"Okay, okay. We all need to calm down." Alexander shouted over the screams and cries of the others. "Calm down. Alexander, do you know what is going on? How in the hell are we going to stay calm!" Angelica screamed at Alex. Eliza had comforted Maria as she cried freaking out over the situation. "Okay, but first we need to clean up this mess." John stated numbly, walking into the kitchen. Lafayette and Hercules followed in shock.

__________________________

Alexander, John, Lafayette, Hercules, Maria, and the Schuyler sisters arrive to their class of law. Sitting in the exact order as always. By Alphabetical order. Except the Schuyler sisters. They all sit next to each other. The entire class settled in their seats. George Washington entered the room and set his brief case on his desk. He opened the case and looked down picking up a packet of papers. The class looked around in a puzzled way and stared back quietly on the teacher. Washington walked over to the whiteboard and wrote "February." In big red letters. Putting the marker down Washington cleared his throat and began to talk. "Hamilton." He called. Alex looked around and gulped. Standing up slowly he stood up straight and stared at the teacher. "Do you know what this means?" Washington asked the anxious student. "It's black history month." Alex guessed shrugging his shoulders and fiddling with his thumbs. "Correct! You may sit down." The teacher said and the student obliged. "This means we are going to check and learn cases about slavery and segregation." He announced pulling out his list of names. He scanned the paper and spotted a name he wanted to call out. "Elizabeth Schuyler." The middle sister stood up with her back straight and her hands resting on her stomach. "What was the 1896 U.S. Supreme Court case upheld the constitutionality of segregation under the "separate but equal" doctrine?" He questioned giving Eliza time to think. "It was the Plessy verses Ferguson case." She answered and the teacher smiled and nodded his head. He allowed her to sit down and called upon a few other students.

Class ended shortly and the students went on with the rest of their day. The group of college students sat at their usual seat in the booth at the diner across from campus. Alexander was late as always and sat down by John. His major crush. "Helloooo, Alexander." John smiled patting his knee and wrapping his arm around Alexander's shoulder. "Finally we can eat now. I'm starving." Peggy muttered rubbing her stomach. The waitress who goes along the name of Theodosia came by and asked for their order. The crew order their food and went along to talk. "Monsieur Hamilton, How is the sexual tension between you and dear John?" Both Hamilton and Laurens cheeks fluster up causing John to remove his arm around Alexander's shoulders.  The two men fidget uncomfortably.

"Maria." Peggy whispers resting her hand on top of Maria's. "Yes Margarita." Maria replied lovingly, staring down at the love of her life. "When we all get back to the house can we just stay in and watch movies?" Peggy asked shyly, blushing as Maria wraps her left arm around Peggy. "Sì amore, always." Maria replied kissing Peggy's temple. "Awww, y'all are so cute. I'm jealous. Laf." Hercules tapped Lafayette's shoulder. "Yes, mon cher." Laf replies, "why can't we be like that?" He pointed over two Maria and Peggy. Laf leans in and whispers. "Would you rather cuddle or have amazing sex with me?" Sending chills down Hercules spine. "Alright enough with the flirting, y'all are making me feel lonely." Eliza sighed glancing at Alexander hopelessly. "I'm sorry, but you rejected Benedict Arnold. So shut up." Angelica snapped at Eliza's hopelessness. Theodosia came with their food order and everyone immediately became happier. Chowing down on their food happily and just bringing the entire diner in a happier mood. Once the crew finished eating, they all went back to their shared house. Everyone going back to their rooms.

"Hey Jacky." Alex said as he continued typing. "Yess Lexi." John replied enunciating every letter in the phrase. John sat behind Alex, legs on either side of the smaller man and John wrapped his arms around his small frame. John nuzzled his head in Alexander's neck. The stray hairs tickling Alex's neck. "Lets have a small Halloween gathering. Nothing too big but we can have a few other friends we know and we can dress up too." Alexander elaborated his thoughts whilst closing his computer. Alexander laid down and John was still holding Alex, now spooning him. Alexander turns around and faces John. The two of them seem to be dangerously close now. Close to the point where their lips are barely brushing against each other. That is until Lafayette opens the door as he is speaking gibberish. There was a very loud high-pitched scream.

The two boys sat up quickly and blushed madly. John got up and pulled Laf in. He slammed the door shut and locked it. "Lafayette." John hissed angrily holding his wrist. John sighed and lowered his voice.  "Can you stop cockblocking. I have tried to get with Alexander ever since I met him but I continue to get discouraged because of you. So please stop." John groaned looking back at Alex. He seemed to be typing away on his cellphone. "Oh I'm sorry mon ami. I'll stop. Just let me be the first you tell at least." Lafayette agreed removing John's hand and sighing deeply. "Yes, now please. Leave." John smiled sweetly. Laf was about to exit until his and John's cellphones buzzed in their pockets.

Ham: Meeting downstairs in five.

John and Laf looked at Alex and he had a devilish smile. Everyone went downstairs to meet with Alex and they all sat down on the couch. Although some had to sit on a lap. "Alright, here's the thing." Alex began. "Are you going to buy a whole bunch of pasta again cause I hate pasta now." Eliza interfered with Alexander's statement. "No my dear. I was going to say let's have a Halloween gathering. We invite a few of our friends and ya know. Party." Alex said clapping his hands and smiling. Everyone looked around and nodded. "Sounds good to me." Eliza said and the others agreed. "Halloween is tomorrow so we can start getting our costumes ready and plan for the party." Alex replied getting out his phone and the crew began to share their ideas.
