Chapter 4.5

                                    

                                          
The last chapter, but a week later.
                          
Life had been a bit odd for the past week. Philip ended up finding the turtle and took it inside, meaning Hamilton had a minor mental breakdown - not that he had shut off his emotions anyway, they were off since Laurens died. He agreed to keep it, but only if Philip took care of it. 
                          
It was also bad enough since Lafayette wouldn't leave Laurens alone. Laurens didn't like any of it.
                          
"Laurens, are you still trying to be ze turtle?" Lafayette asked as he passed by a napping Philip. Laurens quickly flipped open his hand, letting his middle finger stick up (like other things of his--). Laf chuckled. "Oh be quiet, you know you love me." 
                          
Oh yes, plantonic love. No one truely cares. Laurens pulled his hand down quickly once he saw Philip moving around. Lafayette gave a small "pfft" then walked off. Philip groaned, rolling off the couch (they have those, right? Yeah, okay). A small thump made Laurens freeze up, including the turtle, who wasn't moving anyway. Philip giggled a bit, rubbing his eyes.
                          
"Hey, Laurens. Hey uncle Lafayette." Philip said, standing up. They both responded, but Lafayette just answered in French. Damn you fucking French bitch. Use English.
                          
"Laurens, why is there a turtle in your uniform?" Philip asked. Laurens looked down, noticing a small turtle in his pocket.
                          
"Oh, I guess there is a turtle there..." The turtle... was... "Oh shit! The turtle is fucking dead what the hell!"
                          
Philip giggled, picking up the small, lifeless turtle. "I guess he is gone. Laurens, can we put him on Papa's head?"
                          
"I don't know, Philip... Actually, lets do it. We're pranking Hamilton." Laurens said, giving a goofy grin.
                          
And so they did that. Philip ended up throwing the dead turtle at Alexander... it didn't go well. Laurens just enjoyed it, and Philip grinned through the whole thing. As for the dead turtle, it's shell was cracked. But, the ghost turtle was fine. It stayed in Laurens pocket and it would forever. That turtle was special.
                          
A/N
Woah look, an update.
Yeah, sorry for the dead turtle and late chapter. Have a filler.
I've been stressed lately, and very busy. I do want to thank everyone for the reads, votes, and amusing comments. Keep it up and I'll give somethin spicier than the spiciest meme.
                          
Also the turtle is going to be in every chapter, who's ready for a 9 year old philip coz i'm bored.
                          
This chapter was less than 400 words, this doesnt include the A/N.
