Time period: present 

Hamilton age: 16

Washington age: 43

Context: Hamilton has an internship and works for George Washington. He sometimes uses slang that confuses George. Part 2 to the first chapter I ever actually published on this.

Washingmachine's pov:

Working with teenagers means a lot of things, but one thing it definitely means is that nothing is ever dull. Things are always interesting around here when you have 16 and 17 year olds trying to work. Key word trying. Someone, not naming names *cough Charles Lee cough cough* destroyed the coffee machine, so now everyone is running on Starbucks or no coffee at all. Today's meeting should be... interesting. 

Alexander's pov: 

I don't exactly have the money for Starbucks for me AND Mr Washington, so I am now spending all my energy on getting other people what should be MY coffee. Whatever. I hurried into my boss's office and just handed him his coffee without saying anything.  I know I'm supposed to be polite, but that energy was already used on walking into that office in the first place. 

I went to my office and starting checking my emails. One from Burr, challenging me to some fight after work or something. Pussy. Come say it to my face. Some random stuff from John, something about finding "the right person for yourself", and how "sometimes they're right in front of you" or something. I can never tell with that guy. Finally I found the important emails. I message from Mr Washington...about the coffee machine. Never mind. 

4 hours later:

Apparently all interns had to go to the conference room for something about a promotion? I don't know, John got me coffee (My favorite kind) but it hadn't exactly hit my system yet so I'm still half dead. Yay. 

I went to the conference room and yep, all the interns were there, just talking about stuff while we waited for Washington to get in here. How is he late to every meeting when it's his meeting? Who even knows. 

Washington's pov: 

I arrived at my meeting a little bit later than later because I'll be honest, they're probably going to be later than earlier. They're all teenagers, except for Charles Lee. He's three years older than me and somehow is worse than my youngest teenager, Lafayette. Lafayette is 15 and is a better intern than the 46 year old. I don't get it. But when I got there, everyone was there. Everyone except one man. I'll leave it at that.

I called the meeting to order and just went on without Lee. He's a grown ass man for god's sake. Finally about ten minutes in he showed up, looking like a mess. I just rolled my eyes and kept talking. I'll deal with him later. 

"Okay, so we have a new client and we need to impress them next Tuesday. That's pretty much the main point I'm trying to get across here. Alexander, meet me in my office and we can talk about what you'll say." I finished. Thomas Jefferson looked pretty mad. "Excuse me sir, but why does Hamilton get to do the first big presentation? I've been here longer, you know. I'm better at my job simply because I have more experience." I sighed. This should be fun. "Thomas, we can discuss this later-" "Uh first off, Jefferson, you're wrong. Second of all, I'm just better than you in general. That's just facts." "Okay stop capping. At least I don't need my boyfriend to buy me coffee every day. I can afford my own coffee." "Oh go back to Ohio, JeFfErSoN" "Guys-" I tried to calm down the situation, but trust me, once those two get started, I most likely have to rip them off each other. (Don't even think about it you guys I can already see those comments)

Hamilton pov:

I hate Jefferson! I hate him so much! He doesn't need to embarrass me like this in front of everyone! Well it's war. 

"Jefferson, you're just some goofy Ohio looking ass. Go away." I snapped. "Oh really? You can't even walk ten feet with taking an L!" He yelled back. "Wow, can't even come up with something original?" "Says the one who made an Ohio joke!" "Well I'm sorry my jokes are about as basic as your stupid face!" That was the last straw for Mr Washington. "Both of you, in my office, now!" We both nodded as we walked out of the conference room. Right before we left, we heard John Adams mumble "Can't even have a meeting in Ohio."  "Shut up John!" We both said at the same time. No one freaking likes that guy I swear. 

We sat down inside Mr Washington's office and just watched each other for a minute. " We are both so fired aren't we?" I laughed through the tears in my eyes. I can't lose this.  "Yeah- hey look don't worry about it,  everyone gets fired from some jobs eventually. You can't work here your whole life, right?" I flared my nostrils at him before finally just telling him. Who cares, my ass is gonna get fired and we'll never see each other again anyways. "No Jefferson. I needed this. I was working to eventually get a job and pay for my mom's medicine and hospital bills. If I get fired from this because I yelled at you, no one will hire me and my mother will... you know." I definitely saw something change in his eyes. "Oh... dude I had no idea... look man if I had known, I wouldn't constantly try to sabotage your job here... I definitely took this too far. I'll talk to Washington about this." "No... I don't know why you work but you shouldn't lose your job either." "Well then what do we do?" "Just blame it on the coffee machine being broken?" I suggested. "Yeah no. We'll figure it out." "Hey Jefferson... why do you work? You're wearing $3000 jeans from Italy." 

Before he could reply, Mr Washington walked in. How fun. "Boys. What is happening? I should fire you both!" We both looked at each other nervously. "But I won't. But please, just because you don't like someone doesn't mean you get to fight them. And that goes for both of you. For the rest of your lives, you'll be working with people you don't like. Now, before I let you get to work, will someone please explain the Ohio jokes?"  "Just google it sir." We laughed as we lefties office. "W boss I gotta say." Thomas said. "For real."
