Currently crying over Connor Murphy.

Alex POV
"Lafayette?" Mr.Washington called out "Is Marquis De Lafayette here?"
We all looked around. I know I just saw Lafayette last period. I shrugged.
"Can I go to the bathroom?" I asked Mr.Washington.
"Sure." He replied with a smile.
I think Washington really likes me, like I'm his son or something. I ran out to the hallway and got my phone out.
Monsouir Hamilton: hey Laff where are you? You're missing 6th, is everything alright?
Ten minutes later. Still no response. So I texted Hercules and John who were having lunch. They said they haven't seen him the whole day, and that Maria was going to join them for lunch, but she never showed. Very suspicious. I hope everything's okay. I hope it doesn't have to do with Peggy or for the reason he ran to his room crying last week. What even happened?
Lafayette POV
What did I do? Why did I do this? I got up from the grey, fuzzy carpet in Maria's dorm. My head was pounding. I gave her a kiss goodbye as she laid on the carpet beside me. I got my hoodie on and left. I put my ear buds in and my hood up and walked towards the stairs. What do I do now? Where do I go? Do I go back to class? I heard my stomach rumble, I checked the time. It's lunch, thank god. My favorite time of the day. I stopped by my dorm and grabbed my bike and went to the nearest Starbucks. I went towards the stairwell and to the crazy streets of New York.My bike went over the bumpy streets and into all the potholes. Looking at all the traffic and people talking, smiling and arguing made me think. I got the Starbucks and saw John and Hercules throwing away their trash inside. I ran into a bush and hid. What do I do? They'll know I skipped class and they'll give me a lecture. That's all I need right now. I crouched behind the bush biting my nails, that's something I do when I'm nervous or stressed. My nails are so short from how this whole week has been going.
"AHA!" I screamed excitedly in my head.
I know exactly what to do. I looked around me and pulled my hair out of my bun and let my curls fall. I got out my camera on my phone.
"Perfect." I mumbled under my breath.
I stood up and rolled my bike to the bike rack. I kept my head high and strutted past them.
"Hey Jefferson." John waved.
"Bonjo-Hey" I replied back trying to hid my accent.
"Have you seen Lafayette?" John questioned.
I looked really guilty "Uhh no sorry." I smiled as I walked away.
"Okay then." Hercules said to John.
I walked in line wanting a croissant and a coffee, my curls still down. I turned around to see who was standing behind me. Uh oh.
"Hey, you look like me." Thomas said raising a eyebrow.
"What? No I think you look like me." I replied back.
He rolled his eyes and waved one hand as I mirrored him. He then kept testing to see if we were twins I think I'm his doppelgänger.
"Excuse me are you going to order?" The Starbucks employee questioned raising a eyebrow.
"Oh yeah, my apologies." I said to her walking towards the register putting my hair up"well see you next time twin!" I waved to Thomas.
I saw Thomas's mouth drop and he mumbled something in French. I think he said
"WHATTTT?" And gasped.
He then grinned, still confused and waved back, so cute. Wait did I just call myself cute? Or Thomas? Dang this is getting confusing.
I ordered my croissant and coffee and then waited.
"Is there a Lafayeet? A Lafa yeet?" The cashier called out.
"It's Lafayette" I corrected him.
"Oh sorry Lafayeet here's your coffee." He said handing it to me.
I rolled my eyes and thanked him. It's not the first time someone's messed up my name nor will it be the last (to those, like me, with "complicated" names). I ate my croissant and rode my bike back uptown to my next class. Luckily non of my close friends were in my next class, so I wouldn't get questioned. I rode back through the bumpy streets, the mobs of people all the way to my dorm. I put my bike away and turned around.
"Oh hello." Someone said from the couch stroking a cat-wait when did we get a cat?
It scared the shit out of me. I jumped at least 50 feet and my heart was pounding.
"So where have you been?"
