Aaron's POV
I lean in to kiss her. I can't help it, she's so beautiful and funny and wonderful. I couldn't help but fall in love. Her lips were soft.
"I love you, Angel" I whispered against her lips.
"I love you, too" she pulled back at her remark, which left me stunned. She laughed at me, "you have a cake mustache"
I crossed my eyes trying to see what she was talking about. I must have looked even more ridiculous, for at that moment everyone began to laugh.
"Let me help you" Angel took out a napkin and wiped under my nose. I had a feeling the boys would not let me forget her action.
"My turn" Lafayette said stumbling over his English. He turned to me, "truth or dare?"
"I'll go with truth."
He suppressed a smile, "do you think she helped you because she loved you? Or that she thought you were a kid?"
"Have you been practicing that phrase?" Hamilton asked smiling.
"no" Lafayette said shaking his head.
I opened my mouth but Angel answered for me. "I believe that should be asked to both of us." She turned to me, "what do you think Aaron, do you love me?" Unable to come up with words I simply nodded. "Then I love you too."
She kissed me again.
"Ok my turn!" Nelia says. She turns to Lafayette and says "truth or dare"
"Dare" he says on command.
"I dare you to kiss the prettiest girl here" he hesitates. Angel stiffens.
He looks at Nelia, "you are more than pretty, you are beautiful" he kissed her.
"Awwwww" Kitty says. "Oh wait, that didn't work."
I saw Angel facepalm. I smothered a laugh. I would too, those two are a handful. Although, Theodosia's a handful too. I totally understand. Sometimes it felt like I was the men's babysitter. Hamilton is immature, Laurens is just plain reckless, and Mulligan and Lafayette always seemed to be singing.
"Is it my turn?" Mulligan asked, Kitty nodded. "Ok, Miss Eliza, truth or dare?"
She leaned toward Mulligan, "dare." She said it with such confidence I would of thought she was about to slap him.
He looked taken back, "alright, I dare you to tell everyone here, your deepest, darkest secret"
She glared at him before answering, "fine, I ran over a dog while horseback riding once."
"not expecting that" Angel muttered.
"Do I go now?" Kitty asked. Everyone nodded. "cool" she turned to Peggy, "Truth or dare?"
"Dare."
"kiss someone besides your date" Peggy immediately got up and walked over to Eliza. She gave her older sister a kiss on the head, and walked back to her spot.
"do you girls normally play truth or dare?" I asked Angel.
She smirked, "nope." Angel said popping the 'P'. "Special occasions only."
"and are we considered special occasions?"
"What do you think," she said. I chuckled and kissed her.
"Has everyone gone?" Eliza asked
"I haven't!" Laurens said jumping up. I shook my head at his reckless action.
"then go ahead Mr. Laurens" Angel said.
"Alexander" he started.
"dear God." I heard Hamilton mumble.
"truth or dare?"
Hamilton shook his head, "Truth."
John smiled, "what is your deepest, darkest secret?"
"that I call you guys my friends."
"Alex!" Eliza scolded.
"what?" Hamilton protested, "have you met the guys?"
Laurens paused before erupting with laughter. Mulligan and Lafayette joined in and I held back a snicker.
Angel turned to me, "is this what normally happens?"
I nodded, smiling at her astonished look. "All the time."
"My god"
"Wait," Hamilton said, "I didn't go."
"Then go Alex" I said annoyed.
"Truth or dare," he said, turning to me.
I sighed, "Dare."
"Bring out the pie!" He told Mulligan. Mulligan came back with a pie covered in frosting. "This is a frosting pie." Hamilton told me, "I dare you to stick your face in it."
"Out of curiosity, were you already planning to put this on my head?" I asked as I took the pie from Mulligan. Hamilton, Mulligan, Laurens, and Lafayette nodded.
"You are a very strange bunch" Angel pointed out.
"Well, here goes nothing" I stuck my face into the pie. Frosting clung to my cheeks and forehead.
I brought my head back up and licked my lips. "you just put frosting in a pie tin. Didn't you?" The boys nodded while trying not to laugh.
I saw Angel pinch herself to stop herself from laughing with everyone else. She smiled and bit her lip at a last attempted to stop herself from giggling.
"It's fine you can laugh" I said
"I'm not laughing at you" she explained, "I'm laughing at the fact your friends brought a pie to smash in your face." Angel fell back from laughing so hard.
I thought about this. It actually is very funny, that they went through all this just to prank me. I started to laugh too.
Angel's laugh was beautiful. I reached over and kissed her, spreading frosting all over her face.
"Awwww" Kitty and Nelia said for a fourth time.
Angel pulled back, "you two are getting very annoying."
"That's our job" Kitty started
"Because we are your younger sisters." Nelia finished her sentence.
"That I believe is true" I added, "younger sisters can be annoying. But they're still family." I smiled at her.
"Strong words." Peggy said "but the sun's going down and our father said we have to be home by sundown."
"Daddy doesn't need to know" Angel said smirking.
"Oooo" the boys, including me, said in unison.
"B-But" Peggy stomped her foot, "If we get in trouble I'm blaming you."
"Do you really want to leave me?" Laurens wiggled his eyebrows.
"No, but those two" she pointed to Eliza and Angel, "have gotten me in trouble for things they are responsible for."
"If your talking about last week" Eliza protested, "then, we told you that you could go."
"But I still got in trouble."
Angel rolled her eyes, "if you want, you can take Kitty and Nelia home, and explain to father that we refused to leave."
"And if you leave, we'll tell daddy you kissed John" Eliza said, blackmailing her.
"That means you won't see me either" Laurens said.
"Why is the whole world against me?" Peggy complained
"I think it more, that they're trying to convince you to stay," I replied. Peggy glared at me.
"We are" Angel soothed. She turned to me and mouthed 'thank you.'
"But we aren't, because we wanna stay" Kitty said. "Wait. That didn't make any sense." Mulligan laughed.
"Well, I'm blackmailing you" Eliza said.
"I would have never thought" Hamilton said, "that you would say something like that."
"Well I'm a very determined woman, and it's best you remember that." she replies.
"I will," he replies and leans in and kisses her.
"Awwwwww"
"I swear, one more time and you are going home." Angel said.
"Burr" Hamilton held back a laugh, "you still have frosting on your face."
I picked up the pie tin that still had frosting in it and flung it at his face. Bullseye.
He removed the tin and looked at me, "oh it's on Burr." It picked up a hand full of frosting. But instead of throwing it at me, he rubbed it on Eliza's cheek.
"Alexander!" She said pushing him over. "Wait we only have one frosting 'pie'"
"That might not be true" Laurens took out another pie and pushed it into Peggy's face.
"John!" She roared. Oh no. She took the mess off her face and slammed it into Laurens' hair.
And so it went, with everyone throwing pies until Peggy said "Our dad is going to be looking for us. We should probably go."
"we have pie all over us" Angel pointed out, "what's our story this time?"
"We got attacked by flying pie" Kitty suggested, "it's not too far from the truth." The others shrugged.
"Hey."I caught Angel before she left. "Same time, same place, tomorrow?"
She smiled at me"ok, Mr.Burr."
