Chapter 2
John's POV-
I beamed excitedly. Alexander frickin Hamilton is frickin there in the frickin front of me and I frickin never thought I was going to frickin see him again at my frickin college.
Alex and I noticed everyone was staring at us in wonder and/or confusion. I smiled and gestured to him to tell them how we knew each other.
He nodded, saying got my message clearly. He cleared his throat and started, "Oh, uhm, I met John here at my flight. We sat beside each other. It's quite coincidental, I guess."
Every nodded understandingly, a few "ooh's" and "ahh's" goin around. I sat down at the one seat that was left. We started catching up in each other's summers. Eliza was saying about how she joined a baking competition when a familiar-looking person, who so happens to be the waiter, arrived.
Hold on a second, that's Samuel Seabury. AKA best friend, and probably even boyfriend soon, of my arch nemesis, Lee.
We had tough times, alright.
"Hello, what can I ge- wait, I know y'all! You're the losers in our school!" He laughed.
"Hello there. I believe we just met," I said, the word 'met' showing my anger.
"It's me, Seabury! I go to your sch-"
"Yes, we know Seabury. Is this how you treat your fellow customers?" Alex blurted with a giant smirk in his face spelling 'sarcasm'. "And, please stop acting like a little child, we're in this place for mature people called college."
"Ugh - just give me your orders." Samuel muttered.
"Seven burritos," Angelica answered.
"But that's only $5!" Samuel reasoned.
Alex gave him a death glare which scared the waiter off his shoes. The waiter sighed and went to the kitchen to report their orders.
"Well that was worth to watch." Herc chuckled.
We finished our burritos then headed back to the dorm. We decided to call it a night. Me and Herc entered our dorm and fell asleep.
Just one day of freedom tomorrow then hell. I slumped down on my bed then quickly fell asleep.
~time skip~
Alex's POV-
I woke up in the aroma of pancakes and bacon. I came to the kitchen and saw Laf dancing and twerking around with a spatula in his hand.
Carefully, I hid behind the table and took out my phone. I opened Instagram and recorded Lafayette. As I replayed the video, I bursted out laughing. Lafayette noticed me and saw it. I ran around and had enough time to post it to my friends.
"ALEX!!!" I heard Laf shout. I snickered evilly. "The gang's gonna laugh at me!"
As if on cue, the gang did meet up outside and laughed.
"Lafayette, I didn't know you can dance," John joked. His laugh was adorable. Awe.
"No need to thank me." I chuckled.
John's POV-
Alex is so cute. I love everything about him. His puppy eyes, silky, black hair, his smile, laugh.
Did I mention he's cute?
After laughing out loud, neighbors started telling us to get a room. Are we that loud? We were inside their dorm eating the pancakes Laf made.
After that, we decided to play Truth or Dare at the living room. We all sat down forming a circle. Me between Laf and Eliza. Herc sat beside Laf and Angelica was beside Peggy who sat beside Eliza. Between Angelica and Herc was John.
Alex's POV-
"NEW BOY FIRST!" I shouted childishly. Giggles filled the atmosphere at my outburst. "Herc. Truth or Dare?"
He replied, "Dare."
"Confident, ey?" I chuckled.
A smirk replaced my smile. "Run around the 4th Floor, with only boxers on and shouting 'I THINK I HAVE CORONA VIRUS'."
"Deal." he answered. He stripped into boxers, Lafayette looking down at his hands and blushing, and then ran out the door.
We followed him until the door.
"I THiNk I hAVe CoROnA ViRUs."
All of us heard the unmistakable voice of Hercules down the hall.
"dUdE sHut thE fuCk uP!"
Once we heard a loud crack of knuckles, we retreated back to the dorm, assuming what was coming next.
He ran back after a few minutes, with a black eye.
"What happened?" Peggy asked.
"Jefferson happened." He muttered.
Everyone looked like they were going to cry from laughter.
I, on the other hand, looked extremely worried and confused. I ran to the freezer and grabbed an ice pack. I gave it to Herc and he accepted it gratefully.
"Who is this Jefferson, anyways?" I asked, very puzzled.
"Jefferson is one of the bullies in school. He beat up every kid in middle school. At least, according to John." Angelica explained, looking worriedly at John.
"Don't even try him," She gave me a worried look. I nodded.
Pfft, like I'll do that.
I'll do that.
