Hamilton POV

I looked around the port for sign with my name on it. I scanned the crowd once more. I groaned and walked down the long plank of wood that connected the ship to the cobble port ground. Oh my god the suitcases were killing my arms.

I found a man in a blue jacket with the words 'Princeton college' printed on the back.
"A friend of mine told me you're the one to see?" I said while trying not to drop my suitcases and phone.
"Please let me help you" he laughed and held my heaviest suitcase. "Alex it's great to see you back in New York!"
"Ha! Not more happy am I to see you Aaron!" I laughed and slapped his back just light enough that he wouldn't fall.

"Mulligan and Lafayette will be amazed to introduce you to somebody new this year"
I typed away on my phone texting some friends I had made in the Caribbean back home.
"Shit. Sorry. What's her name?"
"Who said it was a girl?"

Fuck.

I'm so messed up, I think about my girl friends back home (friend zoned lol)

"Right. What's his name?"
"You'll see dumbass, you stay you 24/7 no difference than what you were in high school last year"
I could slap Burr as a friend as we did in 3rd grade (for those British: year 4) when he thought I was in a shitty mood.

We arrived at the college and Burr had me sign in to get my schedule for my lessons that I had chosen for the year:

English
Computing
Maths
Law practice
Debating club
Extra English tutoring after school
Fencing

Burr took the same as me as always. Some days I think we might go against each other and he'll kill me, I don't know. It's just a thought.

"Room 632" I said reading the paper.
"Wow, straight with the newbie from South Carolina" I looked at Burr who was doing the eye brow sway mocking me in being bisexual.

I slapped his shoulder a little too hard that it made him fall and drop the cases.

"Woah! Watch out" we looked up and saw a boy about the same age as me. He held my cases that he caught. His eyes were still surprised and owned pair of gorgeous green eyes. His hair bobbed around in his ponytail. I stood up and took my case.
"Sorry about that just Burr can't shut up" i explained as Burr got to his feet and picked up the other two cases.

He laughed and Burr said, "Laurens meet Hamilton. Hamilton, Laurens"

We just stood in the small hallway like children not knowing what game they should play. Laurens finished up the silence, "Laf and Mull are waiting for you Burr." He walked to the entrance of the dorm building and looked back. Laurens winked at me and left to go for a jog.

"Eh? How's he? Lovebird"
"Shut up, Burr" I laughed, "let's just get to my dorm room and see who my roomy is"

We panted like dogs going up the stairs for almost half an hour to get to the 6th floor. "Finally....we....made it!" Burr panted and but the baggage down.
"What the hell do you carry in these?"

Many things actually:

My laptop
Books
Clothes
Binders
My second laptop
Winter stuff

You know, the essentials

"Was that a rhetorical question?"
"Fuck you Hammy"
