Alex POV
We sat at the table for breakfast, bacon and eggs. "This is so yummy!" Bella squeals happily, how can someone be so enthusiastic about the smallest things? I guess it's because she's still so innocent.

"I'm glad you like it dear." Martha says sitting down to eat, Washington is reading this mornings newspaper. My phone buzzes and I look at it, it's a message from the Schuylers.

tomcat: Yeah that would be fun, I'll ask Washington

"Hey, Mr Washington?" I ask, "George." he says, "Right! George, is it okay if I hang with the Schuylers today? It's my first Christmas without them and they wanna do something fun." I say, he puts down his paper, "Sure why not?"

"Really?" I ask, "Yeah, we're gonna go get some stuff for Bella's room so you can go with the sisters for the day." he says, "Thanks!" I pull out my phone again.

tomcat: He said yes, what time should we meet?

sAtIsFiEd: We can come pick you up at 10?

tomcat: Wait, I wanna see your dad, I should meet you at your place

thehelpessone: We can go there too.

anDPEGGY: Yeah and you don't have a car or a license yet so it'll be easier to pick you up anyways

tomcat: Okay fine, I'll see you guys at 10

anDPEEGY: See ya!

It's 8:42 right now so I should go get ready. I finish my food and head up to my bedroom, I take a shower and get dressed into a long sleeve shirt and jeans with a sweat shirt because it's freezing. It is snowing outside.

Its now 9:53, perfect timing, I grab my coat and gloves along with my cellphone and head downstairs. There's a knock at the door the moment I reach the bottom of the staircase, perfect timing.

I open the door and Peggy jumps on top of me, "Alexander!" she screamers happily giving me a hug, "Hey Peggy, we haven't seen each other in ages! When was it last? Yesterday?" I ask in a sarcastic tone, she gives me the stink eye and gets off me. Angie helps me up.

"Hey Alexander!" she says pulling me into a hug which Eliza squeezes into somehow. "Where is she?" Eliza asks eyes lit up, "She's in the second living room." I say and lead them to it.

Bella is sitting on the couch with Martha, she looks up when I enter the room and stares at the girls as they walk in, "Hi Mrs Washington!" Eliza says and Martha smiles at her, "Hello dear, how are you?" she asks, "Oh I'm great! And you?" "Perfect."

Washington walks in from the dining room, "Hello girls, how have you been?" he asks when he sees the sisters, "We're all good and you?" Angie asks, "Things here are fine." he replies sitting down on the couch.
