* (y/n) POV*

After my politics class I didn't have any other classes that day so I headed back to my dorm, Sometimes I really wish I had a roommate to becomes friends with. We could stay up talking and make fun of other students, and maybe he could envit me to a party. I've never been to a party before. I guess that's sad when you're a junior in college. But I don't think I would like to go to one alone, and I haven't made any friends. Well I think I kinda made a friend, His name is Thomas Jefferson. We've only hung out once but I think that can be considered a friend. He usually hang out with this Aaron burr and james madison. Why am I so pathetic. We hung out for like an hour and that's the closest thing I've gotten to a friend. I lost track of time and look at the clock to see it was 5 o'clock at night. At least I got done with the Essay from Politics class, God did I hate having to look up 'reason why gay marriage shouldn't be legal.' None of the points make sense, and I really hope I lose this debate. 

    After review the essay I stayed up all night typing away at my computer, Before I knew it, it was sunrise. I lazily got out of my bed and walked over to the bathroom mirror, I actually look like I'm dead. I splash my face with water and get ready for English 102. I put on my regular outfit, a plaid t-shirt, a beanie, and black pants. I make a pot of coffee and pour some into a canteen and head out the door. Wait I get to see Alex today. The thought of it alone made me smile. As I'm about to enter the class I see Thomas as he waves to me, I wave back as he aprocias me.

"Well well well look who the cat dragged in... no offense but you look pretty bad." Thomas spoke as he walked up to me with that devilish smile he always wore.

"Hehe yea I didn't get that much sleep last night." I reply adjust my backpack more onto my shoulder.

"Hey sleep is import, you need to get that beauty sleep. And trust me you could use it."Thomas joked around, at least I hope he was just joking around.

"Alright well I got to get to class, see you around Thomas." I speak starting to walk inside

"Yea see you later." Thomas replied with that smile, I don't like his smile. Something is very off about it, and him. But he's the only person who has actually talked to me beside Alex, I like Alex. He's nice.

I walk into class and see Alex in the front like always, eager to learn. I usually sit in the back because well, social anxiety, but maybe I should sit next to him. I mean no one else sits in the front and it might be nice to have some company for once. I start walking up to the front and have a seat next to Alex, once he feels my presence he looked over at me and smiled a big smile.

"Hey" he says with happiness dripping from his voice

"Hi, long time no see" I say jokingly as Hamilton chuckles slightly. Oh my god his laugh is beautiful, I never want to stop hearing it.

"Did you finish the essay from last class?" Alex asked

"You know it, and I can't believe she limited it to 6 pages. I tried to get rid of as many words as I could. I manage to squeeze it down to 6." I reply taking out the 6 page essay I had

"Yea! I completely agree, she lets you write about what you're passionate about  then sets such a small page limit, I had such a hard time shortening it down." Alex replied with pure excitement in his eyes, as he pulled out a 6 page essay, "So what subject did you chose?" Alex asked

"Umm it's.. The effects on kids when their parents aren't supportive of their sexualities" I reply fiddle with the paper, I hate to admit it but it's a hard subject for me to openly talk about, "And you?"

"The US constitution," Alex spoke proudly, I think he saw it was a hard subject for me so he strayed away from it. That's really nice.

"Well good morning students....blah blah learning junk.." The teacher spoke as she got the attention of everyone, class was slow but it really wasn't that bad. I couldn't help but stare at Hamilton as he stared at the board, he was so focused and just loved learning. I mean I love learning too but this guy is just non-stop.

As I was walking out the door I feel someone tap on my shoulder, I turn around to see Alex smiling at me, "Hey so I was wondering if you would like to go to a small get together with my friends and I?"

"Wait like a party?" I asked stunned that he would ask me, like me of all people.

"Well ya, its tomorrow at my friends house. Their dads like super rich so they have a whole house to themselves just off the campus. It start at around 9:30-10:00." Alex explained the details. Come on this is your chance to go to a party with friends, you have to do it at least once.

"Yea that would be amazing, thank you." I say calmly, yea good job that sounded cool.

"Alright what's your dorm room I'll come by and get you at 9." Alex asked as we started walking in a random direction as Alex pulled out his phone to write it down.

"It's room 17(76)" Alright see you tomorrow ;)" He replied winking as he walked away. Holy shit he winked at me. HE WINKED AT ME. with happy thoughts in my head I start walking back to my dorm to take a quick rest before my Law class. As I'm almost there I see t-jeff waiting outside.

"Oh there you are (y/n), I wanted to talk to you." He spoke with that sly smile as he got a little too close to me. I mean I am kinda tall but T-geff still has to look down at me because he's so tall.

"What about?" I reply casually trying not to sound like I'm freaking out. Because I am.

"Can we go inside?" he asked as I just nodded, I don't like the sound of that but I comply. We head up to my dorm as I sit down on my bed and he does the same a little too close to me again. He just has a bad aura about him.

"Well you see I was wondering if you would like to hang out with me tomorrow night, we could go to a bar and then maybe head back to one of our places.." He asked with such a husky tone in his voice as he set his hand on my thigh and oh so slowly moved it up. I don't like this situation.

"I would love to but I already got invited to a party Friday night, sorry." I speak as he started moving his hand back down my thigh

"Oh come on we could have a lot more fun~" He purred in my ear as it sent shivers down my spine, I don't like this one bit. Get out of this situation now. Just stand up and say you have Law and you have to go to that.

"Sorry they are my friends I can't cancel," I say standing up as I see Thomas's facial expression, I wouldn't say angry but definitely a hint of that, but also a little bit of sadness. But only for a second, "Any way maybe another time, I have to get to my Law class. I just stop by to get the book." I continue trying to break this awkwardness.

His face quickly changed into his usual sly smile and confident personality, "Yea definitely another time, you know where my dorm is. Stop by anytime if you want to hang out, or do other things... Well, see you around" Thomas spoke as he walked out the door of my dorm. What the fuck just happened. What the FuCk just happened. I don't even know how to process what happened. I just feel kinda gross, but I can't get his sad expression from my mind. It was only for a second but I recognize it. Mostly because I've seen myself with that expression. It was the expression of loneliness and hatred at yourself. But I don't get it, he has friends and people around him. Oh well just keep think about Alex, yea that makes me happy.
