Chapter 9~A Thanks
Philips's P.O.V
Angie screamed my name is the absolutely most heartbroken agony at the news of..i'm not sure. She ran out onto the porch, screaming, begging for me to come home. It gradually grows silent and mom wraps her arms around her and silently sobs.
She knew things would never be the same.
Then I thankfully woke up in a cold sweat. "You good?" Angie asked. It was a such a relief to hear her voice. I nodded. "Seriously, you sure? You were shifting a lot in your sleep." Angie stated. "Did you have a dream that you and Eacker were friends?"
"Oh god no." I said. Eacker was someone I go to college with and he is an asshole to say the very least. I got up and went upstairs. "Hey guys." I said as I sat between James and AJ. "So AJ, you still having girl troubles?"
James broke out laughing and AJ gave me a death stare. "Shut up James! Don't even lie, you like that Mary Morris girl."
James shut up right away. I laughed. "Damn, y'all are having girl troubles before me." I commented. "Didn't you have a crush on that Ashley girl while you still in high school?" James said. "She ended up being a bitch." I respond. "Look boys, just get the girl." I said and William came waddling in the room. Angie came into AJ's room. "Philip, can we talk?" She asked.
"Yep..i'm coming." I said and got up. We went down into the living room where mom was playing with Rachel. "So whats up Ang?" I asked. "Do you like Theo in...that way?" She asked. I swear to god I could have punched her out right then and there. "No Angie. Yeah she's pretty and nice but come on! I haven't even known her for a month. I doubt we're ever gonna have a thing." I respond. "But this is Philidosia fan-fiction" Angie said.
(Angie and Philip dramatically look in your direction and insert beep screen thing)
"Okay, okay. But if you 2 do ever end up liking each other I want to be the first to know." Angie said with a smirk on her face. "Whatever." I say and roll my eyes. Then their was a knock on the door.
"Philip, Angie, can you look after Rachel? I'm gonna go answer the door." Mom said as she got up. Me and my sister nodded and Angie walked over to Rachel. Mom opened the door and said "Oh, hello Mr.Burr!" Sounding cheery as ever she invited them in. That's when dad came downstairs. "Um Betsey..what are you doing?" He asked.
"Showing some hospitality." My mom responded with a smile. Angie scooped up Rachel and I followed her into the kitchen. "So, what brings you and your daughter here Mr.Burr?" Mom asked. "Well..i'm mainly here to see your son." He responded. "Which one?" My dad joked and mom hit him on the arm.
"Of course! I assume its Philip?" She said. "Yes, please. I owe him." Mr.Burr responded. "What is it?" I said, taking a couple steps forward. "You saved my daughter's life. Words can not express how thankful I am." He responded. Everyone in the kitchen looked at me. "Philip honey, can you explain?" Mom asked.
So I did that. Not even dad made a witty comment or anything which was surprising. "You did the right thing Philip." Angie assured me. "Ah..Theo told you about it?" I said, not really knowing what else to say. Mr.Burr nodded. "What made you want to help my daughter? She's a Burr and your a Hamilton."
"Just because our families are enemies doesn't mean I have to treat her badly. Theo's my friend and besides, a few years ago, something like happened to my sister so of course I decided to help." I responded. My dad turned his head away and Mr.Burr smiled. "God bless you. Alright, we will be taking our leave now." He said and got up, Theo following him. "Wait- before you go. Theo, what brings you back to New York?" I asked. "I wanted to surprise my dad." Theo responded.

I grabbed my bags. I was about to leave and head back to CU. Just basically protocol : Hug my family goodbye, come back for my birthday 3 weeks later. Simple as that.
