on Kylie's door, hoping she would answer after the incident. The door swung open revealing a tired girl.

"Alex," Kylie said clearly not fond of seeing him right now.

"Can we talk, please Kylie," Alex looked down. Kylie sighed and let him in the house.

"Don't you have to prepare for battle?,"Kylie sat  down crossing her arms and sitting dow.

"I do, but I didn't want to go out there knowing we were on bad terms," Alex said looking down messed with the fabric of his coat.

"I'm listening,"Kylie said.

"Kylie, that night when we started arguing it was stupid of me to say all those painful things to you, it just upset me seeing the girl I like disagreeing with me and I didn't mean those hurtful words towards you, I'm sorry and I hope you forgive me Kylie, and I understand if you want nothing to do with me after what happened,"Alex said looking down. Kylie got up and pulled Alex to her bedroom and shut the door. She sighed and looked at him.

"Alex I-,"Kylie began to say.

"It's okay, I understand Kylie, I know you're still mad at me and I'll go, I'm just happy I got that off my ch-,"Alex was cut off by Kylie closing the space between them and kissed him deeply and passionately. Alex Pulled her closer, like that was possible, he held her close and sunk deeper into the kiss. It felt like fireworks had gone off in both of their hearts. Kylie let go and back away.

" Don't cut me off again,"Kylie said.

"I might have too, if that's what I get out of it,"Alex smirked causing Kylie to nudge him.

"Shut up Hamilton,"Kylie shook her head.

"Whatever you say Marie,"Alex kissed her hand.

Kylie hugged him tightly.

"Be careful out there Alex, I swear if you die I will resurrect your ass and kill you myself,"Kylie whispered causing Alex to chuckle.

"Will do, so what does this mean for us?,"Alex wiggles his eyebrows.

"What do you want it to mean?,"Kylie bit her lip.

"I want it to mean that we're courting,"Alex said.

"Then we are courting,"Kylie grinned.

Kylie walked Alex outside her home and saw the whole Bro gang waiting for Alex. He walked down the steps smiling like an idiot as he walked off with his buddies.

Lafayette smiled at Alex.

"You two finally talking again I see,"Lafayette winked.

"Oh shut up, don't act like you didn't get some Laf,"Alex responded. Lafayette smile dropped.

"He got you there,"John said.

"Yeah and think about it, he thought that he was never going to get with Michelle," Hercules added in.

They all laughed except Laf who was blushing like a maniac.

"What, I can't help it I love her with all my heart," Lafayette said in defense.