"Alright, let's go back to the game..." Herc said impatiently.
~time skip~
Everyone was a mess.
Either a tomato, a punch bag, or a ghost.
Nicely done, right?
Is this really how Truth or Dare turns out? I was the exception, pretty calm, since I haven't been asked yet.
Until now.
Eliza turned to face me." Alex. Truth or Dare?"
I answered, "Truth."
"Okay... What is your sexuality, be honest."
"I-I, I'm bi..." I said, muttering the last bit. I was worried that-
"Hey, no need to worry. All of us are either gay or bisexual, except Angie and Liz. Don't think like we're homophobics," John comforted me. His voice was soothing. I smiled as a reply.
~time skip to tomorrow brought to you by procrastination~
Beep, beep, beep.
It was my alarm. I got up then took a shower. I was wearing my King's College sweater and black sweatpants.
I saw Laf already ready, eating corn flakes. I took a couple of mouthfuls, placed it at the sink, then ran to my class.
Law, the course I'm majoring, was my only subject today. But, it was 3 hours long. I made it to the classroom fourteen minutes early. I organized my notebooks, and pens. I was seated next to Aaron.
"Hi, Burr." I waved.
"Hi, Hamilton. Since when were we on a last name basis?" He asked, a weak smile creeping on his face.
"Since now." We were talking for a while until-
"Class. I am Mr. Washington, for Law. Today we will talk about..."
~time skip because idk anything about teaching law~
Come on, come on.
Everyone took glanced at the wall clock every once in a while, wishing that class was already finished.
I rolled my eyes. Law is fun, alright, except everyone was starving. Finally the stroke of 1 rang throughout the room.
"Okay, that's all for today. Dismissed." Mr. Washington finally announced with a heavy sigh.
A flood of students came running out the door. I grabbed my bag and walked with Aaron, but I was stopped by Mr. Washington.
"Alex, come here, please." He commanded. "Look..."
I turned to see my essay we wrote that day. I lifted my eyebrow to say, 'Hmm?'
"It's fifty-one pages!" He exclaimed. "I said a minimum of twenty-five!"
"Mr. Washington, you told the minimum was twenty-five. You never really told the maximum." I deadpanned, as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.
Is it?
"Not the point, Alex. I was calling you if you'd like to join Debate Club. Yes, there's Debate Class, but your work is
exceptional!" I smiled. It was an opportunity...
"I'd be interested. I mean, there's a million things I haven't done, but just you wait! Just you wait!"
"Okay, every Friday, after class." Mr. Washington stated. I then smiled a 'goodbye' at him and I walked back to the Dorm Building.
I placed my key on the key hole. I heard Hercules and Lafayette squealing. They fell quiet as I entered. I saw them sitting down at the floor with John, blushing...
Who knows why?
John's POV- meanwhile
I finished my class around 12. I decided to head over to Laf to ask for advice.
You may be asking, advice for what?
Advice to ask Alexander out... I was just nervous.
I knocked at his door. No answer. I had an spare key that Laf gave me. And I cannot believe what the sight I saw.
Lafayette and Hercules making out.
I squealed. "MULLETTE! MULLETTE! MULLETE, MuLleTtE!!!"
And you cannot imagine their reaction. I didn't even closed the door.
Laf and Herc sat there, on the couch, eyes wide and scared. I closed the door and smirked, "Oh ho ho. Since when was this?" Their eyes fell and glued on the floor. I laughed.
"DON'T TELL ANYONE!!!" they begged in unison.
"No PrOMisEs." I teased.
"Anyways, I'm here for something else..." I fiddled with my fingers.
"What is it, mon ami?" Laf asked.
"Uhm, uhhh. I-i, I l-like-" I started but was cut off.
"Alex?" Hercules chuckled. My stomach turned.
"H-how, h-how did you-?" I was cut once more.
"John, you talk about him in your sleep." Herc laughed.
My eyes widened, bigger than the reaction of the two. I blushed lightly.
Stupid sleep talking.
"Mon ami, you should ask him out."
"That's what I'm here for!"
Suddenly, they started fangirling -- or in this case, fanboying -- as well.
"OPERATION JOHN AND ALEX HAS STARTED!!!" Lafayette whooped, giving Hercules a high-five.
"Hold on, you've bee-"
Alex has entered the room. I started blushing mad.
"What's happening here?" he asked.
"Nothing!" we all said.
