Tbh this is kinda mid, but i just had to get this idea out here! It was infecting my brain lol, also, do you Like the Christmas theme?
The smell of gunpowder and leather filled the brisk air as George Washington strode through the encampment, his towering presence unmistakable. He carried himself with the kind of command that turned heads without effort, though his steely expression discouraged unnecessary conversation. Soldiers parted like water before him, saluting quickly and keeping their distance.
But then there was you.
George paused mid-stride, his sharp eyes locking onto you across the camp. His stoicism faltered for the briefest moment before his jaw tightened, and his gaze swept over you like a hawk assessing its prey. It wasn’t your rank or reputation that drew his attention—though those were respectable in their own right—it was... something else. Something he couldn’t quite put into words.
He inhaled sharply, straightened his posture even further, and made his way toward you.
When he spoke, his tone was clipped, almost cold. “Your uniform, soldier,” he said, nodding toward a barely noticeable scuff on your sleeve. “You represent this army and me. See to it that you maintain the standard.”
It wasn’t just the words; it was the way he said them. The words were sharp enough to sting, but his voice had a strange softness beneath the surface, like a crack in the ice. His gaze lingered for a moment longer than necessary before he turned on his heel and walked away.
The interaction left George bristling as he returned to his tent. He prided himself on his discipline, his control. Yet there was something about you that unraveled him just enough to notice. He scowled at the thought, muttering under his breath as he removed his gloves with unnecessary force.
“Foolish,” he whispered to himself, shaking his head. He was the General of the Continental Army, not some love-struck boy. Still, when he thought about the determination in your eyes, the way you stood tall even under the weight of his scrutiny, his chest tightened.
This wasn’t part of the plan. It couldn’t be.
The next day, George caught sight of you again during a strategy briefing. His words were precise, his demeanor as unyielding as always, but his gaze betrayed him. Every now and then, his eyes flickered toward you, lingering just long enough to make his heart race before he forced himself to look away.
Across the room, Alexander Hamilton leaned casually against a post, his sharp grin aimed at you.
"Come now," Hamilton said, his voice smooth and teasing as he gestured toward you. "Surely you’ve seen enough of Washington's brooding by now. A sharp mind like yours deserves better company—someone who can actually hold a conversation."
George’s eyes snapped toward Hamilton, narrowing slightly. “Hamilton,” he said sharply, his voice a low rumble that silenced the chatter around the room. “Focus on the matter at hand, not frivolities.”
Hamilton raised his hands in mock surrender, his grin undiminished. “Of course, General. I’d never dream of distracting anyone from their duties.” His gaze flicked back to you, a playful wink following his words.
From the other side of the room, Lafayette and Mulligan exchanged amused glances. Mulligan was the first to step forward, crossing his arms with a confident smirk. “Ignore him, darlin’,” he said, his voice rich and warm. “You need someone who knows how to handle themselves in more ways than one.”
Lafayette chuckled, stepping up beside Mulligan with an exaggerated bow. “But of course, it is I, the Marquis, who can offer the sophistication and charm you truly deserve.”
George’s grip on his quill tightened, the feather threatening to snap under the pressure. He didn’t look up, but his jaw clenched visibly as the scene unfolded. The casual flirting, the laughter—it grated on him in ways he couldn’t fully understand. Or perhaps he could, but he refused to acknowledge it.
When Mulligan playfully nudged you with his elbow, George finally rose from his seat. His towering frame commanded silence as the room’s energy shifted. “If you’re quite finished,” he said, his tone colder than the wind outside, “we have a war to win. I suggest you remember that.”
The alphas quieted, though Hamilton’s grin only widened. “Of course, General. We’d never dream of disrespecting such an important mission—or such an important soldier.” He shot you another glance, this one laced with deliberate mischief.
George didn’t respond. Instead, he turned on his heel and stalked out of the tent, his shoulders rigid. He told himself it was frustration at their lack of focus, not the jealous fire gnawing at his chest.
The night had settled over the camp, a stillness hanging in the air as George Washington made his way back to his tent. The usual hustle of soldiers and officers had quieted, leaving only the crackling of distant campfires and the rhythmic sound of boots against dirt. Yet, as he walked, something caught his eye.
There, at the edge of the camp, was the last person he expected to see standing alone. *You*.
His pulse quickened, a slight stir of discomfort forming in his chest. It wasn’t just your presence—it was the fact that he was drawn to you without reason, without understanding. You were an omega in the midst of a military camp full of alphas, and yet there you stood, unbothered by the chaos around you. The sight of you brought something unanticipated to the surface, something George wasn’t accustomed to.
As he neared, his sharp eyes caught the scene unfolding. Charles Lee was standing too close, too comfortable. Two soldiers flanked him, their attention on you, though their motives were far from noble. The way Lee smirked, the way the others watched—it stirred something in George that he was reluctant to acknowledge.
"Out here all alone, are we?" Lee’s voice, dripping with mockery, only fueled the irritation building in George’s chest.
Without hesitation, George stepped forward, boots crunching against the gravel beneath him. His broad frame seemed to draw the attention of the camp as he approached.
“Lee,” he called, his voice sharp and commanding. The noise from the camp seemed to hush, the tension palpable. The soldiers around him fell silent as George advanced.
Lee turned, his arrogance faltering just a moment before his expression shifted. “General,” Lee said, though the respect was begrudging at best. George could see him weighing the consequences of challenging him.
“I suggest you leave now,” George continued, his tone cold as steel, his gaze unwavering. “Take your men with you.”
There was a long beat of silence before Lee muttered something under his breath, likely to save face, but he stepped back and motioned for his men to follow. The group retreated without protest, leaving George and you alone by the firelight.
As the soldiers disappeared into the distance, George turned his focus to you.
You hadn’t flinched. You hadn’t backed down. And though he hadn’t seen you express much vulnerability, he couldn’t ignore the way the situation had unsettled you. Something about your calm demeanor only seemed to amplify his protective instinct.
“Are you all right?” The question slipped from his lips before he could stop it, softer than he intended. It was strange, hearing his voice like that, quieter than usual. But seeing you there—standing tall, unshaken, yet still caught in the aftermath of the confrontation—drove him to care more than he was willing to admit.
He felt an unfamiliar heat in his chest. “I won’t let them bother you again,” he added, though the words came out almost automatically. He wasn’t sure if he was trying to reassure you or himself, but there was a part of him that couldn’t just let the moment pass.
The flickering firelight danced across your features, highlighting the subtle tension in your body, the way your hands clenched at your sides. George knew better than to linger, but he found his gaze lingering on you far longer than it should.
“I’ll make sure they understand their place next time,” he added in a low, steady voice, though it wasn’t just about Lee anymore. It was about the way you made him feel.
The words hung in the air, and for a moment, George was unsure of what to do next. His chest tightened, the weight of his responsibilities pushing down on him as he tried to maintain his composure. He wasn’t one to be distracted, especially not by something—or someone—like you. But still, the pull was undeniable.
He turned abruptly, his back straight, as he took a few steps away. His mind was racing, but before he could disappear fully into the night, he stopped, his eyes flicking back toward you, an impulse too strong to ignore.
“If anyone bothers you again,” he called over his shoulder, his voice firm, “come to me.”
With that, he turned on his heel to walk to his tent
