1. "speak"

alex

alex sighed as he twisted his key into the lock of his dorm. he eventually got the door to open. he reluctantly stepped it.

"hey!" someone greeted. alex turned to see a boy with long raven black hair pulled into a bun.

alex smiled and waved. "im john, john laurens, who are you?" the boy- john- introduced himself.

alex bit his lip gently, thinking how he tell the boy his name. 'I'm alex' he mouthed.

laurens cocked his head to the side in confusion. alex sighed and looked around the room. he grabbed a small peice of paper and a pen. 'alexander hamilton, my name is alexander hamilton' he wrote and handed it to john.

"well nice to meet you, alex!" john smiled and shook alex's hand. "so, you shy or can't you talk?" alex showed two fingers. "Can't speak?" he nodded.

suddenly the door was slammed against the wall and a tall man walked in. alex paled.

This man was no other man, no, he was thomas jefferson. the thomas jefferson that had beat alex, and he just so happened to be his roomate. his eyes widened as he ran to his room. he locked the door and sat in the empty room. he closed his eyes and began to remember the horrible beatings he would get. he would beg his father to be homeschooled but he was always told no.

-flashback-

"answer me hamilton- oh wait you can't" jefferson mocked the small boy. he kicked him in the stomach and chuckled. tears rolled down alex's cheek as thomas picked him up. "stand." he ordered. alex did as told and stood. thomas punched him in the stomach. "now what should we do, pretty boy?" he asked, smirking. "I know.." he said. jefferson began to dig his nails into the boys arms. soon their was nothing behind the school but a crying alexander in a puddle of blood.

-end-

by this point alex was crying. a loud knock made alex jerk up. "alex?" Yelled john. alex thought for a moment before opening the door. "why'd you leave, you haven't met our other roomate- wait where you crying?" alex nodded. "come on" john wrapped his arm around alex.

as they made their room to the living room alex noticed a magenta coat on the coatrack. he sat next to john on the small couch. "thomas!" john called. after a few seconds jefferson walked into the room. alex scooted closer to john. Thomas took his seat across from them.

"This is alex he-" alex cut john off by covering the mans mouth. He sighed. 'I dont need to introduce myself to this man' he wrote. John nodded. "Alex, its been awhile hasn't it" alex looked up to see jefferson smirking. Alex scooted as close as he could be to john. Laurens looked down at the boy who was now practically on top of him.

thomas' expression softened. "Hamilton, I'm sorry.." John narrowed his eyes in confusion. "Im going to leave you to.." He muttered and stood. Thomas got up and sat next to Hamilton. Alex flinched away and mouthed, 'dont. Touch. Me.' Thomas sighed. "Alex, listen im sorry.. I swear,"

"I shouldn't have done those things to you, in reality I.. I was jealous of you, you had so many friends as i only had james Madison..." alex rolled his eyes. 'Sure' he mouthed.

"I understand if you never want to forgive me, I was you I wouldn't forgive me either..." Thomas said and stood. Alex was now alone in the living room. He got up and went to the kitchen.

"Hey, alex, you okay?" john asked. Alex nodded. "what do you want to eat? I have... No food.. But thomad brought over some macncheese, if you want some"

Alex shrugged and nodded. He went to grab the box but john pulled it away. "No I got it" Alex smiled gratefully. "Thanks" he mouthed. John smiled.

+-Later-+

Alex sat by john in his newly decorated room. 'Thanks for helping, john' he wrote in his notepad. "Your welcome Lexi" Lexi alex thought about the nickname. He smiled, no one had called him that except his mother. "do you want to watch something, like a movie?" John asked, motioning to Alex's TV. Alex nodded and grabbed the remote. He then turned on Netflix. "What do you want to watch?" John asked. Alex shrugged. 'you choose' he wrote and handed john the remote.

After about half of 'Moana' alex had fallen asleep on john. He and john was wrapped in a star-wars themed blanket with a bowl of popcorn in front of them. John looked down at the small man and hugged him. This made alexs head fall into johns lap.

the taller man stood, waking alex. 'where are you going?' Alex wrote. "i was going to shut off the movie because you fell asleep," John answered , smiling. 'can you.. Stay?' Alex wrote, flustered. john nodded and later back down. 'Thanks' alex mouthed and john nodded.

"goodnight Lexi" John said, hugging alex close. Yet there was no response for alex was already asleep.
