Graduation
Time skip a year to their Senior graduation
Alex's POV
I smoothed out my gown as John placed my cap on my head. He smiled and draped my hair over my shoulders before resting his head on it.
"You look lovely Alex. I can't believe we're graduating." I turned around and kissed him before straddling him.
"I know. Look at where we are. Look at where we started. Two years ago we were Juniors and had just began dating. Now I'm proud to be able to say that you're my boyfriend of two years and counting. I love you so much John."
"I love you too Alex. Now you need to put your Valedictorian speech in your gown so you don't forget." I nodded and slipped the cards into a pocket inside my gown and put my sash on.
The whole Squad had decorated our caps to our liking. Laf made his a French, American, and gay flag while Herc had bunch of clothing on his. John painted a gay flag on his and I decided to do mine the bi flag and painted 'I am not throwing away my shot' over it. The Schuyler's respectively painted theirs to their colors. Angie being pink, Eliza being blue, and Peggy being yellow. Maria also painted hers, it was solid red.
"Let's go find George. It's showtime." I took a deep breath and we left our now empty dorm. We had moved into John's house a few days ago and came back to say goodbye to the dorm.
After walking across campus on last time, we got to George's classroom.
"Son, your mom and I are so proud of you. John, we are proud of you too. Bring it in!" We had a long group hug before Martha came rushing in and ushering us out to the field where the ceremony was being held.
We listened to all the names be called until my name was called. "Ladies and gentlemen, your valedictorian, Alexander Hamilton." I rose from my seat and made my way to the stage. I pulled the note cards out and questioned all of life. Aftetr taking a deep breath, I spoke.
"It is with great honor and pleasure that I am able to stand on this stage and give this speech. Over the course of the two years I was present at King's I changed. People say outsiders don't fit in anywhere. I say that's false. I am an orphan immigrant from the Carribean whose ship caught on fire on the way here. I earned a full ride scholarship here. I am a flaming bisexual and am proud of it. Within two if being here at King's, I had a bunch of friends and a boyfriend. What I'm trying to say is, college has made of difference of who I am. I'm very grateful to have my parents here and my boyfriend, John, and my friends standing alongside me as we graduate. To King's!" I walked off the stage back to John and George took my now empty spot.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the King's College graduates!" We all cheered and threw our caps in the air as John and I kissed. I smiled into his kiss and held him tighter.
George and Martha had put together an after party for all of us. We drove to their house and you could see our friends everywhere. Laf and Herc were once again, making out, this time on a bench in the Washington's garden. John and I laughed and walked into the house. Martha caught our attention and ran toward us, immediately throwing her arms around me.
"Alex! I'm so glad you and John showed up! George is in the parlor. Oh! Let me show you your room!" She led us upstairs to a fully furnished room. The walls were a light blue color and a dark stained wood bed sat against a wall.
"Mom, I think that bed is far too tall! I will have to jump to get on to it." I ran and jump on the bed and was marveled at the comfort level. "Is it memory foam?!" Mom nodded and laughed at my way of getting on it.
"You boys can stay here tonight. Lafayette and Hercules are. Just be quiet if you have to...you know." John and I both blushed and ushered my mom out of the room.
We laughed once she was out of earshot and laid on the bed.
"We're totally fucking tonight right?" John was laying on top of me, playing with pieces of my hair.
"Duh." We laughed again but he cut us off by lightly kissing me. I happily returned the action and he pulled away shortly after.
"I love you so much Alex."
"I love you too John. So sex now?"
"Way to ruin the moment Lex! Later, let's go join the fun!" He dragged me down the stairs much to my dismay.
That night was hectic. George and Martha eventually forced us to either go home or go to our room(mainly applying to John, Laf, Herc, and I). John and I walked into my room and once again, I jumped on the bed. He climbed in next to me and began taking my clothes off. I smirked and let him do his thing.
