"THOMAS ANSWER YOUR FUCKING DOOR RIGHT NOW YOU PIECE OF SLIMY MACARONI SHI-"

"Laurens, stop banging on my door. I'll think of a homophobic insult about you and Alex banging on a door in a minute just give me some time" Jefferson smiled down at me when he opened the door. It was almost as if his voice was someone else. He looks kind and happy and he sounded like literal satan.

"You made me drink"

"It's a free country Henry. Oh, sorry, after you drank I mixed you and your father up!" Thomas laughed like he thought it was actually funny.

"You know I hate alcohol and you've seen how my dad treats me, do you feel at least a little remorse?" I folded my arms and stared at Jefferson who was towering over me. His large hair probably added on a good amount of centimetres.

"No, but I'm sure Hamilton feels remorse for becoming friends with you" He said smugly.

"Piss off you dick" I snarled back at him.

"How's Hamilton?"

"Why are you asking?"

"Why are you asking why I'm asking?"

"Shut up Jefferson"

"How's Hamilton?" Jefferson asked again.

"Why do you care?"

"I don't"

"But you do, tell me why"

"No"

"No?"

"No? Why do you ask no? Are you worried I like him because he's a douche I just want to know if he's dying because I can plan his funeral party"

"Jesus Christ" I muttered, this conversation was going nowhere but we were both too stubborn to end it.

"So, how's Hamilton?"

"WHY DO YOU CARE!?" I screamed, fed up with him.

"Oooooh protective boyfriend" Jefferson smirked and slammed the door in my face.

I walked back into my dorm, defeated, to see Alexander lying in bed, reading a large book. His eyes were glued to the page and his eyebrows were knotted together in concentration as he read.

"Alex, you want a drink from the coffee shop?" I asked, pulling on my jumper.

I got no reply but shrugged and assumed he'd want one anyway and went downstairs to get our coffees.

"Hey pegs, how you doing?" I asked when I saw Peggy ordering coffee in front of me.

"Are you and Alex dating?" She asked, out of the blue.

"Um, no" I replied and Peggy rolled her eyes and huffed.

"Honestly, you kissed, you both liked it. You both like each other, get a move on!" She sat down at a table and I followed after her, taking the seat opposite.
