Alex POV
It's 16:30, I walk over to Herc and John's dorm, the whole group is meeting up there for my birthday which I'm low-key dreading.

I open the door and the group cheers, "There he is!" Angelica yells, "Happy birthday my dude!" Herc says. I walk over to John and he hugs me, "Happy birthday baby." he says quietly. Peggy pulls me onto the couch, there's some homemade cupcakes and a few presents, "Open!" she yells handing me the biggest one, it was from all three of the sisters.

It was a new hoodie, we saw it on our day out before Christmas and I needed it. "Oh my God, thank you!" I say hugging her. Angelica and Eliza practically jump on me for hugs too. I open Lafs one next, it's a book that I've been trying to get my hands on for a few months now, it's called, 'The Life Story of Lin-Manuel Miranda'.

I look at him, "Merci mon ami." I say, "Aucun problème." he replies, "Enough French! Open mine!"

~time skip~

I honestly had so much fun. John is buying dinner so I told him to not get me a present. He probably did and is gonna give it to me tonight. I'm betting on it.

It was about six o'clock now and John and I were about to get ready to go out for dinner. The sisters were gonna go play 'Call Of Duty' in Angie and Pegs dorm and Laf and Herc were probably gonna go bone or something.

Before Laf left he said, "Tell him." and walked away.

I sighed and sat down, "John, I need to tell you something." I say. He looks worried and sits down next to me. "What's up?" he asks, "I lied again when I said I was 17. I turned 17 today." I say, he sighs, "Are you mad?" I ask scared for the answer.

"Mad? Are you kidding me? My boyfriend got into Collage at 16! I'm proud." he says and I sigh in relief. "That's not what you wanted to tell me is it?" he asks and I shake my head no.

"Okay so, I've never really been fond of my birthday because it's not really something to celebrate when you're living on the streets, but three years ago something really bad happened." I say, he looks worried.

"Three years ago today... I was raped." I say, he stares at me in shock, "Please explain."

~flash back~

I had just arrived in the city. I was a 13 year old bastard son wondering the streets of New York City alone. I had lost contact with my cousin Peter and I was wondering the streets without any sense of direction.

I stopped for a moment and sat down, gosh how did I get myself into this mess?

"Hey, are you okay?" I heard someone ask, I look up to see a little girl, around my age. She had tanned skin and dark curley hair she was wearing in a bun. She was wearing a long, yellow dress. Before I could speak, two more girls showed up. Both young but older the I was.

The one had caucasian skin and dark, straight hair and a blue dress, and the other was also tanned with long curley hair she had in a pony tail and a pink dress. They stopped to look at me, "Hello! I'm Eliza!" said the girl with the blue dress. "Alexander..." I replied.

"You're not from around here, are you? I can hear it in your voice." said the other girl in the pink dress. I shook my head. "Are you lost?" asked the yellow one, "I don't know New York very well... I've only been here for about a week." I say. "Where's are mom and dad?" Eliza asks, I look down, "I don't have a mom and dad, I've been living with my cousin but I got sent here... I lost contact with him a few days ago."

The pink one helps me up, "Angelica, but you can call me Angie." she says, "And I'm Margarita!" said the yellow one.

A man walked up to them, "There you are! What are you doing here?" he asks looking at the girls, he then sees me, "Whose this?" he asks. "This is Alexander. He's lost." Angelica says, "Lost? Where are you trying to get to?" the man asks me. "I actually don't really know. I lost contact with my family back home and now I'm stuck." I say. "Well, you can come along with us. We can help you." the man says.

So I went with them. They helped me reach St. Croix, I stayed in New York and enrolled in Princeton High School with the sisters. Mr. Schuyler treated me like a son. He tried to spoil me like he did with his daughters but I wouldn't let him.

I was at the school for a few months when I met the most charming boy. He was kind, smart and very good looking. His name was Thomas Jefferson. I developed a crush on him and was delighted to hear he felt the same way. We started dating, he was always so nice to me and he was a great kisser too!

Then, my 14th birthday came. I was pretty excited for once because I've never had a real birthday before. I got presents for the first time and things were going great! Then it all went downhill.

I went over to Thomas' house because he said he had a surprise for my birthday. I was expecting a present or dinner or something nice but instead I got something that changed my life forever.

He led me to his room and shoved me down on the bed, he climbed on top of me pinning my legs and arms down. "Uhh, Thomas!" I yell trying to shove him off me, he doesn't budge. I leans his head down and kisses my neck. I continue to struggle under his grasp as he begins to bite and suck leaving small hickies.

He pulls my shirt off and I try to yell for help but he stuffs a gag in my mouth and continues to pin me down as he starts tying me to the bed with rope.

Tears stream down my face as he pulls off my pants and underwear. He undresses himself too and... Well, you know where this goes.

I arrive back at the Schuylers mansion with a tear stained face and hickies mixed with bruises all over my body. The sisters were the only thing keeping me sane that night.

"Oh my God... I'm gonna kill him." John says getting up after I finish the story, I pull him back down, "No! Please." I say.

"Baby, I can't believe he did that to you!" he yells angry at the world and at Jefferson. I sigh. "That's why I'm so scared of sex." I say. He pulls me into a hug, "Are you kidding me? I would be terrified if something like that happened to me!" he says and kisses my cheek.

"Well, I'd better go get ready for our dinner. I'll meet you here in like ten minutes." I say getting up. "Yeah." he says.

I walk out the door and towards my dorm, before I could reach it someone pushes me into the wall, pining me at my arms and legs. "Hey there." Jefferson says quietly next to my ear.

I stay silent and in fear, he loosens his grip on my wrists and drops his hands to my waist. "Happy birthday beautiful." he says. He lifts his head so he's staring into my eyes.

"The last time we spent your birthday together was three years ago... Do you remember that day?" he asks as I hold back tears. He moves his hands to my ass and slips them down my pants. "You know, I had fun that night... We could do it again sometime." he says moving his hands around to the front.

Without even thinking I throw my hand forward into his stomach. He stumbles back and drops to his knees in pain making a loud thud.

The door right next to me opens and James Madison walks out. Tears stream down my face as I look at Jefferson on the floor.

"Oh God..." Madison says looking at me and then at Jefferson. "What did you do!" he yells at Jefferson angrily. He looks to me, "Are you alright Hamilton?" he asks, I nod my head and wipe my eyes. John comes running towards me, "Hey, are you okay?" he asks as I fling myself into his chest.

He looks at Jefferson on the floor. "Did you do that?" he asks Madison and he shakes his head. "Did you?" he asks me and I nod silently. He laughs, "That's it baby!" he says kissing the top of my head, "You finally punched that sick bastard!" I laugh a bit and so does Madison.

"I'm sorry for his behavior." Madison says dragging Jefferson into his dorm, I shake my head, "N-No, it's okay." I say. Madison nods his head and shuts the door. "Come, I'll take you to your dorm." John says walking with me to my dorm.

I finally socked Jefferson in the stomach... Man that felt good!
