Chapter Text
They were an interesting pairing, that anyone could readily admit. Margaret Schuyler, more commonly known as Peggy Schuyler, was a Manhatten born-and-raised business spare, beneath her two sisters, Angelica and Elizabeth. Peggy would likely not inherit her father's coffee company but she was in succession, and in the line of wealth, as far as anyone with a Forbes subscription was concerned. However, Peggy had no interest in being publicly wealthy- she was interested in traveling, meeting new people, and the arts. But surely, her inheritance helped that.
Gilbert du Motier Marquis de Lafayette was a mystery unto himself. He had no living relatives, and had suddenly uprooted himself from his home in France and moved to New York, deciding to attend Columbia University. It was there that he met, as he described, "The women who held his still-beating heart", Peggy Schuyler. They met in a French Literature class- Peggy's minor. They had hit it off immediately, and oddly understood each other so well. They dated Freshman through Junior year, when Lafayette proposed. They married in the Summer after graduation, when Peggy was 22 and Laf was 23.
Sure, they were an interesting pairing. But no one could dispute that they were a perfect pairing, either.
