Chapter 24

Peggy sighed. "Why didn't you tell me?"

Maria looked up. "Y-You're not mad at me?"

"I am. But not at you, I'm mad at your husband," She said.

"Please don't call him that, I hate him," Maria mumbled. Peggy nodded.

"So, does that mean we're, how can I say this," She hesitated. "over?"

"What? No, we're not," Maria frowned holding Peggy's hand. "Unless you want to, it's fine by me, I guess. But I don't want you to leave.."

"Then I won't," Peggy smiled intertwining her fingers with he girlfriend's. "I'm not going to leave you. But I have to ask, does that mean you're cheating with me?"

"I don't think so. I mean, I did throw that ring pretty hard," Maria chuckled. "In relationship, no I don't think so. We never loved each other anyway. Legally, I sorta did."

"Oh. Well, I'll protect you from him no matter what!" Peggy giggled. "I'll be your protector!"

"Aw, thank you, Pegs!"

"Andddd, founder of the MariaProtectionSquad!"

"What?" Maria asked, but what soon interrupted by an Instagram notification from Peggy's phone.

John and Alexander perked up as they heard an ear-piercing scream not too far from them.

They heard a thud and a groan. "Ouch..."

"Who's there?" John asked rising up.

"Fudge, Peggy's gonna kill me..."

They heard the faint rustle of leaves. The person stepped into the light and revealed theirselves.

"Eliza?" Alexander asked standing up as well. "What are you doing here?"

She sighed. "N-Nothing."

"And why is Peggy gonna kill you?" John frowned. 

"..."

"Were you there the whole time?" He stammered, a blush growing on his cheeks.

"Alright, fine! I was." She looked down. "I'm sorry."

Alexander bit his lip. "It's okay, Liza. At least only you saw, um, t-that." He blushed.

She chuckled. "Yes, it was so fricking adorable! And about that. I sort of, er, picturedthekissandposteditonInsta-"

"wHAT?!" 

"I'm sorry!" She cried. "It was just so tempting!"

"Three questions," John started. "One, did you tag us?"

"Yeah, I did." 

"Okay, which account did you tag me in?" He asked.

"Your alt. I didn't want your dad to find out, of course," Eliza answered. John sighed in relief.

"Either way, Peggy's still gonna find out," Alex pointed out before his eyes widened in realization. "Oh frick. She's gonna shower us with squeals and screams, and she's gonna yell at me 'I told you so!' repeatedly." He groaned. 

John laughed. "Third, what caption did you put?"

"Seriously?" Alexander raised an eyebrow. "You're fine with it?"

He smirked. "As long as it's me and you, yes."

"Oh my gosh, guys. I'm right here, y'know?" Eliza chuckled.

"OH MAH GOODNESS! MARIA COME HERE! OUR SHIP SAILED!" They heard Peggy shout.

"WHAT? YES FINALLY! HOLD UP, I'M GETTING HERC AND LAF SO THEY COULD SEE THEIR CHILD HAS GROWN UP!"
