First Glance. -Lams college fic (DISCONTINUED)

JUST TO CLARIFY: Lafayette is non-binary in this story. It goes with the plot ok

Laurens P.O.V.

      Me, Hercules, and Lafayette made our way to Laf and Herc's room. Laf was giggling for whatever reason, and me and Hercules were just looking at them. "Um... Herc, are they... drunk?" I ask Hercules.
"I'm... I'm not sure." He replies.
"How do you not know? They're your roommate?" I say.
Lafayette hangs their arm around my shoulders, now full on laughing. Hercules opens the door, and I drag Laf in. Herc walks them over to their bed. Lafayette falls asleep the second their head hits the pillow.
"Well then." I say.
"Geez, I never even saw them drink anything. That kid is magic." Hercules laughs.
"Yep." I laugh with him.
"So, when's your roommate arriving?" Herc asks. I check my watch.
"About five minutes." I say, getting up.
"I should go. Good luck with that." I say, motioning towards a drunk and passed out Lafayette. Hercules just nods.

       *Alexanders pov*
   I walk into my new dorm, almost knocking over a guy with curly light hair pulled into a ponytail. He has freckles covering his face, and gold specks in his eyes. He's tall as well, I come up to just above his shoulder.
"I'm so sorry!" I apologize. He chuckles.
"It's alright." He laughs, closing the door.
"I'm Laurens, John Laurens." He says, with an outstretched hand. I shake it and say,
"Hamilton. Alexander Hamilton."
He smiles.
"Would you like help getting set up?" He offers.
"No, I'm alright. I don't have much."
He smiles.
"Alright, but let me know if you need help." He says in that warm voice of his. I nod. I start unpacking my stuff. I put my laptop on my nightstand, and same with a few pencils and my journal that says    'A.Ham'    in gold letters. That journal means a lot to me. If someone ever got ahold of it... they'd know everything. Every. Single. Thing. About me. I throw a sheet, some pillows, and a blanket on my bed. My bed is right next to Laurens, and I see how messy his is. There's clutter on the nightstand, and the bed is unmade. I chuckle to myself. This is gonna be interesting. I sit on my bed,and turn on my laptop. Once it's loading, I go and pour myself some coffee. As I sit back on my bed the laptop lights up, and I start typing away.

   *Laurens pov*
       *before Alex came in.*
I burst into my dorm, and right after I close the door, it opens and a short guy with brown hair pulled back into a ponytail. He has shining brown eyes, and the cutest dimples. Eh..... I mean, what?
     "I'm so sorry!" He says, eyes wide. I laugh.
     "It's alright. I'm Laurens. John Laurens." I say with and outstretched hand.
     "Hamilton. Alexander Hamilton." He smiles, taking my hand.
    "Would you like help getting set up?" I ask, hoping to get to know this cute boy.
    "No, I'm alright. I don't have much."
He says, walking into the room. He stops when I say,
    "Alright, but let me know if you need help." I smile. He smiles back, nodding and walking in the room over to the extra bed. The only thing that separates the beds are two nightstands. I sigh and flop onto the couch. I text Layfayette and Hercules.

                 Ten minutes later
----------------------------------------------------
Hercules bursts into the room, carrying a half asleep Lafayette on his back. I laughed, as Hercules groaned. He set Lafayette onto the couch. Alexander walked out of our room, rubbing his eyes. Lafayette loudly snored, and Alexander jumped about three feet.
    "Wha...." he trails off. Hercules smirks.
    "Oh, so this is the Alexander I've heard about." Hercules smirks. I turn bright red.
     "Herc, don't even." I warn. He only smirks again. Everyone laughs except for me and Alexander. I walk over to him and say,
      "Sorry about him. We can leave if you want quiet..?" I offer.
       "No, it's alright. You guys should stay. It's not just my dorm." He whispers and smiles. I smile back, put my hand on his shoulder, and lead him over to Hercules and a waking Lafayette.
        "Alexan-" I start.
        "Alex is fine." He softly says.
        "Alex," I correct myself, "This," I say, motioning to Hercules, "Is Hercules Mulligan."
I point at Lafayette,
          "That's. Lafayette. They're hungover, so yeah. We're gonna be quiet because of them so, you'll be able to do whatever you want." I introduce.
          "Guys, this is Alexand-, Alex Hamilton, my new roommate." I smile.
Alex akwardly waves. Damn that's cute. I think. I shake away the thought. Yet I find myself think about Alexander.

I snap out of my thoughts to Hercules shaking me, and Lafayette laughing on the couch. Alex is nowhere to be seen. Hercules laughs.
            "Dude, you good?" He says, wiping away a tear from laughing to hard.
            "Um. Yeah. Where'd Alex go?"
I ask.
            "To the coffee shop. You zoned out for like, ten minutes." He says, checking his watch.
            "Oh." I say, watching as Lafayette laughs so hard they roll off the couch. Me and Hercules laugh, and help them back up.
"Thank you. Zhat was ze funniest thing I has ever seen." Lafayette says, laughing. We all sit on the couch and watch movies. I find myself think about Alexander again.

Damn it Alex. I silently promise to myself that I'll try not to fall in love with falling. But it's all because of that first glance.

And that's the first chapter! Who got that TØP reference that I threw in the last paragraph? This prolly sucks but whatever. Lol.
