John's POV

   I sit on my bed, waiting for Alex to get back. God I feel like his mother. I hear footsteps thinking it must've been Burr or Seabury, but my dorm door opens.

   "Oh hey!" Alex said enthusiastically.

   "Hey." I mutter a little and I sit up on my bed. God looking how the light hits Alex is so perfect. "Stay there. Do not move." Alex stops in his tracks as I pull out my phone and take a picture. He chuckles a little. "Sorry. So what happened with you and Eliza?" I asked trying not to sound soar about it.

   He explains in deep details about how they met,where they met, how she is, how much he adores her. I felt happy for him but...

Alexander's POV

   I sit on my bed telling John about all of what happened today he was smiling at first but then frowned and then looked away like he was getting distracted. I stop talking about Eliza for a second.

   "How was your day John?" I ask he looks like he came back into focus. "Your day, how was it?" I asked intimidatingly because he wasn't listening.

   "Fine. Burr,Thomas,James, and Samuel messed with me all day." He said. Hearing how bad of a day he had even though he tried to put it off like it was nothing made me so sad.

"Sorry to heat that. So you hung out with Laf and Herc today. What'd you guys talk about?" I ask he looked like he was looking for an excuse.

"Nothing really we just hung out and brought up random topics." I looked at him in disbelief he didn't notice because he was fiddling with his phone.

"Like what?" I ask curiosity hitting me.

"School was one topic" he said I knew he wouldn't go any further but I just gave up.

John sat up quickly still fidgeting with his phone I look at him but he starts mumbling no OVER and over again.

"What? What is it? What's wrong?" He looks up at me he looks like he's about to tell me a lie.

"My dads gonna be visiting again." He said.

"That's not so bad." I say.

"This is gonna sound really rude, but could you not be here while he's hear? He kind of does this thing and..." his voice trails off, but I nod.

"What's so bad about your dad you didn't tell me yesterday plus he was here like a week ago. Clingy much?" I say. I'm frustrated. John won't do anything against his father. I care for him. I want him to be alright and from what he tells or the little that I know I hate his dad.

   "Alex calm down. Please?" He says. His please is what makes me weak what makes me nod my head that I won't be here. John thanks me and then we go to bed.

   Why do I care so much. I'm dating Eliza I can't like John. Plus there's no way John likes me. I lay in my bed KNOWING I won't be able to sleep. I look over at John noticing him sleep. I wish I could tell him. I wish he could tell me something. I wish he could love me. I wish I was his but I'm Eliza's. It's hours before I fall asleep before I was alone with my thoughts about John and how wrong it was. I eventually did fall asleep but not before I had to tell myself that I loved John Laurens.
