ELLA POV

I sat down waiting for science to start, it was one of my favorite classes until this year. This is my only class that none of my friends are in and to make it worse Hamilton McIdiot is in it.

"Alright class this week we will be doing a project with partners" Mr. Harold said.

Ugh I hate partner work, no one does the work but me.

"I'll be choosing them" Mr. Harold continued. "When I say your name go with your partner and grab a sheet on the front table. Do that the paper says. First..." He stopped to look at the paper which I'm guessing had the pairings on it. "Eleanor and Philip"

"What?!" I heard Philip yell from the back of the class.

"Mr. Hamilton, yelling was not a part if my instructions."

I rolled my eyes, stood up, grabbed a paper off the front table and sat next to Philip.

"Hamilton."

"Jefferson."

"So I was thinking I'll do what I usually do in group projects and do it myself so you don't mess anything up!" I fake smiled and glared at Philip as I said that.

"Oh no no no, you're too young to be here to I'll do it and you can sit there" Philip smirked and glared back.

"I HAVE BETTER GRADES THAN YOUR ASS!" I screamed in his face, furiously.

"I DONT CARE!" He screamed back.

"Well I guess if we both want it do it all" I sighed "we'll have to work together, it's the only way to get a good grade."

Philip huffed then said "I guess you're right"

"Oh and," I stared Philip in the eyes while whispering, "if I get a bad grade because of you... you'll regret it"

~TIME SKIP TO AFTER SCHOOL~

I walked into my house and my dad quickly came to greet me.

"Hi Ellie! How was school baby?" My dad asked.

"Fine I guess" I grumbled a bit.

"What happened? Was it the mini Alexander again because I swear-" I laughed at my dad.

"I have to work with him on a project" My face crumbled in disgust.

"That sucks. Me and Hamilton are both working today so I could take you to the office and you two could work on it"

"That'll work, I'll make sure he's coming"

I started walking up to my room and packing my laptop and papers to work on the project. I sighed and picked up my phone.

"Hey Theo..." I said over the phone.

"Hey Ella, what's up?" Theo responded.

I sighed. "Can you text me Philip's phone number?" I know she'd have it. Theo loves talking to people so she has most of the school's phone numbers.

"Ooohhh why?" Theo teased me and I felt a slight blush creep on my face, although I didn't like it.

"Theo. We have to work together on a project and our parents have work tonight so I thought we can go and work too. Trust me if given the choice, I'd never ask for his phone number"

"Sureeee. I'll text it now. I'll see you tomorrow"

"Thanks, see you tomorrow" I hung up and quickly received a phone number from Theo.

I sighed and called it.

"Hello?" The voice from the other line said.

"Is this Philip Hamilton?" I asked trying not to sound like I want to kill him, even if I do.

"Yes? Who is this?"

"Ella." I stated blankly.

"JEFFERSON?! HOW DID YOU GET MY NUMBER AND WHY ARE YOU CALLING ME?!"

"One, I got your number from theo, who else? Two, both our dads have work so I was thinking we could go with them and work on the project at their office."

"Fine. I'll talk to my dad."

PHILIP POV

I grumbled as I walked downstairs to talk to my dad.

"Pa?"

"Yes son?"

"Can I come to work with you tonight?"

"Why?"

"Well I'm working on a big project with Eleanor Jefferson-" I got cut off.

"JEFFERSON!?" My dad screamed.

"I know, let me continue. Basically she wants to work on it together while you guys are at work tonight. In the office."

"Fine. Just remember"

"The Jeffersons are worthless assholes that we shouldn't like" I finished my dad's sentence with him.

"Good."

"ALEXANDER HAMILTON WHY ARE YOU TEACHING MY SON THAT LANGUAGE?!" Mom screamed.

"Oh shit I didn't know your mother was home" my dad whispered.

"AND PHILIP HAMILTON YOU KNOW BETTER"

She walked in and smacked me and dad in the back of the head.

Mom pointed to me. "Bad child."
She them pointed to dad. "Bad husband."

"You two are lucky the boys are outside because I don't need them talking like you two." She walked out of the room.

"Ma scares me sometimes." I said to my dad.

"You mother scares me a lot." My dad awkwardly laughs.

I saw Angie laughing out of the corner of my eye. Dad went to his office and I walked towards my sister.

"You know, maybe the Jeffersons aren't as bad as you make them out to be." Angie laughed and I glared at her.

"How would you know?"

"Ella's little sister, Mary, is in my class"

"Wow. I don't really care, Eleanor Jefferson is the worst and nothing can change that" I groaned at the thought of thinking she wasn't the worst.

"Suit yourself" Angie shrugged then started giggling. "But why are you like obsessed with her?"

"WHAT?! I AM NOT!!!" I yell as my cheeks get dusted with pink.

"Sureee" Angie mocks as I storm out of the room.

I get upstairs and text Jefferson back.

Pip: Im coming later

StupidJefferson: Ok see you Idiot

ELLA POV

"Wow Eleanor Jefferson having a somewhat normal and nice conversation with Philip Hamilton. I'm shocked." I hear a voice say behind me.

I turned to see Mary standing in the doorway laughing.

"Well you just don't know how awful the Hamiltons are... Except Eliza, I like her and don't know why she married Alexander." I grumble.

"Actually I do know a Hamilton, Philip's sister, Angelica, is in my class and is really nice." She stuck her tongue out at me.

"You're lucky I won't tell dad you said that" I snicker and notice a slight blush on Mary's cheeks. I wonder... no.

~TIME SKIP TO WHEN THEY GET TO THE OFFICE~

"Hamilton." I snarled as we walk to the door.

"Jefferson." Philip shot me a glare.

We walked in and I immediately greet the President.

"Hello Mr. Washington." I smile.

"Hi Mr. Washington." Philip glared at me again, I knew he wanted to greet him first.

"Kids, I've told you, call me George." Washington laughed.

"Ok George!" I laughed a little.

"George, is there a room we can work in?" Philip asked.

"Yes kids, you fathers can show you where that room is, tell them to come to my office when they're done." 

"Kids follow us" Mr. Hamilton said walking down the hall while glaring at my dad.

"Coming Pa!" Philip yelled and I followed after him.

"This room here" my dad said pointing to a room. "If you need anything all of us will be in that room there" he said pointing to another room.

"Thanks dad" I hugged him, walked into the room then turned around. " Oh and Mr. Washington wants you two to meet him in his office."

"Thanks Ellie" My dad ruffled my hair and walked out.

Philip walked into the room and Alexander said "Bye Pip, see you later."

"Bye Pa" Philip replied.

I started getting out my computer and papers. Philip started to do the same. One of his papers blew over to me and I picked it up and handed it to him.

"You dropped this"

"Thanks Ellie" Philip mocked, taking the paper.

"Do. Not. Mock. My. Father."

He shrugged and I forced myself to sit down and get to work.
