-Alexander

"A-anybody who has the nerve to go after him will never be able to step foot in this estate again." I say, trying to sound strict, I turned around and started walking towards my office, the brat not leaving my mind.

What if he got hurt? I don't care. What if something bad happens to him? That's his problem. He has nowhere to go, I can live with that. What if he gets kille-

I arrived at my office.

"Alexander!" I sighed, of course i'm gonna get a few words.

I turned around to be greeted with a slap on my face "What the--"

"What were you thinking?!" Martha's tear streaked face was filled with anger, sadness and disappointment "I fixed my problem." I replied coldly "By kicking him out? You've crossed the line Alexander." She gritted her teeth.

"He crossed it first!" I snapped "Stop acting like a child Alexander! He's just a kid! A 17-year old orphan boy who managed to deal with your unbearable shit for the last few weeks!" She screamed, panting. I was shocked, she never cursed at me before.

"A-and still, until now..." She whispered "He can still put up with your goddamn problems,"

"And he might be the only one who can handle your shit like he does.."

I stare blankly at her "But, I wonder..." She chuckled miserably "How is he still able to put up with that attitude of yours." She looked down "I was really certain that he would change might change something in you.."

"Well, you thought wrong." I glare at her but she wasn't fazed at all "No, I didn't." She says as she turned around to the door "I still believe he will somehow be a big part of your life." She said as she left, leaving me in a painful solitude.

It was 7:26 pm

"Mon ami, I came as soon as I heard." A familiar voice interrupted the silence "Lafayette? Wh--"

"Did you really kick John out?" He frowned "I thought I told you to take the month's break?"

"Mon ami, I know you hate the child but isn't this going too far?" Lafayette took a step closer "If you do not leave right now, You might just get yourself a new job." I snarled, giving him an icy glare.

He flinched, but nodded and left without saying another word, like the obedient man he is, I can finally rela--

"Congratulations." I hear the door slam hard "Angelica..." I whisper at the fuming woman infront of me "You have invented a new kind of stupid." She smiled venemously, her fist clenched as her knuckled turned white "Truly, you didn't think this through? Kind of stupid." She snickered, taking a step closer

I stood up from my chair "Angelica--"

"Let's review." She pushed me back to my seat, slamming her hands on ny desk, hard "You were triggered by a young man's harmless attempts of annoyance and decided to kick him out BECAUSE he managed to make his way to your heart for just a little bit,"

"So you fought both him and your feelings, he wasn't even doing anything serious for goddamn sake! Of course, you being you-- You just had to take drastic measures." She hissed "Do you know why John can do what he wants? He doESN'T DIFNIFY SCHOOLYARD TAUNTS WITH A RESPONSE!" She laughed.

"So yeah! Congratulations!" She smiled sarcastically "Congratulations Alex! You just pushed away the only person who could've made a big change in your life!"

"But...I think I know why..." She says, taking a few steps back.

"You got scared. Scared that he might break down your walls, scared that he might become a big part of your life, you were scared to grow feelings for hi--"

"I DON'T HAVE FEELINGS FOR THE BRAT!" I scream at her, panting. She looked unfazed "You don't?" She chuckled bitterly "Stop lying to yourself."

"I know you like I know my own mind, I have never met anyone so unconsiderate and unkind..." She mumbled quietly "You didn't want to grow close to him because of a someone who grew close to your heart, you didn't want for it to happen again ..."

"But, I know-- deep inside you, you are still waiting for that someone, do you know why I know?" She gritted her teeth as faced me again, furious tears falling her eyes.

She slammed her hands onto my desk again "I LOVE YOU LIKE A BROTHER ALEXANDER! I WOULD CHOOSE YOUR HAPPINESS OVER MINE EVERYTIME!" She cried, looking at me with grief-stricken eyes "John..."

"He was gonna be a big part of your life..." She broke, looking down before glaring at me "So never lose sight of the fact that you have been blessed with the best people in this world..."

She straightened her posture, looking down at me "Congratulations."

SLAP!

"For the rest of your life, Hamilton."

SLAM!

"You messed up, bigtime Hammie." George scoffed, sitting on my desk "Leave..."

"Too bad... I really liked him.. And Angelica seemed to like him too... She really thought he was gonna change you."

"Well she thought wrong." I suddenly snap "Hmmph, she still believes he will change you--And Angelica is never wrong."

"No, he is just a pest to me, he can die for all I care." I say, carrying him out of my office "We both know that's not true." I dropped him to the cold floor "Ow--"

"I don't care about him, not now-not ever."

8:59 pm

It started raining.

John. I shook ny head at the thought, I don't care about him. He's gonna die under this rain, it'll be your fault. He'll be alright.

He's a kid. He's a teen. He'll die. He won't. How do you know that? He's a strong brat, he'll manage somehow.

Somehow?

Somehow.

I slept dreadfully for the night.

-

BOOM!

CRASH!

I jolted up from my desk, I glanced out the window only to be greeted by a heavy rain and fog, thunder and lightning everywhere.

I jumped out my window, glass shattering everywhere, Cutting through my skin,  the heavy rain quickly drenched my suit, but still- I ran. I ran, through the dark of the night, only one thought in mind.

John.
