i dont™ ~A Jamilton Story~

(heart) broken

Thomas P.O.V
After what seemed like forever, I finally walked out of that building with a stack of papers, and a smile on my face. Washington hired me to be the Executive Editor. He says its a really high position and that I should be thank full. Trust me.

I am.

He gave me these papers for me to edit and change to my disire. I could even trash them if I wanted to. Any paper I brought back the next day would be put in the website for the daily paper. People dont really read the news on paper anymore (Newspaper) so most of the interesting stuff would be online on their website. He could have just sent me the rough drafts of all the papers online, but I dont own a computer. I live with my mOm for gods sake. Once I get enough money, I'll make sure to get one.

I dont know why he hired me, nor why he put me at such a high position. Are people leaving him? Is he that despret for employees? I wonder why Alex sticks around..

Then I remember about his wedding. He needs money for it. He should just join another company. There must be more to it.

Me and Hamilton go way back.

It all started in 5 grade. He just came from the Carribean with his mother. He says his dad died... But I knew better. He stood in front of the class by Mrs. Stacy and told us about himself. His eyes glimmered with the sun coming in from the window. His hair that was long enough to touch his shoulders also shined. He held a smile on his face, but he looked like he was about to break down. I remember after class I accedentaly walked into him, making him fall. I tried to help him up, but he look me straight in the eye and grumbled.

"Asshat."

Then he got up and left. That made me sad. After that I stared calling him names. Making him upset. Purposely pushing him over because I thought it would make me stop loving him. It never did. I loved him. I loved him I loved him I loved him.

And I lost him.

I lost him.

And I still love him.

After years of this, we both graduated with high ranking honors. His GPA was a 4.7/5

Mine was a 4.6

I loved how smart he was. His smile when he got his graduation certificate made me smile from ear to ear. He made me so happy.

And he hated me.

After that we ended up going to the same college (Kings University) I tried to talk to him, but he always ignored me and went to hang out with his friends. One of them was Laurens. John Laurens. The man he fell in love with. The man that made him smile.

Im not that man. I dont make him smile.

I Dont make him happy.

I snap out of thought as I stare at my desk.

32 papers sitting in the middle of it. A pencil on the side. A highlighter and a red sharpie. I sat down at the table. I just.... Stared

Stared at nothing.

Thought of nothing.

Cried for everything.

I wiped my tears away and picked up the red sharpie.

I draw half of a heart on my wrist.

I can't bring myself to draw the other half. Someone took it.

That someone was Alexander .

I stayed up until 11 pm only to revive 13 papers. For each paper I had to read through the whole thing, look for spelling mistakes, false information, messed up sentences, and extra words to put into each sentence to make it better.
I ended up falling asleep after that.
