Hamilton OneShots

A Textbook ~ Mullette

(Lafayette's POV)

I was in math class, waiting for the goddamn lecture to be over, like jeez, how much does one person need to say? Anyway, I was looking through the textbook because I am trash at math and I needed to study. Before I knew it, the bell rang and everyone rushed out the door, I gathered what appeared to be all my stuff before walking out the door.

"See you tomorrow Mr. Adams!" I shouted.

I got to my locker and put my stuff away, luckily I had no homework so I didn't need to bring anything home. One glance out the window and I saw it was snowing. Shit, I left my jacket at home... Oh well. Gently I opened the door and walked out into the brisk December air. 

"Only two days till winter break!" I said to myself.

Once I got home, I searched the kitchen for food. Mr. Washington wasn't home yet, so I was on my own for now. The reason I live with Mr. Washington is because my parents died and he took me in. God it seems like so long ago, I was twelve at the time, now I'm seventeen...

~The Next Day~

I raced through the school to my math class because I realized I had left my textbook there. Goddamn idiot... Anyway, I couldn't find it so I shamefully walked to English class. Thankfully, today and tomorrow were only half-days, so I would only have English, History, Gym, and French. Yay, my favorite classes.

Thanully, English and History were over quick, I was excited for Gym, until I saw we were playing dodge ball. Shit... I can't dodge anything, let alone balls that are being thrown by aggressive teenagers. Not even ten seconds in and a ball hit me square in the face.

"Sorry, I was aiming for Hamilton!" Thomas' southern accent drawled.

I regained my composure and picked up a ball I searched the other side of the gym for a target. My eyes landed on the boy who was doubled over coughing, James Madison. I waited for him to stop coughing because I'm not a complete ass, then I threw the ball. It hit him square in the chest and Thomas looked at him for two seconds before rushing over, somehow dodging everything being thrown at him. Once he was sure James was okay, he grabbed a ball and looked at me with a death glare. My eyes widened in fear and Thomas fucking shot the ball at me. I was expecting a hit, but someone jumped in front of me, taking the full blow. I watched the boy hit the ground and stand up because he was now out. I chuckled a bit because he sat right next to Madison on the bench and the two were identical.

After gym class, I went to find the boy who saved me from an otherwise painful experience. I saw him briefly as we walked out of French class. Once again I had forgotten my jacket, so I walked home in a tank top and sweatpants.

~The Last Day Before Winter Break~

Finally, the last day had come and I still had no idea where the hell my textbook was. I profusely apologized to James for hitting him in dodge ball, and he thanked me before walking to his class with Thomas. Gym class rolled around again and Mr. Louis XVI changed the teams up a bit. Last time it was: Alexander, Laurens, the boy who saved me, myself, Peggy, Eliza, and some other students. The other side consisted of: Thomas, James, Aaron, Samuel, Angelica, Charles Lee, and some other students. Today however, he did this: Myself, Thomas, Angelica, Charles Lee, Laurens, and Seabury. The other team was: Alexander, the boy who saved me, Peggy, Eliza, Burr, and James. The game began, and instantly, I was hit by one of Peggy's overly hard hits.

I sat on the bench and watched the rest of the game. Thomas hit Alexander, Peggy hit Charles Lee and Samuel with one ball, Laurens got James, Angelica got Peggy somehow, only to be hit by the boy who saved me. Thomas hit Burr, Eliza hit Laurens, Thomas got Eliza, and it was down to Thomas, and the boy who saved me.

"GODDAMMIT MULLIGAN!" Thomas shrieked as he was hit by the ball the boy threw.

After the class, we had our final French class and after that we were free. I went to my locker and saw a note in it.

Meet me at the back of the school ;) -H.M

Odd, I never get noticed, let alone notes. I walked to the back of the school and saw the boy from dodge ball leaning against the wall.

"Oui? You wanted to see me?" I asked nervously.

"Yeah, hi, God this is awkward, anyway, I found your textbook." He said.

God, he looked so beautiful with the snow falling gently on his hair, he looked at me with sweet eyes before frowning.

"You aren't wearing a jacket?"

"Non, I forgot it at home..." I admitted.

"Here." He said as he put his jacket around me.

"Merci, I uh, don't think I caught your name..." I said.

"Oh, right, where are my manners, I'm Hercules Mulligan. Most people call me by my last name, but you're cute, so please, call me Herc. Wait, did I say that out loud?" He froze.

"Oui, you did." I said blushing slightly. Still shivering, even with the jacket, I pulled my arms closer to my chest.

"Oh, you're cold. Ummm, I know It's awkward, but do you maybe want to come over?" He asked shyly.

"Sure, I mean, you still have my textbook."

"Great! C'mon, I live not to far away!" He said. It was now where I noticed the Irish accent he had.

Once we got to his house, I was greeted by a warm rush of air.

"Here's your textbook," he said as he handed it to me, our hands brushed briefly which sent shivers down my spine, and a radiant glow of fuchsia on my face. He looked in my eyes and I saw a sparkle that made him way cuter than he already was.

"Oh, thanks."

"No problem uhhh..."

"Lafayette, but call me Laf. Your cute enough for that." I snickered. 

He chuckled softly before glancing down at my lips. I knew what he wanted, so I gingerly stood on my toes and pressed my lips against his. Thankfully he kissed back and we broke apart for a moment before he brought me into a more intense kiss.

(A/N: Okay, I'm gonna cut that off there before they get 'intimate'. Also, sorry I haven't posted in a while, I've been dealing with some family issues. Hopefully I can get some more stories out before the 30th. I go to Seattle then, I'll try to update, but I'm having writers block and I need suggestions. Thank for reading, BAI!!!!)
