I could not believe what I had just heard. I stumbled up the stairs to my dorm, leaving my sisters behind. I was still trying to process the news. Me and Hamilton? Roommates? You have got to be kidding me.

I slid the key into the lock, and swung the door open. It was a two bedroom apartment on the third floor of the complex. I picked the closest room to the door and threw my suitcases inside. I wondered when Hamilton would be here. I hope he found his way alright. Wait, why did I care so much? It's not like we were friends. Then, someone walked into the kitchen.

AH
I had arrived at King's college and I was astonished! It was pretty amazing to say the least. I found the front desk where I received my dorm room key and schedule. Yes! My first class of the day was debate! I was super excited to see everyone and meet my roommate.

I opened the door to my room and sat my things on the bare table. My roommate wasn't here yet so I started to unpack until I heard the door open and someone sigh. I walked into the main open area to meet my new roommate. I was ecstatic until I met the eyes of the last person I expected to be standing in this dorm, Thomas Jefferson. My breath hitched in my throat as I looked into the eyes of my high school bully.

"Hello, Jefferson." I said slowly.

"Hello, Hamilton. Long time, no see?" He nervously chuckled. That sound sent chills down my spine. The last time I heard that laugh was when I was being beat to the pulp by James Madison. It made me cringe.

"Listen, I hope our past differences will not effect our current situation. At least, I won't let it," He muttered that last part. "And once again I would like to apologize for my actions over the last year. I'm sorry for everything I've done. And although I cannot speak for Madison," he spat his name with disgust, "I am sorry for allowing him to cause you such pain."

I cannot believe I am saying this but I actually felt bad for the French bastard.
"Thank you for that, Jefferson."
He spoke up once more, "Please, call me Thomas." He said blushing. Wow, he really has changed.
"Alright then. And by the way, you can call me Alexander." He smiled at the sound of my name. I was really happy that we weren't on different sides anymore. I hoped that we could hopefully become friends in the near future.

He actually accepted my apology. I really did feel awful about what I did to him. Maybe this whole roommate thing would actually work out. I was even shocked when he wanted me to call him Alexander. I guess he wanted to forgive and forget as well. Although, I know everything won't be forgiven all at once. It would take time. After all, it was four years of our lives. I waltzed back into my room and began to unpack. I looked at my schedule. First class tomorrow would be debate with Professor Washington. I pulled my bright magenta bedspread over the plain bed, and set my books on the table. It had been a long day so I laid on the bed and closed my eyes, dozing off to sleep.

AH
I was going to forgive Jeffer- Thomas. Mostly because he really wasn't the one who was bullying me. That was Madison's doing. I went to go check in on him to see if he needed help unpacking, when I noticed him already asleep. God, it was 4 pm, what is his problem? He looked cold so I pulled the silky duvet over him. Seriously, bright purple? "Goodnight." I whispered before shutting the door, leaving him in the dark.
