Survival Of The Fittest [Jamilams]

The New Guy

~Peggy~

So me, Ang, and eliza had to carry the guys back to their dorm. Which was nearly impossible because Jefferson is taller than all of us, Alex kept disappearing somewhere in the crowd and john kept finding beer from no where.

I had to go over to wake them up in the morning even though I didnt want to. I open Alex's door first.

"Rise and shine jerkwads! Get up before I get Anglica-"

I nearly get hit by a pillow.

"Knock on the door next time!" Alex yells.

"Then lock the door! I'm not even gonna question why you're all in the same bed..."

"Get out already!"

"Geez, ok" I walk to the living room and wait. A few minutes later, alex, john and thomas walk out looking both dazed and tired.

~Alex~

"Speak none of this to anyone and you'll live" I growl while walking to the kitchen.

"Oh hey Alex, there's a New guy coming to the college" Peggy says.

"And you're telling me this why?" I take a sip of coffee.

"Because washington wants you to show them around"

"What? Why me? Theres at least 200 other people he could've asked"

"I dont know why. He just wants you to show them around" she says.

"Ugh fine. John and thomas are coming with me though. What's the guy's name?" I ask.

"James"

I took a quick shower and changed clothes before leaving.

We started walking to the main office when i could see who I'm assuming was james. He had dark hair that was a bit shorter than mine. He was wearing a light blue shirt and tan jacket and jeans.

I froze as soon as he turned around though.

"Alex? Whats up?" John asks.

"I know that guy... Thats... That's my brother" I said.

"What? There's no way. Didn't you say they were dead?"

"I said they could be. But I could recognize him anywhere. Thats my freaking brother!"

"You cant be serious, Alex" Jefferson scoffs. "He doesn't even look the same as you"

"Well we're not twins, dumbass. One, the beard is gone so say nothing about that. And two, shut up"

He shrugs before nodding.

"James Hamilton, get your ass over here!" I call. He looks up and smiles before running towards him. I pull james into a tight hug and nearly start crying.

"Oh my God I'm so glad youre, well, alive! I thought id never see you again!" I say.

"Same here, alex" he sighs.

"I still dont see the resemblance..." Jefferson scoffs.

"Hm, im looking around but I can't seem to find where i asked for your opinion"

"...rude, but Ok"

"Come on James! I gotta show you around"

~John~

Alex and james ran off somewhere in the college.

"Should we... Should we follow them?" I ask.

"Nah, they'll be fine" Jefferson says.

"You know, we keep saying that, and then something bad happens"

"Eh, i doubt it"

I shrug before we go back to our dorm. James seems nice so I doubt he'll get into much trouble. And he could probably help out if maria appears again.

A few minutes later, theres a knock at the door so i get up and open it.

I'm both confused and concerned when i see james and Alex. "Ok... How did both of you get so injured in 5 minutes?"

"Well you see..." Alex starts. "You know how siblings punch each other on their birthday a number of times depending on how old they are?"

"...yeah?"

"well... We havent seen each other since... What, wasn't i 17?"

"Yeah" James says.

"So he punched me 17 times for one year, 18 for another and 19 for now. You do the math. Then I hit him back for his birthday. Then i think Lee came into existence and we got in one big fight!"

"Remind me how you're even alive at this point?" I sigh.

"Because i cant seem to die! And, I don't know, magic?"
