Y/n's pov: After i visited Eliza i went back home, i stayed in the house for a week literally not doing anything but writing, doing my hair and sleeping. It made my father mad so he kicked me out of the house with a basket and made me go grocery shopping...so i made my way to the market.

I walked through the market and looked at the list my father gave me, i picked up a few things and put them in my basket until i felt a tap on my shoulder. I turned around to see Theo and her father standing in front of me, i pursued my lips a bit at the sight of Theo, i wasn't ready to see her again.

"Uhm, how are you Miss Jefferson?" He father asked as he gently grabbed my hand and kissed it as a greeting.

"I'm okay, Thank you Mr.Burr.." I replied.
"Alright, I'll leave you two alone to catch up" He smiled and excused himself, as he walked off my eyes wandered over to Theo as she stood infront of me, she gripped onto her light pink dress as she walked up too me a little bit

Theodosia's pov: I looked at Y/n as she glared at me, my grip became a little tighter as she looked at me. We both just stared at eachother with nothing to say until i opened my mouth

"Y/n..I know i messed up, I'm sorry I just thought doing that for you and Philip would rekindle something"...that was one of the reasons i dragged her to that church to see him but it was also because my love for Philip was getting out of hand, having a little crush on my bestfriends ex was horrible and i knew she had to get back with him so i could get over him finally. I looked at her as she looked down at her dress, the way i made her feel betrayed broke my heart. Her dress flowed in the crisp wind as she kept her gaze down her shoes...my heart fluttered a bit

Wait what?

No why was i feeling the way i do about Philip about my bestfriend now....was i really just so hopelessly romantic that i started to think my own bestfriend was starting to look a little cute.

She looked up at me and i snapped out of my thoughts, she cleared her throat and began to talk.

"Theo, I know you meant no harm but....Philip hurt me and you know that. I'm just not ready to get into anything with him and he's not going anywhere so...can we just leave him alone, let's just focus on us being bestfriends, no boys no drama just Me and You like its always been.." she said with a small smile forming on her face.

My face got a little hot, goodness i was a mess. I smiled back and she pulled me into a hug...i missed her hugs so much, I'm never gonna hurt her again hopefully i get more hugs like this forever.

Y/n's pov: I pulled Theo into a hug, she was just so sorry i could feel it and anyway there was no way i could stay mad at my bestfriend too long her heart was in the right place i just wish she would have thought about it a little more. I pulled away from the hug and played with the ends of her curly hair "I'm sorry I was so harsh on you Theo, i love you so much i dont know what I would do without you" i sighed and grabbed her hands. She smiled and nodded "Me either bestfriend" Theo smiled.

Theo had to go back with her father so we said our goodbyes and i got the rest of the groceries, payed for them and left. I was honestly happy to leave that damn market place, everywhere i went there was another boy gawking at me and my expensive ass dress that i couldn't tolerate any longer.

I had finally gotten home tired as hell, i almost fell asleep on the carriage ride home. I walked into the house and one of the maids took the basket away from me and ushered me up to my room.

I walked in to see my dad in my room sitting in the bay window. He looked over at me and smiled "Hey honey bee..you have fun at the market place?" He asked as he patted the empty spot on the cushion beside him. I sat down and shrugged. "I guess, I made up with Theo so thats good.." i replied and played with the lace on my dress a bit

"Thats good sweet pea" he said as he looked out of the window. Why was he in my room anyway...?

"Father why are you in here anyway?" I asked him. He looked over at me and grabbed my hands, with a small sigh he began to tell me something as his eyes watered up a little bit.

"You're so much like your mother, I miss her so much Y/n and looking at you everyday..i know she lives on, Annabelle would be so proud of you.." he smiled wearily as he placed a hand on my cheek

"Father don't talk about her or I'm gonna start crying, I know you miss her dad..I do too.." i sighed trying not to cry. He nodded and kissed my forehead "Hey I'm gonna go tell the maids to make dinner...i know you're hungry after having a long day at the market..I'll leave you alone just glad you got home safe. And I'm glad you made up with Theo Sweat Pea" he smiled and left my room.

I wiped my eyes as i felt them watering up. Gosh I love that man and when ge talks about mom my heart breaks. I sighed and walked over to my desk, i grabbed a quil and a peice of parchment paper and started writing to Eliza, I knew she needed some comfort. And I thought maybe having a girl to girl convo would help her alot.

"Hello Mrs.Hamilton, I hope this letter finds you in good health. I know how hard these past few weeks have been on you, but please know me and my father are here for you if you need anything we are at your disposal. Mrs.Hamilton, please don't let this ruin you, you're the strongest women I know deep down you know you're strong too. Philip, Angie...all your kids need you to be the strongest you can be right now and I know you have the ability. Eliza thank you for helping me when I was hurting, now it's my turn to be at your aid. You are a mother, a wife , a daughter and a very close person to my heart I'll make sure you get through this heart break...
~Yours truly with love and friendship Y/n Jefferson

Once I finished the short letter i sealed it in a pretty light beige paper and seal it with a clear wax, signing my name her name and our addresses on the front. I took it downstairs and put it in our outgoing mailbox.

"Sweet pea dinners ready!" I heard my father call from inside the house, I smiled at the mailbox and made my way into the house...i really hoped writing that letter would help the both of us until then I'd have to wait and see....
