enjoy...

"So where are you from?" Lafayette asks in his French accent. I shudder as I think of my family, Elizabeth, I miss her and Mom the most. They always cared about me. Elizabeth was my best friends. I really miss her. Lafayette must have noticed my sad expression because his fave softened and he said, "Do you miss your family?"

"Yeah, but only my sister and mother. My father can burn in Hell for all I care." I spat with venom in my voice.

"Do you want to talk about it?" He asked softly.

"Not really, no" I responded. Lafayette turned to me with understanding eyes. He wiped a tear that fell on my cheek. (dats gayyyy lol) I felt my heart jolt when he touched me. He grabbed my hand and looked me in the eye.

"Are you okay?" He asked me with kindness. I sucked up all of the strength I had.

"Yeah, I'm okay" I responded. He nodded and smiled at me. I felt my heart melt at this.

"Me and my friends are going to the bar later tonight. Do you want to, how you say, join us?" He asked me.

"I would love to" I told him more joyfully.

le time skip...

"You would never believe what I had to do to get here." Lafayette told me with a charming smile.

"Oh ya?" I wondered out loud. I started thinking of what I had to do to get here. How could his be any crazier?

"Oui!" He started. "They wouldn't allow me to go, so I had to disguise myself..." I really wanted to say 'me too' but that would blow my cover.

"What kind of disguise?"

He looked at me silently as if saying 'Just you wait.'

"A pregnant woman."

"Are you serious!?" I laughed so hard I cried.

"Oui! And it didn't even work! I got sent back, but tried again. I just went as an illegal stowaway"

"Oh my God!" We both laughed together. He peeked outside the tent.

"It's getting pretty dark. We should start meeting up with my friends" He stated.

"Okay" I stood up. "Show me the way!"

"Oui, follow me" He started to exit our shared tent. I then proceeded to follow him.

"Hey! Where are you going?" I asked while catching up.

"Je suis désolé. I didn't mean to leave you behind" He told me. (I am sorry)

"It's okay, you didn't mean to." I responded to his apology.

"Merci" He looked up. "Oh, we are almost there." He pointed to a lively tavern. I could hear the laughter of drunken men. I've never been to a bar before. I've never even had beer before. The only alcohol that I've ever had was expensive wine.

My feet led me to the bar without my mind even thinking.

"Hey Lafayette!" I hear a loud voice boom. I turn my head and see three men. My eyes flicker to the left. I see the small man that I saw earlier.

"Hey Laf!" I see a dark skinned man with a bandanna talk. "Who's the new guy?"

I was about to answer but someone beat me to it.

"Jackson Smith" The guy I talked to earlier started. "We met earlier, I forgot to introduce myself. I figured we would meet again. Alexander Hamilton."

"John Laurens" A guy with a bunch of freckles and curly hair tied back in a low ponytail said to me. I shook his hand.

"Hercules 'ladies' man' Mulligan" The guy with dark skin and a bandanna said to me. I saw Laurens and Hamilton roll their eyes. Lafayette just stifled out a laugh.

"Ladies man huh" I asked, trying not to burst out laughing.

"Yeah, I can sniff out a lady a mile away." He elbowed me in the arm as I sat down. "Especially the sexy ones.( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)" This caused me to laugh. I'm a girl and he can't even sniff me out, but that might actually be a good thing.

"What?" Herc started, smirking. "You don't think I can catch myself a lady?"

"Oh no, I'm sorry Mr. Ladies' man" I responded sarcastically. Lafayette started laughing.

"TU AS JUSTE UNE CHIENNE ROTIE!" Lafayette laughed out then dabbed. (YOU JUST GOT ROASTED BITCH) (im not sorry)

"English please!" Laurens yelled, then taking a shot. I just rolled my eyes. Hamilton did too. He must know french. Hercules looked just as confused as Laurens.

"Hey Smith!" I heard Laurens say. "Take a shot with us!" He handed me a shot glass filled with tequila. I eyed it suspiciously. I picked it up. I could smell it from there, it was strong.

"What?" Laurens smiled. "Never had tequila before?"

"Oh I have" I didn't want to look like a wet blanket. "I just haven't had it in awhile." He then eyed me suspiciously, then shrugged.

I shot my head back and poured it down my throat. It burned, but felt good at the same time.

"Man, it's been a long time since I did this with friends" I lied. I turned to Laurens, feeling confident in myself. "First one to down 10 shots has to pay for all 20?"

"Deal!" He called over the bartender. "But you should know that I'm the fastest at chugging at this table"

"Oui. He is, he has beaten all of us." Lafayette said with a worried expression.

"Well, he hasn't beat me" I raised an eyebrow. Hercules and Hamilton started lining up the shots.

"I love ya man(when did my name change to Hamilton?) but your about to lose a lot of money." Laurens said cockily.

"We'll see"

Hercules started, "1... 2... 3...! GO!!!"

I downed them as fast as I could. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6... It burned, but I kept going. 7, 8, 9. Just 1 more. "Ten!" I put the glass down to see Laurens still on his 8th.

"WHAT???" Laurens yelled.

"Wow!" Hamilton awed.

"Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn" Hercules crossed his arms.

Lafayette didn't say anything. He was just speechless. I heard Laurens mutter something along the lines of "At least I wasn't beaten by a girl."

The rest of the night was a blur. I blame the tequila.

wooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
