Alexander POV

Joining Herc, Laf and John, I put an arm around his neck

"Happy Birthday Jacky." I say. He jumped a little.

"You remember?" He asks surprised. I nod.

"What a friend I will be if I forgot my best friend's birthday." I say looking at Herc and Laf with a smirk.

"I was going to tell you, mon ami," Says Laf.

"Me too !!!" Herc says to catch up. John laughs.

"Thank you guys," He says with a smile.

"Mon ami, You have left your hair loose? It suits you pretty well, " Says Laf, smiling.

"Thank you,"

The bell rings we go to class.

"Hello dear students, today we are going to work on French in pairs," Says Professor John Jay.

Eliza raises her hand.

"With Mr. Washington we have already done pairs," She says.

"I'd rather you all change," He says.

"Can we choose?" Asks Peggy.

"No, it's me who does the groups," He says.

"James Madison et Marquis de Lafayette"

"Angelica Schuyler et Hercules Mulligan."

"John Laurens et Samuel Seabury."

"Aaron Burr et Peggy Schuyler."

"Thomas Jefferson et Alexander Hamilton."

"Charles Lee et James Reynolds."

"Eliza Schuyler et Maria Clement Lewis."

"I'm going to distribute a file, I do not want to hear you talk about other things," He says.

Thomas POV

Everyone has a leaf.

I am with Hamilton. I hate it. He is too arrogant...uh...more arrogant than me.

He's just feeding his ego. He intimidated my friend and now he is his boyfriend ???? I can't.

Today he has not tied his hair, Basically, it is even uglier than before.

Before I can insult Hamilton in my head, Alexander sits next to me.

"So Tomato." I'm going to kill him.

"Let's finish this file quickly," He says.

"Okay Alexandra," I say bored and amused at the same time. He gives me a dark look.

"Don't call me that, Tomato," He say, clenching his teeth.

"Then stop calling me Tomato, Alexandra," I say. He rolls his eyes and puts his file on my table.

We speak little to finally make each one for either.

Eliza POV

"Hey! Marie! "Aaron says, ruffling her hair. She's laughing with him.

"I told you not to call me that," She says between her laughs.

They do a High five before separating.

Is he his boyfriend ?

I go to Maria's table. I notice she is not happy to see me.

I sit next to her and give her a wave.

She turns her head and avoids looking at me. She must still blame me.

"I'm really sorry for what I did to you in the corridors." I say shyly.

She looked at me even more pissed off than last time.

"Oh! NOOO, serious??? Of course, that's why you did not want to apologize! " She says ironically.

"I..." I say.

"No. It's every man for himself, princess," She says bitterly, turning her face away from me.

I sigh and make my record.

Aaron POV

"Happy birthday John," Peggy says, trying to whisper in his ear.

We all know that Peggy can't speak softly.

Peggy comes over to me with a big wave of my hand. I do the same.

We work together since Peggy is .... not good on this matter, it's me who does everything.

James POV

I get up to finally have my cousin in front of me.

"James be nice to Laf, ok?" Asks Herc. I look at him confused.

"Laf????" I ask.

"Lafayette," He says. I nod.

"You really want him I see. You really need him that you doubt of your cousin, "I say, pretending to cry. He rolls his eyes

"All right, all right," I say, going with my chair next to Marquis de Lafayette.

"Hi Marquis," I say, sitting next to him. He smiles back.

"Hi James," He says.

"So we have to start with that..."

Lafayette POV

Herc's cousin is rather cute and intelligent.

"Can you do that?" He asks with star-filled eyes.

"You're not coming, mon ami?" I ask surprised.

He crosses his arms and sulks.

"It's not because I can average in all the branches that I'm strong in everything," He says. He is SO cute.

Showing him something with my finger. His gaze changes.

"Do you have varnish on your angles?" He said.

"I...well..."

"It's too beautiful," He says, taking my hand and examining it more closely.

