This book is like all Hamliza...

Requested by Jeggyforever

And it's not Christmas yet but who cares?!

Not me.

Btw everyone's in seventh grade

~Eliza POV~

I crossed my fingers in my pocket and reached into the bag.

The teacher called it a hat. It wasn't a hat.

I drew out a name. After I showed it to the teacher I dared to look at it.

Alexander Hamilton

Well dang it.

Lemme get this straight: I hated Hamilton.

I can't even remember why. Maybe Angelica or Peggy had a bone to pick with him. And I got it too.

Oh well. The point was...

I hated him.

And he was my Secret Santa partner.

Just great.

Maybe I'll convince one of my sisters to take care of it for me.

But probably not.

~Time skip~

So most of my thoughts on the Secret Santa have been on who got me.

I've gotten a few things, mostly candy that I gave away to my friends.

But as I went to my desk, I saw a piece of paper on my seat.

It was a poem.

I'm terrible at writing poems so I'll leave you with the last line.

Eliza, you are the love of my life

I folded it neatly and stuffed it into my pocket. Theo was pretty good at identifying people's handwriting so I'll ask her later.

So...

Apparently someone was in love with me.

Which is creepy.

The least of reasons being that I was only twelve.

Anyway...

I shoved the poem to the back of my mind and went about my classes.

I failed at that.

~A few hours later~

"Hey Theo" I said, pulling out the paper from my pocket. "Do you have an idea of who wrote this?"

Her eyes scanned the page. She smiled, folded it up, and handed it back to me.

"Oh, I know who that is. He literally told the whole class that he was going to write that."

I crossed my arms. "Then who?"

She smirked. "Now why would I deprive you of a perfect opportunity to find out for yourself? I'm being a good friend Liza."

Theo turned and walked away, casting back a smirk.

And then she was gone.

Welp. That went horribly well.

By that I mean it went horribly.

I am not a detective.

Wait.

But Peggy was.

AND CLIFFHANGER

also Peggy.

Part II coming soon if I can get rid of writers block.

BYE!
