(This takes place the day after the last chapter.)
ELLA POV

I successfully made it through school today without having to interact with Philip so that was a win. Now I'm just laying on Theo's floor with her. Doing nothing.

"Should I dye my hair?" I ask semi-randomly. I say semi because I've actually been thinking about dyeing my hair for a while now but never brought it up.

"Ooh what color?" Theo asks, now sitting up.

"I was thinking dark purple" I sit up and face her.

"Oh yes! To the mall!" Theo cheers, jumping. I laugh and stand up with her. She grabs my arm and drags me down her stairs. "Dad we're going to the mall!"

"Alright, have fun girls!" Uncle Aaron calls, looking up from his work and waving at us.

Theo and I run out of the house and start walking towards to bus stop.

"You're lucky" I sigh, looking down, as we reach the bus stop.

"What do you mean?" Theo questions, placing a hand on my shoulder.

"I mean your dad, he at least somewhat cares." I look up at Theo. She gives me a confused look. "I mean don't get me wrong I love my dad and know he cares about me but...." I trail off, unable to get my thoughts out. "But ever since mom died and Mary was born, he became a lot more distant... He doesn't really care what we do, he's always working or ranting about something, he doesn't really know anything about us.... It's just like he doesn't care"

"Ella... He cares about you-"

"I know! I just..." a tear falls down my face. "I'm sorry, I probably sound like a selfish brat" I quickly wipe the tear off my face before any more can fall.

Theo opens her mouth to say something then stops. She slightly smiles. What the heck? Before I can think any further arms are wrapped around my waist. Wait but Theo's in front of me? I look at the arms and see that they're covered in freckles.

"I'm sorry Ellie"

I pull away from the person, but stay facing away from them. I continue to avoid eye contact with Theo. "Hamilton I don't want to talk to you"

"Ellie please-"

"Don't call me that."

"Ella I'm sorry but-"

"OH LOOK! The bus is here!" Theo yells. She grabs my hand and pulls my onto the bus.

"Thanks" I whisper to Theo as we sit down.

"No problem"

~TIME SKIP TO AFTER THEY GET THEIR HAIR DONE~

"Theo!" I hear someone call. Well not really someone more like the Hamilton I don't wanna see or hear.

"Do you-" he stops and looks at me. "First off, I love your hair" I bite my lip to keep myself from smiling. For some reason the slightest complement from Philip makes me wanna smile but I'm still mad at him. I'm so confusing. "Second, I'm so so so sorry and I miss you so much, I need your help and even if we go back to being enemies, I want to interact with you again."

That's literally the sweetest thing he's ever said to me. I walk over to him. I stare at him for a moment. And try not to get lost in his beautiful hazel eyes but- dear god Eleanor you're doing it again. I slap him right across the cheek and a smile tugs onto my face. Philip opens his mouth but I start talking before he can.

"You fucking idiot" Philip looks at me with a completely shocked expression that's also insanely upset. "I've missed you Philly"

Philip grins. "I-" His phone rings.

"Hi Ma" He says into his phone. "Can I put you on speaker?"

"He called!" Eliza says on the other end of the line. She sounds overjoyed but also like she's been crying.

"Who called?" Philip asks, glancing at me confused.

"Alexander" Me and Philip look at each other and out jaws drop to the floor. Theo literally does a spit take with her soda. "Come how now. And bring Ella, I know she's there"

"Wait how-" Eliza hung up before I could finish. We all stand there in complete shock for a moment.

"You guys gotta go! Stop staring and get a move on!" Theo yells.

We all run out of the mall and bolt to get to the bus stop before the next bus gets there.

The bus stops right in front of us. "There's only 2 spots left kiddos" The bus driver says.

I turn around and look at Theo. "Go," She says waving her hands at me. "You need to go with him"

I nod and follow Philip onto the bus. We stay silent the entire ride. The bus slows at the bus stop closest to the Hamilton's. Philip runs out of the bus. Geez he's fast. I quickly try to catch up to him. I pant as Philip opens the door to his house. Eliza came in and handed us a bunch of stuff. The main stiff being a few bags and a piece of paper.

"You guys need to go to this address." Eliza points to what's written on the piece of paper before continuing. "Take your father's car. Ella, I already called your father and he said to do whatever you want. I have to stay here and take care of the kids. You guys go get Alexander. I don't know what to expect so stay together and stay alive."

I feel chills go down my back. I wonder where the address is. I look at the paper and see... South Carolina?! Why is Alexander Hamilton in South Carolina?! Great now I gotta spend 13 hours in a car with Phillip Hamilton. Whatever at least we've somewhat made up.

"Got it ma" Philip says, nodding his head.

Eliza gives us a half-hearted smile. I grab her hands and give her a small smile. "We'll get him back"
