Chapter Two
The three sisters were walking when they bumped into Theodosia and Aaron. "Hey there, you two lovebirds," exclaimed Angie.
The two looked at them and blushed. "Shut up, Angie." Said Aaron.
All three sisters laughed and waved goodbye, continuing to walk past the crowd until reaching their home room.
Upon entering, they noticed the four loudest boys in school:
Lafayette
Hercules Mulligan
John Laurens
Alexander Hamilton
They noticed the sisters as well, and waved for them to sit next to them. The three sisters did, and Laf screamed, "My favorite girls!" Hercules eyed him. "Hey, I'm still gay, right?"
Everyone laughed. Just then, Alex noticed that Thomas Jefferson walked in with his friends James (both), Maria, Charles and Sam. "Ew." He said solemnly.
"Wha- oh." John mumbled.
"You know, you should really stop holding a grudge against my cousin," responded Lafayette as he looked in that direction.
Alex raised his brows. "Don't you hold one, too?"
"It's complicated."
Alex rolled his eyes. Peggy, on the other hand, mumbled, "Maria looks so cute."
Everyone turned their attention to her. "Aw, someone's dreamy today." John joked.
Peggy, practically drooling and blushing, yelled, "Look who's talking! The one that has a crush on his best friend."
John's eyes widened. Alex turned to him, but quickly looked away. Peggy only realized what she had said until now, and exclaimed, "Oh my god, I'm so sorry! I-"
"And I trusted you, Peggy." John's eyes were filling up with tears.
"Don't blame her. It happens." Alex said, forcing himself to blush. "I like you, too."
John smiled. "Really?"
"Yeah, don't worry about it." Actually, Alexander didn't have any feelings for john, but he knew that if he wouldn't say that, John would become awkward and not talk to him. He didn't want to ruin his friendship. Not to mention that John would be mad at Peggy and that it would ruin their friendship as well.

"Thomas? Thomas!" Jemmy called. Thomas snapped out of his trance. He was thinking about the upcoming test. What if any of his friends fail?
"Sorry. I zoned out." Thomas answered.
"I can see that."
"Hey, Thomas. Can you answer the question?" Asked James.
"What was that?"
"If you had to choose, would you marry Alex or Aaron?" Asked Maria.
"Um...why?"
Maria sighed. "We're just trying to distract ourselves from the test and relax."
Thomas nodded. He thought about the question. "Aaron. Definitely."
Everyone chuckled. "Why?" Asked Jemmy.
"I don't know. Maybe because Hamilton is my rival?" Thomas raised his brows.
Maria looked at the guards at the door. There were four, their bulletproof masks covering most of their facial features. "All I hope is that nothing goes wrong." She mumbled.

Both groups continued talking until the door opened and the teacher walked in with a laptop cart. The entire room fell silent as he organized the laptops on each of the students' desks.
Finally, Mr. Washington spoke up. "Good morning, class. As you may (and should) know, today is the big test. I hope you had a good night's sleep. You will have two hours to take the test. No talking. All grades are final. These questions are tough. But they are not meant to trick you. And no matter what happens today, I want to let every single one of you that I'm proud of all of you."
(Took that from the movie so almost that entire paragraph is not my words.)
He looked at his watch. After about twenty seconds, he said, "You may begin."
