~alex's POV~

"James!?"

My brother ran over to me and gave me a big hug.

"ALEX OMG I THOUGHT I WOULD NEVER SEE YOU AGAIN!"

"I thought so too!"

We caught each other up on what was happening in our lives.

It turns out that he had finished college a few years ago and wanted to tour the country. New York was his last stop.

I told him about my life, my friends, college, and all that stuff.

"So you got any crushes?" my brother said as he elbowed me in the ribs.

"What the heck, James!" I responded and looked down but I couldn't hide the blush that was slowly creeping up on my face. James gave a small squeel.

"My little brother has a cruuush!!" he swooned like a teenager. "Who? who? who?"

I blushed even harder and told him. It was Thomas Jefferson. Yup. I still hated his guts but not as much. Recently, I caught myself staring at him when he was looking. I wasnt even sure why I liked him. Maybe it was his smile or his Southern drawl. Or maybe it was his hair. Seriously, it was the most poofiest (is that a word?) thing Alex had ever seen.

They made their way to Alex's dorm.

"Damn, I missed you so much, James. You dont even know," I told him when we got to my dorm.

"Me too," James replied with a chuckle. He threw himself on the couch and said, "Where are your roommates?"

"Out getting drunk with a few of our friends."

"So why arent you with them?" he questioned me.

"Had to finish an essay" I responded as I brought out some chips from the kitchen.

"Thats my hardworking bro!" he joked and I rolled my eyes.

"I usually go, but I decided not to." I shrugged. "And I'm glad I made that decision."

Eventually, we fell asleep on the couch watching Harry Potter.

It was 3 in the morning when my friends decided it would be a good time to go home.

The busted down the door and came in all at once.

"HEYY ALEX WE'RE JUST GONNA CRASH HERE TONIGHT!" I heard John drunkenly say as he stumbled in with the rest of the group.

"Im guessing these are your friends?" James said and raised his eyebrows. He watched as Madison and Peggy raced over to the kitchen screaming for ice cream.

I sighed and looked at my wasted friends. I was pretty glad they were my friends. They definitely made my life more... interesting.

I noticed Burr looking at James and back at me. I could tell he had drank a little but not too much. Figures, he was always the cautious type.

As my other friends walked around the dorm doing drunk stuff, Burr walked over to me and James.

"Alexander, whos this?"

"James Hamilton! Alex's brother," James introduced himself and held out a hand to shake. He was a little groggy from being woken up at 3 in the morning.

Burr took it and introduced himself.

"Didnt know you had a brother Alex." Burr said.

"Well, you do now!" I got up and started to take out blankets for everyone to sleep on. Burr and James kept talking and laughing together.

I convinced Herc and Laf (Theyre soulmates) to sleep in my room for the night cause no one wanted to see them making out. Drunk or not.

After half an hour, I finally convinced everyone to go to sleep. I threw myself back on to the couch next to James and sighed. He was a deep sleeper, so he didnt wake up.

It was good to have him back.
