My Love ( Lafayette x Reader) On Hiatus

Chapter Four

To my dearest daughter,

I miss you dearly and await your arrival. Though at first you know I didn't above at all and still fully do not like this. You know I believe in you and your ability to fight. I do wish to have someone watch over you and keep you close by just in case I have not idea what the British might try. Also as a way to ease your mother's heart. I will write to you soon if I am able but if not I will see you in a few days. A small note is that I have arranged for you to have a small tent close to my own.

With love

                       Your father.

-Y/N-

It has been a while since you received a letter from your father so when one came you were quite happy, yet it was just a bit more formal then you would have wished but this was your father's style. You set the letter down on a small table and step out of the back room and into the main area of Herc's shop. He had asked you to watch the shop well he and Laffayete went out, what they were doing you had no idea.

Walking around the shop you take in everything,*I wonder what he is going to do when he goes off to war. I wonder what will happen to everyone in this war.* You had spent some more time with everyone and had become worried about all of them.

The door to the shop opened and broke your train of thought, glancing up you see three women coming in.

Fixing your dress a bit you then greet them

"Hello, is there something you are in need of?"

"Hello my name is Angelica Schuyler, these are my sisters Elizabeth and Margarita Schuyler and were looking for Hercules Mulligan I believe that is his name, we need to pick up some dresses. " Angelica gestures to the girls behind her and one of the rolled there eyes.

The one who rolled her eye pushes Angelica out of the way a bit and held her hand out to you "you can just call me Peggy, Margarita is too formal and of course you can just call her Eliza," she said as she pointed to the last girl who hadn't said anything. "

Eliza or Elizabeth gave you a smile and a small wave when hearing her name.

You took Peggy's hand and shook it.

"I'm Y/N, um Hercules isn't here at the moment, but let me see if the dresses are in the back at all." You quickly head to the back and look around for any dress.

Walking into the back you realize a few things you have no idea what the dresses might look like though maybe wrote there names on a piece of paper and put them close by. Glancing around you see three dresses laid about on a table you made an educated guess as to who these dresses belonged to and walked over to pick them up. They really were beautiful dresses and as you picked them up a piece of paper feel down. You set the dresses back down and picked up the piece of paper

Y/N

There may or may not be three ladies who stop by to pick up some dresses I tailored for them. These are the dresses. Just put them in a box and have them pay. Put the money upstairs or in the matchbox that is near the sewing machine. - Herc 

*Why didn't I see this earlier, I guess I was more distracted than I thought I was*

Placing the note down on the table you carefully pick up the dresses and bring them out to the sisters for them to see.

"I believe these are the dresses. I hope they are what you need." You handed them to each of the girls.

Taking the dresses they inspect them and smile.

"These are perfect," Eliza said as the other two nodded.

"Would you like for me to wrap them up so they are easy to take home"

"That would be great"

Walking back to the back room you grab some boxes and come back. They hand you the dresses one at a time, first Angelica's then Eliza's then Peggys you carefully fold each one into a box tie a small ribbon on it and hand it to each respective sister. After you finished, Angelica hands you the money that is due.

"Thank you and thank Mr. Mulligan as well," Angelica says as she begins to head towards the door.

"I also want to give you my thanks perhaps we can see each other again," Eliza says giving you a smile and a hug as she takes her box and heads to where her sister is waiting for her.

"Are you married to Mr. Mulligan," Peggy askes as she takes her box.

You feel your face heats up and quickly replay" oh no, I'm not I am just staying" with him and helping out.

"Peggy! You can't just as that out of the blue" Anglica says as Eliza just shakes her head and sighs

"Peggy Anglica is right, look how you almost sacred her."

"No, no it's really okay. It's a reasonable question to ask.

"See guys, though perhaps I should have just asked it out of the blue my apologies" Peggy gives you a small hug then bonds over to where her sisters are.

Have a good day Y/N, it would be nice to see you again, Anglica says as she opens the door and heads out.

"Yes, it would be, have a good day," Eliza says and waves goodbye.

"Bye, hope to see you again. Sorry for the question." Peggy waves goodbye and hurries to join her sisters.

"Bye have a good day" You watch them walk away. *it must be interesting to have siblings, they were all so different yet also similar in away. You walk back towards the back room and place the money in the matchbox and then sit down on a stool in front of the table. Other then the Schuyler sisters no one else has come in. You then here slam open

"Y/N where are you?"

"I am in the back, John"

John comes running into the back, he takes a minute to catch his breath.

"Come on, Hercules wanted me to come here and get you. He is worried you might bet bored out of your mind and cause trouble."

"John, if I may say you guys would be the one to cause trouble if broad not me. "

"Okay perhaps that is true about some people but do you want to hang with us."

"Sure let's go. If I may ask where are we going. " you get up and straighten your dress.

Jon grabs your arm and pulls you out of the backroom and towards the door.

"I have no idea we have to find everyone. "

"John, you don't know where everyone is.? " you follow him, well more so let him drag you out the door and out into the street only stopping once for you to look the door to the shop.

"No, sorry but it differently should not be hard to find everyone."
