Chapter 3

Laurens is back at his dorm

Laurens POV
————————————————

"Laurens, I like you a lot..." Alexander whispers as he cups my face A/n yo Burr, check what we got, Mr. Lafayette hard rock like Lancelot, I think your pants look hot, Laurens I like you a lot. Ok, this is the last time, I promise.

I lean down to kiss him and-

I sit up in my bed fast, hyperventilating, soaked in sweat. I check the time, it says 7:00 a.m.

This is the time I'm actually supposed to get up for my classes, I usually wake up at like 8:00, rush my shower, and sprint to class.

I look down at my t-shirt which is now completely damp. How does this even happen? I wonder as I step into the shower.

After my shower, I grab some breakfast, and walk to class with a piece of toast in my mouth.

I run into Alex.

"H-hi..." I open my mouth and the bread falls to the ground

"Hey Laurens!" He smiles "Are you going to get your toast?"

"I guess I'll just leave it there for the birds." I look down at it

"Okay, well, what class do you have next?" He questions

"Oh, u-um I have study hall. I think. Maybe not." I pull out my phone and check my schedule "Yup, study hall..."

"Really? Did you just transfer, I don't remember seeing you in class." He furrows his eyebrows

I contemplate telling him the truth but I don't want to make him feel bad "Y-yeah, I did."

"Wanna walk to class together?" He asks cheerily

"O-okay." I respond blushing

Alexander POV
—————————

I ask him if he wants to walk to class with me and he says yes. And. He. Blushes.

Oh my god he's so cute, his freckles are basically glowing.

We start walking and I notice he has his hands in his pockets and he's concentrating on his feet again.

"You should look up when you're walking, it makes you appear more confident and well, attractive." I laugh

"Oh," he glances at me, blushing again "thanks."

"Oh, sorry was that mean? I didn't mean to be mean!" I put my hand on his arm

Laurens POV
————————

He touches my arm and I flinch.

*smack* "You're worthless John, you're never going to amount to anything. I should never have gotten with your slut of a mother" his dad sneers

He grabs my arm and throws me into my room.

"Oh, sorry for touching you.. I didn't mean to scare you." He apologizes

"Oh no, it's fine, I just didn't expect it." I give him a small smile

We get to class and the first person we see is Thomas Jefferson. Oh dear lord.

I walk in and start towards my usual seat in the back when Alex asks if I want to sit with him. I tell him yes and we walk over to the first row. Why does Alex need to be smarter than people? Why must we sit next to Thomas and Aaron and Madison?
