Chapter 21- Love, Thorns Heartbreak, and repeat
Have fun with his one!
Seecond to last chapter!!!!
I was left to myself, my thoughts and that steady beeping.
It was dangerous to leave me with my own thoughts.
Very dangerous.

A rose without thorns is like love without heartbreak. ~~ This will stay with me.
A rose is beautiful and amazing even though it has thorns. Love is amazing and beautiful even though it has heartbreak. What a good comparison.

Love--
As I sat there alone with my thoughts, my mind wandered to if Thomas died, or if he didn't remember anything, or we broke up.
My thoughts snapped back to reality when Thomas woke up.
"Hey Tommy."
"Hey Lex." He said weakly. I let out a breath that I didn't know I was holding.
"Do you remember what happened?"
"I got the s*** beat outta me." He laughed a bit at his remark.
"Yeah. But you are okay now."
"Yeah, it is." He said smirking a bit. I blushed and laughed a bit.
"Do you know who it was?"
"No. I didn't know their names, but I figured that they went to our college seeing as they knew my name."
"What did they do? While I was running to you I heard a slur of insults."
"They beat me up. They were beating me up because I flipped them off and kicked one day when they insulted you once."
"wait, what?"
"One day while I was walking to the cafe to get some coffee, I heard them talking and they insulted you, so I flipped them off and kicked hem and just continued walking."
"Thomas, why didn't you tell me?"
"I didn't want to bring you down. I didn't want you to worry about people judging you."
"Uhh, I love you, Thomas Jefferson. I really do." I leaned forward and kissed him gently before hugging him.
"I love you too Lex."
I cuddled up to him and fell asleep against him.
He was going to be okay. We were going to be okay.
Thorns-
*Time skip (Huge btw) *
*After College Graduation*
*Thomas*
I set up almost the exact same thing for Alex as when we first kissed. I was fiddling with the velvet box with a simple ring inside my pocket.
I saw him walk up the stairs to the roof, where I had bursts of color.
"Thomas, what is this?"
I steadily walked towards him.
"Lexi, I love you. Ya know that right?"
"I love you too Tommy. Of course, I know that."
"Good, so please don't say no." He seemed confused before I set down on one knee.
"Thomas..." I could see his eyes gloss up.
"Lex, when I met you, you put a wall of thorns up and even after we started going out you never let that wall down, and Alexander, I love you more than anything, even my own safety. You have always been there for me, and even though we have had thorns in our relationship every now and then, we just pulled them out and continued strong and steady. I want to keep being with you. I want to keep staying by your side. Even if I have to pull out thorns every day and go through the pain of reaching you through that wall. I want to someday cut back that wall and reach you. See who you can really be. I want to hug and cuddle and kiss and cry and smile through it all with you. So Lexi, Alexander Hamilton, will you do me the biggest honor of marrying me?"
He was now crying his eyes out.
Soon enough he eagerly nodded his head up and down.
"Yes, Yes, Yes I will marry you, Thomas Jefferson!" He jumped forward tackling me and hugging me tightly.
HeartBreak-
*Alex*
*3 years later*
"PHILLIP NO!" I screamed out.
My 17 years old son slammed into another car. I was in the back seat. Thomas was at home.
Glass shattered.
"Philip! Thomas!" I weakly yelled out.
I blacked out.
*Thomas*
"Mr. Hamilton-Jefferson?"
"This is he?"
"I'm sorry to inform you, but your son and husband got into a major car accident and your son sadly passed away. Your husband has a concussion, broken arm, and shattered wrist. I'm sorry for your loss."
With that, she hung the phone up.
I sobbed.
My son.
My husband.
could never be able to pull these thorns out.
I walked into my husband's room and see him lying there sobbing.
He looked up at me and my heart broke even more. HIs face was red and puffy, so was mine.
"Tommy, h-he's g-gone."
I rushed over and hugged him tightly being careful of his wounds. I sobbed with him.
"I know. Shh, I know."
"It's my fault. Why couldn't I have saved him, helped him? He might still be here if it wasn't for me."
"No, it's not your fault. Don't blame yourself. I miss him too. Shh, I know, I know."
"I want him back. He was too young!"
"Shh, I know. Save your strength to heal baby. I miss him too."
"I don't want to heal. I just want to die!"
I cried en harder by these words.
I took his face in my hands.
"Don't you ever say that again. Don't blame yourself. I'm in pain too. I miss him too. But I am still here for you. We are still here for each other. We'll get through these thorns. Don't put that wall back up, don't you dare. That won't stop the heartbreak. You are a tough rose, you will get through this, we will get through this. If you di, who will add color to our dining room table, who will light up our garden? Huh? I need you. Don't die. Don't ever say that again."
I said gently pulling him in for a kiss. It was sweet and gentle. I hugged him and we stayed like that for a while.
Repeat-
Love-
*Alex*
4 years after Phillip died, we adopted another kid. A little girl named Theo. She had Thomas' curly hair and my tan skin. She looked like a female version of Philip. I loved her just as much too. So did Thomas.
After 4 years of heartbreak love and pain I was finally happt again.
Thomas never faultered. Thomas always stayed strong. he was my rock and he will always be there for me. I will always be there for him too.
Always.
Even until the end.
We are finally a perfect bouquet of bright roses.
It all started with a single kiss on the roof of a college dormitory.
A simple moment, defined b a kiss.
A life-changing kiss. That continued to bring us through the struggles of life.
A cycle of Love, Thorns, and Heartbreak, that would change me, break me, and build me up again.
Love, Thorns, and Heartbreak and repeat.
The beautiful cycle of life.
