The Schuyler Sisters Take 2

Chapter 13 (Take me or Leave me)

John and Tatiana were having a great time on their honeymoon. They played games, had lovely nights, talked, and did whatever they could do in the cabin they were staying at.

"Tatiana, come out, come out wherever you are I'll find you, you can't hide from forever,"John said walking around the cabin slowly. Tatiana hid in the cupboard and put her hand over her mouth. John walked into the kitchen.

"Oh Tatiana," He sang out. He began opening things around the kitchen. Tatiana giggled causing John to turn his head. He smirked and walked to the cupboard and opened it.

"I won!," John did a victory dance as Tatiana got out.

"Yeah, yeah whatever," Tatiana cracked her back.

"You're turn," John said as he ran away from her.

"1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, Here I come," Tatiana began to search around.

"Oh Johnny," Tatiana looked around. John ran outside of the cabin to the porch and hid in a corner.

"John?," Tatiana looked around the cabin seeing no sign of him. John chuckled, knowing his wife wouldn't be able to find him.

"That boy went outside," Tatiana mumbled and fast walked to the front door. John heard the doorknob twist.

"Crap," John sighed. Tatiana came into his view.

"Ha, found you," Tatiana jumped up in victory.

"Let's play a new game," John insisted as he and Tatiana went inside and locked the door.

"What game is it," Tatiana asked.

"Who can get to the bedroom and strip down first," John wiggled his eyebrows.

"That sounds like a challenge to me," Tatiana smirked and ran to the bedroom.

"Hey that's cheating," John chased after her.

Alex had finished working on his great plan; he had stacked the letters he wrote to Washington by the fireplace. He sat down Kylie's favorite meal on the table and poured some wine out. He got the flowers ready and waited for her to return. Eventually, he heard the door open to see the girl he has been waiting for. He got up and went to her.

"Kylie, I know you're mad at me, but hear me out," Alex said to her.

"If it's something that'll make me slap you don't say it because I will slap the life out of your body," Kylie spoke firmly.

"Okay, I'm sorry for everything, you deserve so much better than me, I'm a man who constantly needs to work, and I know I haven't had much time for you lately, but soon it's about to change, Washington has asked me to come back, we have one final battle left. But that's only to inform you, Kylie, you are very important to me and even though you don't see it or I don't show it, I promise I love you, with all my heart, please forgive me," Alex took her hands in his. Kylie looked down and felt the warm tears forming.

"Alex, I shouldn't have gotten mad I mean I was because I felt like your work was more important than me, and I know it is, this country is much more bigger than me and I'm only a single person compared to the world, I'm Sorry about earlier too, just please talk to me about this," Kylie said looking up at him, Alex was silent.

"Alex?," Kylie looked concerned. Alex kissed her and pulled her closer to him and hugged her waist. They pulled away.

"You either take me or leave me," Kylie whispered to him.

"I'll never leave you," Alex smiled and took her to the fireplace.

"Let's burn some letters,"Alex handed Kylie half the stack of 1000 pages.
