Alex shot Jefferson a glare. John slowly got off him and Alex cleared his throat. "Um...n-no need to assume things, everyone! This is just a.....a.....an Old Navy Commercial! Yeah! Old Navy Underwear! Doesn't rip even if you fall through the roof!"

John nudged him with his elbow. "Dude! Shut up! You sound stupid!" he whisper yelled. Alex just smirked, an idea popping in his head.

"Buy a pair of rainbow boxers, and get a Hello Kitty Diary for fr-" John covered Alex's mouth. He grabbed Alex by he ear and dragged him through the dark hallways to the dorm. When they got there John closed the door behind him.

As Alex went to get something from his room, he noticed blood on Alex's back. "Alex....y-you're bleeding...bad...."

Alex stopped and turned to John. "I'm fine."

"No you're not. Lay down on the couch." Alex did as he said, honestly being in too much pain to argue. John went to the kitchen and got some candles so they could see and some medical supplies. John lit the candles and cleaned the blood off Alex.

"I don't get it...." John murmured.

"What?"

"You're such an ass all the time...if you hate me so much then why did you save me?"

Alex stayed quiet for a bit. "I don't know....I guess....I guess I just didn't want you to get hurt...."

John put an ice pack on Alex's head. As he did so, he started to notice how well the candle light reflected in Alex's golden brown eyes. They were honestly quite beautiful. John felt his cheeks warm up and caught himself staring.

'.....shit,' John thought. ' No no no. You are not falling for him!'

Alex smirked when he caught John staring. "See something you like, princess?"

John scoffed, "Shut up. Do you want warm tea or something?"

"I wouldn't mind. Maybe you could give me some extra sugar for that tea~"

John felt himself actually blush this time, though he pretended to be ticked off and marched into the kitchen. He made two cups of tea and gave one to Alex, sitting beside him.

They both sipped at the tea, not saying much. That is until Alex mumbled something quietly.

"What did you say?"

"I said I'm sorry....okay?"

John was actually in shock. Alexander Hamilton, the one who once set off fireworks in school, just apologized.

"Listen...I know I seem like a jackass, but I have a lot going on...."

Even though it was dark, John could actually see tears in his eyes. He got a fluffy blanket and wrapped it around them.

"Lets talk."
