《Rewind (A Hamilton AU/ Hamgelica AU)》Chapter XIX

Advertisement

Angelica always dreamed of the perfect wedding, however, she was quite tired of them now. She'd been to so many wedding that were the same. She had attended Peggy's wedding for the second time and it was getting boring

Now she was getting married. The joy she felt was immeasurable, she just didn't feel like attending any more weddings, even if it was her own

She was already ready and the wedding would commence in 5 minutes. Eliza walked in with the last person she wanted to see at her wedding

Samuel Seabury

Samuel and Angelica made eye contact and glared at each other. The reason for the tension was because Angelica threw a tomato at Samuel during his speech and called him "a traitorous hoddy."

"Hello Angelica! It is a fine evening is it not?" Eliza said awkwardly

"Oh of course, Eliza. Tis a wonderful evening..." Angelica seethed

"Lovely, well I must going be going now goodbye—" Eliza spun around and tried to walk away

"Eliza?" Angelica called her

"Yes...?" Eliza responded in fear

"A word please." Angelica said in a deep, scary voice

"W-What you can say to me, y-you can say to both of us..." Eliza said, fearing for her life. She clung onto Samuel's arm tighter

"Alright, why did you bring this simpleton to my wedding, knowing full well everyone hates him?" Angelica said in a dangerously calm voice

"I want father to meet him. I hope he can put their political differences aside and be civil." Eliza explained

"Eliza, it's one thing to bring a loyalist here, but Samuel Seabury? That's a moral offense." Angelica raised her voice

"He's not as bad as you think! He's a good man..." Eliza's voice got higher

"Don't I have a say in this conversation?" Samuel asked

"NO!" Both women yelled at him, he stepped back in fear

"Eliza, why can't you understand nobody likes him, you're a Schuyler sister, and you come from a patriotic family?" Angelica interrogated

"BECAUSE I LOVE HIM!" Eliza yelled shocking everyone into silence

"You love who? Elizabeth, what is the meaning of this? Why is he here? Why are you and Angelica fighting? It's her wedding day!"

Phillip Schuyler walked in to see his daughter clinging onto Samuel Seabury and his daughters arguing

"Oh sir, my name is Samuel Seabury. I—" Samuel stuck out his hand for Mr. Schuyler to shake

"I know who you are, Sea-bass." Mr. Schuyler stared at his hand

Samuel put it down awkwardly

"I see. Mr. Schuyler, may we please have a chat? Away from the ladies?" Samuel asked

"No." Phillip said

"Father!" Eliza said

"Fine. Make it quick, Sea-belt." Phillip said bitterly

"It's Seabury, sir." Samuel corrected

"I know what your name is Sea-bitch."

Samuel sighed, as the two men both left

"Well, the wedding is beginning in two minutes. We should head outside. Eliza, I'm sorry it's just... why him?" Angelica told her sister

"Because he reminds me that I'm not just a Schuyler sister." Eliza said bluntly

The two sisters walked to the main ballroom and grabbed Peggy from John. The wedding was about to begin

Everyone got into their positions. Peggy walked down first with John, then Eliza with Samuel, Lafayette with his wife, Adrienne, and lastly Angelica walked with her father. He let go of her arm and she joined her soon-to-be-husband. He was holding back tears as she walked down the aisle, but they started coming out when she got to the alter

Hercules Mulligan threw rose petals behind them

"Are we ready to begin?" The bishop asked

"Yes." Angelica said

"Absolutely." Alexander agreed

"Alright. Let us begin with a prayer."

Everyone closer their eyes and held hands

"Lord God Almighty,

Creator of the heavens and earth.

Thank you for the gift of marriage

For all the joy and love that it brings us.

We thank you for Alexander and Angelica

Thank you that you have brought them together for this special day,

And that you hold them safely in Your hands.

We pray that you would richly bless them as they exchange their vows and their wedding rings,

And from this day forward they would walk hand in hand into everything that you have destined them to be.

We give our hearts and beings to You now in adoration,

And welcome Your Holy Spirit amongst us.

Amen." He concluded the prayer

"Amen."

"Alexander Hamilton, do you take Angelica Schuyler as your lawful wife, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and cherish until death do you part?"

"I do." He held Angelica's hand tightly

"And do you, Angelica, take Alexander Hamilton as your lawful husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and cherish until death do you part?"

"I do." Angelica looked into his eyes

"Do either of you have wedding vows you wish to share?" The bishop asked

"As a matter of fact, I do." Alexander said with a croaky, yet confident voice. He pulled out a piece of parchment and began

"Angelica Schuyler. Where do I begin? The moment I saw you, I knew you were special. A woman of your stature deserves the best and I intend to give it to you. I want you to know that, you are more than your family's title and that I've fallen helplessly in love with you. A beauty such as yourself could only resemble the Gods and your intelligence still manages to astound me every day. You're the only who has ever made me feel as if the world had stopped and it was only us. I promise to treat you with dignity, respect, and with the love you deserve. If in my duties I fail, I promise that I will do whatever I can to take away the grief I had brought unto you. Knowing you are alive and I sleep by your side makes this war worth fighting for and makes me want to live another day. You have taught me love, you have taught me patience, while the world taught me pain. When I was young my father left, my mother died, and I had absolutely no one to raise me. But, I'll never forgot my mother's face and what she taught me while she was alive. To treat the women around me with respect, and to fight for my causes. As long as I'm alive, Angelica, I swear to God you'll never feel helpless."

The entire room was silent

You could hear sniffles all around the room, even Phillip Schuyler was crying

The bishop held his tears back "T-that was beautiful, Mr. Hamilton. Ms. Schuyler, d-do you have anything to dec-declare?"

Angelica was also crying but tried to do her vows with as few stutters as possible

"Yes actually, um I-I..." She gestured to Eliza to bring her the parchment with her vows

Angelica unfolded her paper and began to read:

"My dearest Alexander, my entire life I have made sacrifices. I've never had anything to call my own and I never focused on my own happiness. But to stand here in front of you has made me realize my sacrifices were worth it. I cannot begin to imagine a world where you're not mine. Being with you has made me realize that I am more than just my family name. I am more than "Just Angelica." And I am more than some woman at the ball. I know my worth and you have given me 3x more. I thank you for not belittling me when I speak, for calling me beautiful when I look nowhere near it, and for letting me be your wife. I will always be satisfied if I'm with you."

By this time, there wasn't a dry eye in the room

The bishop was now in tears "Truly ma-marvelous. W-well let us c-conclude our vows with a p-pra-prayer..."

"Lord bless this beautiful couple with love and hope we pray.

Keep alive forever more the vows they've pledged today.

May you bless their dreams and visions,

And keep them always safe.

May peace and joy be with them now

On this their wedding day.

Amen."

"Amen."

"I now pronounce you husband and wife, you may now kiss the bri—" the bishop was interrupted

Angelica jumped into Alexander's arms and he pulled her close by the waist. They kissed each other passionately and pulled away

"I will always be satisfied..." Angelica said as she looked into his eyes

Author's note: I'm not good at writing weddings, so I made this longer because it was Angelica and Alexander. Y'all, I'm so happy my children are finally satisfied. Anyways, hope you enjoyed this chapter!

Love,

Kennedy Brown❤️
