*Laurens POV

I woke up to the sound of typing and a spilitting headache that followed it. Groaning, I rolled over to the side of my bed, though I had no idea how I got there. Come to think of it, I couldn't even remember last night, probabky since this was a hangover. I kept still on the bed, hoping it would calm my stomach before... too late. I rushed to the toilet and got there just as I started throqing up. In between my retching, I heard the typing stop and then I felt a hand on my back. "It's ok." The voice sounded oddly comforting, and I let whoever this was help me back to my room once I finished. "Man, that sure is one heck of a hangover." The person, who I now realized was my roommate, said, his brown eyes still on me nervously. I nodded, not trusting my voice for a first impression. "Random question, do you remember last night?" He said and I shook my head, now deeming this an apropiate time to talk. "I can never remember anything once I gt drunk. Anyway, we haven't properly introduces each other yet. I'm John Laurens." A faint part of me wanted to continue and say in the place to be, giving my funny introduction, but this time I wanted it to seem formal. Well, as Formal as you can after the guy's just seen you throw up from a hangover. "Alexander Hamilton. Pleasure to meet you." H-Alex said, putting on a bit of a posh accent. "the pleasure is all mine good sir." I said formally and we looked at each other for a second before bursting out laughing. At then I knew I had just gotten the best roommate ever.

*~*

"Never have I ever been to South Carolina." Alex said and I put up my last finger, bursting out of the game of Never have I Ever with Alex. Damn, the kid had done nothing and only had three fingers up, though that was to be expected since he had grown up in Caribbean. Alex laughed as I clutched my chest since he had said you lose.

We were on the second round of Never Have I Ever when someone knocked on our door. It was Saturday afternoon so that wasn't unusual, though Alex treated it like it was the weirdest thing ever and jumped up from the couch. I laughed and went to answer the door, not that surprised to see Herc and Lafayette there. They would make the cutest couple, even though they were oblivious to the others love for them. "Hey mon ami, we brought you guys some cupcakes." Lafayette said and my mouth might've watered a bit, but only because Lafayette made the best cupcakes in france. "And we wanted to meet the new kid." Hercules whispered so only Lafayette and I could hear. Alex came up and the three exchanged pleasantries, though it was rather obvious that he had little social skill. "So, what classes are you guys taking?" Hercules said and thus began the American tradition of trading classes to see if we all had stuff together. It turned out we had two classes entirely together, debate and advanced US history. They were both taught by a new contemporary teacher, Mr. Washington. I also learned that Alex was the smartest of us, having advanced writing and French class, the latter with Lafayette.

"afin, vous avez l'écrase ou des intérêts?" Lafayette said as I huffed in annoyance. Of course they would talk like this. Alex blushed scarlet at the question and nodded. "Je pourrais avoir un peu d'intérêt à Laurens, même s'il était vraiment ivre quand je l'ai rencontré." Alex said and I heard my name. "Why did you say my name?" I asked and Alex blushed even more when Lafayette looked at him suggestively. "n-nothing, I was just asking him if we should talk in English." Alex said and I nodded. "I agree with Alex. Let's stick to the language we all know." Hercules said and we all sat down on the couch.

"So Lafayette, how did registration go?" I asked, trying to start up an conversation. Lafayette sighed before starting to talk. "regristration was terrible. The agency tried to, how you say, rearrange my dorm. That didn't work otherwise I wouldn't be here and be on the other side." Lafayette said and Alex looked at him, his handsome, cocoa eyes questioning. "But the other side is the-"

"Let's watch a movie." Her said and we nodded. We got that new movie a dog's purpose and about halfway, me and Herc we're comforting alex and Laf respectively as they cried about the dog dying again. I tried to keep the blush off my face when we settled in a cuddling position, I mean, Alex probably doesn't know what he's doing and doesn't think this is an intamite gesture.

*Alex's pov

Why did the dog have to die so many times? I asked myself before cuddling into Laurens , hoping he couldn't see the blush forming on my cheeks. I knew what I was doing, but it just seemed so right. Ok, so maybe I had a crush on him, but he probably is dating Lafayette or Hercules. We watched the rest of the movie like that, snuggled up against each other.
