Alexander was typing away on his computer, ignoring the many text messages he was getting. He had skipped school, pretending to be sick. There was a knock at his door.

"Come in!"

The door opened and he turned his head to see Angelica.

"Angelica?"

"Alexander." She walked over to him. She slapped him. "Congratulations. You have invented a new kind of stupid. Damage you can never undo kind of stupid. Open all the cages in the zoo kind of stupid. Surely you didn't think this through? KIND OF STUPID.

"Let's review. You took a rumor a few, maybe two people knew, and refuted it by sharing an affair of which no one has accused you. I begged you to take a break, you refused to.

"So afraid of what your enemies will do to you. You are the only enemy you ever seem to lose to! You know why Jefferson can do what he wants? He doesn't dignify schoolyard taunts with a response!

"So, yeah, congratulations!"

"Angelica-"

"You have refined your legacy!"

"It was an act of political sacrifice!"

"Sacrifice? Do you know what I'm here to do?"

"Angelica-" He reaches for her hand and she yanked it away.

"I'm not not here for you. I know my sister like I know my own mind. You will never find anyone as trusting or as kind. And a million years ago, she said 'This one's mine', so I stood by. Do you know why?

"I love my sister more than anything in this life, I will choose her happiness over mine every time! Eliza, is the best thing our lives! So never loose sight with the fact you have been blessed with the best life!

"Congratulations! For the rest of your life, every sacrifice you make is for my sister, give her the best life! Congratulations!"

She slapped him again, and marched out of the room, leaving him feeling extremely guilty. A few seconds later his phone buzzed. Three messages from Angelica. He opened them. The first one was a picture of Eliza, curled up, with her little brother Phillip and the three littlest Schuylers trying to get her to stop crying.

The second one was a video of Maria. It showed a group of boys taunting her, catcalling her. One actually grabbed her and slammed her up against the lockers and tried to undo her pants before Burr interfered and and quickly ushered her away, glaring at the boys.

The last message read, "This is all your fault. You have never satisfied. God, I hope you're satisfied!"

Alexander collapsed into his chair, dropping the phone. "Oh, god, what have I done?" He muttered.

Three updates in before 1pm! I'm on a roll!
