Chapter 27
Alexander Pov
I awoke in a hospital. It was completely dark. My eyes adjusted after a minute and I saw a big window and a tv and an IV stand. I started to get up. I leaned on the IV stand as I walked out to the door. My whole body ached. I looked up and down the hallway, no one was there. Then I heard some doctors frantically shouting for more help and I saw them rush down the hallway, operating on a man. I closed my door and walked back to bed. To be honest I can't remember why I'm here. I'll probably remember in the morning.
I woke up again. It was now light outside. I saw Thomas in a chair at the front of the room, asleep. Oh yeah. Aaron Burr, Charles Lee and George King did this. Oh yeahhhh. Thanks guys, really feeling the love. They have no clue what it's like to go what I've gone through. All they know is that I'm not from around here. Aaron walked in. I rubbed my head and said "Why the fuck are you here?"
"I just wanted to say, I'm sorry. I'm going through some rough times and I took it out on you." He said.
"Did you rehearse that?" I asked.
"What?" He said, nervously.
"It's a simple yes or no question, Burr. And rough times? Come on now, you don't even know what a 'rough time' means. And never mind with my rehearse question because you obviously did, otherwise you wouldn't be staring at me with such utter shock. You see, I'm different from most people, you are different too, but I still can predict better then you can, Burr. I can still confuse people and talk quicker then you, Burr. I can still outsmart you despite my injuries, Burr." I said quickly.
"Sweet Jesus. Alright Hamilton you're a young man who probably doesn't understand what I'm struggling through and yes I'm fully aware of what a 'rough time' is Alexander. More aware then you are anyways. I can't deny your prodigy like behavior but you can't seem to admit the one thing you don't know how to do." He said. "Oh! And what's that?" I said without thinking.
"You don't know when to stop." And with that he walked out.
Thomas Pov
I woke up in a really stiff chair. My knuckles throbbed from beating up George and Charles. I saw Alex, who was fiddling with his hands while talking to Lafayette, John and Hercules. When did they get here? Whatever.
"....And we could all hang out at Johns dorm." Lafayette finished. Last time Alex hung out at Johns dorm.... No. Alex would never do that again. A nurse walked in and told Alex that he'd be able to leave in the next thirty minutes.

We all sat in a circle in Johns dorm. Why'd I agree to do this. I felt deja vu. The last time we played truth or dare Alex ended up....no. She's not even here. It doesn't matter. He loves me. I held his hand as we played. "Alex truth or dare?" John asked.
"Dare." Al said.
"I dare you to shave off your beard, stubble thing. I don't know what to call what you have goin' on there but I dare you to shave it off." John said. Alex grabbed his face. "No! Never! Do you know how long this took?" Alex asked. His friends snickered. "This is all I've got! Puberty didn't do me so well..." Alex said trailing off. I burst out laughing. "What? It's not funny!" Alex said.
"Oui, mon ami! Keep telling
yourself that! It's pretty ridiculous, yes? I want to see it shaved, no?" Lafayette said laughing. We dragged Alex to the bathroom and watched him shave off his beard. We laughed the whole time. Alex looked so disappointed the whole time. Which made us laugh harder. "Alex. With all due respect you look like a twelve year old." Herc said, giggling. "A twelve year old with a slightly dropped voice." John said.
"There's a reason why I kept the beard thing! If I didn't look like a twelve year old without it I would have shaved it off in the first place!" Alex said, waving his arms around in frustration.
I said "I'm sorry but Alex, baby, I cannot take you seriously." Al groaned and sat back in the circle.

My sisters and I heard that Alexander got out of the hospital, so we went to go see him. Peggy knocked on the door and we waited. We heard Lafayette scream in French and John laughing then John opened the door.
"Oh hey! Come in we have some surprises..." he said. Surprises? I walked in to see Laf wearing a dress, Herc with pants on his head and Jefferson wearing a hat. Alex turned around and I couldn't help but laugh. They made him shave! Jeez he just got out of the hospital and he's doing this.
