A/N~~ Hey guys thanks for continuing to read this story. It means a lot. Thanks y'all<3
Btw the picture has nothing to do with this chapter I just thought it was cute. Kk you can read this chapter nowEliza's POV~
I was thrilled for my party tonight! I invited the guy of my dreams, after all. I really believe Alex loves me! I think John could tell I was overjoyed when he came to set up early."Why are you smiling so much?" he asked cheerily while setting out the chip bags on the counter. "You throw parties like every week." It's true. I'm the ultimate party thrower at school. Some will argue Laf is better at throwing parties, but who's the one with a frozen yogurt machine? That's right. The best party thrower crown goes to me.
"Well this time I'll have someone special here..." I said mysteriously. John clumsily dropped the bag of potato chips. He should really work on his coordination.
"Um... you mean Alex?" he managed to choke out. Oh no. Maybe Alex already has a girlfriend!
"Why, is he taken?" I asked casually. "Oh I can't imagine he would be, he just got here. Unless he has a long distance relationship! Or worse! He might be gay! John, you've talked to him more than I have, do you think he's gay? I dont think he could be. No, never mind, he's not. Alex could never be gay. Ever." John looked extremely pale, like he was going to pass out.
"John, are you okay? CAN. YOU. HEAR. ME?"
"Yeah, yeah I'm fine. What were you saying about Alex?" he asked, still dazed. I still held onto him to be sure he would not topple over.
"Oh, it's not important, Alex could never be gay." I had gone back to hanging things up and setting out snacks. "Right John?"
Silence.
"John?!"
Angelica's POV~~~
Thud. A body hit the floor.I raced down the stairs to see Eliza hunched over Laurens, who seemed to be very pale and very unconscious. Typical.
"What happened?" I asked, annoyed. I sleepily inspected John to find he was still breathing. Eliza explained the whole thing about John passing out.
"Maybe a panic attack." I shrugged. I didn't really care about the cause of it. All I knew was I had to wake him up before the party.
"Hey, wake up John." I demanded. No response. I smacked his face. He woke immediately.
"Ow, what the heck Angie?"
"I had to do it." I sipped my coffee and went back upstairs. Hopefully nothing like that will happen again tonight.
Laurens POV
After passing out, I got back to setting up games and food with the Eliza. I was dizzy but overall fine. We finished pretty fast, and soon everyone would be here.
I still don't know why I passed out. It's all blurry. Eliza was talking about Alex and him being gay or not, and everything went black. My breathing got really heavy and fast. And then I just fell over.The doorbell suddenly rang.
"I'll get it!" Peggy yelled while dashing down the stairs. It was Hamilton with Hercules and Lafayette. Eliza welcomed them and we all sat in the living room.
"Glad you came, Alex!" Eliza said gleefully. Alex nodded and said it was no big deal. Eliza looked slightly worried and disappointed. Ugh, I should probably help her out. She really likes him.
"Y'know Alex, Eliza is the best person I know at ping pong." I said reluctantly.
"Ha. I doubt it." Alex replied.
"Wanna bet?" Eliza challenged. The next thing I knew they were playing ping pong. Alex was losing pathetically. Everyone knows Eliza is perfect at ping pong. She's perfect at everything. It was painful having one of my best friends so much better at everything than me.
It was killing me when he talked to her. I saw the way he looked at her. It made me feel frustrated that I could never be in her place. After all, he's obviously straight.
Wait. No, remember John, you promised your father you don't like guys.
Oh right, thanks me for reminding me.
My thoughts were interrupted by a knock at the door.
"The party has arrived!" Jefferson yelled. Madison was behind him, of course.
"Hey, Thomas the Train! You got it?" Angelica asked. Thomas pulled out a fricking huge pot full of Mac and cheese.
"You know it!" Everyone except Angie was revolted by the ghastly overpowering smell of the Mac and cheese.
"Alright guys! Let's play truth or dare!" Eliza announced. We all gathered in the living room, sitting in a makeshift circle.
"I'll go first." Peggy said. "Laf, truth or dare?"
"Dare, obviously."
"Hmm... I dare you to kiss the hottest person in the room." Lafayette went red. The room went quiet. I wondered if I would get a dare like that.
"Alright, I'll do it." he started leaning toward the girls direction, but he swiveled. His lips met the lips of Hercules Mulligan. Mulligan's face was crimson red. He hid his face in his hands, still shocked from the kiss. Everyone was fangirling from the adorable-ness.
"Anyway," Laf said casually. "John, truth or dare."
"I don't know, dare?" I said. He grinned maniacally, like he just remembered a twisted joke.
"I dare you to sing I Want It That Way with Alex!" My face was as red as a tomato. Alex was up for the challenge.
"Let's do this!" Alex roared. I nodded and gulped. Here goes nothing...
A/N: Sorry I keep disappearing! I'll try to update at least once a week and I'll update on Tuesdays!
Love you guys!!
