Secret (Alexander X Reader)
A/N: Hello, lovelies! This imagine was requested by @justapieceofsimstrash. It’s a modern au, featuring the Hamilsquad and Schuyler Sisters as well! It’s all pretty fluffy, and I hope you enjoy!
t was early. Too early to be awake. Either way, someone was opening the curtains of the hotel room. You squinted, trying to figure out who was letting the light in. It was Alexander, of course. “Good morning, sleepyhead.” He came over to the bed you’d shared last night, sitting next to you. “How are you?” He fan his fingers through your hair, which made you smile.
“Good,” You paused, collecting your thoughts. “Tired, but good.”
“Well I hope you aren’t too tired, because everyone else wanted to go to the beach today.” Alex, never one to sit still for too long, had gotten up and began pulling different shirts and shorts out of his suitcase for your trip to Hawaii.
“I’ll come. Do you know when we’re going?” You started to climb out of bed, messily making it afterwards.
“We’re meeting in the lobby at noon.” You nodded, and started to get ready. Reaching into your suitcase, you pulled out your favorite bikini. It had a plunging neck line, which was filled with strips of fabric, almost like a cage. In the back, it tied like a halter. The bottoms were less than modest, and were black, to match the top. It was definitely revealing, but you didn’t care, because it was just your friends.
Alexander was in the bathroom, but when he got out, he took one look at you and said, “Whoa.”
“You like it?” You did a little pose, for your boyfriend to take a look.
“I’m not sure if I can keep my hands off of you in front of everyone else if you’re wearing that.”
“Then don’t.” You flashed a smirk, obviously being a tease. In this bathing suit, you felt like a model. You were so confident, and you loved it.
“Y/N, you know that we’re keeping our relationship a secret.” Alex whined. “Weren’t you the one who said ‘Keep it a secret, it’s funner that way’? The two of you had gotten together a few days before your group of friends flew off to Hawaii for vacation. Now you were three days into the trip, and you weren’t sure if you could last another four days without the group finding out. You and Alex would have to leave the hotel room at different times, so no one suspected that you were sharing a room.
“C’mon, Alex. Do you actually think Herc will care?” The reason you weren’t telling your friends was because you and Hercules used to be dating. Although now you were great friends, you didn’t want to hurt his feelings. Alex gave you a knowing look, and you groaned. “You’re right.” You paused, and then said, “But I’m still wearing this bathing suit.”
“Fine. I’ll just have to keep it to myself.” Alex groaned, but he still wasn’t that upset, because he got to see you in that bathing suit.
Everyone was packed up and heading down to the lobby. You went before Alexander, and you were greeted by Angelica, Eliza, and Peggy. You all sat in the hotel lobby, waiting for the guys. Soon enough, John, Laf, Alex, and Herc came through the elevator. “Everyone ready to go?” John was eager to get on the beach. You all nodded, climbing into two different cars. One for the boys, and one for the girls.
“So, Y/N.” Angelica looked back at you through the rear view mirror. “Are you sure that you don’t want to room with us?” To make it so you and Alex could share a room, you had told the girls that they could have a room so you wouldn’t crowd it with four people. Alex said the same thing.
“Don’t worry Angelica. I don’t want to crowd things up. Peggy’s already on the pull out couch.”
“Yeah, and it’s awful.” Peggy joked.
“Peggy! Be hospitable.” Eliza scolded. You all giggled.
As silence sunk in, you wondered what the guys were doing in their car...
The beach looked stunning. The crystal clear water lapped up on the soft sand. As foam washed away from the tides, shells would appear in the sand, before they were quickly snatched up again by the waves. Everything was so pretty, almost too pretty to walk on.
Clearly, John and Laf didn’t feel the same way, because they were running down the sand with their surfboards. One of them shouted, “Calabunga!” and the other went, “Woohoooo!”
The group spread out on the beach, which was fairly empty. John, Herc, and Alex took on the waves with their little surfing knowledge. Lafayette sun bathed in a bathing suit that left little to the imagination. Peggy and Eliza took photos. Angelica was reading. You watched the boys surf, rather, fall of their boards.
After a while, the guys came in, talking about how much fun they had. “Did you see me out there, Y/N?” Alex came up to you, and you both gave each other a peck on the lips. The moment you withdrew, you realized what you had done, and you could tell that Alex felt the same. Everything fell silent.
Angelica was the first to speak, “What.”
“That.” Peggy finished the sentence.
Everyone stared at you and Alex, waiting for an answer. “I can explain.” Alex spoke, and you worried that his answer wouldn’t convince them.
“Okay, so a week or so before we left for Hawaii, Y/N and I were hanging out. As friends and all. But then things began to escalate, and-”
“Alex, you can skip over that part.” You interrupted him, afraid that he would embarrass you.
“Well after that we kinda realized that we really, really liked each other. We just didn’t want to hurt Hercules’s feelings, or make anything awkward between our friend group. Sorry guys.” Alex hung his head low, as if he were ashamed.
“It’s okay.” Hercules was the first one to speak, which surprised you. “Y/N and I dated so long ago, and we’re great friends now. I don’t mind at all.” Then, other people began to chime in about how they were fine with it.
You and Alex smiled, and everyone had a group hug. “Thanks guys.”