"That is true? Do you really think so? "I ask. Usually, people tell me he thinks it's strange that a boy is wearing it.

He raises his head towards me and nods.

"Is it you who puts it alone?" He asks. I nod.

"It must be hard," He says, touching my fingers one after the other. I nod.

"It's black? Ah! No, it's dark purple. It suits you, " He says, looking at me and smiling.

"Thank you," I say, blushing a little.

After we finish the file quickly, we take the opportunity to talk.

"So Joseph...."

"Huh ??? Why are you calling me that?"I ask.

"Because you're called that," He says, laughing a little. I understood.

"Pick a name and keep it." I say rolling my eyes.

"Ok then I choose....Marie," He says.

"Wh...What? Why?" I ask.

"Because," He says.

"No, take another one."

"Why?"

"I'm not a girl," I say.

"But that brings out your feminine side," He laughs. I shake my head.

"Mmmh....Paul?" He asks. I shake my head.

"Yves?" He asks. I shake my head.

"De?" He asks.

"Seriously?" I say, making him laugh.

"I'm kidding Laf," He says. I look at him confused.

"Laf?" I repeat.

"My cousin calls you that, can I do it, please?" He asked innocently. I nod. He gives me a big smile.

"Well, I just wanted to tell you, you could wear white more often," He says. I'm thinking.

"Put you in your respective places."

James gets up, takes his chair and goes to his place. He's pretty funny as a guy. I will reflect on his proposal.

* Time skip * Recreation

Hercules POV

I was a little jealous that James got on well with Laf.

Thomas POV

I saw James touch Lafayette's hand. I was frustrated a little-if it was just a friendly gesture.

"Thomas?" Aaron says.

"Yes?"

"What don't you like about James?" Asks.

"Uh..." I think.

"His jokes," I say.

"How dare you ?!" James says. I laugh.

"What about you?" Aaron asks James.

"The fact that he never listens to me," he said, crossing his arms.

"What? I'm listening to you all the time! "I say.

"Ok, so stop being cute," He says with a smile.

"What?" I blush and hide my face in the hollow of my hands.

"You see? He's doing the opposite. "James said. Aaron laughs. The bell rings.

We go to class.

* Time skip *

Aaron POV

In class, I heard Peggy say happy birthday to John.

Shit! What do I have to do? Do not tell him anything? Give him a gift? Just tell him happy birthday?

I think and decide the second and the third option.

I'm getting close to James who is arranging his things.

"Do you want to go with me to the store? " I ask him. He nods.

When we leave the classroom, James talks with Thomas to tell him that he will be with me. He takes it well and gives us a sign before leaving.

Shit! What should I give him as a gift ???

We leave towards the store.

"What do you want to buy?" Asks James.

"A gift," I say.

"For Alexander?"

"Laurens," I say. He widens his eyes.

"Are you cheating on him?" Asks James. I shake my head.

"It's his birthday today," I say.

"And you want to give him a present? Really? "He asks.

"He doesn't trust me and ... it's his birthday," I say.

We arrive in the store.

Chance I have some money on me. I am looking for something that he might like.

I am looking for something that he might like.

I am looking for toys, shoes, keychains and clothes.

I wanted to give up, but suddenly I see a sweater where it says "TURTLE" on it. I remember. When I was hanging out with John, he often reminded me of how much he loves turtles.

I take the sweater and notice a keychain that is out of place.

It is also a turtle. I'm lucky today.

I go to the cashier and ask for a place to pack my gifts. The cashier shows me the place I quickly pack my gifts and goes out of the shop with James.

We leave until our dormitory. Before we separate to go to our dormitory, I ask him to come to a particular place, he declines my offer I insist and he finally accepts.

We have an appointment tomorrow.

"Bye Jaja," I say.

"Bye Ronnie,"

He says. I go back to my dormitory and put the presents on the table.

I sit on the couch.

"Aaron, what's that?" Asks Alex.
