Chapter 5

The Ten Duel Commandments

(Fun fact I've never told anybody: I'm named after Charles fucking Lee. No reason why, I just am. No, I'm not named Charles or anything, my name is Jenna Lee. As in General Lee. My name is a pun. Jenna Lee. General Lee. Another fun fact: Lee is the 'boys' spelling of the name. My parents gave me a boy name for the sake of  the pun. I hate my entire existence.)

(Also, I spent a long time deciding between 2 endings for this chapter, and I chose the one that will make you all want to stab me. I apologize in advance.)

Alexander's POV

I angrily scrolled through ratemyprofessor.com with the Hamilsquad.

charlesleelee: Washington is such a dick. He can't be left alone to his own devices. He's indecisive from classes, to classes. Doesn't cover any material at all. The best thing he can do for my education is going back to picking tobacco in Mount Vernon.

"Are you seeing this!" I shouted angrily closed my laptop and called Washington. "Goddamnit, George!" I shouted.

"Lafayette?" He said sleepily. "It's 3 AM." He said.

"No! It's Alex! And you should see the shit that Charles Lee was saying about you!" I said, pacing around the room while everyone else in the squad angrily looked at what Charles said and left good comments to bring his rating up.

I put him on speaker phone.  "Hamilton, I saw it-" "WAIT, YOU SAW IT? Well what are you going to do!" Yelled Lafayette.

"Nothing, Alex, Hercules, and Lafayette, don't you dare fight him. I doubt Laurens or the girls would hurt a fly so-"

"You wanna bet?!" Yelled all the Schuylers. "Correction: everybody but Laurens I do not trust. Now GOODNIGHT. Get some sleep. If I see any of you fighting you will be suspended." He said, and hung up. We were silent.

"He has some pretty strong words in most of these reviews." Said Eliza.

"Somebody has to hold Charles Lee to it!" Said Hercules angrily. "Then I'll do it." Said Laurens, speaking for the first time tonight.

"You're the best friends... And boyfriend I got." He said, and stood up. I stood up to look him in the eye.

"Laurens... Don't throw away your shot."

To: charlesleelee: heard you were talking shit.

charlesleelee: Park. Dawn. Guns drawn.

To: charlesleelee: Okay. Meet you there.

John's POV

"I do not like this." Said Hamilton, walking with me to the park. "I'll be fine. I promise." He said, and then kissed me.

"I'll just beat the crap out of Lee, you do it to people all the time, right?" He said and then let out a shaky laugh.

"So... What do I do?"

"Well you walk up to him, and then you count to ten, okay? One 5 you punch him, then don't do anything else until you get to ten, okay?" I said, and he nodded. I need to keep him safe.

He went to walk away, but I grabbed his arm. "Hey... I love you." He smiled.

"I love you too."

Alex's POV

I watched Laurens walk up to Lee. Right as he was about to punch him, Lee pulled out a gun. I froze.

"Dude, what the fuck! I thought you were kidding with the guns!" Said John, and raised his arms to surrender.

"D-don't test me d-dude." Said Charles shakily, backing up. I tried to shoot John a look that said 'John! Get the hell out of there!'

"Okay." Said John, obviously nervous but trying to remain calm.

"I won't hurt you. This whole thing is stupid. Just put down the gun."

"Don't tell me what to do!" He said, and his finger drifted towards the trigger. Please don't. Put it down. I wanted to scream, but I couldn't.

"Charles. Charles, listen!" He pressed the trigger, and John went stumbling back.

"John!" I screamed, but couldn't move. I made eye contact with Lee. "You shot him in the side!" I screamed, and he bolted away. I ran over to John.

Washington's POV

It was 5 AM and my phone started ringing. "Georgeeee get back to bed." Said Martha. I sighed. "I'm sorry, it might be work."

"Washington? It's Alex. I don't know what to do, man. Lee just shot John, he just shot John! He passed out and he won't stop bleeding, he shot him in the fucking side! I don't know what to do, I called an ambulance, they're not here yet. You gotta help me, please." Said Alex, and he sounded like he was on the verge on tears.

My eyes must have widened and my jaw must have dropped because Martha asked me "Are you okay, honey?"

"I... I'll be right back." I said, and ran out of the house.
