* Thursday * * school *

Third POV eye

"So I'm going to form groups of two to revise but if I see that there's too much noise, it's individual work," Says Washington.

"Hercules with John,"

"Angelica with Marquis Lafayette,"

"James Reynold with Maria," Maria grimaces.

"Eliza with Samuel,"

"Charles with Peggy,"

"Alexander with Aaron,"

"Thomas with James Madison."

All people get along with their partner, except James who goes to the teacher.

"Sir, can I change my partner?" Asks James to the teacher. The professor sighs.

"Why? Something has happened between you? "Asks Mr. Washington. James grins and looks away.

"Uh...we came to blows," James says softly. The teacher is surprised.

"Are you telling me the truth?" Asks the teacher. James nods. The professor sighs.

"Okay. Say who you want to be with; we're late on the schedule, " Says Mr. Washington. James says the person and the teacher gets up.

"Then there are some last minute changes. I do not want any discussions. "

"James Madison with Aaron,"

"And Alexander with Thomas,"

Alexander POV

What??????

"But..."

"No discussion, Hamilton, we're pretty late like this!" Says Mr. Washington.

I'm grimacing.

James knows I do not like Jefferson, right? So why, he put me with him?

And in addition Thomas is his friend!

...

Maybe they quarreled.

I get up and murmur curses.

James will be with Aaron and me with Yuck.

I sit next to him. He's not looking at me, but he's staring at James...I do not know...his look is at the same time regret, sadness, anger and confusion.

"Thomas, we have to work on the paper," I say. He looks at me. His eyes are dark. He turns. I sigh.

"It's your problem, if you can not finish," I say.

I do my own sheet while Thomas does not let go of James.

James POV

"Thomas keeps looking at me," I whisper to Aaron. He turns to meet Thomas's gaze. After that, Thomas looks elsewhere. Aaron sighs.

"Ignore him," Aaron whispers. I nod and do what he told me to do. It was difficult, but I got used quickly.

* recreation *

I'm staying with Aaron to make sure Jefferson does not approach me.

Maria joins us. We start talking about everything and anything.

I'm lucky to have them.

Thomas POV

I am alone.
