College. The thing where brain cells go to die as they try to latch onto every bit of information possible. For Hamilton it was a place to hang out with his friends, perhaps meet some love interests and start afresh.

"Yo Alex!" He heard his old friend Hercules Mulligan shout as he ran over with the Schuyler sisters.
"The Schuyler Sisters!"
"Alexander!" Angelica hugged Hamilton tightly.
"Hi."
"It's good to see your face."
"Any idea who you guys are dorming with?"
"Brah!" Herc started with his signature phrase. "I was hoping you and Burr but he's got some new guys called Thomas and James."
"Damn. I was hoping we'd all together. What about you lovely ladies?"

"Er un peu."
"FANTASTIQUE!"

It was in this moment Alexander decided that this was going to be a long year.

Both Mulligan and Hamilton ended up adapting to Lafayette rather well (even if he did like Alexander's rival Thomas), plus he brought about some interesting conversations and he made Seabury scream for the Lord above when he caught Seabird attempting to deface Alex's locker.
Yes, it was safe to say the trio were extremely close, however, Alex could tell there was something off with Laf as of late. He'd always lose focus in class and always seemed to be focused on writing something in French but wouldn't let Alexander see... So eventually Hamilton got fed up and stole it from Lafayette's room.
